Inspect leakage paths around bin, cyclone and exhaust seals. Prices in this lineup run from $79.99 for the TechRise Cordless Vacuum Cleaner up to $399.00 for the Shark PowerDetect Clean & Empty Cordless Stick Vacuum, so the extra cost should map to a feature you will actually use.

Document washable versus replaceable filter requirements and cost. The Shark Cordless Vacuum Cleaner - Blue - IZ363HT has the largest review base in this lineup at 16,738 ratings, giving it the most real owner feedback to check before buying.
