Shark AZ3002 Stratos Upright Vacuum with DuoClean PowerFins, HairPro, Powered Lift-Away, Self-Cleaning Brushroll, & Odor Neutralizer Technology, Navy

Had an old Dyson and presumed I had the best vacuum available. It smelled of smoke the other day and would no longer turn on. Time for a new vacuum. This vacuum had a great fan club on the internet. When I tried it out, it not only picked up new mats of hair, but appeared to be cleaning the carpet very deeply. It appeared that trapped hair and dirt from long ago were also being picked up. Awesome performance.

I LOVE this vacuum! There are so many ways to use this vacuum thats makes it so convenient. I can detach the front where the dust and hair go and get under my bed, couch, cabinets... etc. I love the light in front of the vacuum that allows me to visibly see the pet hair on the floor. The suction is a 10/10 it has a powerful suction. 10/10 would recommend if youre looking for a GREAT vacuum

Great suction power. Does great on carpets and hard surface floors. It is a little heavy. Motor over heats and will shut the unit off temporarily which I don’t like. The dust container detaches easy but is a little wonky when re-attaching. The odor blocking technology is just and replaceable air freshener like you would put in your car. The new roller fins are better than the old brush rollers and haven’t tangled so far. Just curious tho if the rubber fins will hold up or tear after a while.

Perhaps I’m desiring what no vacuum could truly offer- but I was hoping for better. I still think it is very good. But I can still sometimes see hair left after like covering an area. Perhaps this is hair from the depths of the carpet…it may have sucked it from the surface and with its power brought the remaining visible hair from the Jericho Valley of my carpet. Otherwise, it is heavy and powerful- so can be a bit unwieldy. Sometimes as you bring it back up from its vacuum position, there is this moment before the click that it tries to run away from you. It’s a bit of a task for the stairs, but otherwise I haven’t found that to be too much of an issue. For how spendy it was, I was hoping it would solve all my life’s cleaning problems…but it turned out to be just a pretty good vacuum.

Honest review, it’s been 3 months since I purchased this vacuum. Best decision ever, it picks up everything on my carpet upstairs and it’s super easy to clean. I’d recommend this product.

Long story short: I highly recommend this vacuum. I am in love with it. So much love. All the love. Long story long: My Dyson broke and cost too much to repair (1). Commence my deep dive into all the vacuums: cost, quality, availability near me here in Alaska (2). I decided to go with this shark and hallelujah!! It is working well on all the rugs, carpets, tile, and even occasionally on the hard wood floors (3). Let me back up and say that I love a clean home. I NEED a clean home. I also love chaos (4); Single mom, two bio babies-turned toddlers-turned big kids (5), teenage foster boys, grownup foster kiddos returning home during the pandemic, quarantines galore, neighborhood kids in and out, and two mini-poodle puppies including one litter of puppies. My bedroom carpet was, by my standards, epically disgusting. I splurged and got a professional carpet cleaner. They came and went and I was not impressed. I vacuumed as soon as I could. AND LOOK!!!! No more than 24 hours after the professional carpet cleaners came this vacuum got all that nasty business up in just that tiny little area. And they were 24 kid free hours! The end. 1) Lesson learned: I get my own vacuum and the kids have another vacuum. Theirs is much cheaper. 2) While I try as much as possible to shop local, I can not deny the time and money Jeff can save me. 3) If you’re judging me for using it on my hardwood floors then we are not friends. 4) *Loved chaos. Working really hard to quit it. 5) Now 6 & 10 years old.

I need a powerful vacuum for my high pile carpet, it worked well on low pile and would do well with medium pile. While this is powerful and has great suction, it doesn’t work for high pile carpet. This vacuum is very heavy. Make sure you pick up anything you don’t want sucked into the vacuum because the second it gets close it’s too late. It is self propelling but it really pulls and it takes some effort to pull it back. I detached the base to use it as a handheld, but even that piece is really heavy. The hose isn’t very long so you have to carry the base with you. It has no wheels and tips over easily. This vacuum is very solid and well made, it just doesn’t work for me. I’m returning it.

I have gone through 3 vacuums with my labs. This is the best one for hair that never stops coming...it doesnt clog the roller and its easy to use. The suction is great and I like the fact you can clear the hoses easily.

This is just the vacuum I was looking for! I have multi surface home, this does it all! I love the fact that the handheld suction has rotation. And the soft brush suctions on hard floor and does not shoot debris out the back. Definitely my favorite vacuum I’ve ever bought!

This monster has great suction but its big and hard to maneuver. Im still having to use my old reliable canister vacuum for corners, tight spaces and to get under things. Its particularly hard to push if youre against the grain on rugs. After vacuuming my 3K sq ft house I feel like Ive been in a match with a sumo wrestler. If youre using it on big open spaces it really gets the dirt out but if youre looking for maneuverability and need to get under and around tight spaces you might want to avoid this machine. Its BIG and heavy.
