    I wanted to love it as I love my Shark upright but it just doesn't have the same power to clean. It clogs all the time, doesn't fully empty and generally is just ok. I will go back to my shark upright once it is fixed.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Hello Wendy,

      Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback with us. We understand how disappointing it must be when your vacuum doesn’t deliver the same power and performance you’re used to, especially when it clogs frequently, doesn’t fully empty, and only feels “just okay.” This truly isn’t the experience we want for our customers, we’re definitely looking for more than that! We’d love for you to give us a call at 1‑855‑427‑5127, where one of our product specialists will be more than happy to assist. We can take a closer look at what’s happening with your unit and walk through dedicated steps to help turn this experience around for you. We’re available Monday–Friday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. ET, and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET.

      Kind regards,
      Shark Clean

    I have three dogs and this vacuum is very efficient, easy to carry around, and use. The hair does get stuck in the rollers but it’s simple to take apart and clean! Highly recommend!

    This is nice, however, it is not ideal for homes with dogs that shed a lot. Pet hair gets stuck in the front and needs to be manually removed.
