    Really Sucks

    I'm pleased with the vacuum. It really sucks! I have cats and dogs and the fur flies. My only caveat is that you empty inside the trash can or bag as some of the fur and dirt gets pulverized into a dust that falls around the can. I was replacing a Dyson that didn't suck as well as it should and stopped working every few minutes. My housekeeper is thrilled with the Shark.

    I'm very happy with this vacuum - The suction is very powerful and I like the way you can control the suction. I find it very easy to use as an upright vacuum. It would be nice if the hose were a little longer when vacuuming furniture.

    I'm glad this also has tools without the rotary brushes, and the suction is very good. Easy to dump out. Very pleased.

    This vacuum is excellent. It is the quietest vacuum I have ever heard. It does an excellent job on all types of floors and furniture. It pivots so that you can get under low furniture. I would strongly recommend it.

    The Shark Rotator Professional Lift-Away Upright Vacuum Cleaner has been great so far. We have had problems with being unable to actually push a vacuum on our carpet. This one is easy to move on the carpet while actually sucking up the dirt.

    I read the reviews and came to Best Buy looking for specific vacuums. The Shark was my top choice and was in stock. Got it home and was amazed at how well it worked. I got a lot of value for what I paid. Very happy with the product.

    Best vacuum ever! I have 3 cats and a dog and I swear it picks everything up! Dog hair and cat hair! I have had a shark before and I will never go back to the cheap vacuums that don’t pick up like this one does!

    I love this thing. The attachments work well. It gets well under most of my furniture, turns well. I really like the lift away function. I used to have to lift my whole vacuum up to reach the ceiling corners and above the windows etc. ... so much nicer now. Click n go. The debris is so easy to remove too. ... and easy to put the canister back on!

    This vacuum came with more gadgets than a hobby shop. It has the most suction of any vacuum we have ever had, even with the extension tools.

    I did a lot research prior to making my purchase. I wanted something that was easy to move up and down the stairs and most important picked up dog hair. I could not be happier. It would take me an hour to vacuum the couch with my old vacuum (which was a brand made specifically for pet hair). It takes less than five minutes with the Shark Rotator. I vacuum every week and the first time I used this vacuum I was disgusted at how much dust and dirt it picked it. It validated why this product truly does the job it promises. I recommend this for everyone.

    Never thought I'd be this excited about a vacuum cleaner. Had seen the infomercials but it was the store clerk's recommendation that sealed the deal on the purchase. Super powerful and love that it's bagless. Totally recommend.
