Verified ReviewerAwful Warranty
I have had 2 Shark Rotators. They are great until they break.
First one stopped working and because warranty was for 5 years. It was 4 years and 7 months and they wanted me to pay shipping there and back to fix it $112. Then second one I bought has 7 year warranty only 3 years in now is discontinued so they want me to purchase the whole bottom of the vacuum to replace the floor hose as it is of course not cover at $130 so the vacuum is now worthless and so is the warranty. No offer to replace the vacuum at all because it still turns on!!!
Seriously??? I will never buy another as the warranty they say covers everything covers nothing unless the motor goes out!!
- Works great for 2 years
- Cover nothing so warranty is useless
Preferred solution: Full refund

Verified ReviewerShark 2 in 1 robot replaced 4 times still can’t find one that runs problem free
Unit worked good for about a month then started to pick up less and less. Called customer service and they sent me a new unit that could not register because their system wouldnt recognize the model number.
Finally got customer service to tell me they sent me a refurbished unit. That lasted about a month before that stopped picking up. They sent me another unit just the replacement brain not a complete unit. And in the time frame of 4 weeks Ive had to replace this with 3 more times.
Now they are telling me the refund period has expired. For years we used the Roomba, never had any issues.
Shark was claimed to be a better stronger unit, its not even close.Roomba was a far better product that was less expensive and more reliable. Leave me on hold waiting for a supervisor.
- Stalling with cheaper replacements
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Steady away from shark robot Roomba much better

Verified ReviewerJunk carpet shampooer
I have bought 2 shark products. I purchased a shark hydro vac for my hard wood floors and I also purchased a shark carpet shampooer.
I was so excited to have shark products in my household when i was purchasing them. Well i no longer share thag excitement. Shark products are conplete junk and i will never purchase from you guys ever again. Both the hydro vac and shampoper have broke with a couple months of purchasing them.
The hydrovac turns on and shuts right back off and the shampooer has completely stopped sucking up. I was religious on cleaning and keeping all the parts nice and clean after each use and still all theae problems happened, to not onw BUT TWO of your products. Its a COMPLETE joke.
I wasted HUNDREDS of dollars on your products , just to have them completely break and be unuseable within months. Its really sad i could have bought my son something nice with the money i used on your **** products.
- Each machine only lasted a couple months
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Don't waste your money on shark products

Verified ReviewerRobot not working properly
Just an overall weird experience. First off I called 4 different shark customer service numbers.
Then finally got an answer. Then they FaceTimed with me to see the issue and couldnt resolve it. They are sending me the part needed to fix the problem but if Im being honest the rep didnt explain to me what the problem even was. Also I thought it was weird that they wanted me to pay for shipping of the part theyre sending to me reason I say this is because I just bought this vacuum and have used it a handful of times so its like new and there really shouldnt be a problem with it since its so new in my opinion.
But then she told me they will waive the fee as a one time courtesy which again just weird like if I was an unethical person I could just take the vacuum back to the store and act like nothing was wrong but I didnt.
I feel like if its so new the company should be responsible for their products especially if theres a possibility it was a fluke and just a random machine that didnt work for no particular reason. In all that we do I feel like nothing is always perfect and it could be 1 out of the millions that could be messed up and thats fine but again being that it was just bought I feel like it shouldnt have been such a hassle to get the issue resolved and that is if she even sent the part because I never received the emails she sent with the info about the replacement part.
- Getting in touch with customer service was a hassle
Preferred solution: A new product I just think it’s stupid for me to have a part sent for me to take all working parts off old machine to new machine. It’s a cheap look for a successful business.
User's recommendation: Sharks older products I think are better than newer ones at least from the items I’ve owned in my personal experience

Verified ReviewerForeign Customer Service makes the Shark Robot purchase not worth it
whenever I have mustered up the long arduous process to call in to finally get a hold of someone (always another country with very poor english) I never get a solution. Just the same reset start over bla bla with no resolution. It obvious its a software bug but they...
Last year I made a request, likely others did more than likely, to have the ability to present the suction level during scheduled runs.
As it was it would always run at medium suction.
Which does nothing if you have a rug or dogs and really need that full suction power to make this robotic vacuum endeavor viable.
After countless calls and emails and chats you would not believe how many; still no one can get it to do just that. Even though they added a SAVE check box for suction level memory in the Settings. You hear the robot while its running if you are lucky to be home during one of the scheduled runs and it certainly is showing the highest suction in their software. Yet if you listen close you know it is certainly not running at the highest suction.
In other words it is tricking you visually. As soon as you move the suction to medium from highest level then back to highest suction again, you hear a much higher audible level. There you go. NOW ITS IS AT FULL SUCTION POWER.
Fix your software already! So in short, unless you are lucky enough to be there every time to do it manually. Which obviously defeats the automated scheduling aspect, this suction option does not work. There is much more headache like getting a call back at your specific time zone.
Even after sharing exactly the time and difference and preferred times I can only get calls, I would see missed calls at 4, 5, 6a in the morning. I'm sleeping phone is asleep.
I'm floored the quality of their foreign service. Brings jobs back to America Shark when you talk to that continent!
- Hardware compared to others i tested 2 compeitors is better
- Foreign customer service is subpar
Preferred solution: if its hardware problem replace it. If its software fix it already and admit its an issue. verses keep asking for constant calls doing the same thing; reset, delete, start over and so on
User's recommendation: Skip Shark for Robot vacuums until they get 100% American Customer Service
