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

Like many said in reviews it is good but you will want to use the turbo power all the time. I bought for quick cleanup between regular cleaning so it will do what I bought it for. I don’t get all the reviews complaining about too top heavy for storage. It takes one button push and 2 seconds to remove top from the wand and then you just hang it on the built in hook at the bottom and it stands up and stores perfectly. Easy peasy and footprint is very small takes up very small space.

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.

Dislike suction and doesn’t stand by itself

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.

Works very well. Picks up pet hair.

My mom loved my Dyson V7. I liked it but felt like it was built like a kids toy, so much cheap flexible plastic! Tried this one out as it seemed very comparable to the Dyson and another friend had a shark wond model that impressed me. It works! I guess thats assumed but it does suck stuff up off your floor. It is just a bit weaker on suction than the Dyson but I was pleasantly surprised that it wouldnt shut off constantly when vacuuming a shag throw rug we have under my bed (like the Dyson would). So it may take an extra pass that you would likely be doing anyway, but it doesnt shut off. I also found the run time to be very similar to the Dyson. If the two were the same price Id have a very hard time choosing (that wall mount for the Dyson is pretty slick) but at MSRP... This one is a no hesitation purchase.

Overall, I really like this vacuum. It does well on hard surfaces and carpet, which is why I purchased it. It it very easy to take apart to clean and the suction is good. The only downside is it is a bit heavy and hurts my wrist after a while.

I gave it 4 stars because of the battery life, which is expected from a cordless vacuum and I wanted to continue non stop, that is why. It has good suction power. Great for quick cleanups for deep cleaning plan one task or room at at time since it takes up to 3 hours to recharge. Of course you will clean faster and cover more since you would not have to worry about the limitations of the electric cord. I bought mine used very good and noticed two small dents on the stick, so be careful when going under furniture, the stick is made of some type of soft aluminum and can get dented. Other than that, I will recommend!

This cordless vacuum is amazing! It seems to pick up more than my old corded one. Of course I think anything Shark is great. The battery seems to last a good amount of time too. Some reviews say 30 minutes but I haven’t really timed it, and that seems to be about right. I vacuumed my entire downstairs twice then plugged it in to charge up and it still had one bar left. The other good thing about this one is the dust bin is bigger than others.

This is my second attempt at a stick vacuum. So far so good. I did clog it up the first day, but to be fair there was a lot of dog hair. It was easy to unclog and when I run it every couple days I have no issues. I have 3 dogs and two of them are heavy shedders. (German shepherd and golden) it maneuvers easy and is easy to clean out. Even clogs. We have hard floors and some small rugs. It does a good job on both. I would use this for heavy cleaning but to keep things tidy it’s great.
