I bought the one in this deal a few weeks ago which was $199, so I'm rebuying as this saves me $40 plus the I have a 20% cashback offer with CapOne so this post is saving me about $85.
Vacuum is solid if you want an upright with the versatility to convert to a canister style. I vacuumed with my old Dyson DC33 and then vacuumed with this afterwards and it picked up alot of dust, so it does a very good job.
A few notes:
- The vacuum will sort of run away from you on carpet when using because the rollers are powerful
- It's pretty heavy
- It isn't the most stable and I could see it tipping over

Some people have mentioned the powerfins needing to be replaced after a year or so, still seems to be fine on my Vertex. Definitely has worn down quite a bit, but there's still some fins left and I haven't noticed much of any difference. My only comparison is to a Dyson Ball Animal, so I don't know how it compares to the newest Dyson vacuums. In any case, the suction was much stronger than the Dyson Ball Animal and it picked up fur on the carpet much better than the Dyson.
Avoid getting socks or sock like material sucked into the vacuum, it's a pita to get it out. Also you will need a right angle pick to clean the bottom of the rollers, there will be a lot of hair stuck right behind the rollers, it will make pushing the vacuum more of a chore when that happens. The other complaint is that the flex tube is rather short and does not extend a lot especially in the lift away mode, where the canister by itself is not very heavy so it doesn't balance very well. You pretty much have to carry the canister with you since stretching the flex tube requires quite a bit of force. The flex tube extension is much better thought out on the Dyson than the Shark.
For this price, it's a fantastic vacuum.
Price history graphs are a better indicator of a deal.

Edit: This is what I'm referring to since it's a little hard to explain: https://youtu.be/wuMYN3bDKtA?si=

Update: I would buy again at this point. Honestly considering a second one for a different floor.
