Shark HV343AMZ Rocket Corded Stick Vacuum with Self Cleaning Brushroll Perfect for Pet Hair Pickup, Converts to a Hand Vacuum, with Crevice & Upholstery Tools, Blue/Silver, 0.68 Dust Cup Capacity

The photo is how it sits and rides in my car and I carry it into homes in 2 parts, vacuum in left hand, dust cup in right hand. I like the weight and manuverability. I love the ease of putting it together. I love the long cord and ease of emptying dust cup and rinsing/drying at end of day. Cons would be the top heaviness, but the style, with the hand-grip in between is nice and balances the weight. I don't mind laying the vacuum down to move small items out of the way. Older people may have trouble with that. You have to be careful if leaning it up against something, as it can fall down if not propped up securely. At end of day I have the dust cup off the top and it rests on the ground, as in picture. It doesn't vacuum SOME bath rugs easily, while it vacuums others fine. Weight of bath rugs seems to be the factor, as I've used it on both short fluff and shag. (Update: it will vac a lightweight bathroom rug if I vacuum in one direction only, lift at the end, bring back and repeat) It's Narrow vacuum head seems like it takes a bit more time to cover large floors, but it saves time equally by moving between chair legs and picking up crumbs closer to edges. Works wonderfully on hardwood, laminate, carpet or linoleum. I haven't tried it on cement floors. I've only had it and used it for a week, but it seems durable and a Very good value for the money. I would purchase again and I would recommend it to others. Overall, none of these are cons for me personally. I love this purchase. I have the very 1st shark vacuum?? Where the dust cup lays flat, horizontal to the floor. You tap your foot on the release and it pops up. And an above ground "hand vac" was sold separately. I have that too. These were/are my Favorite Shark vacuums. Until I got this little wonder. I still prefer the original model but I am fast preferring the Lightweight of this one And the narrow head, which also goes Under more items than my old one because the dust cup is not down on the head. My old shark is now at Least 10 years old... closer to 15...and someone made a comment about maintenance. Absolutely! The motor is still strong on my old one but it started acting up. So while I waited for this new model to arrive, I used each clients vacuum at their house. I was surprised how many people have sharks 😊 -different models. Several people never cleaned their filters Ever! One thought his vacuum was ruined. I took the filter out and his was disintegrating. I showed him how compacted the dirt was. Then, noticed dirt coming back out onto the floor. I opened the flap to his hose and used a chopstick and some other gadgets to pull out in clumps, compacted dirt, cat hair and cardboard from the kitty scratching boards. YES, please clean the vacuum parts at least once a month. It's so easy and your purchase will last Years! I also helped him look up his model and order new filters. This deal of a vacuum is so easy to clean and access the filters. No reason to not keep it clean. Update: I have used this vacuum for a month now. I changed it to 5 stars. I like so many features on this item-the extra LED light at the base of handheld dust cup is Great for using with the wand to see under beds and reach baseboards & so many places. Saves me from down on my knees and up again all day. I need compact, lightweight, Durable and tough vacuums for cleaning several homes a week.

Powerful suction and flexibility . my shark vacuum was simple to put together along with additional tools that are handy for fabric sofa or chairs . Easy to vacuum carpets or floors . Love this shark vacuum which has the ability to turn vacuum head going around corners as needed. I Purchased extra filters but the vacuum does come with one installed . Easy to empty attachment but make sure you know to keep the cup in the right position when opening to throw collecting dust and particles out so as not to have it spilled . Highly recommend Anne does a wonderful job . Don’t hesitate you will be pleased I just order the extra cup filters when ordering the vacuum . Makes life easy

Elegí esta aspiradora por recomendación de un compañero de trabajo. Resultó muy útil. Tengo dos habitaciones que constantemente se ensucian de polvo por tener las ventanas abiertas. Tenemos mascotas en casa y siempre hay pelo de gato en todos lados. Es fácil de usar y succiona muy bien los pelos de las mascotas. Se limpia fácil y es muy practica.

Nice light weight Easy to use & empty vacuum Longer cord is a plus And the brush roller does Not need much attention because no hair builds up on it ! Shark vacuums are great !

I'm a professional cleaner and I've gone through 7 vacuums in 3 years and returned all of them because they have insufficient suction, are hard to maneuver or break. This is the only one I have kept and I love it, great suction, doesn't clog or get hair tangled, easy to maneuver. Vacuums up large debris including paperclips and screws without issue.
