Shark WANDVAC Cordless Hand Vac, Lightweight, Portable at 1.4 lbs., Powerful Suction, Charging Dock, One-Touch Empty for Car & Home, Multi-Surface Pet Tool & Duster Crevice Tool, Rose Gold, WV201RGBRN

After receiving delivery from Amazon of Shark’s WV201RGBRN WANDVAC Cordless Hand Vac, I learned the following: 1. Receiving a product from Amazon does not mean that the product received is as-intended at time of purchase. I received an unsealed product box with an attachment missing. As directed by the product brochure, I called the SHARK Customer Service number. (The brochure is -- and should be -- enclosed in the product box.) I spoke with a very kind, responsive, and responsible SHARK CUSTOMER SERVICE representative. He advised me to register the Shark product (which I did by providing him with the requested information). He IMMEDIATELY facilitated dispatch to me of the missing attachment to the vac. NOTE: I called SHARK on Tuesday (after receiving delivery and checking the product box contents) and received the attachment from SHARK on Saturday. SHARK provided contemporaneous information re. fulfillment, dispatch, and delivery. I rate SHARK OUTSTANDING. (Thank you, SHARK!) 2. It was only after I called SHARK that I noted two Amazon coded stickers on the product box (a red and a white sticker that I have not previously encountered with prior purchases). Accordingly, I reached out to Amazon to ask if the product I received was new product or returned merchandise. I did NOT receive an answer to my question but noted that Amazon unilaterally began a 'RETURN" process -- directing me to go to a UPS Store that same week -- within a couple of days. When I objected and noted that I had registered the purchase and intended to keep it, I was also told that replacement (that I, also, did not request) would NOT be possible. 3. By this point in time I had watched multiple Youtube videos about the Shark Ion handheld vac and I used the vac; I realized that, among other things: a. It is an effective and impressive cleaning appliance b. It has small dust cup capacity and needs to be emptied perhaps more frequently than experienced by some consumers with other product.. c. If not emptied and/or if the filter needs cleaning/changing, the fully charged vac may, among other things, cut-off and/or otherwise not effectively perform. (Some posted that the product may feel warm.) d. Per the instructions, even fully charged produces minutes of operation. (The internet -- consumer postings) indicate ranges of time from 3 to 8 to 10 minutes; the outer end (not often mentioned) was 30 minutes. e. Despite what may be considered practical operational 'limitations', the effectiveness of the fully functioning vac is lauded. It is important to keep in mind the manufacturer's representations regarding intended use (such as small spill cleanup). 4. My personal conclusions: a. This product, perhaps designed as a limited-use handheld, is so effective in short-time use that consumers wish there was longer operational time and larger capacity. It is lightweight and well-designed. It is VERY effective/powerful when appropriately functioning. b. This clean-up tool is not designed for longer time and larger capacity use. c. SOME CONSUMERS report longer operational time and less need to clean or change filters. d. It may be prudent to have a supply of filters on-hand. e. SHARK has evidenced caring about its product and consumers being able to use their products effectively. f. YOUTUBE videos, as well as information provided by SHARK in its brochure and other product-related information, help even the most unmechanically-inclined consumer to understand product operation and care. 5. I have encountered challenges with my purchase of this product but at this point in time I would not hesitate to purchase additional Shark products from SHARK At this point, given the foregoing about the handheld vac I have had for less than one week, I am impressed that SHARK cares about its products and consumers of its products. I have concerns about long-term full functionality and keeping the product plugged in/charging continually but will rely on SHARK instructions.

Excellent small vacuum! I purchased this Shark WANDVAC to use on my car. The size is perfect, not bulky like many small handheld vacuums and it holds a charge well. I've used it many times in the last several months and continue to be happy about the size, the way it fits in my hand, the way I can get in to small crevices in my car, and the ease in releasing the captured dirt. One of my best purchases and I've recommended it to family. members.

I am really liking this vacuum. It's great for cleaning up after my cat with all the food he drops on the floor. Has great suction. I have a pliable plastic mat under his food and it's so strong it kept sucking it up. The attachment works much better for that. It has a quick release button for the canister. Doesn't take up much space. I currently have it on my counter until our pantry is redone and there is electric in there.

This wandvac is replacing a decade or so old handvac that's runtime was down to about ~15 seconds on a full charge. This Shark wandvac is okay. It has less suction than I was hoping, and battery life is only around 10 minutes of runtime before it requires a recharge. It's fine the small jobs it's intended for but it's not really up to the task of larger or even moderately sized jobs. I used to to vacuum the front seat carpet and floormats in my car, about a 10 minute job, and it a decent enough job, but the battery was nearly entirely discharged in the process. Assembly was easy, and it's easy enough to use. But it could do with about 30% more suction power and about 50% more battery life.

Purchased the vacuum about 4 months ago. I can count on one hand how many times it was used in the last several months since I mainly use it for hard to reach areas and the car when I’m doing a big clean. All of a sudden I noticed that it wasn’t charging and called customer support. They told me it wasn’t the charging base but the handheld unit itself. They said it was within the warranty, so they would ship me out a new vacuum handheld unit. I mean really… even if it wasn’t under the warranty, I barely used this thing, bought it like 100 days ago and I just paid over $100 for a glorified Dustbuster. The real reason I’m placing this 1-star review isn’t even that it stopped working after 4 months of light use, it’s also that I paid so much for it and they charged me over $20 to ship the new unit which is supposedly still under warranty. Not okay. I thought for sure since shark is cheaper than dyson, and tends to get pretty good reviews (I found this one only after my searching on the best handheld on consumer reports), that it would be pretty solid, but maybe a bit worse than dyson. As far as performance while it worked, I was pleasantly surprised. It picked up the tiniest speck of dust and large pellets from around my pellet stove. Cleaned sand out of the car like nobody’s business. I’m short, before it suddenly died, I would have given it a solid 5-stars, which is saying a lot given my standards for product performance. So disappointed that this just stopped working tho, I was thinking it would be as solid as some other more expensive items that paid for themselves over time because of how sturdy they were. I bought 3 cheap immersion blenders which all proceeded to break working minutes to a couple weeks of using them before buying a Bamix. It was 5x the cost, but it’s going strong still (bought it in 2009)!! That is what I hoped for with this being way more expensive than a $30 Dustbuster, but my parent’s Dustbuster has been going strong for 5 years. It’s not the best suction, and it’s clunky and unsightly, but it’s lasted. I have another plug-in large shark vacuum, which I have to say has done well since we got it a few years ago, so I started trusting the brand, but this has me thinking otherwise. I’ll try to update this review once the new handheld unit comes in. Hopefully they just don’t send me another faulty unit especially since making me foot the shipping charge. Update 2/2/22: After Shark made ME for shipping of the new handset (that is what they said the faulty part was), it arrived today. It was dirty, used, and contained no battery. I thought for sure it must be easy then to remove the battery from the old model and place in the new one. It definitely was not. I ended up destroying my knuckles and bleeding everywhere. I finally got the old battery in the new handset and it does not work or charge. I also noticed that the "new" handset is an older model. Now I'm out over $150 for this glorified dust buster. We're definitely going to call again and see if they will fix this mess.

I’ve owned a few handheld vacuums over the years, but the Shark WANDVAC is in a league of its own when it comes to design and convenience. It’s about the size of a wine bottle and sits right on the floor behind a recliner without looking bulky. For such a lightweight tool, the suction is impressive. It picks up everything from spilled coffee grounds and crumbs to stray hair and dust bunnies instantly.

Just got this but my first use was very satisfactory and what I expected from the description. I really like the streamlined shape and the ease of emptying. The suction appears strong, it is lightweight, and it is simple to use. As usual with these, how you angle the nozzle affects the effectiveness of the suction. I really like this for picking up hair and lint and dust between vacuuming and mopping days and since the hair is removed by this machine hair doesnt get tangled around the big vacuum rollers and need to be cut out. It appears as well made as my other Shark items. It has a high price for something like this but I bought it on sale so that swayed me to order it. Not too noisy. You are supposed to keep it in the charger so I will have to wait a while to see if the batteries hold up or are compromised by the constant charging.

I live in a small space with a cat and he tends to scatter some litter everyday even with the shield on the box and a litter mat. It just looks messy and I'm sure isn't nice on his paws (or my feet!) so I was looking for something with a small space footprint that was still powerful as cat litter is tricky for vacuums with its weight and dust. I have a powerful full sized vacuum but hauling it out of the closet every day and unwrapping the cord and plugging it in for a little bit of scattered litter...let's just say I'm lazy. Plus, it terrifies the cat. You can see it in the video but this little Shark does great. It doesn't pick up every last piece down in the carpet and crevices, but to be honest, I was really surprised at the power it had to pick up most of it, even where I had spilled a little pile with the new bag. It's enough to make it look nice and tidy, keep the litter off the floor, and use daily when I scoop the box. It's surprisingly quiet for the power and doesn't terrify the cat if he's in the other room. It's sleek and looks nice in my small living space plugged into the wall. It also picked up dirt off the chair after the cat decided to play in my potted plant one day. I cleaned up in just a minute without the big vacuum. It doesn't run a really long time (maybe 5 minutes? I didn't time it) but that's perfect for my needs. I'll trade more power for less run time. The filter did get a bit clogged so I'll have to make sure to periodically wash that so the vacuum stays in good shape, but that's very typical of cat litter. It's hard on vacuums. One nice feature is the cup filled up the first time I was trying it out and I didn't realize it and it shut itself off. I emptied the cup and wiped off the filter and it started right back up. Probably a safety feature but good if you're not paying attention and accidentally overfill the cup or clog the filter. I don't think this would work for a multiple cat home or cat rescue. You have bigger cleaning needs with longer run time and power needed. But for a small living space and 1-2 pets, it's perfect. Sleek and gets the job done in between large vacuum days. I'll see how long it lasts but so far am very happy with my purchase.

Great quality product. Highly recommended.

Great vacuums powerful light weight great for home or car . Will buy again or promote product to others.

You'll need a 2 pin plug adaptor. But an excellent small vacuum.

It is compact, powerful, and very handy to hoover up small amounts of crumbs, dust etc.

Excelente producto! Cumple con su función.
