The cord will be the downfall of this vacuum
I really do like this vacuum. I have a shark full size vacuum that is great and love having a corded stick vacuum for quick yet complete cleaning. I have long thick hair that sheds like crazy and it never gets wrapped around the brushrolls. The smaller canister honestly makes it so much easier to empty out the debris and dust, as my old battery stick vacuum from another company would get stuck by the filter and I’d have to stick my hands in to grab all the gross stuff. The lights make it easy to maneuver and see crud on your floors. Overall, it’s great and I honestly love it… for the most part. I bet you’re wondering, well if it’s so great then why the 2-star rating? Well - it’s the cord itself. It is the most rigid, uncooperative cord I have ever experienced on an electronic of any kind. My larger Shark has a very nice, pliable and flexible cord that makes wrapping it up and moving it around SO much easier. I thought I’d be getting a similar cord situation when ordering this one, but oh my gosh. The amount of times I have contemplated sending this back ONLY because it is a fight every single time I use it. It gets knotted and twisted so easily, it is so rigid that it barely wraps, and just when you think you’ve finally gotten it around the machine, the clip turns downward and the entire cord falls off and needs to be redone. It takes me longer to put the cord on the thing when I’m done than to actually vacuum my house. I really REALLY wish they would fix this for the next model because this will be the one reason I never buy a new Shark vacuum again.I could see people with arthritis or low mobility in their hands/fingers having a very hard time with this. PLEASE MAKE THE CORD MORE FLEXIBLE. IT SHOULD NOT BE THIS DIFFICULT TO WRAP A CORD.

Great features and powerful. Sharon
I've had this shark detect vacuum for about 2 weeks. I've used it twice so far and it is amazing! It's got power and wants to take off soon as you turn it on! It cleans like my other shark did which was also amazing but with more power. It's lighter in weight, stands upright with power control and vacuum container attached to the top. Easy to use. Easy to clean. You can use it manually in carpet or floor mode or set it to detect what you are vacuuming. I love the bigger front lights and angled front end to get under more furniture than my other one which was taller and rounded and would get stuck easily just getting to the edge of cupboards or low rise stands. It's sleek , efficient, powerful, does and excellent job .

Shark Corded Power Detect
After a month it has worked great. Suction is consistent and the auto detect transitions well and instantly between carpet and hard floors. The cord is longer than our previous Shark and I don’t have to worry about charging it. Canister works well and it fills evenly starting with the back portion so that once it’s full, it is actually full. So far so good, absolutely nothing to complain about.

Great features
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very nice stick vacuum. It stands up on its own which is big. It has what's called power detect and will determine what kind of power is needed for the floor that you vacuuming. The power is outstanding.

It’s just okay.
I’ve owned the shark powerdetect for two years now. The statement they make about no wrap hair I’d say is mildly true. It still wraps hair once in a while but it’s not hard to unwrap. The second thing and this is the main one is the cord is awful. It’s got plenty of length which is really nice but the cord is so stiff and hard it’s like dragging around a piece of hard cable. It’s hard to wrap and unwrap and maneuver around the house with. If I’d known that I’d bought a cordless.

Great replacement vacuum!
I bought this vacuum as a replacement for my other shark vacuum that lasted for over 10 years. The new features I am loving: extra cord length, the odor control, high suction, and the stand alone feature! Our house is 3200 sq ft, with a finished basement of equal size, and has both carpet, wood floors, and flexible tile-type basement flooring. This vacuum works great on all! And with 6 kids, there is a lot to vacuum!

Lightweight, forward propelling feature
This is a great vacuum. It's lightweight. It's more lightweight than most of the stick vacuums I have had. I have trouble with my joints, and this is the first vacuum I can carry around myself. The only issue I have is that the self propelling feature when I'm vacuuming can take a little bit of energy to wrestle back in, so when you're pushing forward with the vacuum, it's super easy but when you're pulling back, you get a little resistance. Other than that, it is phenomenal for people with physical limitations.

Detailed Review from Independent Customer
I did so much research before purchasing this vacuum and had trouble finding reviews that weren't marked as "incentived" so I wanted to post a thorough review. I've had this vacuum for 2 months and I love it, it is a huge upgrade for me. The things that people were complaining about in the other reivews don't feel like a problem to me but that's mostly personal preference. I don't mind that the cord is stiff, it actually makes it easier to move around when vacuuming in my opinion. I also don't mind that the cannister needs to be emptied often because it is very easy to remove and reattach and to me it shows that it's working well and picking up a lot of dust. I had considered a wireless model but I'm so glad I didn't because I never have to worry about charging it. The device is very light weight and narrow which is ideal for living in a townhouse with lots of stairs. I also appreciate that it can be used as a handheld vacuum in 2 different ways in addition to the standup form. I personally haven't had an issue with it sucking up my area rugs, it works fine on them. The detect feature works but I have found I prefer manually switching between hardwood and carpet floor types. I definitely recommend this vacuum and I hope this is helpful to others looking for an upgrade.

Works great.
I have a shark rotator upright vacuum now for 11 years and it is still working great. Since I have been impressed with it I just wanted something lighter for some smaller jobs and my hardwood floors. It works great and it has great suction also and I love how it is a lot lighter. I have been impressed with Shark.

My very favorite Shark vacuum EVER
I have been buying only Shark vacuum cleaners for many years, and each one I've had always lacked in one area, or in one feature. This one has proved to be my absolute favorite, and I can't think of anything it lacks at all. The best thing about this one is that I can get my vacuuming done in half the time because it vacuums backwards as well as forward. Amazing! The price is spectacular for this vacuum. Please don't ever discontinue this one, Shark!
