    Quiet & Great for Pet Hair

    Quiet & Great for Pet Hair
    I’m loving this vacuum so far. It’s great on our hardwood floors! Picks up the finest dog hairs leaving nothing behind. The attachments are really nice as well. I’m able to use those to easily clean my couches and the infant play mat that loves to collect dog fur. The vacuum is also really lightweight for an upright, which is perfect for me. The cord length is pretty standard. It gets me around half my living area, which is super convenient! The vacuum attachments easily click into the holders on the vacuum.I took a star off because there isn’t a spot for all of the vacuum attachments that it comes with. I also find the power button to be inconveniently located, but I understand that’s my own personal preference. I wish I could power on and off on the handle itself, like I can with my other shark vacuum. I also wish there was a lighting feature for the handheld attachments to make it easier to see baseboards and dust, but again that’s just my preference.Overall, I’m really loving the power of this vacuum! And the sound is so soothing that it puts my infant to sleep when I’m vacuuming. That’s a win!Attaching a photo to show a week’s worth of dog fur collected in one pass over my hardwood floors in my home. I know - gross, but this vacuum certainly handles it all!

    Color: White, RedVerified Purchase
    I've had this vacuum for a little over 3 years now and it is still going strong; it is the best vacuum I've ever owned bar none. When it goes I will get another Shark, this model if it's still available. I cannot say enough good things about it. I do the filter changes within the recommended time frames that I'm supposed to and honestly the motor is just so powerful and the suction has stayed just as strong as when I first bought it. Off-brand filters are incredibly easy to find as well and are very reasonably priced. The attachments that come with the vacuum are incredibly versatile and well made. The wand release and lift away feature are so helpful with getting stairs. All of the bristles on the main brush are still very together and firm there's absolutely no wear on them or fraying. Some people like to say "they don't build them like they used to" about a lot of consumer products out there. Well... those people would be wrong about this vacuum this is probably one of the best things you can buy for your household and count on it to work reliably day after day year after year. I would also like to add that I have been a bit rough with this vacuum like I am not a delicate person I've slammed this thing around a bit. am I the only person out there who really puts their rage and emotion into their vacuuming? I seriously doubt it but let me tell you this vacuum can handle just about anything you can throw at it. Also, I love how easy it is to clean hair and strands of fiber or string out of the main brush roll with the rich grooves that they've created in the brush roll itself so that you can slide a sharp pair of scissors or a knife into the groove and cut the fibers or hairs and then pull them out from the brush roll. It's really hard to understand why all vacuums aren't designed the way that this one is and have the features that this one does and have the kind of quality that the shark vacuum does. I swear that I'm not a bot or some kind of like salesperson for shark this is just really an awesome vacuum and I could rant about it all day because out of all the things that I use in my house on a daily basis this is probably my favorite and not only that but it actually looks nice too. you know how a lot of things that are white plastic that you buy get that ugly yellow dinge within a short amount of time? This vacuum is not in that category mine still is the same nice white color It had when it was purchased. All of the rubber and silicone dust seals and the places where different components of the vacuum that are removable meat are still very well sealed and there are no air leaks in the hose either I swear to God this vacuum is like a miracle that something this could can actually exist. Most stuff made out there by most companies whether it be cell phones or cars are designed to break I feel like within a few years.

    5.0 out of 5 stars BEST VACUUM EVER. 3 year owner review
    Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2021
    I've had this vacuum for a little over 3 years now and it is still going strong; it is the best vacuum I've ever owned bar none. When it goes I will get another Shark, this model if it's still available. I cannot say enough good things about it. I do the filter changes within the recommended time frames that I'm supposed to and honestly the motor is just so powerful and the suction has stayed just as strong as when I first bought it. Off-brand filters are incredibly easy to find as well and are very reasonably priced. The attachments that come with the vacuum are incredibly versatile and well made. The wand release and lift away feature are so helpful with getting stairs. All of the bristles on the main brush are still very together and firm there's absolutely no wear on them or fraying. Some people like to say "they don't build them like they used to" about a lot of consumer products out there. Well... those people would be wrong about this vacuum this is probably one of the best things you can buy for your household and count on it to work reliably day after day year after year. I would also like to add that I have been a bit rough with this vacuum like I am not a delicate person I've slammed this thing around a bit. am I the only person out there who really puts their rage and emotion into their vacuuming? I seriously doubt it but let me tell you this vacuum can handle just about anything you can throw at it. Also, I love how easy it is to clean hair and strands of fiber or string out of the main brush roll with the rich grooves that they've created in the brush roll itself so that you can slide a sharp pair of scissors or a knife into the groove and cut the fibers or hairs and then pull them out from the brush roll. It's really hard to understand why all vacuums aren't designed the way that this one is and have the features that this one does and have the kind of quality that the shark vacuum does. I swear that I'm not a bot or some kind of like salesperson for shark this is just really an awesome vacuum and I could rant about it all day because out of all the things that I use in my house on a daily basis this is probably my favorite and not only that but it actually looks nice too. you know how a lot of things that are white plastic that you buy get that ugly yellow dinge within a short amount of time? This vacuum is not in that category mine still is the same nice white color It had when it was purchased. All of the rubber and silicone dust seals and the places where different components of the vacuum that are removable meat are still very well sealed and there are no air leaks in the hose either I swear to God this vacuum is like a miracle that something this could can actually exist. Most stuff made out there by most companies whether it be cell phones or cars are designed to break I feel like within a few years. Maybe I just somehow got a magical vacuum that was like blessed by you know the goddesd of home economics or something but in all seriousness BUY THE VACUUM.

    Today we used this vacuum cleaner, we had waited until there was alot of dog fur on the carpet and other areas of the home. It worked really well, and was much easier to use than our old Dirt Devil. The only issue I have is wish the power cord was longer. I had to empty the container about 4 times but the carpet is much cleaner. We did use the attachment for cleaning chairs and sofa it worked great and love the feature to just release the handle and place the attachment on it. Would recommend this product.

    This vacuum has great suction and maneuvering is easy. Does a very good job on all types of surfaces. I would recommend this vacuum for sure. My last one lasted 10 years and is still going. Large dust cup and easy to empty. Keep filters clean for best operation. Cord length is good.

    I really do love this vacuum cleaner! It almost self-propels forward, which is great because almost my whole 1500 sq ft apartment is carpet, so my arms don't get quite so tired, even though this isn't what I would consider a light-weight vacuum. Not as heavy as some others, but I'm pretty small and don't consider myself a strong person, so I find it a little on the heavy side (but not unbearable, and totally worth the power you get).

    The suction is amazing, including the handle and attachments. I almost could not believe the amount of gross dirt living in my carpet. I say 'almost' because I have a dog, plus I should have known that my old vacuum was worthless. The amount of my hair that the vacuum picks up is amazing. I know I shed a lot, but wow! I do find that a lot of hair gets stuck in the brush bristles, however a pair of scissors easily takes care of this problem. When I am done vacuuming, I cut out all of the stuck hair, and use the handle to suck it up. Very easy!

    I don't find the canister or the head of the vacuum to be too small. The head is smaller than some other vacuums, but since it works 10x better and is super easy to push around, I am fine with the slightly more narrow head. Plus, this makes it easily maneuverable and it can reach odd spaces.

    The attachments are useful, although the rubber hose is pretty stiff and hard to stretch. This is likely due to the powerful suction. I particularly like the brush attachment - I can easily dislodge and vacuum up dog hair from the furniture (that she is not allowed on, but somehow still gets hair all over....hmmm).

    It is really convenient to be able to remove the handle, add an attachment, and remove the vacuum from the base to make it portable. This makes cleaning stairs SO much easier than it ever was before. I do have to admit that the vacuum is not well balanced, and when I was vacuuming the stairs for the first time it did fall twice - and once on my head (ouch! I was pretty angry). The easy solution to this? Vacuum on the way UP the stairs, instead of on the way down.:) The vacuum will still tip over on other occasions, but mostly when I am stretching the handle too far away from the body. If you remove the body from the base and carry the body around, it makes reaching hard spots much easier.

    Anyway, I did painstaking research and read countless reviews on hundreds of vacuums before settling on this. This is the second shark vacuum I've purchased - one I had gotten years ago for hard floors and upholstery cleaning, then gave to my sister. I loved that little thing, too (I can't remember what it was called, but it was small, purple, and unbelievably powerful). I love this vacuum just as much - it is powerful, compact, and easy to store. I have no issues whatsoever with the performance.

    I have 2 complaints that are the reasons it gets 4 instead of 5 stars. 1) The balance issue. Not a huge deal, but a little frustrating to get used to. 2) The cord. REALLY?? We couldn't get a retractable cord on this? I was dumbfounded when I got this and saw the long cord that I had to wrap up myself. The old shark had a retractable cord, so I didn't really even think this was a question. That is just silly. Why the heck don't ALL vacuums have a retractable cord? This is not new technology, people!

    Anyway, overall, an amazing buy. I love this vacuum and am SO happy with my decision (and really glad I didn't get a Dyson - looks like about 50% of people LOVE their Dyson, and 50% HATE it...not good enough odds for me). Like others have said, you can get this at Bed Bath and Beyond with the 20% off coupon for a GREAT deal. The attachments are different, I think another reviewer went into a lot of detail with the attachments, so I won't do that here. I do love Amazon and the amazing return policy and customer service, but, heck, if you can get the same thing somewhere else for 20% cheaper, I'm up for that any day!

    I hope you found this helpful, and if you have any questions, just ask!

    I bought this model vacuum 8 years ago, it always worked great, but it didn't work anymore. So I repurchased this same model. I hope it will last a long too.

    Tengo 2 años con el y no he tenido ningun problema con el funcionamento. Lo que si es que hay que darle el mantenimiento de limpieza a las esponjas para que no el motor no se apague. Es un producto bastante bueno!!!! Vale la pena pagarlo!

    Producto muy recomendable. Potente, versatil y muy apto para limpieza general del hogar! Una recomendacion para la compañia productora SHARK es: mejorar la forma de asegurar los accesorios para evitar el constante estorbo de ellos al estar aspirando. La solucion a esto como usuario es de sencillamente quitar dichos accesorios pero, lo practico es tenerlos siempre cercanos a uno!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Cleans well, hand tools have good suction
    Reviewed in Canada on January 15, 2021

    So far I've been happy with it. It picks up cat litter with a lot less scattering than my old vaccuum and is pretty good at getting stuff at the edges of walls and in corners. The hand tools have good suction unlike my old vaccuum. The lift away canister feature is handy. I do find it feels a bit heavier to use than my old vaccuum because the full weight tilts forward onto the handle when vaccuming instead of the canister balancing on the base, but it does a good job.
