Shark CH963AMZ 2-in-1 Cordless & Handheld Vacuum Ultracyclone System, Ultra-Lightweight and Portable for Car and Home, White

I had a different Shark handheld vacuum that I used for cleaning up after my kids, but I killed it after a few years. I knew I shouldnt keep it plugged in all the time, but who can remember to unplug it as soon as its done charging? The suction was great and I loved it, but another thing was the charge would only last 10 minutes at the most. I got rid of that one and started searching for a replacement. I wanted one with powerful suction and with a lithium-ion battery, so I could charge it whenever I want and not have to worry about unplugging it right away. I was hoping to get one around $50, but came across this. It was $149... Way more than I wanted to spend. :( But I got this because it had everything I wanted, plus its a stick vacuum! Oh my gosh. Ive had this vacuum for 2 months now, and every time I use it, I tell my husband how much I love it! Its just that awesome! I use it as a stick vacuum most of the time to clean up after my kids. I can easily get all the food and crumbs they drop under the table and chairs, without moving the chairs! I also use it in the living room to clean up more crumbs from their snacks on the carpet and couch. I still need my upright vacuum (also a Shark) to deep clean the carpets, but this does a pretty amazing job too! I love how its so light-weight and cordless, so its perfect for quick cleaning when I dont want to get my big vacuum out. The charge lasts so long too! It has never died on me and I go all over the house with it! But after I bought mine, the price dropped to $119! :( Ugh! But Im still glad I bought it when I did, because with kids and pets, I really needed it! Update 11/30/2022: Ive had this vacuum for almost 6 moths now, and still love it!! It works great and I also use it to clean my mini van. It gets so much tiny dirt from the floorboards that I cant even see! My kids like to use it around the house too. :)

I wouldnt call this a vacuum. Its a dust buster with an extension nozzle that allows you to easily pick up crumbs or other detritus from hard surfaces without having to bend over. I bought it to use outdoors on our lanai. I remove the last floor attachment from the nozzle and it does a pretty creditable job of picking up small plant leaves. Also very handy for a quick pick up inside the house, especially in the kitchen. Cordless means quick and easy. It will work on some rugs, but dont expect this to do the job of a vacuum. The stand is essential because it would fall over without it. I love the maneuverability with the swivel head. I think this item is possibly discontinued as I went to the Shark website and put in the model number and nothing came up. Doesnt matter. It works. I hope it keeps charging!

We do not have carpet in our house so we do not need a big spinning brush vacuum. We ordered this one on sale and for the most part love it, it picks up they dirt and small items off the floor just fine and is very agile. However, within a couple of weeks we broke one of the clips that hols the main arm on the motor so every time we picked the head up off the ground the it would fall off. There was no misuse of the vacuum just normal, daily touchups. We did have a replacement arrive today so hopefully it wont happen again.

Looks great and works great! Exactly what I expected! Love shark products!!

I literally just put this together. So we shall see how battery life is. The only thing that puzzles me, is that on the base, there’s 3 spots to store the extra nozzles, but it only comes with 2. Strange. My son’s Shark was similar, but the small crevice tool also had a fold out brush. I was disappointed that this doesn’t. Also, my son’s had a turbo setting for suction, which this doesn’t either. Hopefully this lasts through 1300 sq feet without having to stop and recharge!

Could use more suction power

We have 5 large dogs that roam the entire house (including longer haired ones like German shepherds, labs and goldens) + a small animal room with bunnies, Guinea pigs, ferrets, etc. Needless to say, there’s a lot of dirt, hair and bedding everywhere when we go to clean daily. This thing works amazingly. It really picks up all the dirt, sand and dog hair with no issues. The container where it stores all the mess may seem small but it’s enough space to get my living room, hallways, second living room/office space, dining room and kitchen before emptying it. And I’ve never had an issue with it clogging due to pet hair. Only problem I have is the suction part is right in the middle, so if you’re just going over the floor quickly, it won’t get the corners or around round objects good. You’ll have to take it apart to be the smaller handheld portion to get those spaces. And it takes quite a long time to charge so I recommend leaving it plugged in every time you’re not using it. Other than that, it’s definitely worth buying it.

Don’t get me wrong I do like the vacuum but I am giving 4 star because the battery dies way to fast, it’s good for fast cleaning and small house or room. Depending on how much you need to clean, won’t last 30min.

This thing is impressive. I love all the attachments. It’s easy to clean out. I don’t know what I would do without this. Great for the daily crumbs and dirt that you don’t want to drag the big vacuum out for. Best money I’ve ever spent!

Listen! I rarely write reviews but this little charming machine deserves 10 stars! Both myself and baby have very bad allergies and I’m constantly running my two roombas. I’ve noticed I was still pulling out my corded shark vacuum to get what the roombas missed. This vacuum is amazing. It gets under all of my furniture, picks up every piece of dog hair or crumbs. It works very well on area rugs and even better on the mat in my dogs kennel. I vacuum her kennel every morning and every piece of hair is picked up. I wish the battery lasted longer than 20 minutes but I’m able to vacuum the first floor of my house with no problem. If you have kids or pets, this is a must. Dog hair is no longer an issue. This vacuum gets used several times a day. You won’t regret buying this!
