    Very good vacuum. Powerful and run time is adequate for all my needs. No debris tangles up in the cleaning head, and the self cleaning feature is fantastic. Very light and easy to handle. Best vacuum I’ve ever owned.

    I was hopeful that this Shark Cordless Stick Vac would be a suitable replacement for my Dyson V11 Animal, which I love but have had two different models have the trigger switch go bad just a few months after the warranty expired, and Dyson refused to offer assistance even though it appeared to be a common problem that they’ve now corrected on some models. Unfortunately, although this Shark Vac has some better features than my Dyson, it did not live up to the Dyson when it comes to cleaning carpets. The positives of the Shark: Great on bare floors; self-emptying function (love that!); lighted non-tangling roller brush; fairly light weight; flex option to assist in cleaning under furniture; and an on-off switch instead of having to hold in the trigger button like on the Dyson. The negatives: Non-adjustable stick (I’m 6 foot tall and had to bend over slightly while vacuuming, which was very uncomfortable); did not easily clean dog fur on carpets, resulting in me having to go over the same spot several times and/or bending over to loosen the fur from the carpet; roller does not cover a wide surface area; motor is somewhat loud; and battery life is less than advertised, although that’s common on most cordless vac. Weighing both the pros and cons, I’d say that if you’re under 6’ tall and using this mainly on bare floors, or have no pets that shed, it’ll probably suit your needs. Otherwise, you may want to keep shopping.

      Hi there, thank you for your review and for bringing this to our attention. We’re disappointed to hear about your experience, and we truly appreciate the time you took to share such a detailed comparison. This isn’t our usual standard, and we completely understand how frustrating it must have been, especially with the issues you mentioned, such as difficulty cleaning carpeted areas, challenges picking up dog fur, the non‑adjustable stick height being uncomfortable at 6’ tall, the narrower roller width, louder motor, and the battery life feeling shorter than expected. At the same time, we’re glad to hear you found value in features like the bare‑floor performance, self‑emptying functionality, illuminated non‑tangling roller, flex capability, lightweight design, and the on/off switch. Feedback like this never goes unacknowledged. Instead, it helps us improve and better serve you and others in the future. We genuinely appreciate you sharing both the pros and cons, as it gives us the opportunity to learn, refine, and most importantly find a way to make things right for you and turn this experience around. Kind regards, Shark Clean

    I like how the battery lasts for at least an hour on the economy setting but do not like that it gets easily clogged with pet hair and other small items. It dies great light cleaning when I am in a hurry. It’s easy to maneuver and empty.

    Shark Cordless

    I love my vacuum. I love all of my shark products. The only thing I would say needs improvement is the upholstery attachments. They do not clean my couches well and there isn't a place to attach them like my corded shark vacuum.

    This was a door buster Black Friday purchase and I absolutely love it. Easy to push and holds the charge while the whole house is vacuumed. And the fact that it’s cordless and self empty makes this the perfect vacuum for me.

    I’ve had it for a week- so far so good. Can’t say how it will be long term. I will say that the instruction pamphlet wasn’t very detailed - that could use some improvement, But the vacuum itself seems great.

    I recently purchased the shark cordless vacuum, and it does the job. Vacuum has a lot of power and suction. Easy to maneuver and when you put it on dock it empty automatically. Makes cleans a breeze.

    We own this vacuum and my wife is obsessed with it! It has great suction, and is light enough to maneuver around with. The auto empty is a game changer, thus why I bought another one for my mother.

    I’ve been using the Shark Detect Clean & Empty Cordless Vacuum for a while now, and it has completely changed how I clean my home. The auto-empty base is a game-changer — no more dumping dust after every use, and the 2L capacity means I can go weeks without touching it. Huge plus for allergies. The Detect technology really works. It automatically adjusts suction depending on dirt levels and floor type, and you can actually see it respond in real time. It picks up fine dust, pet hair, and larger debris effortlessly, especially on hard floors and low-pile carpet. Battery life is impressive. I can clean my entire house on a single charge, and the MultiFlex wand makes it easy to reach under furniture without bending or moving heavy pieces. The vacuum feels lightweight but still very powerful. Filtration is excellent — the HEPA system noticeably improves air quality, which is important for my household. It’s also surprisingly quiet for how strong it is. Yes, it’s an investment, but the performance, smart features, and convenience justify the price. If you’re looking for a premium cordless vacuum that actually delivers, this one is 100% worth it. Highly recommend!
