Just amazing!!
Just bought the 3in1 Shark Rotator Pro & brought it home to use. It is all everyone says it is! Goes together easy - didn't even look at the instructions - has great suction, just about pulls itself along, is lightweight, picks up great on carpet or tile & even got the little pieces of thread/lint that my old Kirby wouldn't even touch. Having the cord on the right of the machine really doesn't matter as it has a little hook through which to pass the cord over to the left. Did notice the upright falls over easily when using the wand but making a quick switch to the cannister caddy took care of that. I was concerned there was no height adjustment but it seems to work well whether on my indoor carpet, bare floor, or indoor/outdoor carpet on my patio so is not a problem. I guess the only cons I can find with this vac is that the lights on the front are not real bright but even that was easy to fix - I just turned on the overhead light in the rooms I was working in. I also noticed it doesn't pick up real well next to walls but I suppose that is where the attachments come in. Finally, the dust cup could be bigger but it is very easy to empty & doesn't require getting your hands dirty! .Am very pleased with my purchase - as long as it doesn't lose suction over time, this will have been a great purchase...sure beats paying thru the nose for a Dyson!

Great Vacuum For The $
Yes as you can tell by my nickname I am a man...yes there is actually a husband who vacuums. Although my research wasn't lengthy I have no regrets in making such a hasty purchase. This vacuum out performs the Oreck and Dirt Devil we currently own. Today is day number 1 and I can tell you that I was amazed at the amount of dirt and dog hair this vacuum picked up that the other two left behind.
The vacuum does have some drawbacks but not enough for me to give this vacuum less than 5 stars. The drawbacks are just as others have pointed out, back heavy which makes it somewhat cumbersome to use the hose when not using it with the roller platform, the hose is too short and somewhat stiff but this most likely will change over time with usage, the vacuum is somewhat heavier than the other two I have but again not heavy enough for me to complain but I'm sure due to the weight this will be my wife's excuse to never vacuum again. I will also say the weight is not an issue as the vacuum pulls itself along the carpet better than any other I've used.
I see where others have complained about the attachments but I feel they were incorrect as I cleaned the furniture and fireplace with a couple of them and they performed better than expected.
All in all I feel that my decision to purchase this Shark over another Oreck or even a Dyson was a smart buy especially since I was able to save $50 using the BB&B 20% off coupon.

Great for carpet and stained concrete flooring!
Bought this vacuum after my former vacuum couldn't suction correctly anymore. I was a little timid to get this vacuum at first, but after reading numerous reviews on this website and another well recognized product review site, I took the plunge.
I have had this vacuum for a little over a month now. I love the suction strength it has!! This vacuum also seamlessly transitions from carpet to stained concrete flooring without any adjustments needed (as far as vacuum height). The off/on switch for the brush roll is nice as well. When the brush roll is turned on the vacuum has a little bit of "self propulsion" which makes pushing the vacuum easier.
All parts are easy to take off and put back together. This vacuum is light compared to others I looked at. The canister is easy to empty, as well.
As far as hair/string getting wrapped around the brush roll, it is the same as every other vacuum. Unfortunately there is no way to remove the whole brush roll device to clean it out, so you have to do the awkward scissor cutting maneuvers to get it off. It is nice, however that the bottom portion of the vacuum does come off so you don't have to have the entire vacuum sitting in your lap or on your table to do this task!
The wand is a little short to do large areas for me (I'm 5'8"), but I usually reserve the wand for small spaces or the couch. Suction strength seems unchanged when using the wand.
Also, one thing I found awesome about this vacuum is that the head of the vacuum swivels very smoothly and easily. Reminds me a lot of a ball.
So far, I am really enjoying this vacuum. I am so glad we didn't spend $500+ on a vacuum. Forbid this vacuum go out in less than 5 years like my last one, but, if it does, I don't feel as bad about replacing it since the price tag wasn't too bad (a 20% off coupon made the price even nicer!)

Very pleased so far
I've never written a review before, but I have been so pleased with my Shark 3-in-1, that I decided to. It has great suction, it's easy to maneuver with the rotating head, and I love that I can easily get under and around furniture with it. So far, it's worked great on my rugs, hardwood, and tile. With a push of a button, you can switch settings for carpet or hardwood. It was also easy to put together, and easy to use in all three variations of vacuum. There are tons of "pros", and my only "con" might be that the dust bin isn't very large. But, honestly, I've filled it up to its max, kept vacumming, and never lost suction. I almost bought a much more expensive vacuum, but so far, I'm very glad I didn't. With one of BB&B's 20% coupons, this is a great deal.
