Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love it!! Cleans up quickly, major suction, moves around easily!! A bit heavy. All around an awesome vacuum cleaner!

We purchased the Shark Stratos after our "other name brand" vacuum quit working. We are blown away by the performance difference! Despite vacuuming the whole house the previous day, our new Shark filled the entire debris bin in one use! The suction power that this device has is amazing and is great for pet hair (we have two cats and a dog). The added pet attachment works really well on upholstery. The unit is easy to empty and is lightweight for its size. We appreciate that there are different settings for different floor types! I'd highly recommend this to any pet owner looking for a quality vacuum!

Sweeper works well and has a very strong suction. I tried something new and so far I’m happy with product

Absolutely love this product. Replaced our, much loved, Rainbow Vacuum with amazing quality and great maneuverability. Really gets our pet hair up which was the highest priority.

WOW, I’m a long time Kirby fan and have had the same unit for 23 years. It recently broke down and I had to jump back into the Vacuum game and boy have things changed. I am absolutely impressed with the power of this thing and was surprised by the amount of fine dust particles this thing happens to find every time I run it! The features of this were impressive and super useful, while I do like to have the convenience of one thing that can do everything, even though I fixed up our old Kirby, we are keeping this unit because it is just too good. I’m very happy, so much so that after buying this we also purchased the Carpet cleaner which is also excellent. Great purchase and now it’s like I have a brand new sports car with this Shark Stratos and then an old fashioned t bird just under the cover in the garage. The Shark Stratos ease of use and features make it a great buy for our home anyway!

Extremely powerful. Does great job with Dog hair. We have three dogs and its the first vaccum that actually gets the hair off my couches. Slight learning curve with how to seperate all the parts but overrall easy to operate.

This vacuum makes cleaning our house very easy. We've used several uprights, and this one may be the best at handling all the different surfaces in our house. We have a good variety of flooring to put it to work on too. We have hard woods, tile, carpet and several styles of rugs. Speaking of which, it handles our shag-style rug better than any other vacuum we've used. Typicality maneuvering over that shag rug is difficult, since the vacuum wants to either suck up the shag, or it's not strong enough to clean it. This one seems to be great at both. It also works very well on our stairs by using the attachments and removing the "pod", instead of carrying the entire vacuum up and down the stairs. My wife also appreciates the headlights on the front of the vacuum, since not all come with those, and it can definitely help to see things you may otherwise miss. It would be nice to have a small light on the handle though as well, to light up smaller or hard to reach areas when you're not using the main brush roller part. Another great thing about this vacuum is the air cleaner. It makes areas cleaned seem fresh and smell nice. While it never felt overpowering to us, it also has the option to dial down the amount that is used. It really is a nice addition that I'm surprised I haven't heard or seen this before. Setup and the mild assembly required when first using the vacuum is very simple too. Which also applies to maintenance. Every place that could possibly need maintenance is easily accessible to clean or replace if need be. It seems like it's built to last. We also haven't had any hair or fuzz wind around the main roller yet either, which is probably worth it for this vacuum alone. Pros: easy setup, powerful vacuuming, not tangled hair or fuzz, nice addition of air freshening, easy to maneuver even in typically difficult surfaces Cons: no light on handle (this is pretty much the only negative I could find with this vacuum)

Easy to assemble. Great power on all types of floors.

Thus vacuum works really well and the air freshener is a nice touch.

I love Shark vacuums... until around the 3rd year when they seem to start slowing down. This one came highly rated & I got the warranty so hopefully this wont be an issue. My floors look great, its a really powerful vacuum. It works twice as efficiently as the dyson i bought last year. I also like the air freshener addition to the base, it works!

I appreciate Best Buy’s return policy. The vacuum was way too powerful to go from hard wood to area rugs and I found it much to heavy to use on stairs so had to return but if you’re looking for a powerful vacuum this might be fine.

I needed to replace my dyson (had it 4 years and the vacuum head stopped spinning) i used my geek squad protection and got the value of my dyson to put towards a new vacuum (SO USEFUL!) i did some research about best vacuums for pets, carpets- low and high, this one really caught my eye, it has all the attachments that i will actually use, the sucking power is great and the unit is not too heavy, the canister detaches easily for getting hard to reach places. It is a little on the nosier side of vacuums I've had but the end result is worth it! Very happy with my purchase.

Great vacuum, used in on carpet after using our old one and it picks up a lot more fine embedded dirt from carpet. The new roller is noticeable better in picking up dog hair or our carpets. The electrical cord is much longer than our other vacuum, we can reach the entire 1st floor by using just two outlets. Our other vacuum we had to use 4.

Im in love with this vacuum it literally picks up everything and leaves my house smelling fresh and i love that im able to remove the bin and get into the crevices that the vacuum cant reach

Great item, happy with it. Works very good as described lot of power

No regrets.. definitely the most powerful vacuum cleaner I’ve owned. After the first use it let me know that my previous vacuum cleaner retired way before it quit on me. I’ve had many other name brand vacuums and none compare with this one. Way to go Shark!

Works great, strong suction, and really easy to maneuver.

I purchased the Shark - Stratos Upright Vacuum with DuoClean PowerFins HairPro, Self-Cleaning Brushroll, Odor Neutralizer Technology - Navy for its suction power, and because of Shark vacuums we purchased in the past. They are high quality, backed by a great warranty, and they work better than the competition. This vac is by far Sharks best to date. It works exceptionally well cleaning up litter from our three cats, and works even better on general floor dirt. I would highly recommend this vac even though it is on the heavy side, but is well balanced, and works effortlessly. You will not be disappointed, especially if you have pets.

This vacuum is amazing! I always bought the Dyson, but the sales associate was so helpful and heard our needs. I will not go back to Dyson

Cleans amazingly! Best vaccum I've ever owned! My dog sheds like crazy and the amount this picks up is ridiculous.
