Shark Detect Clean & Empty Auto-Empty System - Lightweight Cordless Vacuum Cleaner with HEPA Filter, Portable Handheld Attachment, Crevice Tool, Ideal Stick Vacuum for Pet Hair, White, IW3511

I’ve been wanting a stick vac for awhile. I have 2 kids and a dog so I wanted something for easy, quick clean up. This is it! While yes, the battery isn’t endless, it gets the job done! I can vacuum for about an hour before it dies. That’s enough time for me to do a quick once over in 3 bedrooms, the living room, kitchen, dining room and office. It’s light, compact, easy to figure out. Being cordless, it’s just not gonna run for 5 hours straight. I feel like it charges fairly quickly tho and I love how easily it vacuums the stairs!!!

I bought this product "Like New" from a seller that has many poor reviews. I was skeptical on what the condition of the product would be in, but as I unboxed it, I was super satisfied. For it being less than half the price of a new unit, I got what appears to be a new unit without the original box. Everything was packaged in its original plastics and had its original stickers. The roller, canister, the bin, and filters had ZERO debris of it ever being used. Like I said, the only thing it didn't come with was the box and manual. It did come with a piece of paper with a qr code to the online manual. As for the product itself, I dont know how long it will last. I include a picture of where the handle attaches to the stick that seems to be a little wonky and have some slight play to it where I can see this becoming an issue down the road. The vacuum is light and easy to push around. If you dont ram it into objects or walls, it might last for a while. My home is around 700sq ft and I was able to vacuum it and go over half of it a second time before dying in auto detection mode. The 1st of 4 lights on the battery indicator went off quickly, but when the last light went out indicating me to charge it, I got about another 5 minutes before it completely shut off. When I put it on the docking station, the canister was packed pretty tight, but the auto empty sucked the canister completely empty in a blink of an eye. I read reviews that over time, the auto empty looses power and doesn't do a good job, but we will see. Like I said, I got this for 65% off the original price, so if it lasts even 2 years I'll consider it money we'll spent.

THIS THING IS AMAZING!Seriously. This has been a game changer. The self cleaning brush roll alone has been amazing. We have vacuumed near daily in a house with cats and the brush roll still looks brand new. The suction is awesome and the adaptive features are really cool and helpful. I love having a cordless vacuum that doesn't feel like it functions worse than a regular vacuum.As others have stated, the battery life isn't out of this world, but for us honestly we've never had a problem. This isn't a vacuum your entire house vacuum, but for us is for spot cleaning or doing one room here and there. I have recommended this product to multiple family members just because we love it so much.Definitely worth the price!

I bought this vacuum less than a year ago. It will be a year in 3 months. At first I was so excited and loved the vacuum. It had a stand and automatically emptied itself. That’s the best part of the entire vacuum. Literally that’s it. My first choice was a Dyson and the model I wanted was sold out so I bought this one. I knew the battery life wasn’t the best but I figured it couldn’t be HORRIBLE. It’s really not good. If you take your time cleaning you may get. Good two maybe 3 rooms vacuumed. The suction sucks. Forget kitty litter or crumbs against a wall unless you get the crevice attachment that’s the only way you’ll get that. Which is super annoying having to carry around and replace when there’s debris the regular floor head won’t pick up. And then all of a sudden it’s dead and takes hours to charge and by the time it’s charged you don’t even want ti vacuum again. There’s no extra battery to purchase either. I came to terms I spent good money on a vacuum that does an ok job and I was outside the return window and figured I would just make do till it gave out and buy a better one. Fast forward to this month and everyone refused to vacuum because what was the point? It didn’t vacuum anything up of importance. If it was bigger than a crumb it got shot around and flew somewhere else in the house or just got stuck and you’d have to dig it out to keep vacuuming. Today I went to vacuum and anytime I vacuumed the carpets it got over heated in a matter of minutes and shut off. And the little flap in the canister refuses to stay shut so when the vacuum turns off all the small debris falls back through the vacuum back onto the floor leaving an even bigger mess. I will say I hardly ever have to clean hair off the roller and it does a good job at that seeing as I shed like a dog and my hair is everywhere it’s never stuck to the roller. I called the warranty department in hopes of good news and while they were nice they had me do a video call and showed me how to clean my vacuum. It was pretty clean as I try to take care of my things and they said just see if that works and if not call back for another video call to trouble shoot some more. If it happened to be faulty they would warranty the handheld part but that’s all. The little flapper in the canister they said was faulty but the cannister was not covered and I would have to purchase a new one so all the debri wouldn’t just fall back onto the floor. However it was out of stock and I was unable to purchase even if I wanted the best they could do was have me call back after my vacuum had charged if tapping the dirt out of the filter didn’t fix the issue. And it wasn’t much. They said they wouldn’t return or replace the vacuum and to ask Amazon. I reached out to Amazon knowing it was well past my return date and they originally told me no. I finally got through to someone else who was able to do a one time return for me. I do have Amazon prime but it looks like they are going to refund me the vacuum minus $40 so many their shipping cost? I’m still waiting to get my refund as I shipped it today but am super thankful for Amazon and that they were kind enough to give me 95% refund months later. I don’t recommend this vacuum to anyone unless you just like to waste your time vacuuming and not actually cleaning. Please buy something else. The battery is horrible the suction is horrible and it just goes downhill from there. I wish I would’ve waited for my Dyson vacuum to be back in stock and didn’t think this would be equally as good. My off brand $100 vacuum lasted longer and did a better job than this.

I’ve been using this vacuum and overall, it’s a great addition to my cleaning routine. It’s very easy to use and completely cordless, which makes it super convenient for quick cleanups and moving room to room without any hassle.Battery life is impressive — it claims to last up to an hour, and I’ve found that to be accurate with normal daily use. Plenty of time to get through most of the house on a single charge.The auto-dump feature is a standout. It empties the bin with minimal mess and even alerts you when the bin is full — really thoughtful and convenient.The only downside is the suction power. It’s decent, but not quite as strong as other Shark vacuums I’ve owned in the past. It works well on hardwood and low-pile rugs, but struggles a bit on thicker carpet.Overall, a solid 4-star vacuum. If suction power were just a notch stronger, it would easily be five stars.
