Shark ION™ F80 Cord-Free MultiFLEX® – IF282

I had the original IF200 model that the head unit started making a noise like a grinding. I called Shark and they replaced it under warranty with the new model IF80. I was excited as they replaced the whole unit and very quickly. After first use I was disappointed as it left a lot of my dogs hair on the carpet. I thought maybe I missed something in the instructions, so I re-read them, checked the unit in case I missed packing material. Did not miss anything. My housekeeper stated she didn't like the new vacuum because it wasn't cleaning the carpet. I went and grabbed the old units powered floor cleaner and went over the carpet again and that unit picked everything up like before so whatever they did with the powered floor unit is what is bad. Again great warranty bad vacuum.

I really wanted to love this vacuum I’ve had it for about six months now. I love the portability of it and how it fits under a lot of furniture. But the tube gets clogged way too often, and the rollers get way too clogged even if I cut the hair each time. I do not have any dogs that shed just have dogs that track in dirt with their paws . So disappointed.

I needed a vacuum that can get underneath the couch and the bed because I live in basement and this vacuum is just what I needed and it does the job. Thans Shark

It worked fine for about 2 years of light use, vacuuming carpet and hardwood floors once or twice a week. The brush needed to be cleaned after almost every use because it gets wrapped in hair easily. The suction isn't very powerful so when turning off debris would often fall right back out the nozzle onto the floor. Apparently the motor burnt out and now the brush no longer spins. Despite being under warranty, Shark support would not replace the broken parts.

We love how light weight this vacuum is to maneuver. It has great pet hair removal

I do not normally write reviews but am making an exception. I love this vacuum. It is very cleverly designed to bend to get under furniture, and also fold up for storage. It is not necessary to use a docking station to charge the unit, which I find helpful since I have no wall space for a docking station, and I can charge the battery and store the unit folded up under a counter. I find the unit to be quite light, compared to others I have looked at. Also, you don't need to hold a trigger to get it to go (a poor feature on the Dysons). It comes with 2 batteries so you can be using one and charging the other. One battery is enough to vacuum most of my house. It is easy to empty the dirt cup.. I find it has good suction, and the "carpets" function is particularly effective. All over I am very happy.

I have an older Shark that's a beast, but I wanted to get a smaller cordless vac for quick cleanups. However, I find this very flimsy and it feels "fragile" .. definitely not keeping it for this kind of $$$.

Excelent cordless vacum, works as expected, lightweight and performance well
