> 3 dayI need to address the reviews that state this is impossible to push or pull. The only way this is true is if you are using this on an area rug and are going against the grain. You know, the decorative, short pile 5x8s you get at biglots that are rolled up and the pile tends to lay more in one direction... If you stand in the opposite direction, you will see what I am talking about and it will no longer be an issue. So, to those people, either flip the rug or move yourself. Wall to wall carpet, wool area rugs (loop or pile) are no problems with this vac. Great for solid surface flooring and stairs too. You can turn of the beater brush and use suction only for hard surface flooring. The vac is not too heavy so it works well on stairs. Small doorway mats and/or runners, the kind with latex that you can throw in the washer, with a small loop pile (berber like) CAN be vacuumed with this too IF you turn the suction down on the handle. There is a cover that just rotates to lessen the suction so it does not suck the rugs up too. I have yet to come across something that this vac cant handle or adjust to.

> 3 dayI like this little vacuum. It is the first upright I have owned, I always had canisters. The reason it has only 4 stars is that emptying the bag-less canister is yucky. See below. I thought I’d list pros and cons. It generally works very well. PROs It really sucks (in a good way). Very powerful suction. Especially great if you have dogs that shed out an undercoat. It has a detachable hose with tools that lets you clean in crevices or under furniture. Or if you REALLY need major suction you can use the hose. The hose is a little short, but it is convenient. It is compact. We tended to keep out canister vacuum in the living room because we used it every day. It was ugly and took up a lot of space. This one fits in a corner and doesn’t take up much space. I like that it sits upright and doesn’t fall over when I want to stop it for a second. I like the twisting head which really does make it easy to maneuver. A switch that turns it on for floors only or for carpet is convenient. CONs The main thing that is bad is emptying the plastic waste container. There are a lot of very fine particles. I have to empty it outside and into a used plastic shopping bag. You really don’t want to breath the dust in, you might even want to wear a respirator mask. Also, the dog hair gets stuck way up in the container, where the middle is blocked by the round hose connection, and it is very hard to get out. I have to use a thin twig to coax the clumps of hair out. I find this annoying. Did I mention that there is a lot of super fine dirt/dust? It is heavy to push and pull. Of course, I am used to a canister, so if you are used to an upright it might not seem heavy to you. The power cord is shorter than my old vacuum so I have to re-plug it in all the time as I move around the house. You have to hold the power cord up out of the way so you don’t vacuum over it. You experienced upright users might not have a problem with this. I don’t know yet about the filters. The Shark brand filters are very expensive, especially the HEPA filter, so I bought non-Shark branded filters. I don’t know how they are going to work. I try to wash out the stock filters pretty frequently so they don’t get too gummed up. Since they have to dry for 24 hours after washing them it might be convenient to have an extra set that you alternate with. UPDATE June 2021: So the hose on this vacuum is a piece of junk. If you try to use it to clean crevasses or furniture by unhooking the top part, the hose just cracks after a couple of months. It breaks even if I am being very careful (which I have been). I have had to buy TWO replacements to the tune of $40 each. I would not buy this vacuum again. Between this piece of junk hose and the huge amounts of fine dust that accumulates in the receptacle that you have to get exposed to, it is better to get something else.

> 3 dayThis is my favorite vacuum ever. My only complaint is the hose is kinda short and doesnt stretch much. It finally killed mine. I guess after 3 years of heavy use, I pulled on the hose too much and it broke. Theres a big hole in it now. Im just going to buy another though!
