Hoover React Or Shark Rocket DuoClean – 2 Lightweight Corded Vacuums

Hoover and Shark are two very different vacuum cleaner companies with very different histories. Hoover is one of the mainstay brands with a long history of building vacuums for both professionals and homeowners (over 100 years). Shark on the other hand has not been around as long and their main focus is on residential cleaners that are full of innovation but low on price. Their company got popular through word of mouth mostly but today they are one of the best selling brands because they solve the cleaning needs that others simply do not.

It’s no surprise that their respective lightweight corded vacuums, the React and Rocket DuoClean are so different but both are excellent choices depending on your needs. To find out exactly what those are, we have a side by side comparison here. Read on to learn more.

Shark APEX Powered Lift-Away – It’s Compact But Is It Capable?

The Shark APEX Speed is a lighter and more compact vacuum than the full sized uprights in their lineup. It’s designed to provide the cleaning ability of the larger models combined with easier maneuverability, making it ideal for smaller homes or tight spaces. Even though it is on the lighter side it sill comes with some of the features that have made Shark the most innovative brand today like DuoClean, Lift-Away, and Active Glide (more on those in a bit). While it is on the pricier side of their lineup there are many reasons for that. Let’s take a look at what this vacuum has to offer to see if it is indeed one of the best compact vacuums you can find today.

Before we start it’s important to mention if you aren’t familiar with Shark that while they haven’t been around as long as other brands they have quickly become one of the main players in the residential vacuum cleaner industry. They started in the late 1990’s under the SharkNinja brand with a focus on cutting edge technology. You will see some unique features in their vacuums that aren’t found on others but they have built a good reputation for quality as well. You can read more about their story by clicking here.
