Great Iteration of the Model

We had an earlier model Shark and have bought this one. The new one has a larger dirt canister which can hold more. However, its interior contours make it slightly more difficult to clean - brush has trouble reaching some areas. There is no headlight. The vacuum seems more powerful than the old model. They simplified the air pathway so the power-head empties directly into a corrugated hose which attaches in the back - right side of the power head, travels up behind the vacuum across a support bracket and into the canister on the left side. This arrangement allows easier detachment for using the wand (which is no longer part of the handle) and the hose is longer than on the older model providing more reach. At the same time, the air pathway is fairly direct which preserves a strong suction and allows for easier access to clean the machine when necessary. Also, this hose arrangement puts the hose through less sharp bending than the old model which should protect the hose from rupture with use. The power head, no longer integrally piping air as did the old model, consequently has a wider range of turning rotation for mobility around furniture. The detachment buttons for the canister and other points are simpler and uniform compared to the old model. The power button is a simpler three position switch for "Off," "On Floor" and "On Carpet." It is located on top of the canister section on the left side. Personally, I would still like the headlight feature that the old model has for illuminating dark room corners, but overall, this iteration is well-designed and incorporates definite performance and ergonomic improvements.

A very versatile tool

These Shark products are great. This is my second one (I now have one upstairs and one downstairs). Terrific suction and with the "rotator" function, it's easy to get under some furniture like tables. Emptying the dust collector is simple, and there's no bag to replace. The attachments are also great. I especially like the suction-driven brush attachment, which makes vacuuming furniture and stairs much easier. You won't find a better machine for the money.

Good vac but?

I'm a professional house cleaner I own several vacuums. This one picks up well but not as good as my eureka or Hoover it is also alittle top heavy and i find the hose systems are cumbersome at best I bought it to use at customers homes but decided to just keep it at home as it wouldn't be easy to transport with attachments

Do like this.. took a little getting used to as we had an Oreck so this one is a little top heavy at first but suction is great. Also like the on-board attachments.. don't have to go get them to use them!! Add the fact we got it on a Black Friday special .. Whoppee!!

Good buy

Would like a place for the handheld to be stored on the unit ( if there is I can't figure out where to put it). Not a big deal at all. Otherwise no complaints.

It's okay

Needs a cord rewind Pet fur becomes jammed up easily in the two part canister Hose and tools are clunky, long reach yes but bad for cleaning things that are close No home for stair attachment?

Suction

I've been putting off getting a new vacuum and wanted a Shark. I'm glad I finally got one. I had just vacuumed with the old one and when I used the Shark I still filled the tank with dog hair !!

It's Ok

It is kind of heavy and hard to push around. I don't love it Thought I might like it better than my Dyson Animal...I don't. Wish I got the one with the lift off feature. Probably would have liked that one better. Too late now.

SUPER POWER

I bought 2 of these, one for myself and one for my daughter. We both have cats and dogs. This vacuum will pick up anything, bye bye pet hair. Just be careful with it, it might also suck up the cat!
