- The nv752 does not have a Zero-M Self cleaning brush roll.
- The NV752 usually comes with a larger variety of accessories.
These features enable the vacuum to have better cleaning performance. An added plus is the AZ1002 also comes with a larger variety of cleaning accessories.
What is Duo Clean Technology
Duo clean technology allows for efficient cleaning on all floor types.
The dual brush roll allows the vacuum to pick up large particles, small particles and stuck-on dust that you would usually find on hardwood floors.
The bristle brush is ideal for cleaning carpets and the soft brush roll pulls in larger particles and work on floors to provide a more polished look.
The Shark nv752 does not have this feature.
What is Zero M Cleaning Brush Roll
Most of us are familiar with the problem, of hair wrapping around the brush-roll of our vacuums and having to manually remove the hair.
Shark has alleviated this problem with the Zero M self-cleaning brush-roll. As their slogan says “we remove the hair wrapped around the brush roll so you don’t have to”.
The self-cleaning brush roll has a series of protrusions that constantly remove hair from the brush roll as you vacuum.
Detailed Comparison of the Features
- Cleaning Performance (Winner AZ1002) - The addition of Duo clean technology and Zero M self-cleaning brush roll has been a game changer for Shark.
This ensures that their vacuum has more versatility on various cleaning surfaces. The Shark AZ1002 performs equally well on hardwood floors, high pile carpets and low pile carpets.
If you have the pets or have to clean up long hair the Zero M self-cleaning brush roll is a game changer. You no longer have to manually remove hair that wraps around the brush roll when vacuuming.
- Weight & Dimensions (Tie) - Both of these vacuums are around the same weight with the AZ1002 weighing slightly more, around 0.4lbs to be exact. The dimensions for both vacuums are also relatively the same.
- Maneuverability (Tie) - Both the AZ1002 and the NV752 have the powered lift away feature. This feature allows you to extend the reach of the vacuum by detaching the canister.
This allows you to clean tight spaces such as under furniture as well as above ground areas such as curtains or window sills.
