Shark - Detect Pro Cordless Stick Vacuum, QuadClean Multi-Surface Brushroll, HEPA Filter, Detect Technology - White/Beats Brass

I got this Shark cordless vacuum to replace a corded vacuum and was happily surprised by the features and length of time the charge lasted. The vacuum has a sensor to identify when there is more dirt on the floor and automatically turns up the suction. We have a two story and although lugging the corded vacuum wasn't a big deal, this one is much more convenient to use. You don't have to continually unplug and move the cord to a new location when you switch rooms. That alone saves time on the overall cleaning regimen. I was able to vacuum the entire house without running out of charge also, so 30-40 minutes shouldn't be a problem. I've owned a couple of cordless vacuums over the years and most of them lack the suction of a corded vacuum. Although that is true of this one also, the difference isn't as big as my previous vacuums have been. Add on the extra suction when extra dirt is detected and this one performs well against it's corded competition. Another nice feature I wasn't sure I would like was the handle. This handle is more akin to a cordless drill than a typical vacuum cleaner. I quickly got used to it and actually like this better than the alternative...maybe because I am much more familiar with a drill than a vacuum cleaner (at least that is what my wife would say). As with most stick vacuums, there is an option to use a shorter attachment to clean in tight places. One thing this one doesn't have is a brush attachment. I don't use it frequently but that would come in handy cleaning in your car or the sofa. Overall, I really like this cordless vacuum and would recommend it. Probably won't get your really deep down dirt, but for normal day to day use, it does the job well.

This is the little vacuum cleaner that could. Works as well as any of the larger vacuums. Super light and easy to handle. Actually fun to use. Converts into a hand held with included attachment. Cordless for super easy use.

Looking at this stick vac you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s too much stick and not enough vac. It’s a lot smaller than I was anticipating, but that turns out to be an added benefit when it comes to portability and mobility. We have another vacuum from a competing company and it also detaches to be used as a handheld vac. That thing is not nearly as comfortable to use as this Shark vac, it’s heavier all around, doesn’t do as good as a job, doesn’t have nearly as long battery life, and was more expensive to boot. Go figure. On to the details! All four of the advertised features of this vacuum, DirtDetect. EdgeDetect, FloorDetect, and LightDetect worked well and seamlessly. When the surface being cleaned changed, the lag time was barely noticeable and the vacuum handled it all very well. Ditto the power ramping, where it automatically determines if it needs more suction power and adjusts on the fly. Works as advertised and works well! Not to mention, if that helps save battery then it’s an added bonus. So clever. How often do you need to do a regular cleaning of your floor (hardwoods) at max suction? Even with pets that seems unnecessary; you only need that power in certain areas. The Shark takes over and does the brain work for you. It’s great. The LightDetect feature is also something you won’t need all of the time, but you know what? It’s actually helpful even if you’re not vacuuming at midnight with the lights off. Everybody has corners and areas in their house where the overhead lights actually create shadows around furniture and shelves and whatnot. The light is actually pretty useful in those places! On the other hand, most of the time when I'm cleaning behind things where light may not reach, I'm using the crevice tool, which has no light. So, your mileage may vary but don’t write it off completely as a feature that could get some use. Overall, the vacuum maneuvers quite well and goes very nearly flat to get under shelves and tables, and unlike our other cordless vacuum, it handled pet hair on a rug easily and did not appear to put a strain on the power. (Hooray!) The battery lasted for almost the entire upstairs of the house straight out of the box, and subsequent uses when fully charged have had no issues. Emptying and cleaning the dirt cup is simple and fast. My only complaint is that the handle unit is quite long, making it a little awkward when trying to use the crevice tool in tight spaces. All in all, this is easy to recommend if it’s the right size for what you need.

I love this vacuum! It is my 2nd one since I needed one at our seasonal home. This vacuum helps me to keep our house much cleaner since it can get in to the far corners if you use just the stick. It is lightweight and cordless. I never wanted a cordless vac until experiencing this wonderful device. I use it everyday and it keeps its charge for a long time. I don’t like emptying the dirt container since if you do it wrong the dirt ends up on the floor but I hold it over the wastebasket to prevent this. I have many other vacuums and some are robots but this is definitely my favorite!

The Shark Cordless Detect Pro Cordless Vacuum has been the perfect addition to our regular home cleaning routine. We try to do a weekly clean up at our home. But with a 10 year old, a cat and an active family with limited time during week days, it is helpful to keep our floors clean with a bi-daily vacuuming routine. This cordless vacuum is lightweight and its design allows to go under low level furniture like couches, utility tables and chairs. It does a great job around corners and curvy areas where dirts and small particles tend to accumulate. It moves like a snake around all those ares. The sensors to detect the edges, comes very handy as it gives a little bit more power to pick dirt close to the walls or edge of heavy furniture. Any extra particles that are not picked up, are handle easily by removing the hand vacuum and do some targeted vacuuming in those spots. The feature to adjust to different surfaces, makes it easy to clean our main level, where we have hardwood floor mixed with some area rugs. I just need to move from floor to carpet from the side edge, rather than the corners to avoid getting stuck. A couple of extra features that I found convenient: - Cordless, which makes the vacuuming process easier by not having a cord on the way or a vacuum that stops working when pulling a cord - Dual functionality. The hand held vacuum can be use for targeted spots or to vacuum the card - Easy to store and efficient use of space - Easy to to clean after each use - Less noisy than our regular vacuum cleaner and very lightweight We have had this product for a couple of weeks. We are pleased with its performance in our cleaning routine of our hardwood floors and area rugs.

Its the best starter vacuum to introduce to the the new cordless and high tech vacumes

Love!!! It’s definitely a smart vacuum. Light weight for stairs. And leaves the carpet looking like it was washed. The battery life is not the best if you have it on smart mode, it needs to be charged after each use. I use for hard wood floor and carpet. It does not come with the emptying base just a cord to charge.

The Shark Detect Pro Cordless Stick Vacuum is really handy to help keep floors and other surfaces clean. The handheld vac can easily be removed from the wand and floor head for quick use on crumbs, etc. Cleaning the primary filters is quick and easy and the HEPA filter keeps fine dust particles contained. What’s in the Box: Main Vacuum (detachable handheld vacuum) Rechargeable Battery Wand with Storage Hook Floor Nozzle Crevasse Tool Power Supply While unboxing the vacuum I noticed a QR code for full instructions on the box flap. So naturally I grabbed a copy of that to read while giving the battery an initial charge. Assembly was a snap, literally the pieces snap securely together. The Shark Detect Pro Cordless Stick Vacuum automatically detects different surfaces (carpet, hard floor, etc.) and edges. So far, it’s cleaned everything we’ve tried, including tracked in grit, fine dust, sock lint and spilled spices. We’ve used it on carpets, throw rugs, as well as hardwood and ceramic tile floors. We’ve also used it as a hand vac to clean up other surfaces. There are three filters. The first is a fine wire mesh that traps hair and debris, the second is a paper filter that traps fine dust particles and the third is a HEPA filter that traps pretty much everything else. I haven’t yet replaced the HEPA filter, but the first and second filters are easy to clean. The wire filter is easily accessible and cleaning the second level filter so far has been as simple as removing it and giving it a few gentle taps to remove the fine dust particles. The instructions say this second filter can be also rinsed and air dried for at least 24 hours. As an allergy sufferer, the HEPA filter is a real bonus. Do note that this stick vac is not designed to pick up liquids or sharp objects. The battery run time varies depending on if you use ECO mode. The manufacturer says the battery will last “up to 40 minutes”. So far this has not been a problem. We use it for quick cleanups not as a primary vac for the whole house. It recharges quickly and the battery is removable / replaceable. Plus, the battery charge left is clearly indicated on the handle. The vacuum is designed to make storage simple. Rather than having a top-heavy stick vacuum that falls over, this one is designed to allow you to remove the handheld vac and nest it in a holder near the vacuum floor head. It’ll stand just fine wherever you put it without toppling over. All in all, I really like this stick vacuum. It is easy to clean and store and it is powerful!

Never having owned a stick vacuum before, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. This one seemed to tick all the boxes - detachable from the base to use as a dustbuster, long attachment for reaching tight spaces, supposed great suction and an LED control panel. I thought it had wet-mop capabilities, but I must've read wrong because this model actually doesn't. It was simple enough to put together, except I can't figure out how to get the handheld part to fit properly onto the storage hook that's attached to the stick? Kinda wonky, and it just falls out, so I ended up leaning it against the wall for storage. It's pretty light, easy to maneuver. The head swivels which is awesome. And it really picked up everything off my hardwood floors easily. Pet hair is my main concern and it seemed to pick it all up. Worked great in between the stove and counter / stove and refrigerator. Not a big fan of the control panel, the box reads as though it's some very unique design going on here, but it's so simple I felt a little let down! Again, never having owned one, I'm kinda neutral, not sure if there are many more bells and whistles a product like this can have? And I was really surprised at how much it retails for, not sure I would pay nearly $400 for this given it doesn't even have wet-mop capabilities. I received the Shark Detect Pro free from Best Buy to try and review, and honestly, although I really like it, I wouldn't have considered it otherwise. It's a good vacuum, I use it twice per week and to pick up quick messes. Depends on what your budget is.
