Shark IX141 Pet Cordless Stick Vacuum with XL Dust Cup, LED Headlights, Removable Handheld, Crevice Tool & Pet Multi-Tool, 40min Runtime, Grey/Iris, 7.5 lbs

I really like the idea of a stick vacuum. And I like this one. It’s so much easier than a corded vac. BUT… 2 callouts: 1- The vacuum works great when you’re moving forward. But if you try to back up and vacuum anything as you back over it, forget it. I was shocked to learn this because I’ve never had a vacuum that doesn’t pick up stuff when it goes backwards. I’ve tried dozens of times and every single time it fails. 2- even though this vacuum is lightweight overall, if you have delicate shoulders you need to be careful. When the vacuum is in the carpet mode, It’s self-propelled and pulls at your arm. I never knew I had delicate shoulders until I used this vacuum. I just need to switch between my right and left hand so my right shoulder doesn’t get over-taxed.

This is a great little vaccine for everyday cleaning. My only issue is I have a carpet that has little divets, like a wave and sometimes it misses the crumbs that get in there. Not the strongest suction. Which is expected in a cordless. I do use it on hardwood floor and it works pretty well. If your looking to do a hard cleaning or for pet hair etc probably not the best vacuum. But great for a quick daily clean.

I was so excited to use this on my stairs due to the claim of how light it is, its true. The vacuum is very light and I like that its cordless. I just dont like how fast the battery power is used up. Overall, its easy to use and clean. Storing is great because of how slender it is. Also, it doesnt take long to charge.

Currently using this for a month and lemme tell you if you live with anyone who sheds hair constantly and its long hair then this vacuum is not ideal. Hair gets trapped around the roller hair and while you can use a scissor to cut through it its still a hassle and doesnt get everything. So the real solution is to literally unscrew the roller head and screw everything back in. Dont know why they dont have an easier way to go about upkeeping this thing is probably poor oversight. Otherwise it does a decent job sucking my cats fur and I like the light feature that lets me see the particles on the floor. Shark should design some kind of tool to remove the stuff that you cant get off easily from the roller brush either then I wouldve been less annoyed with this vacuum. Would not recommend this vacuum unless youre bald or dont shed too much hair.

Works great, happy with purchase

Im not going to say too much original, most of why Im writing this is in case anyone finds themselves with an issue I just resolved. Basically: After a couple months of use I noticed that when I put it into Turbo mode it began to sound strained, and the suction overall was leaving something to be desired. I checked the hose by the canister and the part that connects to the part that goes on the floor and couldnt find anything blocking it. It turns out that the fur it had vacuumed up was great in quantity and very soft that tangled up with itself built up behind the beater blade and was blocking the tube there! So if you notice a lack of suction with it sounding like its trying its hardest and the tube looks clear on both ends, check there. Other than that, Ill echo the criticism of the turbo mode should be default and praise how easy it is to vacuum stairs. Overall the battery life is fine, my house isnt big and my off-brand Roomba handles most of the first floor, so its not like I have an hour of vacuuming I need to do each session. Overall Id buy it again.

We have a few vacuums at home and this one has become my go to. While it is not as powerful as our Dyson, the convenience of having it cord free makes up for it. Pros -Lightweight and easy to maneuver. Even my four-year-old can use it. -easy to empty. There aren’t so many parts and it is pretty self-explanatory -decent suction. There is a power boosting mode you can use that gives it a really good suction but it drains the battery much faster. -you can go for a room to room without having to re-plug the cord Cons -The battery doesn’t last so long so you might have to do your home in shifts -There is no stand for charging. You have to prop it up against some thing near an outlet -It doesn’t stand up on its own Overall I have compared it with cordless stick vacuums of other price points and four what you are paying this is a great value

I have gone through several cordless vacuums, all of which had problems after a few uses. This one so far is the best. Good suction, lightweight.

Loving this vacuum! It’s very easy to use compared to our old one which we had to get out of the closet, plug in and unplug to use in the other rooms. This vacuum is perfect for our small condo (1,025 sq ft). Battery lasts long enough to use in entire home and to vacuum the couches even when using the different settings throughout. Works well on hard wood floors, bathroom tile floors, shag carpet rug and regular carpeted floors. And the bin is big enough to hold all the dirt throughout our entire home and we have a dog that sheds a lot and a cat that likes to make a trail of kitty litter. Definitely recommend this product for the price point and if you have a smallish space! Only downside is that it doesn’t have a wall mount but it’s still easy to store and convenient.

I absolutely adore this vacuum! I have both hardwood floors and carpet and this works great on both without having to re-vacuum hardwood areas because the dirt gets blown around. The transition from hardwood to carpet is really easy and you just slide the switch back and forth as you go, and I don’t have issues getting the fur and dirt even when I’ve forgotten to switch. The battery lasts long enough to vacuum my entire downstairs and stairs with no problem, but it does wear down a lot faster if you use the extra power trigger frequently (which is still a great feature!). My favorite thing about this vacuum is how lightweight it is. I had major back surgery and haven’t been able to use our regular heavy vacuum and have had to depend on my husband to do it. Buying this has given me the ability to get back to daily vacuuming and I love it!!
