What do you recommend I do if it is spraying water only and not picking up anything from the solution tank? The vacuum is fine and the red thing is spinning when I press the throttle

Thank you for the great information. I have that roll er problem also that was intermittent but now it's not working at all. I do like the shark vacuum cleaner for its convenient accessories. Which one would you recommend to replace it? That is pretty comparable to it. And if problems occur repair components are available.

Thanks much for the great video. Things went mostly okay for me. I managed to bust the clutch shrowd. There are two screws on the back side. One goes into the shrowd and the other goes into something else. I got the wrong one. Also, you should wear protective eye gear! When I was using my big screw driver to stretch that belt, it jumped on me and I stuck myself in the face. 🥲

Nothing is built to last any more my mum had a hoover jr for 15 years and nit a days problem all these new hoover a EXPENSIVE CRAP.

Just took my shark to be repaired, told me the same. Stated German and US made you can find parts.

Can you compare to Riccar’s top of the line canister?

He did not screw in the other side of the hose. The hose would fit without shortening if it was installed properly.

what is the best vacuum cleaner that doesn't make noise?

Great video fix my vacuum. Thank you

What’s your recommendation for cheapest sebo for my shag?

Thank you so much! Ordering the replacement items now from you to fix mine.

I regretfully vacuumed up diatomaceous earth with my Shark AZ1501 apex lift away and it still works but not as well. I cleaned out the filters and what I could without opening it up. Should I bother taking it apart or having it done? It is only a year old & was in great condition prior to me doing this. I thought maybe I could blow off any powder inside ? Would appreciate any advice. And no I will never do that again as I have now learned that was a big NO NO 😜

Where can I take it to get it fixed

Thanks for talking about this. We can legislate minimum, in the hopes to limit how wasteful companies are.

After several hours of trying to do what should have been simple, I agree. I won't be buying another shark vacuum. Suggestions?

Mine did not have a security bit screw. All were Phillips 🤷🏼‍♀️ and mine had 14 screws. Same exact vacuum 🤔

In the first comparison with the turbo heads, the Miele never went completely over the white rice, like the SEBO did. The Miele was stopped before being pushed over the top of the white grains.

I'm a professional cleaner I've either owned or used every vac under the sun. I now own three Sebos; X7, 300 Mechanical, and the Felix. I love them all. SEBO is awesome to work with in that rare event something goes wrong. I will never own anything else.

Dyson vaccum is worth every penny in my opinion. I had a V10 for 3 years, so ridiculously easy to use, to empty, to clean. I regret i didnt buy it sonner

Thank you! I’ve been spinning my wheels trying to fix my shark vacuums. I’ll never buy shark again.

Doesn’t the federal government mandate that obsolescent should be illegal?

Recently bought a sebo felix premium from a dealer. It was a floor model so I got $50 off and a box of bags thrown in. I intend to use the vacuum for my house cleaning business but I’ve never spent so much on a vacuum and am feeling unsure if it was a sound purchase. Started my business in March with a shark just to get going, but I know I want a solid machine, bagged, and something that can be maintenance. The sebo invest feels right but I think I’m more concerned with it being a floor model and the cost point of $750. Any advice? Did I get a good deal and I’m just being silly lol?

I have bought one for our house and one for our church. I will NEVER buy another one

Amazon has pretty much every part you normally replace on a vacuum, Shark vacuums included. Torx bit sets can be had for about $10. My Shark requires a #10 and #20 bit. I need to replace the hose that goes from the base into the handle, Amazon $10. I'm debating if it's worth the time to repair a 5 year old vacuum that has been used hard or replace it? I'll probably repair it and have a solid backup.

I must be lucky. I bought a Bissell Cleanview II Bagless in in like 2006 and it's still going. Been looking at Miele and sebo for the day my vacuum dies.

Hey thanks Josh.

Replacing a few bags and a couple filters every year on a Miele vacuum is going to be much better than buying a new shark vacuum every 1 to 2 years. Throwing away 12 vacuum cleaner bags and 3 hepa filters is a lot less wasteful than an entire vacuum.

I bought a plug-in shark stick vac during the pandemic when batteries weren't available for my Dyson stick. Used it a few times, now got the Dyson battery so the shark sits in the closet. Took a look at it in response to this video, and I'll be damned, the beater bar is not replaceable without removing security head screws and (apparently) taking apart the snap-together housing. Never seen a vacuum where the belt and beater bar are not easily replaceable with simple snap in/out parts or at worse cases a few screws. My shark robot vacuum is not like that, all the filter and brushes and everything are very easy to remove and replace.

Those are called OETIKER clips, and they are largely used for BEVERAGE systems. Possible Correction: Where you point and state "this is one of the pumps that has the diode inside the pump, that may be a klixon sensor it is a thermal fuse that will open if the pump gets too hot.

Just bought new revolutionary pet pro 2 and it runs but doesn't spray at either place,could someone please help???

Great video showing how to change the power switch on my DC14. Saved me a lot of money.

Would love more decent domestic products. I buy American made before chinese of course. Germany, Japan usually has great products also.

I'm here because I can't figure out how to get the bottom hose released to get a stray item out. Time for another vacuum, I guess and it WON'T be another Shark! Thank you for this.

Thank you ❤. I love your video. Very straightforward. ❤

It took me almost 2 hours to replace my power cord today, and I came close to breaking it several times while trying to figure out how to take it apart. Fortunately, I do have the required Philips heads anf Torx drivers. No more Sharks for us.

Thanks again Aiden! Great video. The replacement pump from Vacuums R Us works great. You weren’t kidding about the factory clamps being hard to get to and remove.

Great video I'm going back to eureka vacuums

What do you recommend for a good vacuum?

Thank you for taking the time to teach us how to replace the power switch in a Dyson vacuum. Honestly, if it wasn’t for your video, I would have been forced to take my Dyson to a vacuum shop. You saved me about one hundred dollars and a lot of time. By the way, I have a Dyson DC27 and your instructions helped me to quickly fix the switch. Again, thank you for taking the time to do this video!!! 😊

What is the glue u used and were can i get it?

Working on 1 now, that's how I found your video 😢. Thanks for exposing this company, and what they're doing. I got lucky and picked mine up in a garage sale for 10 bucks, I mean I can fix anything, or so I thought. I feel bad for the others though who are having the economy sucked out of them with this scam.

In your opinion what is the best bagless upright

Hey I have an Elna 3003. Do you know what year it came out? And what's your telephone number ;)

I have a cleaning business. I don’t mind buying a new shark once a year. I bought riccar vacuums for years and I got sick of the noise and weight. I wish the upright riccar vacuum could convert to a canister like the shark lift away does so I wouldn’t always need 2 vacuums. I hate regular canisters for vacuuming hard wood floors. I like having easy tools for edging but my riccar super light doesn’t do that. The heavier riccar needs expensive filters changes constantly or it smells horrible. I am irritated that I can’t get the vacuum head apart to clean it out because it’s just stupid.

Yas ty so much

Thank you for making a GR8 ECO point to save our 🌎. Everything is throw away after 1 year & causing too much E-Waste!! So many dead Satellites are just floating around in space. Cost too much to real’em in & then dispose properly.

Yes it upsets me that the first sweeper I bought had a lifetime warranty but they can't find me in the system .I bought another small one can't take it apart to clean it nor replace belt as you say . doesn't even have lights on it which I didn't realize I'm and older lady so my sight not the best .Well this will be the last one I never buy I'm done with this company .what a trip off .

It was going so well! I snapped the ear off (4:36) when trying to knock off the orange knob (6:49). Well, I’m going vacuum shopping. 🥳 Thanks for the video ❤

How to remove the plastic tank float cover. On a Hoover Carpet Cleaner?

Hi, great video, I have a very similar machine, but it doesn’t take the soap, other than that if works fine. Shall I strip it down to see if there is a clog in the soap line? Cheers,
