Easily put together. Very quiet. Great cleaning on thick carpet. Excellent cleaning on hard floors. Love the lights and rotator handle. Extra length cord a plus. This vacuum is a winner!

    No floor attachment, not good for hard surfaces
    This model also doesn't come with a floor attachment and is only marketed for wall to wall carpet in homes, which isn't exactly what a modern home looks like now. It's heavier compared to an older model that also included a floor attachment.

        Does a good job!
        Researched before I purchased and am happy with this vacuum. Only cons: I wish it was a little wider, it takes longer to do the floors. It’s very maneuverable but kind of heavy. I would buy again because it does a good job on my rugs and bare floor.

        Love my shark
        This is my second shark in 11 years, no other vacuum can handle the hair and dirt from my 4 dogs. It’s so easy to use it virtually does the vacuuming for you

        Have owned many vacuum
        Have owned many vacuum brands in my time but never have been as impressed as I was with the shark! My mother in law had one and I fell in love and had to have my own and now I couldn’t live without it! Highly recommend!

          Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. We
          Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. We have 4 furry pets and this vacuum is great. We love that we can clean the filters and we purchased a second set of filters so we can wash one and leave to dry and have a replacement. As long as you clean the filters and rinse the parts that can be washed, it works great.

            Superb workhorse. Had for over 7 years! Olympian!
            I love this smart design and user friendly home care vac. I had a German Shedder,…gosh it rained a duststorm of hair every day…. The Vacuum was a fabulous addition. Love the HEPA filter… only drawback is I wish the hose was detachable and washable. The whole handle assembly has to be removed to replace it. I am buying the replacement, but I live on an island and plastic is hard to recycle. Still I love this to bits and SEVEN YEARS OF HARD WORK IS OUTSTANDING! In any Olympic housecleaning!

              I will never buy
              I will never buy a different vacuum. We have three dogs so I’m constantly vacuuming and this always gets all the hair.

                Love this vacuum
                I have grown to love this vacuum cleaner. It took me about seven uses to really get the hang of it and how it works and comes apart in all the different ways you can use it. It’s got fabulous suction and it’s very versatile. I recommend that you realize that there will be a little bit of a learning curve when you first get it but it will pay off. The only thing I have had a little bit of trouble with is the attachments, I can never seem to attach them correctly! But that’s OK I still love the vacuum

                  Was a great vaccum
                  It did its job till the rotory motor went out so now me beater brush don't work and to replace it would be just as expensive as buying a new one

                    The Best
                    I purchased this vacuum a month ago after using a friends for some cleaning projects, and I’m so glad I did.

                    Best Vacuum ever owned
                    This is by far the best vacuum I’ve owned. Suction is very powerful and picks up everything. It’s only 1 month old and will update in 1 year

                      2nd time around quality less than the 1st
                      Bought this to replace exact same model that I’ve had for many, many years. Some negative changes - (1) cord is shorter, (2) noisier, (3) fewer accessories included, (4) handle tilts out of upright too easily …crashes to floor if your not holding on to it, (5) and of course it’s more expensive. But, it still works better than any other I’ve had. Just expected it to be the same as before or maybe a bit better. Disappointed it was less than my old one.

                        My favorite vacuum
                        We have had this vacuum for about 11 years. It stopped working due to damage to the cord (I think my dog may have gone after it). However, it is my favorite vacuum because of the divers functions of it and it is easy to clean and de-clog. I also really like that I can easily clean the filters. After 10+ years I have only purchased new filters once. I will say that the plastic is not indestructible. Somehow we ended up with a crack that turned into a hole, but nothing tape didn't fix.

                          a workhorse sweeper
                          I bought this sweeper about 7 years ago and it still functions very well. Theperformance is AMAZING! The only part that I have had to replace is the hose. This vacuum is used everyday and also for on the job as well. I would definitely purchase another one, and I have recommended this product to many friends, with four friends purchasing the same vacuum, and they are quite please with their purchase. Thank you SHARK.

                            I've had this vaccum for about eight years . I have no complaints it has been a cleaning machine . I will stay if you don't ever clean your vaccum you can expect it will not last very long. I wash the foam filter and clean the brush roll etc. about four times a year . You have to keep it maintenance like anything else . Just now thinking of replacing it not sure just yet which one I'll try or when !!

                              Great vacuum!
                              This vacuum is a real performer! We vacuumed our carpet with our old machine and then went over it again with the Rotator. It almost made me ill seeing what our old machine was leaving behind.

                              Does a great job until the brush motor stops worki
                              I have had three Shark vacuums over the past 12 years. The same thing happened to all three, the sweeper motor stops working. Believe it is a problem with the electrical connection because it works on and off until it finally just dies. Can’t find anyone to repair. This has happened two several friends. I don’t think I’ll purchase any more Sharks because I believe they have a real issue with the sweeper motor connection. I was a Electrical Engineer and have tried fixing the three I purchased plus friends units. Very hard to diagnose.

                                This is the best vacuum we’ve ever had. We have 3 girls in our house, all with long and thick hair. This does the job and gets everything off the carpet and leaves it looking so clean. And it’s lightweight too which makes it easy to vacuum the whole house and not feel like you just got hit by a bus!

                                  I love this vacuum. Mine though is about 6 years old and a piece where the hose sticks into the vacuum broke off☹️ Otherwise I’d give it a five it’s been reliable, durable easy to clean. Went to replace the vacuum and oh how the price has gone up!!! It’s ax good buy and I would recommend this sweeper

                                    I loved this vacuum but motor just gave out all of a sudden. I kept all filters and hoses clean! Was very surprised giving the cost!

                                      ok, here's the thing...i don't leave reviews, i certainly don't leave reviews for products i bought 4 years ago...but this vacuum compels me to just that. This machine has been awesome, every. single. day. I thought i was settling for this vacuum because i couldn't afford the bigger name unit that was twice as much...but i am so glad i bought this one. I love it. in a world full of disappointing appliances, this one constantly surprises me with it's quality, versatility, and general usefullness.

                                        Same problem
                                        I love the vacuum and how well it functions and the features. I bought my first Shark Vacuum and was pleased while under warranty they replaced the hose two times, and the lift off canister for me because the wand housing area gave way and would no long hold the wand in place for floor vacuuming. Shark did eventually replace the whole vacuum for me again when the wand housing gave way because the part was no longer available. This is the unit I have now and once again the wand housing has given way again and I see that part is no longer available. Because I like the way the vacuum operates and because of their warranty, I will probably buy another Shark Vacuum. However, I do hope they have improved the durability of the wand housing area.

                                          I have owned mine since 2013. Nothing has broken but did have an overheating issue. When I called I was instructed how to resolve the issue and it has been great since. Hope I didn't jinx myself!
