> 3 dayIve had this for a year and it is still has strong suction. I find it very convenient to go to for getting junk buildup on my hardwood floors, corners, the kitchen, dusty places. Basically, anywhere you would use the tube of a full vacuum cleaner. Its for quick jobs because it doesnt have much space in the canister, but thats the appeal for me. I can pick this up and do a quick clean of where gunk tends to build up on my hardwood floor. I can also grab this if I accidentally spill powder when cooking, for example. It doesnt quite have the power to collect large objects, so I find it unsuitable for cleaning the floor mats of the car. Overall Im happy with this vacuum and use it almost daily.

08-11-2024I hardly ever buy anything without doing research, these days. I did a lot of research on this purchase because the prices range from about $30 - $250 for the most popular brands of hand vacs. I have previously owned a hand vac that was a big let down, from a major name that everyone knows. At the time, I thought well, this manufacturer is well known for good products- should be safe to go with, but no. I was very disappointed with that unit- it had some major flaws for me, that I wanted to avoid this time. I want quality- Im willing to pay a little more for something that will serve me well. I also have to balance that with how much it will be used. I was willing to pay the $250 for the top of the line in this category (although I didnt want to pay that much), if it met certain criteria. Some of these criteria are not shared by everyone. I live in a smallish condo- I dont have tons of space for everything I could want and certainly not out on the counters. My previous hand vac needed to always be plugged in, if I wanted it charged and ready. Who wants to wait 2 hours after a mess happens to charge something up, or have to deal with cords and finding plugs nearby? The problem with this, is it was large and ugly. It looked like one of the sad, older robots on the Jawa land crawler- some of you know what Im talking about. It was an eye sore to look at, and took up a lot of counter space- so I wouldnt and sometimes couldnt leave it on the kitchen counter- I needed to store it somewhere, and it would invariably would not be charged when I needed it. Add to that, it just didnt work very well- it was awkward to hold, heavy and didnt have much suction- and on top of all that, didnt last very long. I had it about a year and then chucked it in the trash. Well I needed a new one, so I started to do my research. I watched all the youtube comparisons, read all the reviews, looked at what was online and in-stores. I compared prices, battery times, suction- style- every thing you could think of. The most expensive ones had some of the problems I mentioned above- you need a lot of space for these things, or you need a docking station that goes on a wall (I dont have a convenient place for that next to a plug)- otherwise the thing has to be stored...and I have bad memories of all that. It also turns out, the most expensive models dont really last all that much longer on battery than most of the others. What they do have, is great suction. So does this one, for its size- its one common thing that reviewers said about it, and they are right. I decided on this Shark, and Im quite pleased with it. It is stylish- modern, sleek, light. Its not an eye sore sitting on my counter and doesnt take up much space. Because of all that, its always charged and ready for little clean ups. I actually clean up all the small leaves that land on my outdoor patio with it, when it gets windy here (I stress that they are small leaves). It does a satisfyingly decent job of this. Its true I have to empty it several times when doing this- the cup is small- buts a one-click and drop easy, 2-second clean. The 10 minute charge is just enough to clean my whole patio of small leaves and tiny twigs. Its actually fun to use, like a Harry Potter magic wand- I look around the house hoping to find some small crumbs or something so I can zap it. Its long enough that I can suction up a cobweb dangling down from the ceiling on occasion. Im very pleased with my purchase- Shark has a winner, here.

> 3 dayI purchased on recommendation by a friend - and a defective previously used one arrived. I returned it easily and the new one is great! Leave it on the charger. Perfect for cleaning slider door tracks. The customer service is one big reason I give it a good review.

> 3 dayI got this for vacuuming a set of thirteen stairs but battery sputtered by step # 9. Otherwise, easy to store, use, empty for crumbs and dust.

Greater than one weekI have long thick hair and my husband has a big beard so our bathroom is always covered in our strays. This little guy is a live saver and helps us keep our bathroom clean and spiffy. I love the easy dump canister for debris. Honestly a great hand vac. Def recommend.

> 3 dayThis vacuum does it’s job well. It is difficult to get the filter out to clean it. As far as performance it works well as long as you keep the filter clean. I wish it was easier to get to the filter.
