Upgrade would be better-too cheap
on May 6, 2026
Posted by: Sondrijo
Lightweight bound for short life. Bucket latch to empty very flimsy. Cord when rolled tighty ends up on top of hook making impossible to snap on cord. Ergonomically dos not rest well in the hand with major side strain to wrist. No wonder it’s on clearance.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Suction is great. Why would you accept an engineers product that does not stand up?

Hi there,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear the suction performs well, but we can understand how frustrating it is when the design like the unit not standing on its own doesn’t meet expectations. That kind of detail can really impact day‑to‑day use. Your feedback is important to us and will be shared with our teams.

Great light weight vacuum
on May 29, 2026

I bought this for my cleaning ladies. I have had a Shark Lift a Way professional go many years. I loved the lift a way. However, my cleaning ladies showed me this vacuum, I called Shark and asked what vacuum would be the best for Carpet. The lady recommended this one. She wasn’t wrong. It’s perfect. My cleaning ladies love how light and easy it is. Works great. Especially on my carpeted stair way.

Powerful suction, light weight, easy to store!

The best upgrade yet since moving away from my competitor battery-powered stick vacuum. This Shark Detect is powerful, light, and provides a deep clean that made me realize what my old vacuum was leaving behind.
I absolutely love the feature that allows you to easily click the stick away from the rotator brush to jump right into crevice mode with the tools. Plus, being able to remove the engine for compact storage is a huge bonus.
One minor downside is that the dust canister is on the smaller side, but it's definitely not enough to deter me from purchasing it. It's also incredibly easy to empty and clean, with a great filtration system. Highly recommend!
