I bought this vaccuum about 3 months ago and am not very impressed with it. I had a shark previously for 3 years and loved it and figured we would upgrade since our old one started to smell burning when vaccuum figured it was burning out. So when I got this one It looked a next step up but I can barely use it on my carpet becuase of how hard it is to push. I have tried changing the suction level but it still is a little hard and if I dont have the suction on I feel I am not getting everything vaccuumed. I would get another shark but definetly not this one!!
