I live in Denver and do a lot of small woodworking projects in my garage, plus we have two shedding dogs that bring hair and dust into the house. I’ve been looking at the Shark PowerDetect Pet Plus cordless stick vacuum, model IP3253, mainly because the pet attachment and cordless format seem convenient for quick cleanups between bigger jobs. The thing I’m unsure about is whether a cordless stick vacuum can really handle fine sawdust without clogging the filter constantly, and whether battery life holds up for a full pass through a garage and a couple of rooms. I’ve only read general product info online, not tried it myself. Does anyone here use a cordless stick vacuum in a similar mixed pet hair and workshop dust situation? I’d appreciate hearing what actually works for you.
