The light weight of the Shark cordless wandvac system, the surprisingly strong suction, the self-cleaning roller, and the automatic emptying of the wand/stick make it an absolute winner. It is the best stick vac I have used in my 73 years of trying to keep up with quick cleans. I have two 50 pound dogs, so hair on the floor is always proclaiming the need for vacuuming. I use the Shark cordless wandvac primarily on hardwood and tiled floors, but tried it on my dogs' day-cushions by the front door. I posted a photo of the top, printed side of the cushion so you can see the difference one sweep of the wandvac clearly made. The strong suction did not grab the fabric nor did it begin to wrap any fabric around the self-cleaning roller. It was just one simple sweep and the wandvac did an amazingly thorough job! Then, I took a photo of the back sides so you could see the hair on one cushion not yet vacuumed and the amazing difference of the cleaned one next to it. I will definitely use the wandvac on room-sized rugs for quick cleaning central areas. I have already used it on hardwood and tile floors requiring transition over throw rugs, and again, there was no grabbing from the suction - just a smooth transition thoroughly cleaning both surfaces. Five minor issues I would suggest for consideration to the manufacturer: 1)The button to open and empty the main stick filter manually is right below the "on" button and can be erroneously pushed and drop all the debris back on the floor. However, the automated emptying works great, so you just have to be aware to not accidentally push the wrong button. 2)Also, you need to look carefully when placing the stick back in the charging unit, to make sure the back goes carefully into the two-sided slot rather than hanging a little bit crooked and not making the connections to clean out the stick and to recharge the stick. 3)The viewing area to determine when the charger unit's larger cup needs cleaning is hard to see. I would like for the clear viewing area to be larger and I'd like to not have to bend over with a flashlight to be able to tell how full it is. 4) There is a single location to store one of the two accessories on the stick. I would like to see both accessories stored together. A slightly different design could allow one accessory to nest inside the other, thus storing both and having access for quick use. 5)As with all stick vacs and most larger vacs, the hose and openings for debris are rather small - one inch or so? A larger opening might help to clear larger pieces of debris that currently cause a clog that must be found and cleared manually. I don't know if this could be done without losing suction power, which would be the only thing that would be reasonable to forego addressing this universal problem, to me as a consumer, at least. In the meantime. I have used Shark vacuum tools for many years, and have enjoyed the changes and improvements when I upgraded to a new version! I also purchased an expensive brand when it first came out with revolutionary changes. Shark has provided much lower-priced, yet dependably efficient products for many years now. Thanks, Shark!!
