My experience using it has been consistent with the features explained in the TV ads. I'm very glad to be picking up dust in my dusty home rather than blowing around lots of it. I've made vacuuming my morning exercise, since I need less dust at home and more physical exercise. It's a bit awkward to handle in some instances, low capacity from my perspective (dusty house) and seems like it might be a bit delicate. I imagine that Shark will be coming up with a new model and or accessories, building on the neat qualities of this product, making a subsequent model easier to handle and providing greater capacity. If it actually is delicate, I'd think a future model would correct for that.
