Best vaccuum! Amazing suction and easy to use! Defnitely recommend!

Best one I’ve owned yet. Powerful suction, and easy to clean means it works well for 3 messy children.

Shark Stratos is excellent. This is my third Shark upright vacuum and I keep coming back. Great suction power and easy to move around.

We bought this Shark vacuum for our daughter as a Christmas and she was very pleased with our selection. It has good maneuverability and also has powerful suction.

always owned a shark vacuum. this one works really well

So far; this vacuum is working much better than our 4-5 year old Dyson Pet ever did. After the Dyson’s “floor cleaner roller head” (I don’t know what their “official name” is) died twice in 2 years, we decided to try something different. After the first use; my wife is wondering how long the old one wasn’t working properly; there was soooo much dirt in the bin.

Does great with long cat fut and litter! Easy to empty and maneuver

Super nice, even with my 4 dogs (one is a husky)! The debris bin is really easy to empty and keep working.

Excellent handling, but a little heavy. Great suction power. I would buy again.

Works great on both rugs and wood floors. Just don't run over the cord.

This vacuum is the best that I have ever used. I had hoover, bissel and even an old shark navigator. Coming from those vacuums, this one is clearly the best.

Easy to use, good suction. Not to heavy to move around. Cord is decent length. Overall good buy.

I purchased this vacuum in early June, replacing a 15 year old upright bag less. The suction and roller-bar operation are excellent. The light weight makes it very easy to operate, even on stairs. The only potential improvement would be a retractable power cord.

Very easy to put together. works very good and even goes under or baseboard heat

Works great, strong suction, and really easy to maneuver.

Vacuumed my hallway and a small bedroom with my older Dyson. Then I vacuumed again with the Shark Stratos. I got a whole canister full. How is that even possible? The Shark Stratos is a beast. I vacuumed carpet, large rugs, hard wood floors and stairs. The swivel steering is easy to maneuver. The lift away canister makes it easier to get into tighter spaces even under the bed. All the different release buttons are clearly labeled and work smoothly. The canister held a reasonable amount of dirt. I emptied it after each room. The length of the hose did not cause me any problems. For me it was so much lighter and easier to maneuver than my old dyson and Kenmore uprights. The weight at 17lbs is not a problem at all for me. I swept my stairs using the lift away power nozzle and canister. It was so easy. I’m sure the key to longevity with any vacuum is to treat it with care and keep it clean. I was cautious not to bang it into things and wiped the dust off of everything including inside the dust bin after using. Getting it on sale for $150 off retail was an added bonus. This Consumer Reports number one rated upright vacuum is all that and more. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. The Best Buy rep who helped me was also amazing.

It seems to be a well produced, substantial product. I found the vac to be heavy and a bit awkward. On the plus side, it seems to contain dust, the pieces fit together well. It has a learning curve to the use of it. I like the odor neutralizer, since I have dust allergies. . It quit the second or third time I used it, but Shark worked me through it, Customer service rep did a great job working me thru it, and I appreciate it, and I feel more acquainted with the ins and outs of the machine (even tho I read the manual and couldn't get how it died). It was a matter of not inserting the wand quite right.

I have owned more expensive vacuums, and I've tried them all, but I will always stick with a Shark. It works like a professional vacuum. I’ve seen professional home cleaners using them.

On the second one. ALWAYS ON POINT And worth the money$$$

I ordered this online, and it arrived damaged, so I had to pack it back up and return it. They didn't have one in stock, so I had to order a replacement. I've had both Dyson and SHARK and I prefer the SHARK. I currently have (2) other SHARK vacuums and the suction power one this one is GREAT, and I love not having to deal with cutting off dog hair from the roller. The only thing I'm not real fond of is how the handle switches are. Other than that, a GREAT vacuum so far.
