Description of Shark CV242 Professional Stainless Steel Canister Vac

The Shark Professional Stainless Steel Canister Vac combines stunning style with function in a HEPA bagged vacuum that is perfect for hard floors or carpeting.
If it's important to have a vacuum cleaner that is just as styling as your apartment, this brushed stainless-steel and black canister vacuum is a great candidate. The CV242's compact, rounded profile makes it look like the Volkswagen Beetle of vacuum cleaners and its light weight makes it easy to tote from room to room for thorough cleaning. This versatile vacuum has 1,200 watts of power and a manual suction control that can be set for heavy-duty action for carpets or gentler suction for drapes. The flexible hose stretches right into corners and the floor brush has six soft, rubber wheels that help it to glide from hard woods to carpeted floors without any adjustments. A chrome telescopic tube extends the length of the hose for overhead cleaning of cobwebs from the ceiling or dust from the top of a tall dresser. A dusting brush tackles those jobs while an upholstery brush takes dust and pet hair off of drapes and furniture and a crevice tool cleans along the edge of the flooring. This vacuum uses disposable true HEPA bags to trap 99.97 percent of dirt and impurities as small as .03 microns in size, leaving indoor air fresher than it was before vacuuming. An indicator on the canister's top illuminates when a new bag is needed. Another small convenience is the foot-operated buttons for the power and the retractable cord to prevent constantly having to bend over. This vacuum cleaner is covered by a one-year limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Tools and Hardware Reviews of Shark CV242 Professional Stainless Steel Canister Vac

Customer Review: This Thing is Wonderful!
Summary: 5 Stars

I saw this vacuum at Bed, Bath and Beyond in Manhattan and was attracted to the stainless steel and compact design. The vacuum cleaner I had was an upright, extremely loud and not effective for my studio apartment. I did some research on the Shark and found that it had just been released at the end of August 2005 so there were no reviews for it.

I opted to listen to my intuition and plugged it in at the Bed, Bath and Beyond to give it a whirl. It wasn't very loud and had great suction. Of course I was in a store which is considerably larger than my studio apartment. After perusing through the box I found that it wasn't bagless which is disappointing to an environmental freak like myself. The HEPA bags that it uses, while great at reducing allergens, are really rather tiny. I have three cats and a large Lab; all of which shed like mad.

I have since used this vacuum 4 times doing thorough cleanings of the apartment. The HEPA bag is not even half full, it's much more quiet than the one I had before and the suction is so amazing, I nicknamed it "George" - because it SUCKS! :)
