Amazon.com Review
About the size of a clothes iron, the Euro-Pro Shark handheld vacuum is great for small places, quick pick-ups, and hard-to-reach corners. A lightweight at 2.2 pounds, the 700-watt vacuum features a sturdy handle for easy maneuvering and a circular intake nozzle. It uses a 10-ounce dust cup to collect debris and a fitted fabric filter to catch smaller particles. In addition, the pleated HEPA filter traps 99.97 percent of dust, dander, and particulates to reduce the allergens in your home or workspace. Euro-Pro recommends cleaning the HEPA filter after every use and replacing it about every three months. The Shark's dusting brush and crevice tool can attach directly to the intake mouth or to the end of the flexible hose, and the hose can be used by itself for tight corners. The vacuum comes with a shoulder strap for on-the-move use and a 16-foot-7-inch power cord. Euro-Pro includes a limited one-year warranty. --Emily Bedard

1 out of 5 stars Zero Stars   December 30, 2007
PRO:
- I kept the box, so I can gift this pig to some unsuspecting sole

CON:
- terrible balance - it feels like using a chainsaw
- runs hot
- runs loud
- hopper fills quickly and must be cleaned out frequently
- attachments do not snuggly fit and come detached easily & the hose is too stiff and springy
- not convenient to use with the cumbersome attachments that fall off and the stiff electrical cord

Good for:
- gifting to someone you don't really like, or donating to charity for the tax write-off
- hooking it up to a motion detector and putting it outside to scare off burglars, startle small children at Halloween and keep deer out of your garden

Bad for:
- its intended purpose


5 out of 5 stars Cheap, lightweight, picks up a bowling ball...   December 18, 2006
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

It's hard to imagine anyone would need a more powerful minivac, as it really does lift a bowling ball, so of course it figures to run hot and be noisey. Yes enough power to quickly clean up after sawing wood or drilling metal, car floorboards, cat litter, etc.; keeps the wife happy when I don't leave a mess.

You will need a upright or canister for carpets but this is perfect for a quick small job.

Bonus: gets into corners and edges perfectly!

As for cleaning/replacing the HEPA, my solution works: I don't bother with doing either! I just empthy the cup and shake the cloth filter, takes 15 seconds total. So what if the filter then doesn't keep the air completely free of dust, or it loses a little suction? I have mine a few years and even with a dirty filter it still lifts a bowling ball, more to the point it quickly cleans up 100% of any mess right through the dirty cloth (HEPA) filter. Let the fastidious folks bother with washing / replacing it, I say (Brooklyn accent) don't worry about it).




4 out of 5 stars Good for some uses   July 23, 2006
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I agree with some other reviewers that the unit runs on the hot side, but we've had ours for several years and it's still working great! My biggest complaint is that it is so good at sucking up dust particles that the filter quickly clogs and won't pick up larger items. Then the filter needs to be banged out in order to restore suction.

It's great for vacuuming stairs and cars and small things...but I usually have to bang out the filter 2 or 3 times when doing the stairs or the car. Kind of a pain, but at the same time it's reassuring to know that it's getting that much dust out of the carpet.

I would not use it for big jobs, but think it works great for small jobs. The biggest issue is trying to track down replacement filters...when I find them I usually buy a couple.

1 out of 5 stars Don't buy Shark!   March 14, 2005
 3 out of 4 found this review helpful

I bought a different model of Shark vacuum cleaner about three months ago at a Target store near my home. It's a different model than the ones sold on Amazon, but after reading the reviews here from customers who have purchased different models the results are the same: Shark vacuum cleaners die out after a few months, and even when they work for a few short months they are so high maintenance it's not worth it. Stick with Eureka, Hoover or another trusted brand. The only thing going for Shark vacs is that they look good.....
