> 3 dayOkay I purchased this one because of value and it is a shark, was replacing my old shark because well it was old and no longer worked as well. This one is no good it does not pull debris from sides of walls. Over heats quickly, filter clogs quickly and when it heats up it shuts off, a good thing Im sure. Can only vaccum for a short time like around 5minutes depending on amount of debris. I would only recommend this for someone who has a small space like a small RV or camper, without any kind of hair. Th cup filter fills up faster than the actual debris container. I missed my window of return or I would not have this vaccum.

> 3 dayAbsolutely love this vacuum. Its small enough to get in between furniture and big enough to sweep a room. Love that I can vacuum rugs without holding them down. And I love that I can vacuum furniture and steps!

> 3 dayShark has switched to a different wheel that no longer pushes back when you set it up straight, stabilizing the base. With the new wheels, it no longer is stabilized and will not stand up on its own. You have to set it down or prop it up against something. Ridiculous. I returned mine within 30 minutes of opening it and putting it together and wish I had looked in detail at the low ratings. I dont care how well it does its job, the design is not good. When I returned it to a big chain that starts with K they had all the Shark models on display and I had hoped to find one that WOULD stand on its own as I have loved the Shark that I bought 3 years ago....but no. They were ALL propped up with bars so they would appear to be standing on their own. I ended up getting another brand, and because of the discount that the store taking returns gives, I got a great machine and saved a TON!

> 3 dayThe vacum was great while it lasted but stopped working after 3 months. Obviously quality was poor!

> 3 dayEverytime I vacuum I need to pull the whole thing apart. gets clogged super easy, but you wont know its clogged. Looses power and you end up just pushing the dirt around. It can barely vacuum a 20x15 room wit out having to stop and pull it apart. would not buy again

> 3 dayThe vacuum cleaner works GREAT, however, after having it and using it for less than a month, the swivel part is broken and since my return window closed I am unable to return it. Amazon was willing to make an exception for me to return it and receive a refund MINUS a restocking fee of $52.00. They are not sure if there is a warranty for the vacuum cleaner but I am being inconvenienced by now having to box it up (I threw the box away already), having to bring it to a UPS store and to top that off get a $52.00 deduction. You may be better off ordering directly from Shark because you will be guaranteed any missing or broken parts. I will send attach a picture of the broken piece later.

> 3 dayIm a demanding user of vacuums. For most items on Amazon, my satisfaction level with this vacuum would lead me to give five stars. But I expect a lot from vacuums, and though this one is good, its nowhere near great. This is a handy, somewhat powerful vacuum with several additional helpful tools besides the rotating floor beater. Suction from this machine is better than from my cordless stick vacuums of equal size. Only my Dyson V10 has equal suction--and that only at the highest of its three levels, a level that drains its battery in under ten minutes. So in just plain power, this is a fairly decent vacuum. Yet its limited in power by its stick design and doesnt have the suction of an equivalently-priced canister or normal (non-stick design) upright. Nor does it have multiple power levels. Theres one level for suction, and thats it. The beater head is powerful and capable, and has a slow speed for bare floors and a power speed for carpets. The beater does a good job with carpets, but on bare floors Id prefer a simple wide unpowered brush without a beater. This comes with a four-inch-wide non-powered auxiliary brush, but I found it basically useless for cleaning floors and under furniture because it lacks effective bristles and just sort of scrapes along a very narrow path of flooring--and if you dont hold it at the exact right angle it barely cleans at all. The biggest of my complaints with this vacuum is that the beater head is narrow, forcing more stripes to clean the floor, and it doesnt fit under furniture easily. Whats the use of a stick vacuum if it doesnt get into tight spots or fit under furniture? Its a good beater head with a very narrow unused strip at its outer edges, but it still doesnt work as well as my Dyson for getting in places and under things because, despite the narrow head, its awkward and somewhat bulky where you need it svelte and maneuverable. Here are some additional observations: 1) The vacuum doesnt stand upright on its beater head but topples over. Its back heavy. You will have to lean it against a closet wall. 2) The vacuum works well in getting dirt off carpets, but the dirt reservoir is small. I had to empty it twice when sweeping about 1000 square feet of fairly clean hardwood and some rugs. 3) The cord is short. Id prefer eight more feet of cord. I think, honestly, that at the price you would be better off getting a Shark cordless vacuum. Ive bought Shark cordless vacuums at Costco for $250 that were nearly as good as this vacuum--and far more portable.
