Customer Ratings & Reviews

I use it in my office . It has excellent suction . Easy to use and very light for using everywhere .

==== Summary ==== The Shark Ion W1 hand-held vacuum is a great little product that balances many things out very well. It is light, ergonomic, easy to operate & charge, easy to clean & maintain, and has enough suction power to clean up most things. I found it most useful when vacuuming my cars, ceiling fans, and getting those little crevices on and between furniture. It's good stuff. *Pros: -Light (1.4 lbs) and well-balanced. -Ergonomic and easy to hold. -Easy maneuverability to get at those little spots & crevices. -Simple cleanup and maintenance. -For its size, it's decently powerful. -Cool battery charging dock with LED light indicator. *Neutral: -The motor sometimes emits a high-pitched whine during longer use. -Needs a charge after about 10 minutes. -Has a difficult time sucking up very small debris. *Cons: -None. ==== Design ==== I'm really liking the design of the Shark Ion W1. I prefer its stick-like form-factor to my other hand-held vacuum cleaner which is a gun-like trigger design. At 1.4 lbs, it is light and manageable and I found it very easy to navigate and maneuver through tight spaces. Emptying the dust cup is a simple one-button press operation and all the parts that can be cleaned are easily and quickly accessible. I like that the filter can be cleaned by simply running it underneath some water and letting it dry for 24 hours. The charging dock accepts the vacuum smoothly and perfectly and I appreciate the blinking LED light indicators that show the charge status of the vacuum at a quick glance. The included accessories - a Multi-Surface Pet Tool and Duster Crevice Tool - slide into the Ion easily and work well as intended. The build quality and fit-and-finish of the Ion W1 are fantastic. ==== Functionality & Performance ==== The Ion W1 - with its 14.4 V, 11.1 A, 120W brushless motor - delivers good but not phenomenal performance when it comes to picking up debris. I first used the Ion to vacuum the interior of my 4-door sedan and it took multiple passes before it picked up all the debris on the floor mats and on the seats. The Ion had difficulty picking up really small debris such as beach sand, clingy pet hair, and tiny grass debris. Still, I'd say it managed to get rid of about 95% of debris which is impressive considering its small size and low amperage power. The Ion did much better when I used it to dust up around the house. It picked up everything on my leather couch and other furniture and did a fantastic job sucking up the dust bunnies on my ceiling fans. As Shark describes it, the Ion is a great supplemental tool that one can quickly pull out and use for quick and simple jobs. Viewed in that light, its suction performance and approximately 10 to 15 minute battery life are fitting and adequate. For more heavy duty stuff, you just have to use different tools. With that said, I'm satisfied and content overall with the functionality and performance of the Ion W1 and I consider it a great addition to my cleaning arsenal. ==== Closing Thoughts ==== The Shark Ion W1 is a great supplemental cleaning tool to have around the house for cleaning up small messes for which you don't want to take out the bigger and heavier tools for. High portability, lightness, and simple cleanup and operation are its greatest strengths.

This little vacuum is a game-changer! It’s super lightweight, which makes cleaning a breeze, especially in tight spaces like my car. The suction power is impressive for such a compact design, and I love the one-touch empty feature—so convenient! The charging dock is sleek and keeps it ready to go at all times. Perfect for quick clean-ups around the house!

I’ve been buying Shark hand vacs for myself and as gifts for 15 years. This new stick style took a little getting used too but it’s much lighter and the suction is fantastic. It’s also quieter. The only thing I didn’t like is the dust collection bin is much smaller than previous models. But it empties easily with a push of a button and the size of the bin hasn’t been a problem.

I like the slim size and light weight of this vac. I was looking for something with good suction that is easy to use and empty. This fits the bill. I like that the crevice tool is narrow enough to fit in the track of my patio door which makes it easy to keep clean. It was more than I wanted to spend (and went on sale right after I purchased it; isn't that always the case?) but overall am satisfied with the purchase

This lightweight hand vacuum is incredibly powerful. I love how compact it is. Sleek design. Worth every penny! Highly recommend for pet owners, too.

This is the best handheld vac I have ever used. It is amazing to get those crevices on the stairs. I used it to clean my camper van. I have used it for quick spill clean up. The suction power is fantastic! I think the best part is that it is so light, weight and easy to empty. 10 stars.

Its powerful and easy to use. No bulky hose and lightweight. Thanks very much

This Shark Wandvac is just right for getting into narrow window and door tracks. I found that I could use it for a lot of cleaning needs. It does run out of a charge after 15 minutes but that's all you need because it's so powerful. You just charge it up and finish your task. Recommend it. Lightweight and you don't have to bend down so much.

Works great, good suction , less weight.. I would recommend buying.. battery don’t last long

This is the second wand vac we purchased. It is small, lightweight and easy to use and generates pretty good suction for its size, especially when compared to our old Dustbuster. The mechanism for emptying it is very convenient and easy, although the capacity is limited - good for very small jobs.

The product is great for my needs. Picks up well. Easy to store and charge. Handles well and light weight which makes handling it easier. I use it for quick clean ups, stairs and my car. The only stack is the charge doesn't hold long enough; but it gets the job done.

Great power! Super sleek, easy to empty, handy and lightweight...

Great buy! It’s extremely light weight and comes with versatile attachments

Really powerful machine with a very compact size. I got it to pick up cat litter near the box, the steps and the car. It works great and is light and handy always ready on it charging station. It also has one button to empty and the filter comes out to wash. I really like it!

Overall, I like this small hand vac. I have two older cats and one leaves a lot of hair tufts all around the house every day. I have been using a Dyson V8 to get at this endless mess, but the Shark Ion is more convenient; although, I noticed when vacuuming the steps, it often blows (from its side vent) some of the tufts into the air - making me have to try to vacuum them out of the air. To be fair, the Dyson does this too, but to a lesser extent. I use to have a Shark Pet Perfect II which actually did a better job on stairs, and it was a lot cheaper, but it stopped charging after about 2 years.

Powerful suction and very light. I use it for my car and small space. The only issue is the short life of the battery.

This has been the best handheld vacuum cleaner that we have ever owned. It is light and easy to use. It is powerful and does a great job on floors and furniture. I highly recommend this item.

This is very handy vac. Use it serveral times a week to do spot cleanup. Great for a pet owner like me. Has enough suction power to be useful, without the hassle of setting up a full size vac.

The suction on this little thing is great, and the attachments are cleverly designed. Takes up very little space and is extremely lightweight. Very easy to use.
