Hello AK, We definitely understand your concerns. We would like you to know that the Shark® DuoClean® Lift-Away Speed™ NV771 Upright Vacuum does include a variable suction control. This will help when vacuuming high-pile carpets and area rugs, rugs with fringe, or when cleaning delicate fabrics (such as curtains) with your accessories. You can slide the suction control toward MIN to lower the suction for better maneuverability. We hope this information helps. The Customer Support Team
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.yes there is a adjustable suction
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have two high pile plush rugs in my house, and I have no problem using this vacuum on them. The vacuum has a suction lever that you can adjust if it starts to pull or get stuck.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi AK, I have very plush high pile carpeting also. This Shark Lift-Away Speed pulled lotsa' loose napping from my carpet the very first time i used it. It alarmed me at first. It was not really hard to push as the front roller actually grabs your carpet and propels the unit. However, after the last five vacuumings there is very little nap in the dust bin now, just trash. There is an adjustment on the handle for the amount of suction. This baby is powerful. I went full suction at first, then lessened it by approximately a fourth. It still picks up debris and cleans thoroughly - it is also more maneuverable. You will adjust and get used to this powerful vacuum and so will your carpets. It does a fantastic job on hard surfaced flooring too.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I can’t find the adjustable suction control on this vacumn. All I see is the switch for carpet or floor.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It does have a roller shutoff and adjustable suction
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This vacuum has adjustable suction and if you switch it to floors instead of carpet mode the roller stops and it just has suction. I have an area rug that is mixed low and high in the design and this is the 1st vacuum I have owned that actually cleans the whole thing without getting stuck or not cleaning the short and long areas without have to adjust it. I love this vacuum.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I wouldnt recommend this vacuum for high pile plush carpet. Why? Because you'll experience the rollers getting stuck , cause of the high powerful suction. Carpet that are medium pile and lower I would recommend this vacuum. Also the roller doesnt come off, you'll have to use scissors. It also has adustable suction.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can shut the roller off by choosing the hard floor option. It also has an adjustable suction, but it doesn't seem to make a difference by adjusting it on long shag rugs. I can barely push the vacuum on the long shag rug. We have thick, medium length shag carpeting & it works well on that.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There IS adjustable suction from a slider in the handle. The roller I’m not sure about.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
