Amazing, highly recommended.
Have a Shark at my parents, and older model, and we all love it even though it is quite heavy. Bought a house that had a Numatic left behind. Wasn't doing the job for us. I bought this, and prior to using it, I hoovered the passage using the Numatic. Then used this Shark and honestly it was amazing. Picture alone shows how much more dirt it took it. Really good suction, good attachments. Wife's hairs were dealt with easily. Getting it on the prime sale helped even more regarding the value for money. Highly impressed with the hoover over.It does get caught on the current carpet in detect mode, as in the roller stops spinning and shows an error. This is due to changing modes and the roller at the slower speeds can't handle the thickness of the carpet, so before it even speeds up it gets stuck. But this is easily dealt with with the manual selection of modes after turning it off and on again.

Very effective at cleaning, thoughtfully designed, and high-quality build
Shark claims this is "THE BEST OVERALL CLEANING OF ANY CORDED UPRIGHT VACUUM", and we have no reason to doubt that. It cleans carpets noticeably better than the Shark portable liftaway this is replacing, eradicating cat hair, and leaving the carpets looking professionally cleaned.Cons: this model is significantly heavier (at 7.5kg) than the portable liftaway, which can make manoeuvring in tight corners a bit of a struggle, and wouldn't want to carry it up and down stairs much.Also expensive, but we got a very attractive Prime Day deal.Pros: the powered head pulls the vacuum along effortlessly, and the overall mass is very well balanced on the wheels, so with a little practice it's little effort to move around when powered off.The powered head in liftaway mode cleans under beds and tables much better than any previous cleaner we've owned.The "additional attachments" include a duster and a powerful upholstery brush which is also excellent for carpet in tight corners.The design of the dirt canister is improved; emptying and cleaning are much easier than the predecessor.The power switch on the handle is a big improvement.Overall build quality is very good, with robust and thoughtful engineering.

This is The One
Chuckling at every review of this I read that says, 'we had a Dyson so we know...' You knew TV ads, love. That's all. You bought an overpriced gimmick with a charlatan's name on the side.The photos speak for themselves so I'll just add, it's not too loud (frankly it's surprisingly quiet given the performance), the anti-odour thing works well enough that I'm not going to resent buying a new one every now and again, it IS heavy but it's also manoeuvrable, and most importantly for me and the main reason I bough a pet speciality device, the anti hair-wrap tech works.Every 'test' I see of such things involves someone lightly treading some cut hair into a thin mat and seeing what happens but that's not real world. Real world is long hair and debris trod into the carpet over such a long time that it becomes part OF the carpet, real world is not vacuuming as often as you should because you're just too tired, real world is a thick longhair rug or vetbed that was brilliant for the dog when you bought it and is now so clogged it's basically a health hazard.And this thing did it all without any trouble. It'll never face a sterner test than what I put it through yesterday - a dog's playroom that hasn't been properly cleaned in 3 years. And I didn't go easy, pre-brushing, or even picking up larger clumps of hair (or stuffing from chewed up soft toys) that had accumulated around table legs and the like. I just threw this at it.And it was a JOY. There was a little bit of hair wrap on the soft roller, but that detaches for cleaning easily enough and the main roller? Not one bit. The single best performance of a roller vs dog hair I've seen in 30 years.I'd considered spending more and getting a Sebo (not least because bagged vacs do tend to be better since the bag acts as a filter), but that has the same basic brush roller as every vac I've wrapped in dog hair before, and I decided the flexibility of this was worth more to me. Detaching the bin and holding it in your hand is a bit gimmicky and won't be for everyone, but it does mean cleaning all the way under a double bed is possible without too much fuss.Negatives? You have to nitpick. It will be too heavy for some. Being left-handed the power cord is on the wrong side for me and is a bit of a pain. The handle isn't the best design for when you've lifted it out and are doing the edges. The holders for the accessories are rubbish and you'd be better off storing them separately because they get in the way and fall off. There are better LEDs on other vacs. Emptying the bin is a two-step process (top and bottom lids) rather than one. But that's reaching. It's an excellent machine.It's now in a house with a Henry which I hate the ergonomics of, a G-Tech Air Ram which is nice but just isn't up to dealing with the dogs, a handheld for quick jobs, and some thing so useless I can't even remember the name of it. This will replace all of them. There's nothing any of them do better.I got it for £250 which is a steal. I wouldn't feel at all short-changed if I'd spent £400.
