Shark Vertex Pro vs Bissell CrossWave HydroSteam Plus: Which Multi-Surface Cleaner Reigns Supreme?

Choosing between the Shark Vertex Pro and the Bissell CrossWave HydroSteam Plus comes down to what kind of cleaning experience you want. Both are designed to tackle pet hair and multi-surface floors including carpets and hard floors, fulfilling the needs of active households with pets. 

However, they differ fundamentally in power source, design, and specialized functions. The Shark boasts a cordless stick vacuum form factor with an impressive HEPA13 filtration system and is built for extended cordless use. The Bissell opts for a corded upright model combining vacuuming with steam mopping versatility, ideal for sealed hard floors and area rugs.

Unpacking the Shark Vertex Pro's Advanced Cleaning Arsenal

The Shark Vertex Pro shines as a modern, powerful stick vacuum crafted for hands-free maneuverability and deep cleaning. Its cordless lithium-ion battery offers up to 60 minutes of runtime, making it ideal for large spaces without being tethered to an outlet. Notably, the battery is swappable, allowing uninterrupted cleaning sessions. The vacuum's 1340W motor is highly efficient, complemented by a high airflow and excellent suction to attack fine dust and pet hair with remarkable effectiveness.

The filtration stands as one of the Vertex Pro's biggest triumphs. Its HEPA13 multi-stage filtration traps allergens and microscopic dust with anti-allergen sealing, making it a top choice for allergy sufferers. Practical treats such as LED headlights illuminate hidden debris, while the adjustable handle and lightweight 8.8-pound design provide excellent ergonomics and easy handling around tight corners. The button-release dustbin simplifies maintenance, encouraging regular cleaning to maintain peak performance.

Bissell CrossWave HydroSteam Plus: A Wet-Dry Cleaning Workhorse with Steam Power

The Bissell CrossWave HydroSteam Plus caters to users needing powerful wet and dry cleaning in an upright corded unit. While it carries a slightly lower 1300W motor compared to the Shark, its unique selling proposition is the integrated steam mop functionality, allowing simultaneous vacuuming and steam cleaning on sealed hard floors and delicate surfaces like area rugs.

Weighing in at 12.5 pounds, the Bissell is heavier and less nimble but still provides solid cleaning performance on carpets and bare floors. It uses a washable standard filter that lacks HEPA filtration but is still practical for dust and larger debris. As a corded vacuum, its runtime is unlimited but constrained by a 25-foot power cord, limiting reach and portability. The upright form factor offers classic controls with mode selection buttons for user convenience but lacks advanced features like adjustable handles or smart sensors.

Quick Take

The Shark Vertex Pro excels in cordless freedom, advanced HEPA13 filtration, and excellent maneuverability; perfect for deep cleans in pet-friendly and allergy-prone homes. Meanwhile, the Bissell CrossWave HydroSteam Plus impresses with its wet-dry vacuuming combined with steam mop technology, a savvy choice for sealed floor surfaces requiring thorough cleaning at a budget-friendly price.

Bottom Line: Which Vacuum Wins?

If you want a versatile, lightweight, and high-performance vacuum that excels on carpets and hard surfaces with superior allergen control and cordless convenience, the Shark Vertex Pro stands out as the superior pick. On the other hand, for users prioritizing a multi-functional corded device that efficiently handles wet and dry messes along with steam sanitizing, the Bissell CrossWave HydroSteam Plus delivers excellent value and specialized cleaning capabilities at a much lower price.

Verdict

  • Winner: Shark Vertex Pro - Best for advanced cordless cleaning, superior HEPA filtration, pet hair efficiency, and enhanced user comfort.
  • Runner-up: Bissell CrossWave HydroSteam Plus - Ideal for budget-conscious consumers wanting a corded vacuum with wet-dry and steam mop versatility.
