Powerfull
One day before using this vacuum cleaner for the first time, I did some cleaning with my old vacuum, and this is everything I picked up with the Shark. It’s super powerful and left my floors and carpets very clean. It’s a bit heavy, but I used it for about 30 minutes and didn’t end up too tired. I liked it—good purchase and a great discount.

Not suitable for a home with shedding pets
I LOVED my old shark vacuum but it was falling apart. My husband surprised me with this one and I was so excited but this one is terrible. I have a pure Great Pyrenees and mixed pyr with anatolian shepherd who shed a lot. This vacuum does not hold up like the other one. The price is ridiculous for a vacuum that can't hold up from the beginning. The fin got torn up pret...

Hi there, Thank you for sharing your experience. It sounds like you’ve been a loyal Shark customer and were excited about this upgrade, so it’s disappointing to hear it hasn’t met your expectations, especially with the heavy shedding from your Great Pyrenees and Anatolian mix. Those breeds can definitely put a vacuum to the test! The issues you mentioned with the fin and brushroll clogging are not what we want for your cleaning routine. Thank you again for your feedback. It’s invaluable in helping us improve for pet owners like you. Kind Regards, Shark Clean US.

Good Condo Session
I have a 525 sq. ft. Condo, so this meets my needs for Cleaning, Versatility, and Storage. I like that I can get the accessories I want for my needs. And filters/ HEPA as needed.
I would recommend this to a friend. I scored a total of 52% off for Black Friday.

Purchased this a month ago and overall very pleased. Replacing an older shark upright that we ran the wheels off of. Comparing the two the only part I like better about the older unit is the wand has a LED light when removed from the main unit and the New unit does not. It is not a deal breaker but I did not realize how helpful it is when cleaning an area with little to...

Heavier than I thought it would be. Hard to put pieces back together especially the dirt collection bin. Rubber seal at bottom of the wand is falling off. Expected better from Shark

I love this vacuum! It reminds me of my old Apex (loved it, had two, please bring it back) -- but better. I was worried it would be heavy but because it is motorized it is very easy to use and I do not notice the weight. It performs well on floors and carpets. My one nitpick is that the levers can be a little sticky. I can live with that tiny issue given the great perf...

Not worth the money. The first roller jams every thing and jams the roller. I prefer the liftoff. Also doesn’t have a lot of attachments. The lift off attachments don’t fit this model.

Great vacuum
Had 3 dyson vacuums before I purchased this shark . I am pleased that I made this purchase. This vacuum out performs the dyson and is quieter.

Powerful
The vacuum is awesome. It's light weight and can be configured in several different ways depending on the project.If you research vacuums, you will see the Shark is at the top. This is our 2nd Shark and can't imagine us going anywhere else.

Excellent sweeper
Just got my Stratos. Easy to put together and cleans well! The only issue that I have is that when you remove the wand, the light does not shine like my last one. For that - one star removed.. I could see what I was sweeping. That was an excellent feature! Needs to put the light back on the wand.

Fantastic Vacuum
The new Shark Stratos is a big improvement over the 14 year old vacuum it replaced. It is significantly more powerful, holds more so I don’t have to empty it as often, the DuoClean PowerFiins really clean deep into carpets/rugs and the odor neutralizer keeps it smelling fresh. Does a fantastic job on tile floors, rugs and carpets.

Pros:’

- bagless

- great suction and threads/hairs do not get stuck in the roller!
Cons:
- worry about long term wear since it’s virtually all plastic
- heavy to push, although if you hold the canister unit in one hand and vacuum with the oth...
