Shark Roadster

The Shark Roadster vacuum cleaner is like the biggest piece of crap I've bought in a long time. I have used it like 5 times now.

It can not clean much more than a 10 X 10 room without a filter cleaning, which is a pain in the a--. Since the filter clogs soooo totally well, the vacuum brush unit will not spin due to like a lack of volume of air or whatever.

Today was the kicker, the automatic roll up cord...WON'T. After like messing with the never ending filter thingie, I tackled the cord release problem.

After no success trying to get it to release I just threw it at the floor and that fixed it (I know temper, temper). Now the stupid cord only rolls up, won't stay in locked position.

The Shark Roadster vac has been the most frustration I ever got for 99 bucks at Target. PLZ, PLZ don't waste your money. #1 if you like want a power brush head, go the extra 30 bucks or so and get one that uses a electric motor & belt system.

Bags are good, at least you don't stop and replace once or twice at each room. Typical junk, pay a lot, in a short time get little to nothing in the satisfaction feelings or whatever.

And yeah, I've had the Roadster vacuum long enough to by now lose the receipt and had it like too long to return anyway. A 99 buck life lesson.
