I’m a repeat customer. I bought the Shark Professional Lift Away a number of years ago and it still works as well as the day I bought it. I wanted to try the Shark Stratos and I am very pleased with my purchase. These are the things I notice between these two models. The Stratos feels heavier to me and seems louder. And I think I like the handle shape of the Pro fits better in my hand. I love the Stratos on my LVF and tile floors and also on ultra plush area rugs. The Shark Stratos is really easy to use, has great suction and is very flexible for all cleaning jobs. The odor technology is a great addition, it’s just a nice clean smell, not obnoxious or overpowering. If you want all the tools and accessories just buy the next model up. I bought an adapter so I can use the tools that came with my pro. The under appliance wand with the Stratos is an upgrade from the pro. Love my Sharks!

This vacuum is seriously the best! I read reviews of different vacuums for a few weeks before deciding to purchase this Stratos vacuum. We have a toy Aussie dog who sheds constantly so we needed something that would pick up pet hair. I am so impressed with this vacuum! The best part is the self cleaning brush roll. Other vacuums brushes just got all wrapped up with hair but, this one has NONE! It cleans deeper in the carpet than other vacuums too so even our old carpet feels nice! The odor neutralizer gives it a fresh scent while vacuuming which is nice. One downfall is I wish the self cleaning pet power brush came with it or sold separately without all the other pieces. For now, I just use the upholstery brush for the stairs. Anyways, I am so happy with this purchase and be a first time Shark owner!

Bought the Stratos vacuum September 28, 2022. Have used the shark vacuums for past ten years. The Stratos is the most powerful shark vacuum I have used. Love the scent technology, love the way the disposal bin releases the dirt and this vacuum can suck anything in its path. The only thing that I have a problem is the dust that is left around the bin container and the sponge filter already after a month of vacuuming needs replacing. If it already looks like this after a month, I can't imagine what it would look like in 6 months. Would have rated this vacuum a 5 if not for this problem.

I love shark vacuums but they are beginning to be made more cheaply. The one I just bought 2-3 mths ago, a piece broke off of it that holds the tank part onto the vacuum. I will be contacting them about it.

I was very excited to purchase this vacuum cleaner. It does the job as far as vacuum. It does pull more up, but the weight of this vacuum cleaner wears me out. It's hard to control which direction is going to go with the weight. I am a sharp person. I love the shark vacuum cleaner I have four I have a little handheld. I have another one that has that short that has the head on it. I also have the shark floor cleaner, but this vacuum cleaner is too heavy , so that's my problem with it somehow it needs to be corrected. I am 71 years old and I work every day but this vacuum cleaner wears me out to take back in with it so this is this is my report. Thank you I love I love the shark vacuum cleaner, but I do not know if I will ever purchase another one until I find out what it is. Thank you.
