It’s great for a quick vacuum on hardwood/tile etc. For carpets/area rugs this is a NO! It does not pick up any type of hair dog or long hair instead it clumps it into a pile. The bagless compartment is small you have to constantly empty it. If you have too much debris then it doesn’t self empty you have to do it manually which isn’t a big issue. Battery life for this product is short but then takes forever to charge back up. Would recommend doing research prior to buying this vacuum.

Bad suction
Would Not RecommendDid not have the suction I was hoping for. Nothing like my shark upright vertex or stratos. I have dogs with fine hair and it just pushed the hair around.

Love his vacuum
Love the vacuum but with my dogs tracking everything In the house I needed a second battery. The second battery with its charger is great. Not a bit sorry I bought both.

So disappointed..
Would Not RecommendThis was the only thing that I asked for during Christmas. I was SO excited when I received it as a gift from my in-laws. However, I have NEVER in my life owned such a horrible vacuum… It doesn’t pick up hardly anything, even if it stays charged long enough to do so. The battery dies within 15-20 minutes of run time on eco mode. I have an old Shark stick vacuum that I have loved for 4 years now, so I was looking to replace it with this one. I have been nothing but disappointed in this product. S...

Disappointed
Would Not RecommendNot impressed with this vacuum at all. I wished I would have returned it in the allowed time frame. But, we were in the process of selling one house and moving into another. Time got away from me and I didn’t use it much during that time to keep reminding me. I have several Shark/Ninja products and this vacuum is the ONLY one I have ever had problems with. It doesn’t hold long of a charge. I can get 1 room done, but that is it. Then I have to wait for it to charge to move on to another room. I...

Nice feature of self emptying function
Would Not RecommendI love the self emptying function! The vacuum itself does not have the suction I am accustomed to for a product at this price point. Even at the boost level I have to go over areas several times on hard floors. It’s great for quick pickup but not for your main vacuum.

DO NOT BUY!!!!
Would Not RecommendI am QUEEN of reviews! I spend most of my time looking at reviews and videos and pictures before I buy something. I unfortunately read all the reviews from people who got a FREE product who gave this 4/5 stars!!!!! All the other 1 star reviews are the most up front and honest reviews about this product! There is not 1 good thing about this vacuum. The first month it worked but now forget about it! Let me repeat only 1 month of use!!! I use it once a day and in very particular on my care of expen...

Auto Empty Doesn’t Work!!
I’ve had this thing for almost a year now and have to deal with emptying it myself because the auto empty feature doesn’t work. COMPLETE waste of my money and i wish i had returned it or never bought it in the first place. don’t waste your time, get a better vacuum.

I love how it works on my stairs
Would RecommendI've only had it for a few weeks, but so far it works great. There are a lot of filters that need up keep, but as long as it keeps performing well, I don't mind. My box says Shark detect, but I think it was supposed to be the detect pro.

Meh
Would Not RecommendI’ve owned this vacuum for about a year now and would not recommend. It worked excellent at first but now, not as great. Battery dies quickly, there’s a flap that after vacuuming stays open and dirt comes out of it, and it just doesn’t pick up as well as it used to. Yes, I routinely clean the filters and rollers.

Sleek design and excellent auto detection features
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum is so nice, the only downside is the short battery life, so if you want a vacuum for a large space, this wouldn’t be ideal for you. The noise level is moderate, and it is pretty lightweight and doubles as a handheld vacuum which is nice. The auto sense on this is an amazing feature, as it senses walls and will increase suction. I don’t have to use a different attachment to get the crevices along the walls and the light helps me see...

Just adequate
Adequate for those "little" clean-up jobs. But if you're looking for deep cleaning, don't count on this. We bought this because the hose on my corded shark (that I LOVE) got a hole in it and my husband wanted a cordless one. The attachments are useless. When you use them, the device shuts itself off when the suction is "too much" Really? Too much suction in a vacuum? We contacted Shark and they replaced the handle, it continues to do it, it's the way it's built, not the individual device. I brok...

Easy2use,Lite w/Might Whole-house Cordless Cleaner
Would RecommendI bought this device to replace my Shark Navigator. It is my third Shark vacuum cleaner. The Navigator has been great, used a lot, and is wearing out. I saw the marketing video for the Cordless Detect and was most impressed with the sealed, no dust escape feature. Since receiving and using the Cordless Detect I am equally impressed with the ease of use: light weight, slim and narrow power head that can get under most of our furniture and into tight spaces, and stores conveniently in the pan...
