> 3 dayI just got my new 1x144AMZ cordless vacuum and so far I love it, except for one thing. The rectangular accessory brush is too wide and the bristles too short to clean corners and shelves properly. I would prefer one that is round and has longer bristles, which my the one with old corded Meile has. The Miele is heavy and awkward to lug around the house, but I fear I must get it out to clean shelves, floor corners and edges properly.

> 3 dayI’m a big fan of shark products and have been using their vacuums for almost over a decade. The vaccum comes with the standard “Shark” quality that you’d expect. Operation is smooth and quiet. Suction power is good although not great. My biggest concern with this product is the storage. In my opinion, it’s very cumbersome and poorly thought out. You can’t let this vacuum freely stand upright. You can’t prop it against a wall and still expect it to stand upright. This is because of the weight imbalance. There’s more weight on the base than on the top so it would slide forward. Although the top has rubber strips that grip against the wall, it isn’t strong enough to hold it in place. I mean during assembly, I propped it against the wall and took my eye out for few seconds and bam it hit the floor sliding down. Thankfully there was no damage to the product. So what would you need to do to store after use? After every usage, you literally have to disconnect the top half from the wand and hook it up to a clip that’s located on the base!! I mean who does that. Also, this wasn’t a big deal to me but I will still say it here. You’d also need to disconnect the top from the wand if you need to empty out the bin. This to me isn’t that frequent of an occurrence so you can at least learn to live with it given the pros it has. But storage is a big deal breaker for me. This is going back! Sorry.

> 3 dayI purchased this cordless vacuum for quick clean-up of dog hair on my laminate floors. I have two long-haired Dachshunds and a GSD and thats a lot of hair. It does a great job and I cant believe how much hair and dust it picks up. It does have the tendency to get hair into the little roller feet on the head that is not easy to remove but doesnt seem to affect the use of the head. I do like the fact that I can use just the head and cannister to quickly vacuum my stairs. It definitely keeps a charge and I dont think I have ever run out of power during my quick clean-ups. The downside is that I dont feel like it adequately cleans my living room area rug or my carpeted rooms. To be fair, I have a Simplicity upright vacuum that I have used for literally 20+ years and I havent found anything that has the ability to clean like that. But its heavy and bulky and I dont like to get it out for daily pick-up. I will continue to use the Simplicity for deep-cleaning and use the Shark for the daily dog hair pick-up. Overall, this was a great purchase and I would purchase again even with what I feel are the limitations on the carpeted areas.

> 3 dayWe 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

> 3 dayI like everything about it except the cleaning of the brush. You have to clean it every time you sweep due to hair and stuff wrapped up in it. if i would of known it was so hard to clean i wouldnt of bought it i would of found one similar with a self cleaning or a roller that pops off to clean.

> 3 dayI recently adopted a big dog that has a lot of hair so I now vacuum daily. I did a lot of research on cordless vacuums and found this one had the best overall reviews and specs that I needed plus, I have a great history with the Shark brand. This is easy, stands up leaning against a wall and using every day for 10 minutes a day on high for a week so far, the charge is still working great. The suction is surprisingly strong on the bare floor and carpet and gets into corners and under things easily. It is so light it doesnt feel like such a chore and I LOVE that it has headlights because I can see every piece of dust and hair that needs to be picked up and yes, I sometimes vacuum in the dark! So far, Id give this 10 stars if I could!

> 3 dayI used to have a Dyson but wanted to avoid paying the cost for a new Dyson. I gave this vacuum a try, but I was not as happy with it as I had hoped. Its just ok for light jobs, but not enough to really vacuum for pet hair. I used on sofa and floors. It is okay for a quick job but not overly satisfied with the performance.
