POWERDETECT Ultra-Light Corded Stick Vacuum with DuoClean Technology, Self-Cleaning Brushroll for No Hair Wrap, Anti-Allergen Complete Seal & Odor Neutralizer Technology, Eggplant, HZ4002

We originally bought the cordless shark stratos on sale at Costco, but returned it because it was extremely gutless. We decided to opt for a recorded version instead, and bought this one. This one is significantly more powerful. It’s very lightweight and easy to maneuver. Additionally, I like that I can remove the stick portion and attach the base to the suction section to do the stairs without having a long stick interfering with motion. It comes with several attachments to be able to clean, upholstery and other crevice area areas. The only thing that I find odd about this one is that you have to remove the waste cartridge in order to open it. So it doesn’t have a one touch button to immediately dump into the trash. You have to actually remove the canister. This isn’t a big issue for me. The suction power, and the extremely long cord make this one worth the cost. This was a high-end upgrade compared to our old model Bissell. We have a long-haired cat and this works really well for picking up pet fur. I also have Carpet of different pile heights. And it works on all different types. I really appreciate the feature where it automatically detects whether it’s on carpet or on hardwood. I’ve seen no issues with any scratching of the hardwood. And after owning it for several days, I am convinced that I should’ve bought this one the first time around.

This lightweight vacuum is super easy to control, get under furniture, and easily switch to hand-held in seconds. Cleaning baseboards and tight corners is so very convenient with the hand-held feature, and I LOVE the super long cord. I tried two different chargeable no-cord vacuums and they both were disasters. No suction, couldn't hold a charge, so I finally switched to the Shark stick vacuum and never looked back. Super powerful suction, very easy to empty bin (yes, it is small, but so easy to empty that I don't find it's an issue), love that it stands up on its own so I can move things around to vacuum underneath, or remove the hand-held with one hand while moving chairs with the other ... SO EASY TO USE and so powerful.

We originally purchased this vacuum for vacuuming our stairs. The canister detaches from the stick and can be used almost like a handheld vacuum. We thought it would be easier than using the attachment hose from our current upright vacuum cleaner that we had been using. It is an improvement, but not as great as we thought it would be. However, overall we love how lightweight and powerful this vacuum cleaner is. We have been using it more than our previous upright vacuum because it is such a great vacuum cleaner. It automatically recognizes and adjusts to when it’s being used on carpet or hardwood floors, and it has a light, pleasing scent that is not too overpowering when using it (we have it on the lowest scent setting). We also love the bagless canister. It’s easy to empty and really surprising to see how much dust/debris that it vacuums up. We have been using it for about three months now and would highly recommend it.

Excellent at picking up loose detritus (pet hair, cat litter, dry cat food bits, etc.) on solid surfaces. Very good at picking up the same on carpet (berber and low pile). The carpet mode tends to pull forward and not really want to be pulled backwards but that's a minor issue. Using the vacuum as a hand held device works well. I have only used the crevice tool but, it's very satisfactory. Emptying the collection bin is very easy.The real horror show is the power cord. It's ghastly. For no apparent reason the manufacturer chose an incredibly stiff power cord. It took forever to get it to a usable state out of the box and it is still prone to kinking up and you have to stop and work on the cord. It seems to be getting slightly better with use. This is truly worth a one star demerit because it greatly decreases the ease of use.

Don't hesitate, buy it! This is the BEST vacuum cleaner I have ever bought! I did alot of research and comparisons before purchasing this vacuum. I'm soo glad that this is the vacuum I chose! It's outstanding!I purchased the Shark Navigator earlier this year to use as my regular weekly vacuum cleaner.I own a holland lop bunny that lives in the finished lower level. I have always used a separate vacuum for the pet hair on lower level. My last duo flex Shark gave out on me after 12 years and I decided to buy the Shark POWERDETECT in its place.Omg!! This is the best vacuum I have ever used!! I made the right choice!!1. The suction power on this baby is like no other vacuum I've used!! I couldn't believe how much suction power it has! The suction powe is the strongest that I have encountered, it maneuvers so easily on both carpet and hardwood flooring.2. It handles great moving from an area rug to the hardwood floor. With other vacuums I struggled physically with pushing and pulling when on higher plush area rugs. And on lower area rugs the other vacuums would always suck up the edges of the rug jamming the vacuum, not this one!3. It's lightweight. Great for those of us that are older or anyone that needs lightweight!4. It has a super long cord that makes it easy to cover alot more space before having to keep replugging it.5. I love that it has lights. I vacuum in the dark and it allows you to see all the dust and debris so much better with the lighting from the vacuum.6. Not all stick vacuums stand on their own, this one does!!7. Detachable so that you can vacuum and tight, hard to reach spaces as well as low and high spaces with the tools it comes with.8. The tools that come with it are perfect. I had purchased a long attachment tool for my Shark and that tool fits on the Shark PowerDetect also!! I especially love the tool for the stairs. Its light weight makes it so easy to vacuum stairs and has the best, strongest suction power than any other vacuum I've used.8. Self cleaning brush!9. It's a very flexible vacuum, meaning the top part of the vacuum has various levels to pull down thefrom the floor brush part of the vacuum. It can release all the way down to the floor, allowing you to get under most furniture, beds, etc.Like I said I have been using the Shark Navigator for the majority of my house. Not anymore!! The Shark PowerDetect beats the Shark Navigator Lift away with self cleaning brush!! I couldn't believe it!I immediately used the Shark PowerDetect on the main level of my house. I had just vacuumed the main level with the Shark Navigator a day prior. I decided to do a suction comparison and went over the main level with the Shark PowerDetect. Boy, was I amazed at how it picked up what the Shark Navigator left behind!! Again, I couldn't believe it!!This vacuum wins for me! Yes, being a stick vacuum it has a much smaller collect debris container and you have to empty more frequently. For me, the pros much outweigh that aspect.I don't normally leave reviews, especially so detailed. But the product was so impressive, that I felt compelled to share with others in the market for purchasing a new vacuum!!

After learning the hard way that refurbished vacuums are a gamble—my last refurbished Shark stick lasted almost two years before losing all suction. I decided it was time to invest in a brand-new machine. I still have a 5-year-old Shark Navigator upright but it is just too heavy, making my 62 yo back ache. It is a total workhorse, so it is now relegated to garage/deck duty.The Shark POWERDETECT Ultra-Light Corded Stick Vacuum (HZ4002) is the perfect replacement for my daily indoor cleaning!Major Pros:Self-Standing so you don't have to lean it against something as you go.Powerful Suction gives me the confidence it is doing a good job.Floor Detect which is great for automatically detecting my hardwood floors and my many area rugs.Lightweight to take pressure off my back.Direction detect that picks up debris forward and backward. I have never thought about that before but now is a must have.Self cleaning brush is a must for those of us with long hair. I won't go back!HEPA filters are crucial, especially if you have allergies.Top-Mounted Cord: The cord is located at the top of the handle, which is brilliant, as it keeps the cord out of the way, so I never have to bend over to pick it up to avoid tripping or running it over. While I’ve seen some reviewers not like the stiff cord, I don't have a problem with it.The Scent Disc: I am incredibly sensitive to strong fragrances (I absolutely hate Febreeze), and I was very hesitant about this neutralizing technology. However, you can adjust the scent intensity dial, and on the lowest setting, I hardly notice it.Upholstery/Pet Tool: The handheld attachment has a spinning roller, making it a mini-vacuum for furniture. It is absolutely awesome!Conclusion:I have no complaints about the Shark POWERDETECT. It is efficient, versatile, and has made cleaning, even with a bad back, much easier. Highly recommended

This is my second Shark Powertetect Ultra-LighT Stick Vacuum. I live in a two story house, am 85 years old, and have stenosis and sciolosis. I have Sebo vacuum cleaners on both floors, but they became too heavy for my to use. I found this vacuum cleaner with its high rating on Comsumer Reports and decided to take a chance. What a surprise. It is great. It is easy to put together, to register, and to use. I now have one on each floor as it turned out to be too difficult to carry up and down stairs. I would concur with reviewer who mention that the cord is too stiff. It would be so much easier to use and to store if the cord were more pliable. I don't mind emptying the cup and washing the filters, but I do find it tiresome to reach down into the cup to clean it out. I wonder if there could be a brush included which would reach down into the cup to help in cleaning the fine dust particles.I am able to vacuum hallway runners by using the tip I found for using the the floor option setting instead of the rug option. The Shark does not work for bathroom rugs so my Sebo will have to be used for that.I was amazed at the fine dust and cat hair which were picked up. I must admit that it is my impression that the suction with the Shark is greater than the suction of the Sebo set at its highest level.I appreciate having the light and also being able to vacuum right up to the baseboard, for example. While the Sebo does have the light option, I had not chosen the light. The Sebo has a bumper in front so it cannot vacuum right up to the baseboard. I try to be very careful when I vacuum the baseboards.I would recommend this vacuum for anyone who has mobility problems. I am now better able to cope with house cleaning. I plan the vacuuming divided into areas and days so I can better cope with my mobility problems.

I've been looking for the perfect vacuum for my old gap wooden floors for years. I had high hopes when I read the reviews on this Shark on Amazon and a well-known vacuum review channel and compared it with other brands. However; it did not live up to the hype.First the positives:1) It's lighter than my regular upright vacuum, so vacuuming stairs is a bit easier. Carrying the handle with you instead of just a hose can become a strain though, especially when vacuuming under cushions or furniture.2) It has headlights, so you can more easily see the dirt and dust.3) The pieces are easy to detach from one another with the press of a foot pedal or a toggle button. The power contacts on each piece worry me though, seems like it would be easy to damage if you continually pull them apart.4) The controls are easy to use and conveniently placed on the handle. It starts up in the detect mode, but a button on the right allows you to easily toggle through the options of hard flooring or carpet.5) The soft roller is useful, almost like a duster for your floors.6) I don't see as much dust floating around in the air after vacuuming which I'm guessing is because of the filter system.7) The on board air freshener is nice. It isn't overwhelming, and it doesn't stick around, just a fresh scent while you're vacuuming.Now for the negatives:1) If you have area rugs, forget about it. This vacuum will pull them in on either setting. I've yet to figure out how to vacuum an area rug without the vacuum trying to eat it. The vacuum then gets angry and proceeds to turn red and you have to cut it off to reset it so it will vacuum again.2) I have old hardwood floors. They have expanded & contracted over the years and now I am left with gaps between many of the boards. For years (15+) I've used the vacuum hose and small brushes to clean each and every gap. I had hoped that Shark's suction would be able to grab the dirt and dust from these gaps, but alas, it did not. It doesn't even suck up loose debris in the gaps, which is something that even my cheap upright will do.3) Comes with 3 attachments, but no brush? It comes with an upholstery attachment, extender, and a small hard floor roller but you have to order a brush. How do you vacuum baseboards, molding, the air return, and ceiling fan blades without a brush?4) Shark boasts that it has self-cleaning rollers, well my Pomeranian disagrees. Little puffs of fur have gotten hung up in the corners of the soft roller and in the smaller wheels/rollers on the base and I've had to clean it off. It hasn't stopped the rollers, yet. **Update, it will stop the roller and you have to use the small colored lever on the side to remove the roller and clean it. I have to do this ever 2 or 3 uses as it really builds up. See photos.**5) Doesn't get dirt along the edges of the room and doesn't pick up small pieces of solid debris on the first pass. While it does a great job of picking up dust, I can't figure out why it randomly kicks out anything larger.6) The detect feature only works if you have nice level flooring. Even our bathroom tile/grout makes the vacuum question its choice and you have to manually place the vacuum in hard floor mode.All in all, if you have relatively smooth, level, hard flooring and you need an expensive stick duster, this is your vacuum. If you have anything with an uneven surface you're going to confuse this vacuum. I had high hopes for Shark's line of products and thought this would be my introduction to their larger vacuum line, sadly it wasn't meant to be. Works great for a quick run through the house but I still resort to my old vacuum for the brush and crevice tools.

Did an excellent job of detecting my wood floors and removing all the dust from them.This vacuum is a little heavier than I expected it to be.

Aspiras como si llevaras a pasear a tu perrito, te lleva sola

Eu tinha uma versão anterior do Shark Duo Clean, porém esse é muito superior.Bem mais silencioso, leve, facilmente armazenavel, pois fica em pé sem tombar. Excelente potencial de aspiração. Recomendo

I have had it a month and I like it so far. What is great about it is that it is very easy to use. I live in a dusty area where I need to dust frequently.

Muy mal producto. Solo duro 3 meses antes de que dejara de funcionar y no se sabe si fue la tarjeta electronica o el motor.
