Like most machines, the shark is an upright but I would say still worthy

Are there any uprights which don't have a powered brush head? Even ancient
Hoovers had. It beats as is sweeps as it cleans...

You could be right. Vacuums have not been my specialist subject until
recently when my wife could no longer use one and I've become vacuumer
in chief.
The shark has separate motors for suction and brush if that makes a
difference. It also allows the suction unit to be removed and used with
tube and passive brush for stairs etc
