Good luck emptying this vacuum!
Works well but good luck getting the dirt cup emptied. Advertised as 'hands free' emptying, it is anything but. Tug, pull, yank until it opens and spills all over you. Terrible design.

Flawed mechanics
Mechanism for opening canister doesn't work. I bought this in 2024 and had problems from the first time I tried to empty the cannister. Never has released properly and requires a screw driver to open it now just so I can empty the canister.

I love my sharks, just not this one
I bought this about 2 days ago, and I can honestly say that this one does not impress me… not even a little… I stand by my sharks, I love them, my boyfriend and I battle over who’s is better, he’s a Dyson fan, but this vacuum leaves me very upset. Would I buy again or recommend to my friend or family? No, I wouldn’t.

Works great and so happy with it.
The first one I bought would not charge, tried a new charger and that did not work. You immediately sent me a new one and it works wonderfully.

A Long Hair Must
I'm obsessed with this vacuum. I've broken several vacuum belts (standard, old school upright, corded style) in the past with my long, thick hair. Not with this compact, light weight wonder! The way those little yellow balls roll hair into neat and tidy "tumbleweeds" that eject right out with its easy to empty dust cup is awesome! And powerful enough to suck up the ...

Pet hair cleaning pro! Strong and versatile!
My pet pug Benny leaves hair all over the place but this vacuum has made cleaning our furniture very easy. The vacuum isn’t too loud and strong enough to get those stubborn hairs out of the seating. So far it’s been highly durable and consist with its performance. This one is super nice and convenient!! Highly Recommend!

Redesign or use better materials
“What a miracle!” I thought when I got this, that it would get the kids to clean up a little in the kitchen; they were so excited to use it. Unfortunately after one use by my son, the nozzle broke where the attachment goes in. He is small and not that strong and just bumped up against a chair leg. I have a Vitamix blender made of some kind of plastic that I am sure can ...

Poorly made & faulty workmanship
This handheld vacuum didn't even last 6 months before breaking. The plastic part where you put the attachments cracked 2 months after I purchased it. It was not due to normal wear and tear either, because it was practically brand new. The plastic is very flimsy. I had a previous vacuum like this, and the same thing happened. Unfortunately, SHARK does not stand behind th...

Great vacuum for kitty litter spills.
Best handheld vacuum I've found so far. Use it to vacuum up spilled litter from kitty litter boxes. Works great.

Great product!
This does exactly what I needed it to do! I keep it in a small location and use it daily so I don't have to get out the larger vacuum.

Almost Perfect
I have several Shark vacs (corded, battery, handheld & upright) and they all work perfectly but each with their own "quirks". The o lyrics problem with this one is that the dust cup won't open when the button is pressed. If I remove the dust cup and press a bit harder on the button it will pop open but not when attached to the vac. This is a nuisance but not a serious d...

Horrible design. Unusable after 8 months.
Love this little handheld. Or should say I did love it. Very powerful. Perfect for what I need. However, I’ve had it for about 8 months and the plastic bit that holds the attachments in place has cracked leaving it unusable. Really not acceptable at all. Very disappointing. Will not buy again nor recommend.

Great but need stronger end part
I would give this a five if I did not have to keep replacing a part. The clear plastic tip cracks easy. I deal with it until it gets two bad. But over all it works great. Needs a stronger design to the tip.
