*Works great and is lightweight **MyBest.Tools** Comes apart for cleaning/fits back together easily. It replaced my carpet shampooer. Great on hardwood as well.*

Thank you! My shark hasn't worked for weeks and now it does because of your video.

So far so good with this vacuum. kzbin.infoUgkx8ISPQRRAfpAaX4msGjyodObTBnlj4T5g I was a little concerned to find it seems to be all plastic, but the reviews were good, so I'm hoping for the best. Very easy to assemble Recommened, and only attachments I've used so far work well, and are easy to use. Doing a good job on the new carpet in my bedrooms and stairs. Works well on the hardwood on my main floor too. Reasonable weight and cord length. I already knew from an earlier review that it wouldn't fit under furniture, but I can use my Eufy for that, so no problem - the high traffic areas that need a stronger suction was really what I bought this for. If it continues as it's started, it will be a good buy and well worth the money. I have had two Shark Rocket stick vacs in the past that are super easy to use, but the motors just don't last well, even with scrupulous cleaning of the filters. I'm hoping for better with this Bissell.

Nice explanation on cleaning and maintenance for this device. Thanks for doing it. I just got my Shark and you make it easy to zip over the learning curve.

[@Mateo39ish]

Thanks! Now I know how to change the filter and take out the brush.

I’ve just been pulling hairs an strings out from the rollers opening to clean it for the past 6 months. I had no idea how easy it was to pop out. Tons of hair and fibers were compacted into the sides of the roller. Now my vacuum is cleaning like it was when it was new. I had assumed it was just worn out from cleaning up after 3 kids, a long haired dog and a rabbit the sheds more than a golden retriever. Nope, it’s just me that’s worn out.

[@LarryGarfieldCrell]

The abbreviated version of your post ended at "a long haired dog and a rabbi..." and I was extremely confused...

[@treesofchi7533]

Great video, I just got mine and I needed to maintenance the front wheel so glad you did this video bud!

[@tannersloan6725]

Some people may complain about having to maintain the robot more than a regular vacuum but your saving hours on end not vacuuming yourself

[@SuggestAUsernameForMe]

Maybe one day we will have vacuums that clean and maintain themselves 🤣🤣

[@piedragon3703]

Love my Shark Vacuum🌼 It does a great job on my laminate flooring! Would definitely buy it again. I highly recommend it.

[@joy7363]

Thanks so much. Very informative!

[@ginakhill]

Super helpful thank you! With 3 daughters cleaning out the hair to the sides of the brush is gonna be key I think!

[@peteosinga8845]

I use an old toothbrush to clean it is a lot easier to get the dust out.

[@arthurvasquez7179]

Great info sir ! thank you ..👍

[@kmgothi5]

Thank you. This was very helpful. I have another question. Why would the shark beep every 3-5 seconds while on the docking station? The 3 blue bars are the only lights showing.

[@nancygillard5961]

Thanks. Good video.

T10 torgue head wrench for side brush. 6:15

[@lucybarbin8738]

I have a little kid toothbrush that I use to brush extra debris away.

[@Dangrousdave20]

Here's one for ya. I started having main brush roller issues after owning this robot for about 1yr and 3 months. In the end, by hooking a multimeter to the contacts on the main brush roller motor and watching the robot clean, it would receive a consistant 9V when it was working. However when the robot goes over a section of very low pile carpet (like a door mat), the voltages would fluctuate wildly then eventually go to 0 and roller would stop altogether. I've already replaced the main roller motor and that didn't work. Since the supplied voltage to the motor drops to 0V, i'm guessing it's the main motherboard? There's really no forums or anywhere to discuss problems like this so i'm posting it here. Considering parting the robot out altogether since I called Shark and all they could offer was a discount on a new one lmao. Help anyone?

[@clairejohnston9768]

Hi! Not sure if you will reply but I just cleaned my robot just like this video. Now it is making a strange noise from the roller. Any suggestions?

[@daveekaplan9152]

check if you put the roller back in correctly and it fits snug in the space.

[@ekoflo7114]

So the filter come out i have my for 2 years

[@carolclary3562]

the blue button is blinking and won't charge and the blue button is on on the cannister?

[@presouz5]

I’m getting 3 beeps every time I press clean it’ll make the initial clean sound but then it’ll beep 3 times and won’t do anything

[@capecodmaureenmcbride3707]

Hi

[@hrhbear]

the side brushes should pull right out no need to unscrew anything....at least thats how my sharks are.......

[@dagarywn]

How to take wheel off to get plastic price tag longer than usual. Only video in repair

[@hrhbear]

I have an much easier way to clean these vacuums....I take the dust bin to the kitchen garbage,...open the bin sideways and empty the dirt then I use my hand held shark vacuum to vacuum the filter and the bin real fast and very effeciently.....I dont need to bang the bin on the garbage can either...try it you will like it!.......

[@trevorertz8882]

Is it dog hair of your wrist hair?

[@commonsensecamper]

[@BlackbirdSpecOps]

Yeah, the shark sucks more dirt than the pos Roomba.
