Customers have good things to say about the Stratos Upright Vacuum, particularly its suction power, overall performance, ease of use, and effectiveness in hair removal. The odor neutralizer feature is also well-received. However, some customers find the vacuum to be heavy, while others have concerns about the noise level, attachments, and price.

    Nice Features, Poor Anti-Consumer Design

    I've had this for a year now. In that time the cleaning head started seizing up about 9-10 months in, smelling like burning hair. Which is likely due to dog hair. Ironically this vacuum has "HairPro" in its name. I tried to find a way to clean the hair, but it's nearly impossible for a consumer to access the main roller. I only have a little dog and vacuum weekly. I got on Shark's website and found a replacement cleaning head for $95. Ordered that in December. Now 2 months later the rollers on that are seizing and smelling like burning hair. Unfortunately the design is so anti-consumer, there seems to be no way to fix it other than buy a new cleaning head every time. I like the features of this vacuum, though the plastics are a little cheap feeling compared to a Dyson. But I cannot recommend this vacuum at all, especially if you have pets. It's not affordable to spend several hundred dollars on the vacuum to begin with, then have to buy new cleaning heads for $95 on a regular basis. A vacuum that is supposed to handle hair well should do so and have a way for consumers to clear out any hair that might get stuck. This is basically built to be an expensive disposable machine.

    Vacuum is clumsy to maneuver if a petite person. It's tall, heavier than it appears, and to swivel takes much twisting.

    this is by far the best machine every… has already vacuum when it arrives and thought what the heck maybe i’ll get a little more… imagine, this took a full canister of dust and dirt and hair. the fresh pack is a plus - my home is probably clean for the first time and smells amazing … Llove love love this machine ❤️

    Love it!!!! However, on the lowest carpet setting it has the tendency to push out so many AMPS that it pops the circuit breaker no matter where in the house I am vacuuming.

    This is just what our family needed. This vacuum maneuvers well around the furniture and is not too loud. It picks up dust, hairs, and all the crumbs our little ones leave behind. This was a great find. We recommend this vacuum.

    Difficult to maintenance and clean. Clogs easily. Filters appear dirty very fast. Doesn't easly fit under much. At first it cleaned well but quickly became a disappointment. It replaced a Hyla and a Rainbow. *Cleaning a household of 2 boys, 2 dogs and 2 cats.

    Used to purchase Dyson vacuums but when I tried this had a change of heart. Works well with dog hair on carpet, hard wood floor and tile. Must get.

    Love how well it picks up. The attachments are great and have places to attach to the vaccuum. Less hassle than the Dyson I have. Don’t have to clean the brushes like the Dyson.

    This is the 2d Shark we have owned. I really like this new one. The detachable dust collector allows you vacuum under the bed, etc. My only negative, it didn't come with a brush attachment. For almost 500 dollars, you think they would add one.
