Which new hoover: Shark corded versus cordless?

I have a second hand shark flexographic duo clean. I spend the majority of my time unblocking it, cleaning filters and cutting off the hair around the roller. The suction is ok but definitely not as good as it was no matter how much I empty and clean it.

I'm buying a new one, reading reviews im pretty set on a shark but am between the corded lift away and the cordless versions.
I love the idea of cordless and reviews of the most recent model seem good, but I've got friends who swear by the lift away and reviews on this are excellent too..but they haven't used a cordless to compare.

My question is....is the cordless suction as good as corded? I've carpet and hard floors, its a new carpet but is already looking tired in places, I want really good suction to be able to pull up the pile a bit, but also need maximum maneuverability as my stairs curve around and are a bugger to hoover.

Anyone out there who've tried both versions? (mainly interested in the more up to date versions if anyone has that experience)
Both are a lot of money to spend...don't want to regret the splurge!

Relieved to hear others have had problems with their Shark Liftaway. I spend ages cutting away hair and generally unblocking it. It's great at picking up fine dust, but doesn't seem to lift crumbs or just spits them back.
My DM is evangelical about her Sebo, so I'm planning on trying that next.
