The BISSELL Adapt Ion Pet is a better vacuum for cleaning pet hair than the Shark APEX Upright Vacuum. The BISSELL has no problem picking up pet hair from any surface type, and it can be reconfigured into a smaller, lightweight handheld vacuum for cleaning harder-to-reach places. It’s easier to maintain and has virtually no recurring costs. It also has an unlimited range, and its maneuverability is better too. That said, the Shark is better if you clean up a lot of non-pet hair debris, especially as it has a better overall performance on all surface types when compared to the BISSELL. Some users may even prefer its corded design as it means you don’t have to worry about battery life. Unlike the BISSELL, it also comes with a turbo brush.
