First let me say I think this vacuum works great! On the carpet it’s great and for the floors, for the most part fine, though not sure if it gets up all the fine grit my dogs track in. Jury’s still out on that. But I’m not a fan of uprights. I forgot, doh! They’re a bit heavier than I’d like and they can’t reach under beds and small tables as well as a canister vacuum. The other thing more specific with this particular vacuum. They say the hose stretches 12 feet. It probably does, but the vacuum comes tumbling down with it. Additionally the cord. This in my opinion has always been an issue with Shark vacuums. The cord stinks. And this one is even shorter than my last one. I didn’t go cordless cause was concerned about overall sucking power, but might on my next and get a canister again. But this vacuum does work quite well. I just have issues with uprights.
