One of the best purchases I have ever made, November 26, 2007
Length:: 1:31 Mins
The Euroshark sweeper is one of the best items I have ever bought. As the video shows, the sweeper is very versatile and useful. It works in either carpet or tiles, although I think it works best on carpets.
What it DOES pick up:
I have been able to pick up glass, nals, screws, paper, hair, dust, chocolate mix and many more things. This sweeper does pick up all of these things. I once broke a wine glass in the my carpet and the sweeper was able to pick up most of the pieces of glass. It allows me to do a quick sweep of the place to try to keep things neat.
What it does not pick up:
Crumpled up paper (as in the video), but it does pick up bits of paper.
Battery:
The battery lasts a surprising long time. Days actually. I charge my sweeper every 2 weeks or so (depending on use; I use it about 2-3 times a week and live in an apartment). I am not sure how long it actually takes to charge but I believe this is specified in the instructions.
With this sweeper.
Emptying the sweeper:
It is really easy to empty the sweeper. You just remove the compartment and dump it in the trash. I do have to say that it is annoying to clean the bristles of the sweeper. Hair strands get tangled in the bristles and it is hard to get them off. What I usually do is to use a pair of scissors to cut them up and then clean the bristles.
Bottom line:
This is a great investment and will make cleaning better, quicker and easier. I hope the video is better and that the quality is ok.
Update: 9/11/2008:
Ok, so the sweeper rebelled on me. It got clogged, started making strange noises and would spit out all it had cleaned. So, thinking I am a repair genious, I took it apart. What an ordeal! Take this advice I give you: Do Not Take It Apart! After I cleaned it, I could not put it back together. After a day of trying, I put it back together...in some form. The noises and reduced performance remained. But, somehow, the sweeper has been working very well again. It does not have the same strength, but after I dismantled it I cannot expect much. So, I still stand by my 5 star rating. I love this thing.
