Some disappointing features
Bought this a few weeks ago to replace a previous Shark model. It picks up well but there are three drawbacks: Previous model lift away system was just the dust body, the wand being attached to the motor head enabling easy hoovering under beds etc. This model does not allow this- the wand attaches into the dust body . This is a highly retrograde step and limits the functionality of the machine. The flex is very stiff and this makes it clumsier to handle and stow. The vacuum cleaner is significantly louder than the previous one. So I’m somewhat disappointed with this new model although within its limitations it works well.

Great little vacuum
I purchased this as my old Dyson really wasn't doing the job anymore. Its nice and light , easy to manoeuvre and is almost self propelled. Ideal for me at my age! Only downside is the cable which other people have mentioned otherwise it would be a 5star

Got this to replace our vax pet vacuum
and the 1st use it picked up lots that the vax didnt. I seem really well made and work a treat. Great on pet hair. We are really happy with it so far.

Great product and price was good.
The power and smart cleaning are fantastic. It automatically adjusts for my carpets and hard floors, catching all kinds of debris and dust effortlessly. I don’t even have pets, but I’d still recommend it to anyone—it’s just a powerful, easy-to-use vacuum that works brilliantly for any home.

Fantastic suction
Wish I’d bought one earlier. The suction is great. Carpets look like new after hoovering. Great that it changes from carpet to hard floor automatically. You can lift the cylinder off to do the stairs, which makes it easier. The only downside is how hard the electric cable is. Hopefully it’ll loosen up with use, but it wouldn’t put me off buying it.

Great!
Love my new shark ! Looks good and really picks up everything! Only negative the flex is really stiff plastic rather than a more flexible rubber like material

Great vacuum in every sense
I have a cordless Shark at the moment and as great as it is, I feel the suction from a corded surpasses it. The design makes it easy to manoeuvre as the head is swivels. Taking the compartment off to be able to clean strairs eleviates the stretching of the hose and splitting. Great for pet hair.

Sturdy with string suction
Swapped the usual cordless vacuum for a plug in and the difference is unreal, the suction is more powerful and this model detects if you are on flat or carpeted surface. It is detaches so you can do stairs easily, only thing I would change is the emptying as it’s a bit fiddly. Otherwise highly recommend product.

Impressed
This is ithe 3rd shark j have bought. I purchased a few days before Xmas and I was surprised yk receive next day delivery. The vacuum is all I expected and more. It's powerful and brings the carpet pile up very nicely. It's really good at automatically changing itself for different flooring and is easy to manoeuvre around corners. The stair attachment works as well as the main unit too. O really I'm very impressed,. My carpets are looking a lot better.
