This vacuum is amazing in more ways than one! The suction is unbelievable. The auto detect is one of the coolest features I’ve ever experienced and it totally work. The container in the back literally sucks the dust, hair, cat litter up so easily! Very pleased! One downside is the actual vacuum portion will get into the locked standing position while vacuuming and that can be annoying but everything else makes it worth it
Purchase 2 weeks ago. Usage has been very frustrating as the roller head continues to stick even on very short nap rugs. If makes standard vacuuming very difficult.

We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and look forward to helping.
Absolutely terrible. It shuts off every 30 seconds without a clear reason as to why. I’ve been trying to vacuum my space for several hours but keep having to stop while it resets.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The vacuum itself is good picks up great. But the tube is very flimsy. And for some reason mine does not have the emptying dock.

I bought this a month ago, and I am so happy that I did. It has been an everyday sweeper for our family. It is easy to store. Great at cleaning big spaces; long battery life. Convenient to grab and clean up little messes. Love the design, weight, and suction. This sweeper is a must have!
I’ve had this thing for six months now. It’s my first cordless vacuum, so I was originally thrilled by its convenience. But I grow more disappointed with it every time I use it. I have to clean the brush head (and sometimes the wand, as well) after each use because it gets so clogged with pet hair. The teeth behind the felt brush just catch hair and clog so quickly. The other issue is that the motor will just randomly stop and all the lights on the screen flash. I have no idea what it means. I turn it off, turn it on, and it starts up again until the next episode a few minutes later. And finally, the battery takes far too long to charge. I have a lot of pet hair and a medium sized house, and I can’t do the whole house on a single charge. It takes hours for the battery to recharge to do the rest of my house. And by then, I’ve given up. Photos show how much hair gets clogged in the brush. The search for a good cordless vacuum continues…

This was my very first cordless vacuum cleaner. How excited I was to be able to pick up this vacuum and not be tied to an electrical outlet. This is BY FAR the worst expensive purchase I have ever made. When I vacuum I want suction!! I want the dirt and dust to be sucked up. Yes I ran it on high speed. This vacuum has low, medium and high. It’s suppose to give 70 minutes of vacuum time. Although it doesn’t stay, but this must be on low speed, because I am lucky to get 15 minutes. I can’t get through two rooms and either the vacuum get plugged or the battery power starts flashing. Not long after that flashing the vacuum turns off. Well my house is only 1230 Square feet, not a large house, and I can’t get my work done. So my solution was to purchase an extra battery. Still can’t complete my home even with two batteries. There is a flaw too in the design of the vacuum bar. Between the roller bar and the plastic housing of the vacuum head it catches lint, dust, dirt, whatever and needs to be cleaned out on a regular basis. I have had my vacuum over a year I really really tried to make this work but I hate it!!! I do like the auto clean docking station, but that’s about it. I replaced it today with a bissell vacuum that is corded, may my Shark rest in peace. So that’s my opinion … hope you have better results. Hey Shark want to buy back this piece of ju$k.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there, Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the vacuum, especially the low suction, short runtime, and blockages you’ve encountered. We completely understand how frustrating this must be. The PowerDetect Cordless Vacuum features Smart Detect Technology, which is designed to automatically adjust suction based on floor type, dirt levels, and edges to balance performance and runtime. It also has a 450W motor to support strong cleaning performance, and weighs 7.96 lbs for easier handling. However, we appreciate that this hasn’t matched your expectations in use. To help maintain strong suction, we would recommend regularly checking for blockages in the hand vacuum, wand, floorhead, charging post, and dock, as well as keeping the filters clean, correctly fitted, and fully dry before use.
