The Shark Rotator Lift-Away Upright with DuoClean Vacuum is a vacuum that I am very impressed with. It goes from carpet to my laminate floor with ease and cleans both thoroughly both types of flooring. This particular vacuum is great for picking up pet hair and states that it cleans the rotator itself. I have found that this is a great factor and uses "fins" instead of bristles. I also like that I can lift the pod away from the vacuum and it has a handy handle for me to use on small jobs as furniture and stairways without the extra weight and awkwardness of using the entire vacuum. Just a winning vacuum with great suction!
