Shark Rocket cleans hard floors, deep-cleans carpets, and easily converts to a lightweight handheld vacuum for versatile floor-to-ceiling cleaning. It also features a removable dust cup, Advanced Swivel Steering, and LED headlights to reveal pet hair and hidden debris—all with a self-cleaning brushroll for powerful pet hair pickup with no hair wrap. Review: Excellent Product - The photo is how it sits and rides in my car and I carry it into homes in 2 parts, vacuum in left hand, dust cup in right hand. I like the weight and manuverability. I love the ease of putting it together. I love the long cord and ease of emptying dust cup and rinsing/drying at end of day. Cons would be the top heaviness, but the style, with the hand-grip in between is nice and balances the weight. I don't mind laying the vacuum down to move small items out of the way. Older people may have trouble with that. You have to be careful if leaning it up against something, as it can fall down if not propped up securely. At end of day I have the dust cup off the top and it rests on the ground, as in picture. It doesn't vacuum SOME bath rugs easily, while it vacuums others fine. Weight of bath rugs seems to be the factor, as I've used it on both short fluff and shag. (Update: it will vac a lightweight bathroom rug if I vacuum in one direction only, lift at the end, bring back and repeat) It's Narrow vacuum head seems like it takes a bit more time to cover large floors, but it saves time equally by moving between chair legs and picking up crumbs closer to edges. Works wonderfully on hardwood, laminate, carpet or linoleum. I haven't tried it on cement floors. I've only had it and used it for a week, but it seems durable and a Very good value for the money. I would purchase again and I would recommend it to others. Overall, none of these are cons for me personally. I love this purchase. I have the very 1st shark vacuum?? Where the dust cup lays flat, horizontal to the floor. You tap your foot on the release and it pops up. And an above ground "hand vac" was sold separately. I have that too. These were/are my Favorite Shark vacuums. Until I got this little wonder. I still prefer the original model but I am fast preferring the Lightweight of this one And the narrow head, which also goes Under more items than my old one because the dust cup is not down on the head. My old shark is now at Least 10 years old... closer to 15...and someone made a comment about maintenance. Absolutely! The motor is still strong on my old one but it started acting up. So while I waited for this new model to arrive, I used each clients vacuum at their house. I was surprised how many people have sharks 😊 -different models. Several people never cleaned their filters Ever! One thought his vacuum was ruined. I took the filter out and his was disintegrating. I showed him how compacted the dirt was. Then, noticed dirt coming back out onto the floor. I opened the flap to his hose and used a chopstick and some other gadgets to pull out in clumps, compacted dirt, cat hair and cardboard from the kitty scratching boards. YES, please clean the vacuum parts at least once a month. It's so easy and your purchase will last Years! I also helped him look up his model and order new filters. This deal of a vacuum is so easy to clean and access the filters. No reason to not keep it clean. Update: I have used this vacuum for a month now. I changed it to 5 stars. I like so many features on this item-the extra LED light at the base of handheld dust cup is Great for using with the wand to see under beds and reach baseboards & so many places. Saves me from down on my knees and up again all day. I need compact, lightweight, Durable and tough vacuums for cleaning several homes a week. Review: Nice Vac! - I purchased this product as I'm getting older and wanted to transition away from my old canister vacuum as I would always get tangled up in the hose and was afraid I'd fall. This vacuum fit the bill as it doesn't have any type of hose. I'll list my pros below and some observations. PROS: (1) I was amazed at the suction of this vacuum--it really does have it and cleans well (2) It does not have a hose to get tangle up in (3) It has a cup to empty so there are no bags to buy (4) It has very nice bright lights on the floor attachment and also on the handheld portion (5) The pieces all snap together easily so it's easy to assemble and take apart when needed (6) The power cord is nice and long (7) The handheld piece does a really good job OBERSVATIONS (as I said, these are not deal breakers for me, just things I noticed): (1) The carpet/floor attachment is much small than my old vac--it does a good job buy just covers a smaller area than a larger vacuum (2) If you are transitioning from a canister vac, the handheld part is heavier as the weight is all at the top so it takes a little getting used to (3) Transitioning to a vac with the 360 head also takes a little getting used to (4) There's no clip on the stick for the attachments--although I think you can buy one (5) No cord rewind (I was used to that, but there's no place for it on this one) (6) One reviewer said he had to carry the entire vac to the trash can to empty the dust cup--NOT SO, the dust cup does come out and you only need to carry that to the trash to dispose (7) Since it's top heavy, it does not stand up on its own--you have to lay it down or against something In all, I think this is a really good little vacuum! I don't think it does quite the heavy-duty job that some jobs might require, but don't count it out--it does a really good job between deep cleanings. I'm pleased with my purchase!
