This is my second cordless stick style vacuum, and I love it! It’s more powerful than my last one, the auto detect setting for going between hard floor and carpet works surprisingly well. But the real hero of this vacuum is how it empties the junk out of the vacuum into a storage bin when you set it on the stand to charge. This is a very practical feature that Shark has designed! I’ve also noticed that the brushes don’t get hair stuck on them nearly as bad as my last stick vacuum, which is also super helpful. My last one I had to clean off hair and empty the little dirt container every time I vacuum, not the case with this vacuum!
