Customer Ratings & Reviews

It was terrible. Vacuum has issues within 2 uses and I was unable to exchange since it was over 15 days

Weak power, short battery life. Carpet beater bar clogs easily and dies. Not suitable for multi room space.

It broke only after months of use. Out of nowhere it just started making a really loud noise and then the next day it stopped all together.

Would be a good review if it was strong enough to pick up hair and dirt. Suction is reallly weak. I feel like i wasted my money. It was too late to return it by the time i tried to.

The suction on this model is poor. Better suction on previously owned/worn out Eureka cordless vacuum.

Does a good job with pet hair. It is a bit top-heavy. It’s the design. Gets heavy if you’re doing a lot of pick up, but for quick jobs, it’s good.

Poor quality , no longer working after using it for 1 month

This Vacuum is good for office or small task. The battery dies very fast not Matter how long I charge it.. not worth it..

Horrible. Doesn’t work after a week! Bought another one to see it did same thing.

I bought this Vacuum cleaner end of June, didn't open it until yesterday! Sunction is terrible unfortunately I cant return it! The reviews were great only yo be disappointed after the fact!

The Shark Rocket IX141 26 had the potential to be good cordless stick vac, but one particular design decision means it might not be worth considering if you intend to use it on stairs. [ The good ] - Great suction and brush power for a stick vac. It performed notably well at picking up pet fur entrapped in thick carpet pile. - Great maneuverability - Light-weight - Seems to be made of durable materials, with good construction quality - Quiet relative to the amount of cleaning power [ The bad ] I use a large corded vacuum cleaner for the main carpeted areas of my home, and then use a cordless stick vac for stairs, landing, other tight spots, and quick spot cleaning. Of those use cases, I most appreciate using stick vacs on stairs, where maneuvering a large corded vacuum becomes truly cumbersome. Unfortunately, however, unlike any other stick vac I’ve ever used prior, this stick vac is designed for the brush roller to not operate when the vac is in an upright position. Additionally, when pulled out of the upright position, it takes a moment for the brush roller to kick in. This makes it anywhere from cumbersome to quite difficult to use on narrow stairs when there are walls on both sides, which is the case for me. This can be partially alleviated by removing the wand and connecting the floor nozzle directly to the hand vac, though this requires progression from the base of the stairs upwards, and requires bending over a good amount. For this reason alone, if I had purchased this product, I would have returned it immediately for a refund. When emptying the dust cup, I regularly had clumps of dust, hair, and fur stick to the circular protrusion on the hatch, and at least once around the pre-filter, requiring manual--and dirty--intervention. This generally hasn’t been a problem on competing products I’ve used. The session duration afforded by the battery isn’t quite as good as other cordless stick vacs I’ve used (at least when primarily cleaning carpeted surfaces), and the charging time is rather poor as well. The vacuum neither comes with a charging station nor can it stand upright on its own (without purchasing the MultiFlex Under-Appliance Wand accessory that allows the canister to flex forward, thereby changing the center of mass). I had other minor nit-picks that would likely sound petty to mention. [ Conclusion ] The core strengths of this cordless stick vac could make it a good option for many people. However, one poor design choice regarding the floor nozzle (which contains the motorized brush) can make it difficult to use on stairs, which is not a problem I’ve seen in competing products. Since stairs are one of the best use cases for this type of product, my verdict is to pass on this model and look at alternative options.

Poor suction, wish i could return it. Would NOT buy again.

I had to return this. After a few times using it sounded like the motor was going out. Also , did not like how to store it or charge it.

The product has stopped working after 3 months after buying. Initially it worked fine but later it stopped picking up dirt. The product is very bad

Clogs all the time from just dog hair, doesn’t hold much in the canister. Constantly taking it apart to clear

Not the best. Low battery life. Suction mediocre at best

We bought this as the upgrade because we love our older Shark so much. Battery replacement was almost as much as a new unit so we just figured we would upgrade. Terrible idea. Despite what it says, hair is wrapped constantly and you have to cut it off. Find another vacuum friends. This one’s a lemon.

I returned it. Seemed like a good quality vacuum, I've owned a more expensive Shark and was happy with it. Bought it for quick sweep up in the kitchen, but it wouldn't even pick small crumbs up form the hard surface floor. Worked a little better on an area rug, but no good at all on hard surface.

This Shark Rocket was top heavy with the motor on the top of the operating stick but most of all it was poor on suction. Would not remove pet hair from easy chairs. Did fair on wod and carpet floors.

Don’t like this vacuum at all. Bristles run too fast, practically drags you along the floor. No option to no have brush run. Head constantly Gets clogged and stops sucking. Not happy.
