Euro-Pro EP88SS Silent Super Shark Turbo Handheld Vacuum with Intelli-Sense
Reach corners, cracks and crevices other vacuums can’t with the 1000-watt Euro-Pro Super Shark hand vac. Featuring more power than some full-size vacuums, the Super Shark has enough suction power to lift 150 lbs. The bagless dirt container has a 25-oz. capacity, and the true HEPA filter traps 99.97% of air impurities. Includes an extra-long deluxe hose, extension tube, deluxe brush with removable bristles, crevice tool/brush and shoulder strap.
At 1,000 watts, the Super Shark vacuum is more powerfaul than most other handheld models. It also comes with numerous configurations, for wide-ranging use in the house, car, or workshop, as well as variable suction to accommodate delicate surfaces. The vacuum has a bagless design, gathering debris in a dust cup that is fitted with a washable and reusable filter. The cup detaches from the front of the unit for simple emptying. In addition to the dust-cup filter, the vacuum comes with a pleated true HEPA filter to trap particulates as small as 0.3 microns. The vacuum body features a 1-1/2-inch circular suction opening that is large enough for most small jobs. For bigger tasks, the unit comes with a hose and 6-inch turbo brush. Additional tools–an extension tube, an upholstery brush with removable bristles, and a crevice tool with a flip-up brush–can be used with the hose or fitted onto the suction port directly. The unit also comes with a shoulder strap and a motor-protective thermostat that cuts power in case of overheating. Covered in rugged plastic, the Super Shark body measures 13 by 8 by 5-1/2 inches. No purring kitten, the vacuum does make some noise in use, and tools must be stored separately. –Emily Bedard

Euro-Pro EP88SS Silent Super Shark Turbo Handheld Vacuum with Intelli-Sense Reviews
Alas! pricey, obsolete filters
Unlike other customers, I find this EP88SS a great buster of dust in an urban studio apartment. It picks up lint and dust well, paint chips in window sills etc. The problem is, the so-called hepa-perfect, anti-allergy filter is priced at $13 and you really need to breathe in plenty of dust to keep the filter clean after each use to get a longer life out of it. And now that the PRODUCT HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED!!!!!, where does that leave all of us who bought it? Searching for filters priced at $13 and rising, plus shipping? Hopefully a disposable cloth filter alternative will be more readily available. Don’t count on it.
Great vacuum with shop vac like power
I bought this locally on sale and I must say i was impressed. Right when I opened the box and turned it on the sound coming out of the motor shows you how powerful it is.
I bought it to keep in my car and clean it without hauling out a shop-vac and be held down by cords or the shop-vac hitting the side of the car.
It cleans car carpets and seats with ease. The construction of the unit is quite good, does not feel cheap like other small hand vacuums. The cord has lots of length without needing to pull an extension cord around with you.
Although there is some cons like not having a carrying case which makes putting this back into the box after use a little bit of a pain. Also it should have came with a car adapter so you could use it anywhere anytime. I would recommend it to anyone looking for something like a boat, car, truck or motor home.
Great so far!
I shopped a long time for this handheld vacuum. I wanted something with power (a wall plug-in, that didn’t need to be charged) and something that was quiet. So far this vac delivered everything I wanted. I work in a large open office area; the vac could be run while people were working and even talking and was not disturbing. It picks things up quickly and quietly and it is powerful too. I highly recommend it. The only thing is that it does get warm. The shoulder strap is helpful because it is a little awkward, but all of the attachments it comes with are very useful. It worked well to get dust bunnies and hard to get crumbs out of keyboards, plus paper shreds, and small rocks.
Why didn’t I buy the Dirt Devil?
I bought this item and was satisfied with it for the first 100 days or so until it completely stopped working. Euro Pro support is HORRIBLE. It took them 6 weeks from the date I called them to send me a new adapter; my unit still did not work with the new adapter. Then they told me they could fix it, but would charge me shipping and handling both ways. I am just going to throw it out and buy the Dirt Devil I should have bought in the first place. I had one that I bought used and worked for years.
decent but not up to expectations
Compared to other handheld cordless vacs, it is very good.
However, the Shark’s claim of being powerful and quiet is highly exaggerated. The vac worked fine for the first few months, but the motor seemed to lose a little power and after a year of use the suction power was mediocre at best. You will need to empty the bag constantly and keep it fully charged for it to perform well.
Also the round shape of the vac is a major design flaw, the “snout” of the vac is so broad and blunt with the opening of the vacuum so small it was hard to get into corners unless you use an attachment.
The charger is also another design flaw, it is often hard to dock the vacuum in it and doesn’t fit so well.
It is also noisy, it’s not terribly loud, but it produces an annoying whiney higher pitched sound.
Generally, cordless vacs are not the greatest in terms of performance and longevity, but if you must get one and don’t have much to spend than I could recommend this vac half heartedly.
