This vacuum sounds like a jet engine. You would think it’d have better suction being as loud as it is, but it’s about as expected for a stick vacuum. I hoped for more since it is a Shark, but instead of great suction, I find myself needing hearing protection to operate this.
The motor gets very hot while using it, after prolonged use you may want to use an oven mitt. I took a photo of the temperature reading 155 degrees, and that was after about 15 minutes of use with a clean canister and filters. The fact that it gets so hot in the area your hand goes makes it almost unusable for vacuuming more than one room.
The suction area of the dust container gets clogged very easy and then prevents dirt from going into the dust canister area, which makes for frequent emptying and linger clean times.
Overall, I would not purchase this vacuum. I love shark, but I’d find a different multi-floor vacuum.
The Roomba would find a hair every couple minutes and stop. I did a deep vacuum with our Kirby and the Roomba still found hairs. It could not operate independently in my house and was more irritating than just vacuuming. So it went back.
The Kirby is great but I don't use it as much as I'd like due to the weight. I wanted something I would use more often especially for the main level which is vinyl and shows dirt immediately after vacuuming. I added a very gross picture to illustrate the collection of hair with this shark. And a picture of the brushes after vacuuming to show the lack of hair in them. Even the Kirby rollers can't handle our hair and we have to cut it out after each vacuuming.
I still hate vacuuming. But this shark is amazing for what I needed it for. It finally overcame the hair.
PLUS their Warranty is a joke as you have to be without a vacuum while they “repair” it. I WILL NEVER BUY SHARK AGAIN!!
It picks up a whole bunch of Dirt I didn't see in my Carpet which was was shocked about how much dirt was in my carpet and I was like wow but it was also Disgusting in to see all that dirt like sand In the container of the Shark Vacuum Cleaner!
Edit: 3 starts because suction power is good and item seems functional despite the missing parts, I have contacted seller and I am hopping they will fix the issue
I tried to return it, Amazon said I had to contact the manufacturer. The manufacturer said it’s supposed to shut down when it’s hot. So here I am, I think 3 months in, sitting on the floor waiting for the vacuum to cool and I still have to make payments on a garbage piece of machinery.
Why didn’t I return it you ask? Because my happy a$$ thought I didn’t need the packaging and tossed it. I was so excited to get my new vacuum. Needless to say, lesson learned.
end result she wanted me to purchase the new motor which is pretty much the entire unit ...why would I want the same model that's burning up after a few uses I told her put me on the call list for when it's recalled and considered dangerous ...says 90 days return policy it has not been 90 days still looks like a brand new vacuum other then the burned filter when you take the front off or turn it on and it screeches
