ive been using this shark upright vacuum for over a year heres my long...

The Shark Stratos Upright is an excellent cleaner – in my tests, it had no trouble sucking up fine or chunky particles, no matter the floor type. You can remove the dustbin section and hold it in your hand, while you use a cleaner head on the end of a wand/flexible hose, and in this mode it's easy to clean in the tightest of corners. The settings are basic, and it's not the most advanced Shark Upright, but in terms of cleaning clout, it's hard to fault. £249.99 at Downtown Stores(Blue) £299.99 at Amazon(Gold) £349 at very.co.uk £349 at Appliances Direct
