“This little vacuum cleans better than my heavy upright”

Muscling a heavy vacuum cleaner around the house can turn a day of chores into an even more dreadful affair. Stick vacuum cleaners are slimmer, sleeker, and much easier to maneuver.

Weighing in at just under 8 pounds, the Shark Rocket Ultra-Light Stick Vacuum Cleaner is aptly named for its design and powerful motor. More than 4,000 Amazon shoppers purchased it this month alone and, right now, it’s $120 off.

The stick vacuum has two modes to clean both carpets and bare floors, including hardwood, stone, tile, and more. Its swiveling head maneuvers around furniture and corners and can even slide flat to clean underneath surfaces.

The device converts into a handheld vacuum, so sofa cushions, car seats, staircases, and other surfaces can get a refresh, too. You can also use the included crevice tool, upholstery tool, and microfiber anti-allergen attachments for more precise cleaning on specific messes.

When the dust cup is full of grime, simply pop it off the vacuum and empty it directly into the trash using the quick-release button. The vacuum’s compact design is easy to store freestanding, in a closet, or on a wall mount. The handheld portion of the machine can also be detached and stored at the base of the vacuum cleaner, for added convenience.

With all of its useful features, it’s no wonder the Shark vacuum has earned more than 13,200 perfect ratings at Amazon. “This little vacuum cleans better than my heavy upright,” one reviewer wrote. “As I get older, I find a heavy upright difficult to push. This unit cleans just as well, in half the time.” Another user called it “versatile, powerful, [and] lightweight” in their review, noting that “it vacuums like a champ.”

A final shopper shared, “I ran it over our floors and rugs and filled the [dust] cup… I ran it a second time and filled the cup again. I was impressed (and grossed out!) by how much this little vacuum pulled out of my carpets.”

Say goodbye to clunky, hard-to-maneuver vacuums and snap up the Shark Rocket Ultra-Light Stick Vacuum Cleaner while it’s nearly half-off at Amazon.
