Verified Purchase

Generally pleased

It works well and is very convenient but I can’t do the whole first floor of my house on one charge.

Great vacuum cleaner

This is the best vacuum cleaner I’ve ever had. It has a very long battery life l can vacuum my 3200 square foot house on one charge.

Great product

I have a collie that sheds constantly and this vacuum so far is the best I have owned. Portable and powerful and the automatic empty is great. So far I would highly recommend it to anyone. Great product and quick delivery.

Great at picking up dog hair and other dirt

I received this to replace a Shark 4000 series that got a crack in the handheld section. the IP3251 is so much better in ease of operation and cleaning.

Difficult to Use

Purchase 2 weeks ago. Usage has been very frustrating as the roller head continues to stick even on very short nap rugs. If makes standard vacuuming very difficult.

Great features

This model has a lot of power compared to the smaller models. Able to clean the whole house in a single charge. The lighted hood makes it easy to see dirt and the power detect is a great feature.

Second vacuum, first one stopped working

We are having issues with this new replacement. It will stop working in the middle of vacuuming after just a few minutes into the task. Also, unlike the original Shark, this one will stop on one of our area rugs.

Best cordless vacuum

Great vacuum. It is used every day and is the best cordless vacuum. It is not my only shark product I have others. Never disappointed with a Shark product.

Perfect

It’s beyond perfect, Especially with our 4 grand cats staying with us, and shedding is always an issue. So light weight, love that it bends to get under furniture. Don’t change a thing,

returning

if you have dogs, this may be the worst vacuum for you. The hair just gets stuck in the 1st roller and if you take that off the vacuum doesn't pick up hair at all. it also just pushes hair around on rugs, it doesn't pick it up... going back to Dyson
