Powerful, Easy to Use & Cleans Exceptionally Well

We’ve been using this Shark DetectPro Lift-Away vacuum for about a month, and we’re very happy with it. The suction power is excellent and it picks up dust, dirt, and debris effortlessly. One feature we especially love is the light indicator—it clearly shows areas that still need cleaning and lets us know when the floor is actually clean, which is surprisingly helpful. The vacuum is easy to maneuver, works well on different floor surfaces, and leaves the house looking noticeably cleaner. Overall, it’s a powerful, well-designed vacuum that makes cleaning quicker and more effective. Highly recommended!

Fantastic, powerful vacuum!

Great Vacuum! Would highly recommend, it's very powerful! I chose this one because it said it was good on carpets and I needed for carpets on the upstairs of my house and it did not disappoint. It picks up so much that I didn't even see was actually there.

Highly recommend!!!

This vacuum cleaner exceeded my expectations. It's probably one of the best I've ever owned. It does beyond the job. If you wanna clean home, I highly recommend it not only a home. I also clean my car with this wonderful vacuum and it leaves it spotless no hairs left behind and the detection is everything.

Light but strong!

I'm a big fan of Shark Vacuum machines. This is the third one that I've had. I love it because it sucks really strong as well as the odor neutralizer which spread fresh smell afterwards. I'm impressed because its light weight and easy to clean. However the when I press unlock image to release the handle tube, I was scratched a few times because of the sharp edge. Just be careful and it will be ok. Overall this is a good product that I highly recommend to everyone.

Does not work on small rugs.

I received this one as an upgrade because my other one had issues and they no longer carried that one. Not sure an upgrade would describe this one. The detector is nice and vacuum is very lightweight but I what is the most annoying is using this one smaller rugs. It constantly sucks the edges up which makes it difficult to vacuum. I would not suggest buying this if you have a lot of small rugs to vacuum. Otherwise it seems to work fine.

Powerful, LightweightVacuum on Pet Hair and Dirt

I upgraded my Shark Navigator Lift-Away upright vacuum, which I purchased about 8 years ago. I am a fan of the Shark upright vacuums and this one has not disappointed. I have 2 dogs + 2 cats and this vacuum can keep up with all the pet hair. It's lighter than my older version and the 2 brush system picks up all the small dirt or hair. My only small gripe is the cord is shorter than my previous version. I have to unplug to move from room to room, where previously, I did not.

Good buy

I bought this vacuum in place of my other Shark vacuum which I purchased two years ago, and is still under warranty, but stopped sucking up. The company is currently working with me. However, I have a two floor home and keep one vacuum upstairs so I don't have to lug it up and down. That is also a Shark and much older. It still works wonderfully. While I am impressed with the suction on the Shark Detect Pro Upright vacuum, the detector does get conflicted when going from hardwood to tile. Also small rugs, like bathroom rugs, are difficult to do no matter what setting. Nevertheless, it does its job very well so far and I do like the side lighting.

Misleading Title

Overall I do love this vacuum. However it is NOT a true lift away. The full body cannot be taken off to use the large power head under beds and such. It does lift off the the wand comes with it and will detract from but DOES NOT have power in it to operated the main power head. This is a very misleading title. My last shark upright I had for 10 years or more, and lifted off to be used under beds. Can't even use the small power attachment as the wind had no power plug on it. So disappointed!! Tried to add pictures but site wouldn't let me for some reason.

Hi there, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad to hear you've enjoyed your vacuum overall, but we're sorry to learn that the Detect Pro Upright Vacuum did not meet your expectations regarding the Lift-Away feature. We understand your concerns, especially after having a previous upright that allowed you to detach the pod and continue using the main floor nozzle under furniture. The Detect Pro Upright's Lift-Away design functions differently, and we can appreciate how the product name may have led to different expectations based on your past experience. We'd like the opportunity to review your concerns further and ensure you're getting the most out of your vacuum. Our team can also help clarify the unit's features and available attachments. https://support.sharkninja.com/contact-us Sincerely, Shark Home

Not worth the money, very disappointing!

Succion is very inefficient, the different modes are useless. Very heavy, hard to manipulate. Cord very short.
