Best Cordless Vacuum

I have used many vacuums and have several battery and corded 'handvacs' this is by far the best.

Great Vacuum! Awesome suction for a battery vacuum! Quick release for powered brush and easy snap on of crevice tool.

Crevice tool could be longer, it is close to the body making some spaces hard to access. I thought the unit had 2 batteries and a charging station, however mine came with only one battery. I may have misunderstood the description.

Much better than expected

Quite a deal. Way better than the other similar products by dyson and others.

Much better suction and overall usefullness than I expected. Works better than my dyson and hoover

Took 2 full charge cycles to get the battery to hold a really good charge. Now I can go for 15-20 minutes which is better than I expected

Love It

I love this vacuum. I love how light it is. I love how maneuverable it is. I can clean my stairs with little effort considering this vacuum is so light. I can get deeply under my couches considering its so low profile. It does work better on carpet...

The Best

This is simply the best cordless stick vac I've ever owned. Since my original conked out (after 5 years of hard, frequent use), I had to move on to some other brands. I'm on #3, and they are pieces of junk -- none have even come close to matching the...

Valuable Little "Sidekick" to Your Heavy Hitter

A good small, lightweight, backup vacuum or unit for small jobs. Like most modern vacuums (both inexpensive and pricey), I don't think it will last very long, but who knows! Maybe it will! If youre serious about cleaning, (as with allergy problems etc)...

Small and easy to maneuver, not much power with short battery

The Shark 2-in-1 Cordless Stick Vac is a great concept. The lightweight and maneuverability make it very easy to use and get into small areas. The battery makes it quick to move form one room to another without lugging a power cord around....
