  • Overall a great sweeper would recommend for pet owners!!
Style: Rotator Professional Lift-Away
Great suction power cleans very well and was easy to put together out of the box. Not as heavy as some other the other brands I have had in the past so that is nice but still a bit heavy although the flow is very smooth. The only thing which is minor to me it would be nice to have an auto-coil cord but think that may be due to the design for different types of usage. The wand easily dispatches as well as the mid piece so you can use like a hand vacuum, also the collection unit also easily lifts out. I have been using for about two weeks the light is good, hasn't clogged and easy to clean the filter. Durability I can't review yet we will see a year but overall very happy with the purchase. ... show more

  • Definitely my new first choice.
Style: Rotator Professional Lift-Away
I’ve never taken the time to write a review before but I decided I needed to for this vacuum. To start, I hate cleaning, period. I do it because I don’t like a messy house but I absolutely dread having to clean. When the vacuum arrived I was excited because it’s something shiny and new for the house. The box was in great condition and it was a speedy delivery and arrived before it was supposed to. I opened the box and everything was individually wrapped and well padded which made me happy. I started unwrapping and didn’t even look at the instructions to put it together because it was that easy(I did check the instructions after to find that I put it together right). In the box along with the vacuum we’re the crevice tool, the dusting brush, the straight suction floor nozzle and the upholstery tool. The straight suction floor nozzle fits all the way under my couch and my recliner which makes it much easijer to clean. Second, my one year old son is deathly afraid of vacuums and when I turned this on he didn’t even flinch. He just sat there and watched it because it’s not super noisy like most vacuums. He was ok as I went toward him slowly with it and didn’t scream like normal which made me one happy momma. Third, I have mostly hard floors and only two carpeted rooms in my house and I started vacuuming with the brush roll off and was just absolutely amazed by what it picked up, and by that I mean everything. This vacuum picked up all the dirt and crumbs and even the goldfish that were underneath the high chair. We also have an abc floor mat and I went over that and it again picked up everything. So I went ahead and vacuumed the living room, dining room and kitchen with no problems. I didn’t have to unplug and move outlets because the cord was long enough to reach all of it. I looked at the dirt on the floor of the mud room from everyone walking in and out and then looked at the vacuum and continued on and it picked up all of it no problem. I went to empty it and there is a latch at the bottom and top of the dirt compartment which made it so much easier to empty and I didn’t have to get my hands dirty. After that I turned the brush roll on and went to vacuum the two carpeted bedrooms (which had been vacuumed the night before) and to my surprise it picked up so much. I thought the carpets were clean but on no, the shark rotator changed my mind about that one! By the time I was done the dust cup was about half full. My old vacuum definitely wasn’t doing the job correctly. Finally, the vacuum basically pulls it’s self along the carpet so I didn’t have to fight with it to move or turn because it goes so easily. With this vacuum I don’t have to work to clean my floors and it’s a whole new type of clean in my house. It takes maybe 20 minutes to do my entire house which is astonishing. Before it would take me 40 minutes with sweeping and wrenching my old vacuum across the floor. Thank god for someone recommending this vacuum for us when we were talking about getting a new one. I will be sticking with this vacuum for life if I can. **Update time! It's been almost a year and a half that I've had this vacuum now and it's still amazing! The suction has never failed me and it still picks up like a pro. I still amaze people with how much it can pick up when they watch my now 2 1/2 year old make a mess and me grab the vacuum to clean it up. I've convinced 3 other people to buy these and they absolutely love their vacuum and swear by it now too. I still 100% recommend this vacuum to anyone that mentions buying a new vacuum. Still worth every penny. ... show more

My old Shark Lift-Away needed to be replaced after 20 years, so I went with another Shark. The price was fantastic. It was very easy to set up, does a great job and seems to be lighter than my old model. I like that this one has a light in the front so that you can really see the dirt and dust. The cord length and suction are both good. I would highly recommend! ... show more

  • Good and bad of the vacuum
Style: Rotator Professional Lift-Away
I am getting use to the vacuum. It’s much heavier than the other shark I have. The cord is shorter. I did debate to return it or not. But, it does vacuum with power. I do like the vacuum but it did not meet all my expectations. It only came with one filter so I will be ordering more filters. It is a good vacuum but not perfect . ... show more

  • Shark
Style: Rotator Professional Lift-Away
Having grown frustrated with myself for only finding time and motivation to write a review when I'm disappointed with something, I wanted to seize this opportunity to sing the praises of this remarkable machine!! We bought this vacuum to replace an Oreck Touch which had failed . . . again. Odd thing: I've always regarded Oreck as a 'top shelf' product, and heard good things about their customer service -- while I've always perceived Shark to be a cheaply made, lower-end product... I have been proven profoundly wrong on both counts! While I have had no need to interact with Shark's customer service so far, I couldn't be more pleased with the thoughtful overall design, imaginatively useful features, and surprising feel of quality I'm experiencing with this vacuum. One of our foremost gripes with our prior vacuum had been its absurd vulnerability to clogging if you ever tried to have it pick up anything larger than an eyelash... (Yeah, okay... That's a bit of hyperbole -- but even being more careful about what we expected it to pick up than we felt we needed to be, it would clog on virtually EVERY use.) THIS vacuum is proving a wonderful contrast to that experience! Last night I was using the wand to reach some dust-bunnies behind the toilet in my girls' bathroom and inadvertently sucked up one of those protective plastic caps you need to remove from a stick of antiperspirant before use. As I heard it get sucked up, I immediately thought, "Oh, crap! How much of this machine am I going to have to dismantle in order to find the spot where this thing will become trapped?!!" Following the suction path through the hoses and 'elbows', etc, I came up empty -- until I finally noticed the cap reposing in the dust container, 'comfortably' nestled into the dust and dog hair! THAT truly impressed me! Additionally, the headlights on the base are both well placed and bright enough to be of real use! Particularly on bare floors, where they illuminate any debris or hair, etc. amazingly well. This makes it easier to discern the areas of floor still in need of attention. And, even on bare floors, it does a terrific job of picking up whatever -- from pet hair to fine dust. The easily detachable wand makes grabbing debris behind dresser legs, etc a breeze. The ability to detach the handle portion of the hose FROM the wand makes use of the brush attachment (or furniture attachment) quick and easy to wield. Lamp shades and bases etc are receiving far more frequent (and quicker!) attention because this is so much easier than I'm used to! Oh, and it's SO much quieter than I've grown to expect! The dust container is easy to remove and empty. Opening at both ends, there are no cavities where hair can get trapped. (On our previous vacuum, this would ALWAYS require getting your hands filthy, necessitating digging well up into the container with your fingers to remove large wads of hair and dust trapped by the design of the inner cone). Every time I empty this, I am so pleased with how simple, quick and relatively clean the task is! Our last vacuum's filters became clogged after nearly every use. This vacuum's filter chamber has a sticker affixed to it recommending the filters be cleaned once every three months. And based on what I'm observing so far (nearly three weeks in), it looks like that will be about right. (I ended up literally throwing away our previous vacuum with three years left on its warranty. Though we had given those dang filters FAR more attention than they should have deserved--while there was VERY little discussion in their literature given to emphasizing that priority--the repair agent informed us that this second warranty repair for the same problem (loss of suction--even when the filters had just been cleaned--and a strong ozone odor) in a very short period of time, was being denied 'because we had failed to adequately service the filters'!! Already, the Shark is proving a vastly superior design, and I'm experiencing none of the frustration with the filters that had become 'par for the course' previously.) The "Lift Away" feature is a real bonus. By pressing one button, the canister (lighter in weight than I'd have expected) lifts away from the floor base to become a 'carry-along' unit, making reaching for cobwebs high on a wall or ceiling, etc a quick and simple task. And if a 'roll-along' canister vac is your preference, there is a thoughtfully designed wheeled-base provided for such use. Some reviews have noted this unit's propensity to tip over -- and if you're using the wand for reaching things while the vacuum is still in 'upright mode', that is true. But I haven't found that to be an issue if you're using the roll-around base. So far, the only "con" I can think of is that the canister portion of the vacuum is bulky enough to prevent it from reaching very far under furniture -- like say, a bed or coffee table. Given all the other upsides there are though, that seems a pretty small downside. And there is a full-width floor attachment that can be connected to the wand making reaching far under such items quite easy. So congratulations Shark! You're really changed my mind! I never thought I'd find myself gushing with enthusiasm over one of your products. But I'm really enjoying using this. I'm very impressed! You might have gotten a boost from our bitter experience with your competitor's product -- but I sincerely think you deserve nearly all the credit. This is a terrific machine! Well done! ___________________ Follow-up: About nine months later, and I still couldn't be happier with this machine! It still feels solid, performs incredibly well, and has been so easy to live with! Sometimes we buy things that look good at first blush, but it doesn't take long for them to start falling apart. NOT true with this vacuum! Even the pieces that usually bind or break, such as the small rollers on the leading edge of the pick-up head, are still fully intact and have never gotten bound with dog hair, like I believe every prior vacuum we've ever owned did. I'm still very impressed, Shark! Well done!!! ... show more

  • Well worth the investment!
Style: Rotator Professional Lift-Away
This is the second of this model we have purchased. The last one was 15+- years old, suction still strong until it rolled down some stairs. Plastic broke/cracked but motor till worked. Can say for sure they are durable. Easy to use especially the lift-off feature fro portability. Lighting could be a little brighter but we are oldER! These Shark vacuums pick up dirt out of the carpet that can't even be seen. Also have a Stratos and both are excellent. Keep an eye on all three filters. They do such a good job they fill up fast. Typically blow them off with air hose a couple times before replacing. Would definitely purchase either again! ... show more

  • Awesome sweeper
Style: Rotator Professional Lift-Away
I have owned two dysons. The first one was great, lasted about 14 years then I bought a new one it was absolute junk. It lasted about 3 years. I took a splurge and bought a third one the animal ball 3 one and I was shocked at how much worse it was, manufactured with plastic parts and I quickly returned it. I had been hesitant to buy a sweeper that was “lower” quality than a dyson but let me tell you I was wrong. This little vacuum rocks!! Great suction and feels so much better made and for less money not to mention it has a headlight!! I simply love it and am ashamed for being so hard headed as to not want to even look at the shark. The canister was easy to empty and just takes a little tug from the very bottom which was great because the dyson wouldn’t even latch closed. I honestly was glad to find a good excuse to return the dyson and try something different. Don’t fear the brush heads, they swept my floor better than its been swept for a long time. I swept my area rug with ease like it had self propelled motion but it doesn’t, but sure took me for a ride lol Thanks for the sweeper! ... show more

  • Best Vacuum
Style: Rotator Professional Lift-Away
I’ve bought many vacuums, all have had something designed wrong or just been outright inadequate from the description. This vacuum was impressive out of the box. Very maneuverable, very long power cord, suction was fantastic, profile is narrow enough to sit in the steps without having to hold onto while cleaning steps and the tools work great for edging and steps. Also being able to turn on/off the brush is a great feature that all vacuums should have as a safety feature. It’s worth the money. I know people have read these reviews only to be let down when they buy one, I’ve been there too often, but I don’t give out many reviews and thought this one definitely deserves a good review ... show more
