Product Description

Amazon.com Review

At 1,000 watts, the Super Shark vacuum is more powerfaul than most other handheld models. It also comes with numerous configurations, for wide-ranging use in the house, car, or workshop, as well as variable suction to accommodate delicate surfaces. The vacuum has a bagless design, gathering debris in a dust cup that is fitted with a washable and reusable filter. The cup detaches from the front of the unit for simple emptying. In addition to the dust-cup filter, the vacuum comes with a pleated true HEPA filter to trap particulates as small as 0.3 microns. The vacuum body features a 1-1/2-inch circular suction opening that is large enough for most small jobs. For bigger tasks, the unit comes with a hose and 6-inch turbo brush. Additional tools--an extension tube, an upholstery brush with removable bristles, and a crevice tool with a flip-up brush--can be used with the hose or fitted onto the suction port directly. The unit also comes with a shoulder strap and a motor-protective thermostat that cuts power in case of overheating. Covered in rugged plastic, the Super Shark body measures 13 by 8 by 5-1/2 inches. No purring kitten, the vacuum does make some noise in use, and tools must be stored separately. --Emily Bedard

5.0 out of 5 stars The Powerfull Little Vacuum That Delivers, September 20, 2004
By 
G. Balmes (westport, washington United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Euro-Pro EP88SS Silent Super Shark Turbo Handheld Vacuum with Intelli-Sense (Kitchen)
I purchased my Shark vacuum at Sears and was so impressed that I wanted to come here on Amazon at write a review on it. I own three dogs who love to ride in the car with me and the pet hair becomes quite a problem. Using my Rainbow canister and hose with suction alone really didn't pick up the dog hair, unless I went over and over and over the upholstery until I worked the hair lose from the fabric; what a pain it was; but with the Shark with the use of the suction driven turbo head, the dirt and pet hair came right up. don't confuse this with other car vacuums. This unit really has a lot of suction to it and claims to have 1 1/2 times the suction of a your household upright, a claim I dont doubt.

The Shark comes with a 1000 watt 8.3 amp motor, convertible brush, a bristle brush for the convertible brush, crevice tool, hose, air driven turbo brush, 3 extension tubes, floor brush, and a shoulder strap. Also your cleaning tools such as the upholster brush crevis tool etc, that will fit a canister vacuum will fit on the shark too. The motor has an Intelli-Sense filter monitor (a light which lights up on the motor) which electronically senses when the cup needs to be emptied or when the filter needs to be cleaned or replaced. The debris screen, HEPA filter and pre-motor filter and all can be rinsed off with tap water.

The only complain I had was with the the curved hose; using it with the turbo head on the curved floor of of my Mustand was a chore getting the right angle. It would be easier if the hose was str8. The Shark will come in real handy on carpeted stairs; have you tried to do stairs with an upright or the powerhead from a canister? Looks pretty silly. The shark with its turbohead ( it measures only 6" wide) is perfect for chairs, sofa's and those little jobs; because of its size, I don't think it would be practicable to vacuum a whole house; maybe more suited for an RV.

As a pet owner I'm real please with my shark and all it does and all the uses I find for it. I hope this review was usefull to you and thanks for your time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice little vacuum for the price., May 4, 2004
This review is from: Euro-Pro EP88SS Silent Super Shark Turbo Handheld Vacuum with Intelli-Sense (Kitchen)
I have an older upright without all the fancy attachements and needed something to get into the tight spots in my apartment. Instead of spending upwards of 200 bucks on a new vacuum with attachments I opted for the $40 Super Shark at Best Buy - this has turned out to be exactly what I was looking for. The power cord is long enough where it can reach most of a room without having to move it around to various outlets. The hose attachment lets you leave the main unit on the floor and use the hose freehand. If anything the filter/dust cap gets dirty and clogged up fairly quickly so you need to clean it out often so you get proper airflow - not much different then changing out the lint filter in your dryer. A nice little unit.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not So Silent... but very smooth, December 14, 2004
This review is from: Euro-Pro EP88SS Silent Super Shark Turbo Handheld Vacuum with Intelli-Sense (Kitchen)
I really have to tell you that there are just so many concept vacumms out right now. There are just some that are made with the mind of a robot, some of them that are just bulky to carry around, and there are a few sweepers that have much more power than a traditional feel. I always seem to find different vacuums that all seem the same. However, I checked out Euro-Pro and their Shark models. They really seem to do so well that it is just unpredictable. Yet, I've seen all different kinds of models including their transparent vac, but it always has to be the not so silent holders that hit the nail on the head.

Euro-Pro Silent Super Shark, is a very simple compact vacuum that is a quieter vacuum in sound, but has a lot of impact that other vacuums don't seem to have. The look is almost like a miniature canister, but the power goes much deeper and broader than classic uprights. The vacuums also is very convient to carry around, and picks up a lot of dirt, debris and other kinds of messes. The strength is amazing, but it can be a little complex at times carrying this vacuum around, while cleaning with it. The cleanup is also simple, with a strong and easy cleanable hepa filter.

All in all, the Silent Super Shark is really a very simple vacuum, at a affordable price. While many would consider a upright, because you don't have to empty it as often as this one, this one is a lot more convient to carry around. I honestly recommend this one, especially for people who can't lift anything very heavy like me.

Control: C+

Strength and Power: B+

Price: A-

Overall: B+
