The Shark US - Shark Cordless Stratos with Clean Sense IQ - Cordless Vacuum is just wow. I was in need of a cordless stick vacuum and I hit the jackpot when I got this. It has great suction, meaning it picks up everything. I also like the IQ sense adjusting the power when it needs too (more dust or dirt) I was also pleasantly surprised when I noticed it reclines flat to allow you to go under just about anything.  I would recommend it to my family and friends.
