This is the sweeper I’ve had for the last eight years. My hubby felt this was the best sweeper for us cause he was tired of our older canister vacuum. Within one month he hated this sweeper and we’ve had it ever since. It’s not that its a bad sweeper, its just that we decided to go with all laminate floors shortly after we bought it. This would be an excellent sweeper for plush carpets, but for hardwood, it’s heavy and bulky. Also, now that I’m pregnant, I can barely breathe after sweeping with this thing!
So, we have recently been given the opportunity to review this awesome Shark Rocket Ultra-Light Upright Vacuum! The most exciting thing about this sweeper is that it only weighs 8 pounds!! Also, did I mention we have 3 DOGS and a CAT?! You can only imagine the amount of pet hair in our house, since we have labs and they shed like CRAZY!!!
What I LOVE about this sweeper is how light it is and easy to carry!!! We have carpet in only one room, because we have so many pets and don’t ever want to have guests feel like they’re visiting a zoo! So, we sweep constantly, and carrying around a 20+lb. sweeper is very difficult! This sweeper is so portable and light! It also has GREAT SUCTION!! It worked as equally well on our area rugs!
I also love the fact that I don’t have to lug the big sweeper over carpets or outside to clean out my car! Now I can detach the smaller hand-held vacuum on top and take that outside for my car! It came with several attachments, including a crevice tool, a pet/upholstery tool, dusting brush, and a Dust-Away + 1 Pad (for hard floor services and fine dust)! It also comes with a wall mounting kit as well!
Emptying is easy too! All you do is push the empty button on the hand-help sweeper section and dump it! It literally takes me half the time to sweep my entire house!
Right now this sweeper retails for $179.99 on Shark’s site!!
