First let me say I love Shark Vacuums and I bought this for dog hair around my house, quick crumb pick ups from my toddler and for my car. The suction is nowhere near where I expected it to be. Its great on sucking up hair but nothing else and it definitely doesn't suck anything up unless it is touching what it is sucking up (which is not what the picture shows for the dog food). It won't even suck up dog food, cheerios, little crumbs, etc. I am very upset about the money I spent on this product.
