    Under a year old and the cord is done. Used the notches to lock it in and it frayed. The roller on bottom is always clogged with pet hair. It’s very powerful but the tubes are so small it’s constantly clogged. It’s a huge let down.

    Broken right out of the box. I could not get the dust chamber to snap into place. Upon further inspection, the plastic moulding was defective. For this price point, that should not happen. I got so frustrated I returned it and bought a Dyson the same day.

    Broke after 2 months of use. No longer sucks anything up and is so loud, no blockages in any of the hoses. Best buy support is no help so now I have to spend hours on the phone with Shark customer support. $500 wasted.

    Not for dog hair. Definitely disappointed

    Very disappointed! Purchased this vacuum upon researching and reading many reviews. I have dogs vinyl flooring and just need something to suck the dog hair up from hard floors. It seemed to gather hair along the front roller brush that I am continuously wiping. Im 5'3 and its a bit tall and akward for me to grab the handle as well.called shark as its only 38 days old they said they dont usually replace unless their is an issue with the suction. The customer service specialist advised this weird for this "top of the line product". They offered to replace the floor nozzle

    Pet Hair Disappointment

    Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.

    This is the worst vacuum I've ever owned. I upgraded from a slightly less expensive Shark, thinking this would be better for pet hair with the new design, plus I love the idea of the odor neutralizer. Believe the other reviewers that say this thing can't handle pet hair. Every single other vacuum, including my less expensive Shark (more than one) and my Dyson, could handle pet hair much better than this. It clogs up the roller in the front and I am constantly having to take it apart to clean it out! I've never had that issue with any other vacuum, especially one supposedly designed for picking up pet hair. In addition, it takes AT LEAST 3-4 tries every single time to replace the dust bin after I take it off to empty it. My husband has the same issue, and I see that others do as well. I wish I would have taken this back. ZERO STARS and a waste of money.

    Initially we really enjoyed the quality of this product. Then we started to notice a burning hair smell and the lower wheels started to squeak after a month. Then the vacuum completely stopped working 61 days later (frustrating it was outside of the return policy). I would be very cautious about purchasing this product and would buy the replacement plan if it breaks.
