Shark ZU782 Rotator Lift-Away DuoClean Pro Upright Vacuum with Self-Cleaning Brushroll, DuoClean, HEPA Filter, Headlights, Swivel Steering, Upholstery Tool, Pet Power Brush & Crevice Tool, Sage Green

Vacuum is heaver then what it says. Heaver then the old vacuums back in the day. My wrist hurts from just using it for 10 minutes. I can not expect my cleaning service to take this up and down the stairs. No smooth on turns and does not have a good suction as I was hopping for. Also, was shipped without the manual of how to put together or use. For the money, I would not recommend.

I had to replace my Dyson vacuum so I decided to give this a try, so glad I did. I like this much better.

It has a little weight to it that makes it a little harder to maneuver. I like that it goes under chairs. I dont feel it cleans along edges of the carpet very well without using attachments.

***ATTENTION*** 3-30-21 I HAVE FIGURED OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS UNIT. THE FILTER BEING CONE SHAPED RESULTS IN ONLY THE VERY TOP OF THE FOAM FILTER ACTUALLY DOING ANYTHING. THIS MEANS A VERY SMALL PORTION OF THE FILTER GETS CLOGGED UP WITH DUST AND THE LARGEST PART OF THE FILTER DOES NOTHING. SO AFTER USING THE VACUUM TWO OR THREE TIMES THE FILTER BECOMES CLOGGED RESULTING IN VERY VERY POOR SUCTION. ONCE THE FILTER IS CLOGGED UP THE VACUUM NO LONGER CLEANS CARPETS OR RUGS, RATHER IT GRINDS THE DIRT DOWN DEEP INTO THE FIBERS. THE ONLY WAY TO COMBAT THIS IS TO BUY ANOTHER FILTER AND SWITCH THEM AS SOON AS IT LOOKS DIRTY OR PULL THE FILTERS AND CLEAN THEM AFTER EVERY 2ND OR 3RD USE. ***THIS IS100% DO NOT BUY A SHARK VACUUM WITH A CONE SHAPED FOAM FILTER.*** I had been extremely satisfied with our original shark purchase approximately ten years ago. It is the white professional version of the lift away series i believe. We still use it in our basement. It has been a top notch performer from day one. We couldnt have been more satisfied with it. So i was certain we would be getting an even better unit this time around! I couldnt have been more wrong. My wife noticed right away that this new unit lacked the suction of the old by quite a bit. It left dog hair on our only rug. We have a white dog and dark area rug so its hard to miss. I brushed it off thinking that she must not have been using the right settings. Until recently when i used the vacuum myself. What a hunk of junk this thing is! We literally have one 7x10 area rug and this thing left dog hair everywhere. I spent a half hour trying to get it all off. Trying both rollers on, one roller on. The air dam closed, a little open, all the way open. I checked the filters, everything. NOTHING WORKED!!!! So i got the old vacuum and yep. It picked it right up. Every last piece of hair was gone. What ive found is that this vacuum does a great job on the hardwood but is just awful on any kind of carpets. I went back over the 7x10 area rug i had just spent 30 minutes on with our old vacuum and picked up another half canister of dust and hair that the new one had been grinding down into the rug. Not only that but there was a ton of sand UNDERNEATH the rug itself! This never happened with the old shark vacuum. We would lift the rug once a month and there would be a dusting of fine sand not a sandbox like this left. Sadly our return window has closed on this hunk of junk. So ive got to eat the $350 i spent on it. The old shark is no longer produced either so i guess well have to give dyson a try this time around.

I am in love with this vacuum. After years of use I decided to retire my old Shark navigator and had been so please by its quality that I knew I wanted another Shark vacuum. After looking at all the different types I settled on this one. We have 2 Great Pyrenees and a cat that shed insane amounts. This vacuum doesnt skip a beat. The suction is powerful enough that sometimes I feel like it wants to eat the carpet. Thats the kind of power I need. Im tall and the handle is long enough that I dont feel like Im constantly straining my back or crouched over to vacuum. The cord length is ample and I find it pretty easy to maneuver around furniture and different types of flooring. I really enjoy this vacuum.

Ive been searching for a vacuum that would pick up cat litter scattered on the floor; this Shark is a winner. This is my first time using a Duo and I am impressed. The vacuum is more than I wanted to spend, but that seems to be the norm with any decent vacuum. To address some of the other reviews: a) I have had no issues with vacuum being unstable when stood up. Just make sure the floor part is clicked in / latched into the upright part of the vacuum. I have had it standing on hardwood, tile, and low-pile carpet. b) Yes, the cord is low on the body of the upright part of the vacuum. This is my second Shark canister vacuum and the cord has been low on both of them, probably because of the canister needing to be removable. In order to prevent running over the cord when pulling the vacuum backwards; I lay the first section of the cord up and over the top cord hook. Works great this way.

3 dogs create alot of hair and dirt in a primarly carpet house. Ive had several vacuums in the last couple years that I thought did well, until I bought this vacuum. This vacuum is incredible. I used to vacuum and then carpet scrub and still get alot of hair out with the scrubber, now there is hardly any hair and the water seems cleaner to my eye. The amount of hair and dirt the shark picks up is disgustingly awesome. I would highly recommend this vacuum to anyone struggling with pet hair and dirt.

THIS IS THE BEST PURCHASE I MADE IN 2020! The power on this baby is amazing! And the Lift-Away feature is my absolute favorite! This has made my life so much easier! Not only is it faster/easier to vacuum my stairs, and couches, but the Shark picks up soooooo much more dirt and hair than any vacuum Ive owned! I only have 2 complaints about this vacuum. (Theyre not so important to me, but they may be deciding factors for others) 1. Its HEAVY! This bad boy packs some weight. Although it moves easily and smoothly, holding it up can be a challenge. To add to this its on the tall side. So a short 52 lady like myself has to hold it lower, where Im supporting more of its weight. 2. The uncloggable brush roll is fake news. I have a long haired dog, a long haired cat, and a long haired self. I have to clean out the brush roll every 4th use or so. Ill admit, I also dont vacuum as often as Im supposed to.. HOWEVER! The brush roll is SO EASY to get to and SO EASY to clean! I highly recommend this vacuum to everyone!

Cleans my hardwood floors and the carpet both love the power

First Shark Ive owned and I like it. Its a bit difficult to read the lettering on the buttons but otherwise very positive experience.
