I will never own anything other then a shark vacuum and like the other two i've owned, this one is awesome!
Price
We bought an oreck xl 2610hh floor vacuum in 2001, i think we paid ~$600 for it at the time.

It came in a generic cardboard box, and there were zero instructions included or warranty papers.
Competitiveness
Shark seems to be marketing this vacuum for those with pets, as there are multiple references to pet hair.
