I love my Shark! So easy to use and works great in my truck also! I’ve had this vacuum about six months and it has not clogged once...we have three dogs and four cats...that’s a miracle in itself!
I am a picky consumer with high expectations. I have 3 big dogs; 2 of which shed enough to make fur multiple coats. I have owned all of the "must have" vacuums; the last one only a year, at which point it literally died. I received a referral to try this specific vacuum, which we just purchased within the past month. I simply LOVE everything about it. There is nothing I would change and it performs every advertised function with ease and no hassle. I am constantly astounded at the amount of dog hair it easily and consistently picks up. I do not ever see myself buying a different vacuum.
The only issue I have had with this product is that the lift away function for stairs is not optional,meaning u have to break down the vacuum and add an attachment to do the stairs and leave the bottom of the vacuum downstairs. Then u have to put it back together just to do the upstairs level instead of lifting the entire vacuum up each stair so that it is together once u get upstairs. If u try to do the stairs with the entire vacuum ,the brush and suction don't work on the vacuum.
I purchases this to replace my first Shark years ago. Nothing was wrong with it until I fell on it and broke the hose connection at the base. This one works just as well as my other one did.
I have had my Shark for several months and I'm still being impressed. I have 12 cats and 2 dogs, this machine picks up every last hair. Switching out attachments is a breeze. I can go carpet to walls to ceiling fans. I love it.
