I have to give this vacuum a 5 star because it is an excellent product. The only thing I would mention and this is not a put down is for anyone old or feeble when using it on a carpet be prepared for it to pull you forwards due to the very strong suction.

What a hoover!!! Bought this in the prime deals as our old Shark hoover wasn't doing well anymore. What made me go for this one was the fact it sucks dirt up forwards and backwards. I was under the assumption all hoovers do this but apparently not after researching. It came in one box, and you need to take everything out to see what you have before assembling. Instructions are very straightforward. Assembled well and did it by myself in a matter of minutes. Lots of information with the box about the different power modes and cleaning instructions. The handle has the on/off switch and also digital buttons for different modes (low pile, hard floor, auto detect etc) The auto detect is brilliant. If there is a purple light this means that there is still dirt under the hoover and you need to hoover slowly over it to suck it up until the light turns white. The amount of dirt this sucks up is incredible!! On a floor I thought was clean, it brings up more dust from in between the fibres. When the light changes from purple to white and vice versa you can hear and feel the power change. It is quite heavy, but with the power it comes with, I am not surprised! It is also very loud. When you first turn it on, it is almost as of it hoovers by itself. The vibrations set it going and you need to hold on. It is also very easy to dispose of the dirt in the canister. Press of a button and you carry it away to the bin and then another button to open the flap to dispose. Haven't yet needed to clean the filter so cannot comment on this part. Using the small attachments are also very good. Some brilliant tools for cleaning window blinds etc. Beware of the super suction though and perhaps put it onto a lower mode for this. Tip: when you start the hoover, you need to make the body of it click back from the roller part (like most hoovers), DO NOT let the roller part flop down. It is heavy and I reckon with constant flopping down it will damage it eventually. Instead click the body back from the bottom.

Superb suction on detect setting picks up all dirt on all types of surfaces easy to put together and use. Slightly lighter than my older shark model easy to empty. Cord length could be a little longer but you can’t have it all! Love the speedy hoovering although the power almost devours my carpet but they come up super clean ! So glad I splashed out on this model my last shark lasted over 10 years with two dogs and x3 kids

The Shark PowerDetect Corded Upright Vacuum Cleaner has great suction and the PowerDetect/DuoClean features work really well. It picks up everything with no problem. However, the controls on the handle are a bit too easy to press — I keep knocking them and accidentally lowering the suction settings. It’s also quite bulky and bottom-heavy, which makes it not the nicest hoover to push around for longer cleans. Overall, good performance and strong suction, but the design could be a bit more user-friendly.

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.
