Amazing Shark!

Love my new shark! The suction is amazing. It is fairly light to use. The deodorizer, automatic floor detection, and no hair wrap are great features. One thing I would like is for the cord to be a little longer.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love it. it has great suction and I like the new roller, where the hair does not get wrapped around it. My only complaint is the cord is really stiff.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am a shark user for over 35 years. I finally purchased a new one because my old was slowly falling apart many of the plastic components were becoming so brittle. Shark vacuum have the best suction I have ever seen. So lightweight, great features and so easy to maneuver
I would recommend this to a friend!

When it works it works great.

When it works it works great. Unfortunately after maybe a month of owning the floor type detect sensor gave out and it switches back and forth between carpet and hardwood non stop, making vacuuming impossible unless I put it in manual mode. It also has now decided to suck all air in through this little vent at the bottom of the dust collector bin part that holds all the dirt which is incredibly loud, even though I’ve gone through the entire thing and there’s nothing blocking any of the hoses. For how expensive this vacuum is, I shouldnt have to be putting this much work into figuring out problems instead of vacuuming
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A little disappointed
on March 27, 2025
Posted by: The cleaner 71
I almost want to send it back because of the plastic cord you put on it. Why ruin a vacuum with a stiff plastic cord. It fights against me , not works with me . As far as the vacuuming goes- it’s ok. I don’t think the backward vacuuming picks up too well

Picks up the unseen mess
on March 25, 2025

Ever since I used the vacuum I’ve seen a noticeable difference in my home. I’m am over the moon with the performance of it and I can confidently say that my home feels cleaner than ever. I went over the same areas of my home I used my old vacuum and the amount of dust/dirt that came out of the area using the Shark left me speechless. I filled the canister three times in my bedroom alone; you can believe I was left both stunned and speechless. I’m extremely happy with the purchase to say the least and highly recommend it!
