Amazon.com Review

Though cyclonic suction is usually the domain of upright vacuums, Euro-Pro has harnessed the technology for this heavy-duty handheld Shark. Though no slim little model, the vacuum is compact and lightweight with powerful direct suction and a motorized brush roll. These features make it suitable for dry pickups on bare floors as well as deep cleaning on plush carpets. Whatever the task, the cyclonic system at the rear of the appliance spins dirt and debris to keep suction strong and to simplify filtration. An onboard stretch hose increases the vacuum's applications and includes a built-in dusting brush for delicate surfaces. Euro-Pro also equips the vacuum with a tap-clean, rinseable HEPA filter for trapping particulates and allergens to keep the atmosphere cleaner and more healthful. Reasonably comfortable in use, the vacuum includes an ergonomically designed handle and a 15-foot power cord. --Emily Bedard

1.0 out of 5 stars Worked great, then burned up., January 28, 2005

By	A. Hulsebus - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

At first, I was impressed with this little vacuum. It seemed to work as well as an upright, though extremely loud. However, it's now a month after buying it, and it no longer works.

For being marketed as a vacuum for cleaning pet hair from upholstery and stairs, this vacuum has no internal protection against said hair. When I was using it one day, it stopped picking up anything. I looked at the brush, and it was not turning, though the vacuum was on. Upon turning it off, I discovered that cat hair had built up around one of the bearings on the edge of the brush and was preventing it from moving. Not only that, but the belt had created enough heat from friction that the metal "gear" burned a hole in the front plastic, and the belt no longer has enough tension to turn the brush.

I could find no stores in my town or online that carry belts for this vacuum, and, despite being advertised as having a 3-year warranty, the company seems to have no website or contact information online.

I even tried a belt meant for a handheld Dirt Devil, but it only works for about ten seconds before coming off.

Stay away from this vacuum; spend twice as much and get something that will last.

1.0 out of 5 stars If you want a durable vacuum, you don't want the Shark, July 16, 2005

By	leokat - See all my reviews

If there were a market for disposable vacuum cleaners, this would be the perfect product. It is powerful, but not designed for longevity. Starting the day I took it out of the box, it regularly overheated after several minutes' use and switched itself off, unusable for at least an hour while it cooled. The manufacturer even mentions this in the owner's manual, as though it's a feature. The Shark consistently clogged with pet fur because the opening in the dust receptacle is too narrow, leaving the opening packed with debris while the majority of the receptacle is empty. Finally, it died completely after six disappointing months. There's a reason this is one of the cheapest hand vacuums--it's low quality, amateur engineering and won't last. If you need something more, look elsewhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars This vacuum is awesome!, November 29, 2004

By	JohnUpNorth (Fargo, ND,USA) - See all my reviews

Reading the pros and cons on other hand vacs, I was concerned that there wasn't any hand vac on the market that would do the job well. I could not find any reviews on this model - it must be newer - and was concerned by the negatives I read on other Euro-Pro machines. I decided to take a chance and try it.

Well I was pleasantly suprised. This little v1510 Euro-Pro machine kicks [...] It has very strong suction both when used on carpet, as well as using the detachable hose and crevice tools. It is right sized and not too heavy - it's very comfortable to use. Does a great job getting into corners too.

I got this because vacuuming carpeted stairs was such a chore - now it's a breeze. The v1510 picks up everything from fine dust to the dog hair my Norwegian Elkhound sheds constantly. (Pet owners this is the one for you!)

The only negative aspect I could find is that it is loud - but I can put up with some noise considering how well it performs.

Bonus: The unit comes with a three year warranty - 3years !
