About This Vacuum
The Shark IZ862H Stratos is a cordless stick vacuum with a Clean Sense IQ infrared sensor that detects hidden debris and automatically boosts suction power by up to 50% for better pickup. A visual indicator shows when floors are clean. The HyperVelocity Plus motor delivers Shark's most powerful cordless suction. The DuoClean PowerFins HairPro system uses dual brushrolls to handle both carpets and hard floors. A self-cleaning brushroll prevents hair wrap-up, making this Shark's best cordless option for hair pickup. The MultiFLEX wand bends to reach under furniture or folds flat for storage. An LED display shows battery level, suction settings, and Clean Sense IQ status. The removable battery charges anywhere and runs up to 60 minutes in ECO mode. HEPA filtration with Anti-Allergen Complete Seal captures 99.9% of particles down to 0.3 microns. At 8.9 lb, it weighs more than ultra-light models but delivers stronger suction and advanced sensors. Runtime drops in higher power modes, and extended cleaning sessions require more arm strength than lighter alternatives.
