I bought the shark wand in place of the purple hand vac which I loved for dog hair. This wand was okay at first but after using it four to five times, it got super loud. I can’t even use it anymore because it’s so loud. I cleared out the fan with a little air to see if maybe some dust got trapped but it didn’t work. I refuse to use it now and only had it for a few months. Not very happy at all for the price
