Great sweeper, easy to manuever and has good suction power

Do you have a pet that sheds so much on a weekly basis you could make whole liters of new pets from their hair? GET THIS VACUUM. I love my dog but the shedding is excessive, on every surface. If you want to seamlessly vacuum wood floors and go right onto carpet with the push of a button - THIS vacuum does that. If you want a vacuum that gets into spaces you normally can’t - THIS ONE. If you want to stop spending HOURS every week sweeping your floor, this one will save you time and back pain! The one downside is it is a little on the heavier side but I think the weight helps it pick up as much as it does. I don’t mind getting a little workout in while the floor is being cleaned!

***ATTENTION*** 3-30-21 I HAVE FIGURED OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS UNIT. THE FILTER BEING CONE SHAPED RESULTS IN ONLY THE VERY TOP OF THE FOAM FILTER ACTUALLY DOING ANYTHING. THIS MEANS A VERY SMALL PORTION OF THE FILTER GETS CLOGGED UP WITH DUST AND THE LARGEST PART OF THE FILTER DOES NOTHING. SO AFTER USING THE VACUUM TWO OR THREE TIMES THE FILTER BECOMES CLOGGED RESULTING IN VERY VERY POOR SUCTION. ONCE THE FILTER IS CLOGGED UP THE VACUUM NO LONGER CLEANS CARPETS OR RUGS, RATHER IT GRINDS THE DIRT DOWN DEEP INTO THE FIBERS. THE ONLY WAY TO COMBAT THIS IS TO BUY ANOTHER FILTER AND SWITCH THEM AS SOON AS IT LOOKS DIRTY OR PULL THE FILTERS AND CLEAN THEM AFTER EVERY 2ND OR 3RD USE. ***THIS IS100% DO NOT BUY A SHARK VACUUM WITH A CONE SHAPED FOAM FILTER.*** I had been extremely satisfied with our original shark purchase approximately ten years ago. It is the white professional version of the lift away series i believe. We still use it in our basement. It has been a top notch performer from day one. We couldnt have been more satisfied with it. So i was certain we would be getting an even better unit this time around! I couldnt have been more wrong. My wife noticed right away that this new unit lacked the suction of the old by quite a bit. It left dog hair on our only rug. We have a white dog and dark area rug so its hard to miss. I brushed it off thinking that she must not have been using the right settings. Until recently when i used the vacuum myself. What a hunk of junk this thing is! We literally have one 7x10 area rug and this thing left dog hair everywhere. I spent a half hour trying to get it all off. Trying both rollers on, one roller on. The air dam closed, a little open, all the way open. I checked the filters, everything. NOTHING WORKED!!!! So i got the old vacuum and yep. It picked it right up. Every last piece of hair was gone. What ive found is that this vacuum does a great job on the hardwood but is just awful on any kind of carpets. I went back over the 7x10 area rug i had just spent 30 minutes on with our old vacuum and picked up another half canister of dust and hair that the new one had been grinding down into the rug. Not only that but there was a ton of sand UNDERNEATH the rug itself! This never happened with the old shark vacuum. We would lift the rug once a month and there would be a dusting of fine sand not a sandbox like this left. Sadly our return window has closed on this hunk of junk. So ive got to eat the $350 i spent on it. The old shark is no longer produced either so i guess well have to give dyson a try this time around.

This thing really sucks! Even though I thought you could use the floor attachment when you lift the power section off ( you cant) it is really a powerful vacuum! Not the one I wanted but I thought I would give it a try. I have 4 dogs and lots of fir. This thing is amazing! VERY STRONG SUCTION!

I never thought that I would enjoy vacuuming but I have to admit that I love my Shark DuoClean Pro. When we moved into a very large (nearly 3,000 sq. ft.) house with a carpeted 2nd floor & a partially carpeted basement, from a tiny apartment with no carpets- I realized it was time to purchase a serious vacuum cleaner. Wait, no, I just wish that I would’ve realized that right away, but instead I purchased a lightweight cordless stick Shark vacuum and figured out pretty quickly that while it was suitable enough for small messes on our hardwood floors it wasn’t going to cut it for getting the carpets clean in a giant haunted house that contained two Pomeranians and two cats, not to mention two long-haired humans. The brush roll on the stick vacuum was completely clogged with fur and stopped working after approximately two minutes of use. So I did some research and while I was skeptical about purchasing another Shark product at first- I read review after review saying that the self-cleaning brush roll was a miracle feature for pet owners. I caved and ordered this DuoClean Pro and I’m so glad I did. This thing is a beast and it cleans up after my beasts with ease. I can’t believe how much dust and dirt and fur it picks up. I’ve been using this thing for about eight months now and no matter how clogged the brush roll gets with dog fur and hair and anything else it picks up- it keeps spinning & working perfectly. I haven’t had to bust out a pair of scissors or a knife to start hacking away at clogged dog fur even once. I have absolutely no clue how it works, but it does, and that’s good enough for me. The very bright LED light is so helpful for cleaning underneath cabinets & tables. It’s easy to use and simple to empty. It’s a little cumbersome and because of that maneuvering it is a bit difficult to master at first, but I think that’s really only because I was used to using a comparatively tiny stick vacuum prior to purchasing the DuoClean Pro. I would absolutely recommend this model to any pet owner or anyone at all in the market for a great vacuum cleaner- I don’t think there’s any way you’ll be disappointed.

We have two corgis and this is a life saver. I had an older model ( which I still loved) but it would always blow around hair. Design is better for this one. Picks up soooo much! A little on heavier side but fine with me.very happy with my purchase. Edit: we’ve had this now about 7 months. I still think it’s decent but not made as well as my last one. Already a few connection issues with the rotator brush… has to be trouble shooted occasionally since it won’t spin. Also I had to send it back under warranty because the wire somehow became frayed. I doubt this one will last as long as my older model but I’m glad I got it on sale.

The suction and cleaning was hands down better than the older Dyson. I cant say as far as a comparison with the newer ones. But the cleaning, suction, and maneuverability is great. And its narrow enough to fit between the legs of chairs, Dyson was too wide. Plus the cleaning head, if you will, is low and fits under furniture the Dyson wont. One other thing, the brush and suction is so good, its almost self propelled on carpet.

Easy to use. Great suction. Change from carpet to wood floor button. Easy to clean roller brush, tank, filter.

When my less powerful but more streamlined Shark died I decided to upgrade to this beast. I did more research than I care to admit, and it was with a little trepidation that I chose another Shark. I thought my other vacuum was up to the job, but it really wasnt. It had to handle pet hair, cat litter, antique wood floors and carpeting, and suck up little pieces of Mother Nature that blow in when you live in the woods. I also wanted to easily be able to do steps, vacuum pet hair off furniture, etc. I wanted a work horse. This baby does not disappoint. It has a heft to it that may take a little getting use to, but it is a beast in the cleaning department. Most of the accessories reside on the machine itself, and the wand easily comes away from the base so you can attach one of the tools which travel along with you. It also has a HEPA filter and is bagless. I highly recommend.

I have 3 dogs who shed a lot, I have had high end vaccums from Dyson, Bissell and Hoover. And none of them could do the job my sister in laws 10 years old shark could do. Pick up any shark model, this company knows how to build upright vaccums. Do not buy the robot vaccum though. This particular model is pretty heavy but I have a total of 1 pound of muscle in all of my body. So if you are a petite woman definitely go for any other shark model that’s lighter, I have been around 3 shark vaccums so far and they all rock…
