    I was looking forward for a vaccuam cleaner. I live in an apartment and the entire apartment floor is covered in thick carpet. I was so confused which one to buy, took help from ChatGPT and finally selected this one in my budget. And guess what! It made an amazing job. It works good in both hard floor or carpet floors. Wiped out all the dusts. I loved it. Highly recommended.

    Just bought this yesterday on sale and wow. I have dogs and just cleaned with my Dyson Animal the day before. I thought I would try it out when I brought it home and just kept sucking up pet hair that the Dyson left behind. Great on wood floors and carpets. Stairs are never easy but this worked well. Was impressed with how easy it was to get under furniture. I would buy this over and over again.

    We had the prior version, which was already one of the better units for long pet hair (although we had issues with more frequent upkeep) and had tried a couple of other brands to see how well they worked...the Stratos out cleaned and handled our long dog hair far better than any others in this price range!

    The most powerful suction I’ve ever had with a vacuum. Easy to use lift away feature. Only bad thing I’ve found is the hose isn’t as long as I’d like it to be especially when you the lift away feature.

    I bought this for my mom when her previous shark we thought broke (turned out to be a broken hose on the floor head) and she loves the dual clean roller since the house is 50% carpet 50% hard floor and my parents have 3 dogs that shed a lot. Some other vacuums she would have issues getting the fur off of the kitchen floor because it’s a weird flooring type and the fur kind of sticks, but the dual clean roller does a great job of getting the hair off of that.

    Alrighty, I love this vacuum so far. It took me several weeks of research to choose a vacuum. The price of a good vacuum held me back, but I was so happy when the Shark Stratos went on sale. The Stratos picks up well. We have laminate, carpeting, and large rugs throughout our home (over 3800sqft). Two of our rugs are very thick piled. With the old Shark, from over a decade ago, I’d get stuck or tangled in the rugs. Using my new Stratos, I’m able to maneuver with minimal difficulty using the height adjustment switch…it works! I did break a little sweat, but it was well worth it. The other medium piled rugs and carpet had no difficulty being vacuum with the Stratos. I didn’t get stuck or entangled. It was also easy to empty and wipe down after use. The dirt fluffs that came up with the Stratos was shocking. I vacuumed 4 large rooms and had no idea that we had that much dirt still sitting in the carpet and rugs from the old shark. My only con: I wish there had been a 4th adjustment for height that would have raised the vacuum an eighth to a quarter of an inch higher to add more ease of use for high pile and thick pile carpeting or rugs.

    The Shark vacuum is a game-changer for cleaning enthusiasts. It boasts powerful suction that effortlessly tackles dirt, dust, and pet hair on all floor types. The DuoClean technology is a standout feature, ensuring deep cleaning and even hair removal. The lightweight design and versatile attachments make it easy to maneuver and clean hard-to-reach areas. The Shark vacuum simplifies cleaning. If you're looking for a high-performance, user-friendly vacuum, the Shark is an excellent choice.

    I bought this vacuum recently and it has been great. I really like the fact that hair and strings doesn’t get caught in the roller brush. The lift away feature helps with cleaning the staircase.

    We finally ended up retiring our 10-year-old, Shark Professional to the basement and this model ended up being the one we landed on. A few weeks in, and we couldn't be happier. The vacuum is easy to maneuver and powerful, and the canister is very easy to clear. Cable length is solid, and the detachment feature was something we looked for in our new model. It works well, and allows for easy cleaning around nooks and crannies.

    This Shark vacuum exceeded my expectations. The suction is very strong, and it picks up dust, pet hair, and debris effortlessly from both carpet and hard floors. It’s lightweight and easy to maneuver, and the attachments are super useful for corners and furniture. Cleaning the dust bin is simple and mess-free. Definitely a great purchase!

    I've owned Shark products for years love them dependable and they actually work. This Vacuum is no exception suction is incredible. Really like the new hair no wrap hair roller system too. The only con is it is a little heavier than the other models, but not enough for me not to use it.

    Works very well on multiple floor surfaces. Much easier to switch between floor surfaces, control is located right in the handle much easier than previous model. Lift feature is much easier, better balance and comes apart much easier old version had a heavy base that would fall over and make the lift away feature less appealing. Much improved on this version.

    When I tell you this is the best vacuum I have ever had, I am so impressed with its ability to pickup everything, including dust. I love the scent pod feature and being able to easily break it down to a smaller vacuum for stairs. I’ve had it awhile now and it’s so easy to use I recommend it to all my friends!
