Shark HV322 Rocket Pet Plus Corded Stick Vacuum with LED Headlights, XL Dust Cup, Lightweight, Perfect for Pet Hair Pickup, Converts to a Hand Vacuum, with (2) Pet Attachments, Bordeaux/Silver

I've had this little shark vacuum cleaner for almost 2 years and I fall in love again and again, every time I use it. This little vacuum cleaner not only is lightweight but super powerful and gets everything. AND I MEAN EVERYTHING!! I live in a smaller apartment but I have 2 dogs a cat and 4 ferrets, all of them love to shed everywhere, but this vacuum cleaner gets all of it. There's been a couple times that it would get clogged, but that was mainly user error and once I cleaned it out and did a little bit of maintenance, it worked wonderfully again. The cord length is perfect for each room with extra to spare and considering how much I paid for this vacuum, I'm definitely getting my money's worth plus some. This vacuum has 2 filters which I didn't realize when I first started using it. And so when I finally realized that it had 2 filters, they were definitely very dirty when I cleaned them out for the first time. But after cleaning them out, it works like new. If you're looking for a budget-friendly vacuum cleaner, that is powerful and easy to use this is the one for you.

By far the best vacuum I've ever used or owned. I've been using it for almost 5 months now. I'm a housekeeper, so I use a lot of other peoples' vacuums, as well as taking this vacuum to the houses without vacuums. At this point, I just bring this vacuum to all my houses, anymore, so that I don't have to use other people's inferior vacuums. I found this vacuum after using it at a client's house and fell in love with it, so bought my own to use. I'm convinced that whoever designed this vacuum must've also worked as a housekeeper while putting themselves through engineering school, and promised themselves that when they became an engineer, they would design an actually good vacuum that worked well. This vacuum has such convenient and easy to use features. I can switch from using the main floor carpet brush feature to using the small brush corner attachment feature without having to turn off the vacuum or taking my hand off the handle, just a quick press of the lever with my foot at the bottom to detach the wand from the floor carpet brush part to the corner brush feature in seconds, and then go back to the floor carpet brush part while the vacuum is still running. AMAZING. Same if I want to shorten the wand from the long neck to the short neck for use on upholstery, I don't even have to turn the thing off to switch wand lengths, it's so fast and easy. Great suction, lightweight, no bags, emptying the cannister is equally quick and simple and clean. And the head of the main floor/carpet brush attachment has such incredible range of motion going sideways left and right on a swivel, as well as laying down flat to vacuum under things. And the size is small enough in width to go between furniture gaps easily too. And it's low enough in height to vacuum under things without a lot of clearance. Whoever designed this thing was thinking of all the things. You can't go wrong with this vacuum. (And I'm not the sort of person who gets excited about appliances or vacuumes of all things. I never thought I would fall in love with a vacuum of all things, but now it's one of my most prized posessions, because it makes my job SOOO much easier and more pleasant.) This is the only review I've ever written for an item I've purchased on Amazon. I don't write reviews, but I'm so appreciative of this vacuum!

Works great. Lightweight. Cleans hardwood and carpet. Not those little throw rugs! But it’s still really good. Cord is super long. Easy to use.

So first off this is a nice vacuum. It has great suction and so far I have not had it get clogged. The collection barrel is easy to remove and clip back in place. Emptying the barrel is a bit of a trick but once you get the hang of it, it's easy to do. I love how lightweight this vacuum is. I love that it has a light. I love that it handles like a battery-powered stick vacuum but with the power of a corded vacuum. Another thing I love is that you can easily remove the main attachment when vacuuming to have a long open-ended stick for vacuuming up areas that are difficult for the regular attachment to reach. This is so seamless and easy it is one of my favorite features about this vacuum. Here is where I wish they would improve it. I understand it will never be able to stand on its own due to be top-heavy but including a holder to install on the wall would have been nice since most stick vacuums have one. If this holder could hold the attachment pieces that would be great also. Next, the cord tends to tangle due to the texture of the cord. Not a big deal but it could be simply remedied by making the cord smooth. Finally, when using the larger vacuum attachment ( the regular piece) it tends to pop into the upright position way too easily requiring you to push it back down into vacuum mode with your foot. I vacuumed my house (1200sq) and I had to push the piece down probably 7 times because it would pop back up into upright mode if you got too close to vacuuming upright. There should be locking spots for this on the attachment to prevent this. These are all trivial things that would make this vacuum AMAZING. Don't get me wrong this is a very nice vacuum but Shark could make it even better with just a few minor adjustments for the consumer practicality.

I typically do not write reviews as soon as I receive a product. I like to use things for a while first to see if they actually perform as intended and seem built well enough for the long haul. I’ve owned these for about a year and a half now, so I’ve had enough time to get a good feel for how they hold up over time. I’ve got to say, these little Sharks check all the boxes. I say “these” because I ended up buying a second one after seeing how well the first performed. I live in a log cabin with wood walls, wood floors, and wood ceilings, so there are not many places for dust and dirt to hide. Every time I use one of these vacuums, I’m amazed at the amount of dirt and fine dust it pulls into the dust cup. These things are suction monsters. The vacuum is lightweight, so using it never feels like a chore. The attachments are actually useful instead of just becoming closet clutter. The vacuum head is large enough to clean open areas quickly but still compact enough to get around and under tables and chairs easily. The cord is also long enough that I can usually clean most rooms without constantly changing outlets. If you can say you actually enjoy using a vacuum cleaner, this would be the one. To be honest, there is really nothing about this vacuum that I do not like. Pros: Strong suction Lightweight and easy to use Useful attachments Good reach and maneuverability Long enough cord for most rooms Cons: None so far Bottom line: This vacuum has performed extremely well for me, and I have been satisfied enough to purchase a second one. I would repurchase and would recommend.

So far I have used this vacuum twice and It's a pretty strong stick vacuum. It works really well on carpet and hard floors. I like that it is so versatile. You can use the tools with the stick extension or attach the tools directly to the vacuum for closer jobs. It definitely has a great suction which I love about Shark vacuums. Shark has been one of my favorite brands of vacuum tools. I have used the navigator, i have a cordless hand vacuum that I use to clean my truck that works great and I had a Shark robot vacuum at one point as well. Shark vacuums have just been great machines all around. I will say the reviews about not being able to stand the vacuum up is only somewhat accurate. If the dust bin and motor are attached as you normally would to vacuum your floors then the weight of it will cause it to fall over. The roller brush part isn't wide enough or heavy enough to hold it up. However, there is a little hook down by the roller on the front of the extension tube that is meant to hold the motor and dust cup. If you remove the motor and place it on the storage hook it will stand up perfectly and become a little more compact. It distributes the weight and BOOM it stands without issues. Love the light on it too. It lit up dust and dirt I couldn't normally see. I can use it under my bed which I like because my pups like to lay under it with the toy graveyard. It's a nice machine for a 856 sq ft 1 bedroom apartment. I mostly have hard floors but it works great everywhere. Pretty decent price too for $125. The upholstery tool and brush tool are combined. To use the brush they must be together but to use the upholstery tool you push the release button and the brush will pop off to reveal the upholstery tool. Pretty nifty stuff. As other reviewers mentioned there isn't a place to store the tools but to me that is a minor inconvenience.

Aug 12 2015 Update: Had an issue with the motor & had to call cust service. Problem was handled very quickly & efficiently! Thanks! Orig REview: I researched until I was blue in the face because I do NOT like to sweep & I didn't want to buy a problem or a disappointment. Sweeping is a pain & a chore. But to my surprise every time I use this Shark it brings a SMILE! :) Wasn't sure what t to expect with this Shark,...there were some mixed reviews & opinions were helpful. Since I own several Dyson's including a Dyson 44 (I'm not happy with the D-44 or small storage of the Black & Decker Platinum 20v hand vac) I looked at buying the dyson59. Glad I chose this Shark,...though nothing is Perfect...& this Shark is not designed for all situations. PERFORMANCE: I don't try to sweep a large house,..its just not designed for that. It's great for quick, effective clean ups but has flexibility to do larger areas too. Shark give me flexibility to keep my full-size Dyson in the closet much much longer between major cleaning. That's nice. With a cord I have no batteries to run down unexpectedly. Nice. Yes I do have to find an outlet to plug it in, but it's got a very long cord which minimizes that minor annoyance. -The dust /dirt collection cup is much biGGer than the Dyson's I've tried & much easier to dump without a mess. Plus the dirt cup is easily detachable with one hand,..very convenient, well thought out,...a major plus. -The snap connections on the shaft of my portable Dyson are so loose goosey it's like trying to sweep with a droopy wet noodle & leaks suction. Not fun. -But the Rocket is ROCK SOLID! The locking couplers on the shaft are very solid w/no loss of suction. No wet noodle feeling at all. It's a lightweight metal of some sort more durable than plastic. But I resisted buying Shark for a long time because of the huckster feel to their advertising that made me resist buying. Shark's First Class Quality Engineering surprised me. OTHER PLUSSES: * * *NEW UPDATE.... When I need to store the unit I don't use the wall hook. Instead of mounting a plastic hook somewhere to hang the Shark, I lean the Sharp upright against the wall as one unit, nothing detached,....with the bottom vac head close to the wall. It's quick, easy, nothing to disassemble, no mounting hooks involved, convent storage anywhere while minimizing storage space. -Lean Storage works for me because of two small, strategically placed rubberized feet /knobs on the underside of the dust cup that helps grab the wall so it doesn't slide down. It also creates a 3-point stability between the 2 rubberized knobs & the sweeper head flat on the floor. In this 3-point position the Shark rests nicely balanced /stabilized with minimal storage space yet ready to conveniently swing into action quickly. -smartHE (smart Handy Engineering). The placement of rubber knobs is one example of what I call smartHE (Smart Handy Engineering) or smart, handy, practical engineering features that enhance Sharks performance, reduce stress & make it flat out easier /even fun to use. These small rubber knobs do double duty cushioning /stabilizing the plastic dirt cup when laying the sweeper flat on the floor. SUGG: would be helpful if Shark could enhance this upright storage feature with some pop-out rubber feet on the sweeper head & larger rubber on the bottom of the dirt bin. The 3-point storage is easy & simply needs a wall /closet etc to lean against. The rubber under the dirt cup keeps everything stable & in place,...automatically keeping itself from walking /rolling away from the wall or falling over sideways. I store it upright like this even on smooth hardwood floors. Very convenient & gives max flexibility to store it most anywhere out of sight, in an quiet corner, etc.. Nice! With a little practice it's easy to catch on to the technique & not have problems of it falling over as some reviewers have mentioned. -Vac performance works great on medium, short carpeting, hardwood floors & tile. Don't have to change height or anything,...just flip a switch that slows the beater brush on smooth surfaces. On deeper pile carpet I go to high speed. I read the directions. Easy Peasy & effective. -***UPDATE: The Sweeper's Headlight was a BIG SURPRISE. The angle & intensity allows me to actually SEE THE DIRT dirt /dust on my medium dark hard wood floors. Nothing in the marketing describes this benefit, but it's a real help to actually see where I've swept & see the dust in areas yet to be swept. NO MORE GUESSING! As a result I haven't really used any other attachment yet. The slower brush speed setting for wood floors attracts dirt & smart handy engineering keeps the spinning roller from damaging the wood floor. Never a danger of that. -Bot the motorized animal attachment for cat hair & misc on bedding. I can immediately see the results in the transparent collection container. Use Shark for steps too, but often too lazy to switch the heads & simply use my normal floor attachment for steps too,... with great success. * * * UPDATE... WHEEL NOISE & HARDWOOD FLOORS: Not an issue for me. The two large wheels have rubberized tread which deaden click clacking over wood /tile floors & superior to all-plastic wheels wheels on most vacs. -The two small spacing rollers on the front of the sweeper head are not rubberized & do make some rolling noise on wood. Some reviews reported the noise was annoying on hard floors but on balance was not an issue for me. * * * NEW TIP: IF YOU HAVE A BAD BACK or trouble bending over you can wind the electric cord without bending. While standing upright with cord in hand, simply let out enough cord to loop it over the lower hook when draw the cord back over the upper hook then let out enough length to loop under the lower hook & repeat. The cord is flexible yet stiff enough to make this work easily. With a little practice you'll catch on easily. Works for me. -Does have a nice LOOOONG cord. But I always come to an end somewhere where an just an extra 5 feet would be nice. It's one of those things where LOOOG is never long enough! An extra 5 feet would be handy if it can be safely done. -Durability & Longevity....only time will tell. But this Shark is starting from higher quality level /features than battery powered units like Dyson44 /59. That higher quality & attention to detail usually translates to durability & longevity. GREATEST STRENGTH: HIGH QUALITY & VERSATILITY. Does not pretend to be a full size vacuum. But delivers Big time features. Shark adapts well to most situations /hardwood /tile /medium & short carpet, under furniture & hard to reach places with excellent heppa filtration that's easy to clean & refuse. No special filters to constantly buy. So it's versatile, self contained & easy to maintain filters with peak performance. It is wrist arm intensive so if you're handicapped in those areas you may want to stay with traditional floor sleepers,,,but can always give it a 30 day test /return. -Usually avail at a lower price than battery powered competitors. With Shark there's no limit on run time,...no expensive batteries to wear out or repurcha$e. Just plug & run. -TOO MUCH: Suction & cleaning performance are excellent. Some sweepers I've used have TOO MUCH suction making it tough to easily move the sweeper across the carpet because it sucks down on the floor /carpet & won't glide. No problem here w/Shark due to smart engineering that manages the suction well & picks up the dirt. With a little care & technique I can sweep even loose throw carpets without it being sucked off the floor into the sweeper head. SUGG: it would be nice if Shark had a safety overload pop-out reset switch to protect the head roller & motor if something gets caught in the roller. CONS & More SUGGS: There aren't many. Plastic wall mounting hook is a little weak. But that's not an issue for me since I use the handy 3-point storage for leaning against a wall in a closet or empty corner out of sight yet close at hand. This makes sweeping quick & effective,...not a big production. An extra 5ft on the cord would be nice. Extra lights on the sweeper head that shine not only to the front, but to the sides for larger viewing area would be nice. Adjust the motor to get rid of the annoying whine. A simple quick wheel lock to keep the unit from rolling away from the wall when storing /leaning it upright. -A larger accessory bag that closes more secure with a couple fabric loops for hanging would be nice. I don't change accessories very often & store them in the handy bag on a hook in my closet. Some reviewers prefer having all attachments on the shaft at all times, but for my taste that reduces portability & performance which is Shark. Besides, I can use my big, bulky sweeper if I want all my attachments at my fingertips. * * * UPDATE: MY CAT ALWAYS JETS out of the room whenever I start a sweeper. To my compete surprise, my cat GRACIE just calmly sat there watching me sweep away! Who knew?! Ha! SHARK IS CAT ENDORSED... :). BOTT LINE: Brings a s-m-i-l-e every time I use it. Pushing my Shark I feel smart, refined & minimal. Now when going back & pushing my full sized vac I feel clunky & out of step. Just sayin. Unexpectedly gives me a smile & lift on what used to be a chore. After owning 3/4 Dysons, I finally chose to break away from all that overpriced hype & poorly fitting cheap plastic. It was hard to convince myself to do that. I know we're just talking about a sweeper here, but the feeling of freedom & discovery was worth it. This shark delivered solutions for all the annoyances that were trapping me with Dyson & other brands. Shark's smartHE (smart Handy Engineering) features are second to none. Superior fit /finish, exceptional cleaning performance, versatility, larger collection cup easily removable, smarter design, usually less expensive... this Shark is a winner in my book. Glad I gave it a try. Our cat Grace is much happier, too. HIGHLY Recommend. EASILY EARNS 5-STARS!

I had an "original?" Shark for years and I adored it. It was effective, quieter than most vacuums and did all the vacuuming tasks I required. Then, it died. Little did I know that finding a suitable replacement for "The Shark" would prove to be more difficult than adopting a blond-haired, blue-eyed baby. I purchased and returned 8 vacuums. I was beginning to feel like Goldilocks. I wanted another Shark but all the high-end Sharks have a problem with getting the wand out of the vacuum. Apparently, it is a "known defect". I am not going to pay $250+ and not be able to use the wand. Back went the Sharks to Costco or Amazon. Then came the Bissell candidates. They were acceptable but, they smelled. My husband and I could never really identify the odor but decided they were a potpourri of petrochemicals. Back went the Bissells. I am certain American Express was wondering what was going in our household; 8 vacuum purchases in one month. Then, I came upon the Shark Rocket that some company who does such things rated as Shark's best vacuum. We ordered one and it sat in the entryway until I could muster the courage to open it and try it. Here are the "Pros". It is really lightweight and does an absolutely incredible job on those horrible Pergo floors that seem to populate every house, condo and apartment in the world. It also gobbles up dust bunnies with enthusiasm. Plus, the vacuum head is low enough to the ground that the vacuum can actually get under cabinets, furniture etc. And, now the "cons". The vacuum will not stand up by itself. You have to lean it against something if you want to turn it off. But then again there are a lot of people who do not stand up for or by themselves either so maybe that is a push either way. Number 2 on my list would be the difficulty opening the dirt holder but, really if I had a choice between a difficult to remove dirt holder and absolutely not being able to remove the wand in a higher end Shark, I would go with the dirt remover. And, lastly, there is no place on the vacuum to hang the accessory tools but, wait, you can purchase an add-on gadget for that very purpose. And now you want to put your vacuum away, so you have to find somewhere to lean it against. This is a good basic vacuum cleaner for now. I am holding out hope Shark will read all the reviews about the wand not releasing on the higher end Sharks and fix the "known problem". But again, for now, I will stick with this little guy.

Llevamos poco más de 3 semanas con la aspiradora y es muy buena! La recomiendo mucho, el cable no es molestia y hace que se tenga muy buena potencia. Muy funcional, solo sería bueno incluyera el accesorio para colgarla.

The Shark Rocket TruePet Ultra-Light Upright (HV322) vacuum cleaner has truly exceeded my expectations. From the moment I started using it, I was blown away by its exceptional performance. Its ultra-light design makes maneuvering around my home a breeze, and the powerful suction capabilities are simply outstanding. One of the standout features of this vacuum is its TruePet motorized brush, which effortlessly tackles pet hair and debris on both carpets and hard floors. As a pet owner, this has been a game-changer for me. The advanced swivel steering allows me to effortlessly reach even the most challenging corners and under furniture, ensuring a thorough clean every time. I also appreciate the versatility of the Shark Rocket HV322, as it easily converts into a handheld vacuum for smaller tasks. The bagless design and easy-to-empty dust cup are convenient and cost-effective. It's a reliable, durable, and efficient cleaning companion. If you're in the market for a vacuum that combines power, versatility, and lightweight convenience, the Shark Rocket TruePet Ultra-Light Upright (HV322) is an excellent choice that I highly recommend.

I had really high expectations on this vacuum based on the reviews. Unfortunately, the engine was making a weird noise and smelling burnt. I will return it.

Recién empecé a usarla y ha funcionado bastante bien, llego antes de la fecha que se esperaba en perfectas condiciones la caja, bien empaquetada, cumple lo que anuncia quita el pelo de mi perrita es de pelo corto y aun asi lo aspira muy bien de los sillones, aunque debo decir es más pesada de lo que pensaba y es difícil usarla por largo tiempo pero cumple perfecto su función

I just finished vacuuming my house for the first time with this baby. It has a special setting for area rugs and hard floors.... the bar still rotates but at a slower rate so debris doesn't get tossed everywhere.... amazing! the vacuum can maneuver itself everywhere in my home and it was so easy to do my stairs and get under my bed, something I was unable to do with my previous upright. The suction is out of this world. I never thought I would have my life changed by a vacuum. There are concerns on here about the small cannister but I enjoyed emptying it and analyzing the copioys amounts of dust that my previous vacuum left behind. It comes with so many tools as well that were not mentioned in the ad.
