Purchased mid January of 2017 and now it's mid July of 2017. The vacuum doesn't work great anymore, it doesn't pick anything up off rugs. The bottom just falls off and no longer has a tight grip, the filter clogs and you have to beat the dust and hair off of it. Pretty disappointed that it didn't even last a year.

Not sure if this unit is a dud? It worked great 1 time! I first used it to vacuum up my shop that did have a lot of sawdust. But now I don't have really great suction with this vacuum. I took an air hose and blasted the filter spotless. I blew out any dust from inside the motor too. But now, with the floor vacuum attachment, it won't even pick up a small washer. Is there a test of some sort I can try to see if there's something wrong or is this just a really weak vacuum? It's kind of ok with just the hose, but I feel like it's just not working as well as it did that first time. Anybody else have this issue?

This battery got my Roomba running around again.
Unfortunately it looks like my Roomba now has a problem and doesn't pick up dirt anymore.

This vacuum worked fine for a few months then suddenly the brush would stop moving.  I tried cleaning the brush, empty the filter, checked the belt.  I got the brush to eventually work but it then required a lot of effort to push the vacuum across my carpet.  My wife could barely move it.  I would not recommend this product.

after I few months I was only able to vacuum for 5 minutes at a time per charge. The battery would have to be charge before each use because it would not hold a charge even if not in use.
Suction became very weak. I wouldn't be able to vacuum a 3x5 area rug before the battery would die.
I've had the vacuum for less than one yer of light use, one charge a few times a month and the battery is completely dead now

We purchased it from the local retailer over 2 years ago and used ever since. The suction was good at first; however, it was gradually lost. After about 6 months of use, it still picked up the dirt, but there was quite a bit of hair left behind on the carpet which I had to pick up manually after the vacuum. My husband cleaned the brush many times but this never fully restored the suction. Finally, it has lost the suction completely. My husband thinks he can repair it by cleaning the brush, but knowing that the suction will only be suboptimal, I don't want to bother. I decided to look for a new vacuum cleaner with better suction.
In summary: it is an OK cleaner for the money if you live on a budget and are not expecting your carpets to be perfectly clean. However, if you have pets or prefer your house to be very clean, I recommend spending more and purchase a better model.

Worked like a champ the first few months bought it in march haven't moved or abused the thing I clean it every week matter of fact , but now all of a sudden it won't pick anything up its on the right low carpet setting I love seeing the lines in the carpet and it has stopped doing anything, the filters been cleaned,the containers empty so theirs no clogged up suction and now I can't get it replaced, I guess it dosent pay to buy a cheap cute vacuum online even if it is a reputable brand with a good review. .bummer'

This unit has been used for very light work - I have wood floors.  When it cleans, it is great, but now it has refused to charge, rendering it worthless.  I gave it 2 stars for a lack of longevity.  If I were rating the unit's ability to pick up items on the floor, it would receive 5 stars.  I am very, very disappointed in this item.<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Shark-Cordless-Floor-and-Carpet-Cleaner-V1930/dp/B0016O7ZNY/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Shark Cordless Floor-and-Carpet Cleaner, V1930</a>

The vacuum has good suction, but the whole thing is made of cheap plastic. Also, it doesn't glide easily across the carpet in our RV,  which is where this is being used. Overall, considering the price I paid and the minimal use it will get, it will do fine, but if you plan on using it on a regular basis, spend a little more and get a better vacuum.

It doesn't work well. Doesn't suck dust, hairs, or something up at once on carpet. I don't recommend.

Ok for kitchen floors or tile but not powerful enough for rug or carpet will not pick up debris off carpet.

I thought this vacuum was great, initially - great suction, Consumer Reports Best Buy, blah, blah blah.  Then three months after buying it and light use, the beater brushroll quit working, which means it doesn't suction on carpet.  The hose still works great, so we'll keep it clean out the ashes in the fireplace.  I bought the Bissell Total Floors Velocity as a replacement and LOVE IT!!  Check out its reviews before you waste you money and time here.

Ive never had to fuss with a vacuum as much as this one. Don't like that it doesn't pick up a little larger pieces of cat food, etc without lifting the whole vacuum and landing on the piece. The filters seem to require a lot of cleaning and clearing the lines, etc. It does a pretty decent job of vacuuming carpets. Its easy to use the detachable canister. The hose is annoying as the whole vacuum will fall over occasionally because they didn't make it bendy or moveable enough. Its fairly light and easy to store away and carry up and down the stairs. Unfortunately,  I would not buy this particular vacuum again. Not sure about the other Dyson vacuums.

I bought this cordless to use for quick vacuuming of my kitchen rugs that need it everyday. It's awesome!! It only runs for about 16 minutes but the Dyson cordless only runs 4-6 minutes. I can do several rooms in 16 minutes and I LOVE no cord and I LOVE no bags.

So I've had this vacuum less than a year and now it no longer vacuums. I've cleaned the filters and every place inside that can be cleaned several times, but it still doesn't vacuum. And the pole that leads into the chamber where the dirt initially flows, gets clogged easily, actually constantly. At this point the vacuum merely spreads the dirt around the floor.

Bad vaccum! It doesn't "suck" anymore--worked well for the first few months and even after cleaning the filter it fails to pick up most anything. Just kind of spreads dirt around on the floor...

There is little to no power on this vacuum cleaner.  It barely picks up holiday tinsel.

This is the second one in a week. On both, the rug beater stops after about 20 feet worth of carpet. You have to turn it off then on again to get it to work again. But then it turns off after about 5 feet of carpet. Off then on etc.... The suction is poor at best. It won't suck the dust from my bathroom fans in the ceiling using the attachments. Seems to just get by using it on hardwood floors, but only if the rug beater is turned on. I also have the older Hoover cordless Linux which works much better. You would think the newer technology would work at least as good and not worse as the old. What was Hoover thinking? They should fire the engineer that approved this design.
