second one I bought....
I bought one for my sister (she is a cleaning FREAK) as a house warming gift when she moved close to me from out of state. She took it home, vacuumed the entire house with her other vacuum, then a second time with this NEW one.... she (being the clean freak that she is) was SO IMPRESSED with the extra dirt the Shark ot out of her carpets that she still hasnt stopped ranting and raving about it... Because she was so happy with it, I had to get myself one, too... I did the same "test" at my house.... but my other vacuum was brand new, only used a couple times before.... the results were MIND BLOWING...... the Shark got out more dirt the other vacuum did. I couldnt believe that the shark, on a SECOND vacuum, got more... MIND BLOWN!!! Cant say enough good about this product..... GET IT, GET IT, GET IT!!! if you are on the fence about it..... JUMP!!!
