I wanted a lightweight cordless vacuum that could go from floor vac to hand vac. I researched my options and settled on this one. We have a cat and also are allergic to cats (go figure) so really wanted something to get the cat hair under control. Unbeknownst to me when I ordered this, not only do we have a cat but we also had a major flea situation (I can’t bring myself to use the word ‘infestation’). I ripped this lil’ Shark out of the box and immediately started vacuuming, and have used it almost daily for the past three weeks. Really impressed with the suction, charge, ease of use, and ease of emptying. It’s easy to transition it from a floor vac to a hand vac, and the pet hair attachment and crevice tool seem good. I wish there was a place on the device to store the extra tools, because I’m just wandering around from room to room carrying them in a plastic bag for whenever I need to swap them in and out. Also a little annoying that I sometimes have to power off and on when it gets unhappy with one of the throw rugs and the floor brush stops spinning. But overall, I love it! I have two Dysons, a Roomba, and a shop vac, and this one has been getting by far the most use. I’m shocked and horrified by how much dust and fur it picks up every day. Gross but satisfying (and fleas are now at bay!!). Read more

A little preface; I am a 60 year old man who had 7 back surgeries a few years ago. Because of that, I researched and bought a highly rated, different brand stick vacuum about 3 years ago. It helped a lot! However, it didn't do as good of a vacuuming job as my plug in vacuum, so I would get that out about once a year. That caused quite a bit of back pain, so I didn't do it often. This Christmas one of my daughters got her own place for the first time, and asked for a Shark vacuum on her wish list. I got it for her, but in reading the reviews, decided to get one for myself. HOLY COW, it picks up SO MUCH more dirt out of the carpet than my other stick vacuum! I am horrified at how dirty my house had become, even though you couldn't see it. My house looked clean. Every single time I vacuum with the Shark I am amazed at how much more dust it collects! I vacuumed every room 3 times, emptying the collector in between, and it STILL kept sucking a lot more out! This one is noticeably heavier than my first stick vacuum, but is not so heavy to cause me back pain, even on the basement stairs, even though I have a really messed up back. I also really like the auto-detect feature, where it changes the brush speed when moving from carpet to hard floor. Also, the blue light does a GREAT job of highlighting things on hard floors, making it easy to quickly target the main problems. If I had a complaint it would be that I don't see the point in the high power trigger. I wish it was on high power full time. But it isn't hard to hold, so I run at high suction power all the time.

I love that this is cordless, lightweight, and works very well. The accessories are easy to change out. My only complaint is that the battery lasts only about 30 minutes when you run it on high. However, when running it on high, it picks up light, dusty footprints from my hardwood floors, so it doesn't bother me too much. The battery run time is just about perfect for getting my living room, dining room, and kitchen floors done in one charge. The battery charges pretty quickly, so after it charges I'm able to get my other three rooms done. It's easy to switch from carpet to hard floors with just the slide of a switch. I've had it for about a month and have only had to empty the canister twice. I don't have it memorized yet on how to empty the canister, but there are instructions on the vacuum itself, so it's not a big deal. It also does a good job of picking up hair, whether it's my fine, thin hair, my son's curly hair, or the leftover pet hair from my home's previous owner's four little dogs. Read more

My six-year-old Dyson was slowing down so I decided to stop around for a new cordless vacuum. The fellow who cleans my carpets on an annual basis recommended the Sharp. I couldn’t be more pleased. It does a superior job at vacuuming up cat hair and, on a hard surface floor, kibble which the Dyson simply ignored. It’s powerful and very easy to use and has a large dirt cup which is much easier to empty than the Dyson’s. All this for about 25% of the cost of the Dyson! Amazing.. Read more
