Brilliant non corded vacuum. Better at picking up cat hairs than my corded Shark Pet. Lightweight and as I have long hair no hair wrapping around brush. What isn’t so special is the recharging base, quite big and trying to find a space out of the way for it. Overall I would say I am extremely happy with my purchase.
This little shark is going to be ideal for our holiday home, it is powerful, lightweight and comes with many attachments.
I selected the item with the second battery included because a battery can fail quite quickly ad I do not want to get caught out halfway through hoovering.
The dust compartment is small, but I find that I can usually vaccuum the whole flat without emptying the compartment more than once (and I have two dogs). My only complaint is that the latch on the dust compartment is sometimes hard to close. I hope Shark will look into this, because I think dust sometimes blocks the mechanism.
I think this vaccuum is more or less ideal for people who live in small properties.
I found it a little heavy after a while doing the stairs.
My daughter recommended the shark as she had bought one recently.
This vacuum is more powerful than its size would suggest, and although the dust collector has to be emptied frequently, it’s worth it as the suction is tremendous. I would recommend this vacuum to everyone. Brilliant.
Great to use. Very good for quick jobs to keep the place clean. One observation is that the dirt/dust collector is very small so needs to be emptied frequently, which is not a bad habit to get into. Run time is fine and moves easily from carpet to hard floors.
Great product as lightweight but good suction power- needs to be emptied more often as small dust collection pod.
Find the hoover difficult to empty as it doesn’t close up very well.
As I said has got two batteries one oncgarge while other in use.
hat it picks up hair and the power it has its grate . The only thing i can say you have to empty it all the time it could be a lot bigger Thanks very happy with i
Really pleased it’s light weight easy to use and great suction my rugs look like new
Great as I have hand problems
Easy to empty
Best purchase in a long time
im 76 and i find it light and easy to use and really to on the stairs
I am delighted with this vacuum cleaner which was a gift. I have had it two months now. It is lovely to use. Light-weight. Powerful enough. Not too noisy. It kind of “steers” by twisting the handle a bit as you push it around so very easy to steer round furniture. A real joy to use. Only a very small dust container in the handle but it’s adequate and you can see easily when it is full. Two batteries means you never run out of juice. Frankly I’ve not needed the second one yet! The “brush” is a soft plastic strip rather than a brush like a normal vacuum cleaner but it works perfectly although struggles with long fluffy things like my bath mat. Works everywhere else though. Recommended.
Thoughtful design in every detail and works beautifully. Price is amazing compared to newer competitor handhelds.
Product design team should be applauded.
1) Comes with a stand so docking is really tidy
2) Looks good and super compact we keep ours proudly in the kitchen
3) Small dust bucket that is easy to empty – this is game changer – means we change habits to conveniently empty after each hoover with no mess vs putting off emptying a large bucket everywhere and pulling out trapped mess
4) Power management. Charges on stand, includes spare battery that charges on same stand, power monitor so you can see battery level.
5) Touch button controls where you fingers are not hidden away
6) Head glides on the floor and picks up from hard floor and delicate rugs gently
This is almost the perfect compact vacuum. Only negative is it comes with 3 attachments h but the stand only has a holder for one. So the others don’t dock away nicely.
Had the vacuum for a few days so real test will be durability. Our Dyson lasted 10years
Fantastic purchase especially given the price.
Good product, lightweight. But on the bundles section there is an option to buy a car detail kit, this kit is not compatible with this vacuum cleaner. BE AWARE.
It can still say “light Weight” comparing with others Vacuum Cleaner fitting to family’s use.
I didn’t dislike anything .I’m thrilled to bits with my shark
If I could wish for more it would only be a wider brush head because I don’t like using the motor heads on the hard floors.
Edit 8/2/2023. I haven’t changed my opinion of this machine in the last eight months, but today when I operated the release for the dust bin the plastic spring loaded hinge exploded. Disappointing.
Very lightweight I can hoover my whole house in no time it’s only a 2 bed bungalow. Even does the hard bristle doormat. Quite pleased with it.
Feels heavier and sturdier than the Dyson V7 I had before. A bit less ergonomic and harder to use as a result, but also feels more powerful. Normal mode is comparable to max mode on the V7. Makes the Dyson feel like a toy in comparison! I’d say get the V7 for ease of use, and the Wandvac for the performance of a larger vacuum in a miniature size.
Cons: no light on the main unit, surprised by that. It’s rather heavier than expected and can get really hot while in use and/or charging. The charging base holds ONE accessory and not all three. Not sure why it was built like that, but and as many are saying, it doesn’t stand upright, that’s due to the fact that it’s top heavy.
I’d give it a 4.5 star rating, definitely not a 5, it’s a good tool for a 2-bedroom flat, wouldn’t have it as a main vacuum for a larger flat or house.
Cheers.
Bought for elderly relative. Ideal as light and easy to use
Got for my daughter as I have one luv i
No downside at all shark credited the perfect vacuum cleaner plenty power with no loss of suction very easy to move about the house & light as well and always on charge just pick it up & clean. Makes hoovering fun again instead of a chore
The only thing I don’t like is the small capacity dust collector, apart from that its great for pet hairs and general small tasks and of course the Car.
Like this power of the device but not that impressed with the size of the dust compartment it’s very small so needs constant emptying
Good value still haven’t sorted out whether you have to have both batteries charging at same time and nothing in instructions bout white light flashing near base of hoover ?
I can honestly say this is without fail the best vacuum I’ve purchased yet! Had an Amazon canister vacuum previously that cost under 50 and was a fabulous buy with great suction on all floors despite not having a super filter and bulky to store and pull around but would still recommend and was worth every penny. previous to that I had a dyson – a pointless 350.00 that never seemed to work properly!
This product beats all hands down, is super light with brilliant attachments, a spare battery and a charging stand! I’ve never run out of battery whilst using and it’s super easy to empty! You won’t be disappointed.
The vacuum is better than I expected it would be on picking up dog hairs and other debris on the carpets, rugs and wooden floors.
I am writing this review because I have read some poor reviews of this item and was pleasantly surprised by the performance.
The vacuum is easy to take to pieces and the hand held is great for the car.
So far, so pleased. Thank you.
Okay, so if you are looking for something for pet hair, this isn’t the hoover for you, invest a little more for a duo clean shark. If you only want something to run quickly over the floor or pick up after kids spills then this is perfect for you. I broke my duo clean- well kids did sitting on it folded up, but I only used it on upstairs carpets as all downstairs laminated. This hoover is perfect for me as I don’t have pets and literally just run it over the floors before mopping and it’s lightweight to. Few little design faults like the empty button for bag right under power button but soon get used to you after you’ve made a mess a few times ha ha! It’s fab that the top bit comes off to use as hand held bit, it is more powerful when you are just using this bit instead of the full hoover bit. Charging plate is brilliant, just sits in there out the way until ready to use.
Good vac second one i have best one i have bought. Have one for the car and one for the home i would recommend this to anyone and really good price.
does a good job although not as powerful as my previous vacuum
Having owned an AEG cordless until the battery on that gave up the ghost, I have to say that I’m finding this Shark WandVac most impressive in comparison. It has a charge stand so that it too can stand independently without fear of it falling over, for a start. In use it seems efficient too, with the “boost” button providing a handy … er, boost when it is needed.
The Pet version comes with a large floor motorised head that works well, plus a handy smaller motorised head which fits onto the handheld part too, and that is great for upholstery. Together with the crevice tool and the “multi-surface tool” there’s everything that I am going to need for this vac. Okay so the dust collection bin IS small – but I’ve not found that to be a problem, emptying it (which is very easy BTW) after every time I use it. Neither has the short run-time been problematic because as I have said, this FOR ME is used for in-between regular cleaning. In fact so far I haven’t been near running out of charge. I bought the 2-battery version which, if you want longer than 15 minutes, will give you more time and it’s really easy to swap batteries too.
The instructions are clear and it seems very straightforward to care for those parts which need maintenance, and the Shark website is easy to use for registering the guarantee – which it says upon registering is two years for batteries and 5 years for the machine.
If it does indeed last that long I will be very happy, because so far it is absolutely perfect for what I want it to do.
I wish I’d bought one years ago.
Great suction and lightweight for my old bones to keep me independent in my own home. Love i
It’s great there are different attachments and it’s quite long to reach the cobwebs high on the ceiling, being cordless is just so much easier. It’s surprising how much it can pick up in what I thought was a small dust chamber… just be careful to press the right button when changing attachments as the first time round I emptied the contents back onto myself.
I love this little vacuum for cleaning small things in the house, however not so much in the car. The suction, even with the boost just doesn’t really clean the carpets in the car or the boot lining as much as it should and this is one of the reasons I chose this vacuum. I’ll just stick to using it indoors.
Perfect for a quick clean. No painful cable and dragging. It’s the iPhone for a vacuum cleane
So easy to use every day.
I have 6cats and 3 dogs.it’s wonderful.
Only slight draw back is the small capacity for rubbish.Just have to remember to empty it frequently!
Recommend this product easy to use cleans excellent well worth money excellent results
We had heard really good thing about Shark cordless vacuums before getting one, and haven’t been disappointed. It’s light, so especially good for using on stairs; given its small size and lack of weight, it’s also surprisingly powerful and a full charge is more then enough to go round our entire house. We are very pleased with it.
The thing that most attracted to me having this particular vac, other than the reputable Shark brand, was the anti hair-wrap technology given my wife’s propensity to leave her hair around the house.
The vac is lightweight, which is key for the cordless ones in my opinion otherwise the stairs are an exhausting nightmare. Suffice to say with this vac, they are fine. The Shark is quick to charge, easy to port and store, and a really aesthetic colour in the rose gold.
The limitation of the wattage power of vacs has affected the technology behind suction for some brands but I find this works perfectly well. The anti-hair part works as described which is a boon. The reservoir for dust/debris is small and needs frequent emptying, but that is not uncommon with this form and format of vac so I’m not going to mark it down.
All in all I feel this is an aesthetic, ergonomic, and effective piece of home technology supported by the weight of the quality of the Shark brand.
Really great design… Dust capacity not large and have to empty a lot… But this is a plus as it makes all the dirt and dust very compact so filter doesn’t get so blocked and dirty. Really impressed.
like the small part for dust and dirt and easy to empty everytime used.
be better if attachments were attached to home charging plate all in one place.
Good suction and so easy to grab. Love that I can do the entire floor properly without bending over with it like a regular hoover and also quickly make it into a nozzle hand held too.. I use it every day. Battery lasts ages and it’s very easy to empty
Love the swivel head, ease of travel, simple to separate wand. Constantly available extra battery, sufficient for my bungalow – excellent WandVac. Very easy to empty. Might have to buy second filter only drawback is drying it out takes a while.
We have been using a Hetty Vacuum cleaner for years, my Daughter recommended this Shark, so bought one for the wife. She now sings Baby Shark when she uses it…lol
I can’t say how great this hoover is,
We hoovered with the Hetty and then the Shark & the Shark picked up even more, amazing appliance & would recommend to anyone!
I have had to wait and really see that this truly give me my desired performance before I write anything on it.
But based on my personal experience, I have come to say the trial of this device will convince you that it is not waste of money but a brilliant tools for every household.
The design is stylish and appealing. Operationally this is awesome tools and I am so pleased with it. The battery life is exellelent as it stays longer enough just as expected as you have a are battery which means that while one in use, the other one is in charge, that means you Will never run out of battery.
The rate of picking is absolutely awesome and I am so pleased with it.
Above all, I will say this amazing tools for all household use.
I like this vacuum cleaner, its very compact and doesn’t take to much space also lightweight and easy to carry up and down the stairs .the power suction is great on both surfaces carpet/rug , wooden floor, tiles. I also like the different heads accessories that come with for different purposes around the house easy to change the heads, simple to use , the inly thing is that the battery life is not that long is not enough for one battery to finish the entire house but id charging pretty quick so this is good ,easy to clean the vacuum cleaner after. definitely recommend
This vacuum is perfect. I wouldn’t expect anything less from Shark, to be honest. First off, two batteries are included, so there’s no need to worry about not having enough battery to vacuum the house. This was probably one of my worries about switching to a battery-powered vacuum. Another great thing is that the head will not get tangles in hairs, so it’s perfect for homes with pets. It comes with a stand to keep the vacuum on when not in use, and while it’s charging, which is very nice; also acts as a display for your fancy vacuum. The vacuum also has different modes, and you detach the long part, to make it more handheld in a sense. It allows you to get to more restricted areas of the house, without needing to awkwardly use it. It’s also super easy to empty. Very powerful yet portable and lightweight vacuum!
First impressions of this were great, it comes in a big branded box and looks really impressive. I must admit I’ve been wanting something like this from Shark ever since I started following Mrs Hinch and seeing her clean around her home with her handheld one. This one seems to be a better version of that in my opinion. It has the handheld element that you can easily use around the house but it can also be clipped onto the main part to create a proper stick vacuum. Both ways of using it work brilliantly, I was shocked at how well the stick hoovered our upstairs carpet which is usually a nightmare to clean. I also love how it’s mains powered so you just charge it on the included base and it’s always ready to use.
Overall I’ve been really pleased with this and I’d definitely recommend it. 5 out of 5 stars from me!
Honestly this hand held vacuum is so great for quick vacuum and is powerful with good enough battery life. One of the competitors are extortionate with similar vacs and tbh the power is very similar and shark seems to be dominating these days well done to shark! Defo recommended
Perfect for my mum’s flat with hard floors and a rug. She had a very messy puppy and it clears the rug and floors in minutes. So easy to use and empty. Very powerful with a useful boost suction. Highly recommend. Best Buy for ages!
It has excellent design, so easy to use and manoeuvre around the house. Very decent suction and picks up most of the dirt, dust and dog hairs effortlessly.
Very, very impressed with the suction. In our house we have a child and two dogs, carpet and laminate flooring, the anti-hair wrap even handles my partner’s very long hair with no issues at all. Hair does not get trapped in it.
Lightweight, easy to carry up a flight of stairs. Good battery life for cleaning my 3 bed house from top to bottom. Easy to empty and clean and folds down for storage neatly.
When detached the handheld part works really well with the atacments to get to the higher hard to reach places. The way all the parts unclip is so clever, and recharging is easy-peasy. It is ideal and cleans exceptionally well. Did not realise just how poor my previous vacuum cleaner was.
Only gripe is that the capacity is bit small and when emptying you need to take out the dirt and dust with your hands as it gets stuck otherwise.
Overall A massive thumbs up to Shark for this brilliant gadget!
This little vacuum has some serious suction power for its size. It’s perfect for hard surfaces and does a pretty good job on carpets but does struggle on thicker carpets. I have a rug that the brushes stop working on every time, it’s not a particularly thick rug either. So I’m not sure why it struggles on it. There’s two brush bars on this little unit and the anti-tangle feature works brilliantly. I have a larger shark vacuum that I use for all the main jobs, but as a daily quick vacuum it’s perfect. It’s also great for stairs and I give it to my 10 year old when he wants to help around the house and he has no issues with it. It’s super easy to empty out when needed but as my larger one has a button you push down I sometimes forget that this is the button to empty it on this one and end up with dust all over the floor.
You get loads of accessories with this as you do with other shark hoovers and the charging unit is well built and holds the vacuum perfectly.
Overall I’m very impressed with this little vacuum, and when I get a moment I’ll do a video review as well.
Absolutely love this hoover it does everything so effortlessly so light weight and great suction. Would highly recommend thus hoover. I love i
Overall am super pleased with this and glad I gave it a try. Have had a Shark standard upright previously which was amazing all round and brilliant for the dog hair especially but wasn’t sure this cordless one would be as good, but actually it’s really impressive with great suction and gets up the dog hair very easily and effectively. It’s pretty lightweight too so much easier than a larger standard upright and is really easy to glide around quickly. Which is the only point that I’d very slightly crisize in terms of run time, but to offset you get two batteries which is great as you keep the other on the charger and just switch them over when needed, so even the runtime isn;t actually an issue. Great value for a decent upright like this from Shark too so would definitely recommend.
The vacuum is lightweight and practical to use and both the vacuum and the charging dock doesn’t occupy much area.
The charging dock is very easy and quick to install and it does not need any drilling, which is a big plus for renters that are usually not allowed to drill into walls and floors.
It comes with two batteries, one stays on the vacuum itself and is charged while the vacuum is stored while the other remains on a dedicated charger, and ready to use, in the dock. Unfortunately, I cannot comment on the battery usage time, as I use the vacuum for small and quick jobs and so far I’ve never ran out of battery. The vacuum has a LED sign that will show how much battery is still remaining.
The vacuum does a really good job with crumbles, dust and hairs. Also great to clean the inside of a car and stairs. It’s not great with long hair carpets/rugs as the head of the vacuum gets tangled in the long/shaggy hair of the carpet/rug.
It has a booster mode very easy to use, just by pressing a button in the back of the handle, and is quite strong.
All the parts of the vacuum are easy to disconnect and switch between accessories. The Crevice Tool has a little place to be hold in the dock, which I find quite handy.
The dust cup is not very practical to empty even though even though it’s just pressing a button and the cup opens. The problem is that the cup is on the back of the handle and it opens facing the floor, so when you open the cup you will need to be immediately above a container/bin. I get the idea behind it, unfortunately it’s just not very practical and is really prone to accidents considering how dangerously close it is to the on/off button.
Outside of the dock, if left alone, the vacuum doesn’t stand on its own in one place, it needs to be placed against something to not fall into the floor.
Handle wise, I don’t find it very comfortable of ergonomic to use so the design could definitely be improved.
Instructions are quite clear, straightforward and easy to read.
PROS:
– Lightweight
– Vacuums well
– Has booster mode
– Very practical to use
– Charging dose is easy to set up (no drilling required)
– Can reach difficult spots in the walls/ceiling or behind cupboards
– Doesn’t occupy much space
– Several heads/accessories to use
– Comes with a secondary battery
– Easy to switch the accessories
CONS:
– Not the most ergonomic to hold in the hand
– Not good with long/shaggy hair carpets or rugs
– On/Off button too close to the dust cup button
– Vacuum doesn’t stand on its own
Overall, the pros vastly outshine the cons in this vacuum. For me it has become a great gadget in our home and has made some cleaning tasks much easier. I am very pleased with this Shark Vacuum and I can happily recommend it.

This Hoover was easy to assemble and charge. It’s super lightweight but only has a short time to use before it needs recharging,however I knew this and I only have a small house
Quality vacuum cleaner, perfect size for my small flat. Battery life lasts about 20 mins but charges up easy, collects dust and dirt with ease. only down side is the dirt compartment is very small
Great docking station for quick charge of battery. It lives up to all its promises and is light, manouverable, easy to store and takes up very little space. The rsesults are gratifyinglly more than satisfactory
I would recommend this vacuum to all as it does everything it says.
Wow! Wow! Wow! If you need a lightweight hoover that actually works then this is the one for you! I am so happy with this hoover I actually prefer it to the Henry! This hoover gets about 15 mins per battery and seeing as you get two batteries I can pretty much get the whole house done on both batteries, or leave one charging while I do one part of the house. It comes apart to focus on different parts of the house, for example, stairs and skirting boards or the sofa!
It has a button to press for a stronger suction which I find helpful but it does drain the battery by about 50% it stands well on its docking station for charging without taking up much space. It doesn’t stand on its own so when it’s not charging I prop it up against the wall though. The part that collects the dust isn’t big, bit good enough for one or two uses and is easy enough to clean and empty once it’s been used. Overall I am overjoyed to review this and will keep using it!
The Shark surprised me – it’s really light and yet very powerful. It comes with 2 batteries, so you’re never without charge, the charging base and the hoover itself are super sleek and for a small hoover it packs a lot of power! It seems just as effective on rugs, wood and tiles – and I love how easily it detaches to form a handheld vacuum. Anti Hair Wrap Technology — The floor tool and pet tool come with Sharks Anti Hair Wrap Technology a bristle-guard and comb actively remove hair from the brush-roll as you clean, helping to keep it free of tangles. Perfect for long, short and pet hair and I have to say that it mostly works.
We’re very much into technology and have bought and tried many vacuums in our lifetime.
This lightweight Shark is just what I was looking for to manage our newly laid thick puled carpet. Our current handheld Dyson found it difficult to manoeuvre over this carpet and was very difficult to push.
This pet-friendly Shark makes light task (literally and metaphorically) of the fur from our longhaired rescue Ragdoll cat. It’s also a breeze with long human hairs which don’t entangle around the rotating brush-head which is a huge improvement compared to other models we’ve used and something they boast about – quite rightly.
This Shark comprises of three tools:
* The standard floor motorised brush-head
* A crevice tool
* A bristle brush nozzle tool
+ A detachable and multifunctional wand which can fit on either of the three afore mentioned tools.
Unlike others, this vacuum does not come with a motorised handheld tool or a flat headed hand tool.
Now here’s the niggles:
* The inner dustpan is about the size of a cardboard cast-off from a toilet roll. It’s surprisingly small!
* Also, charging in anything but the full upright mode is made difficult by the base station which is designed exclusively for upright vacuum charging. So, if you tend to use this unit as a handheld machine, by removing the extended motorised upright head, then you would fund you need to reconfigure the unit each time you want to charge.
The workaround to this, is that you toss the base station and plug the power adaptor lead directly into the vacuum to charge in handheld position.
It holds 16 minutes of charge and 8 minutes if used in boost mode.
If you consider this lightweight cordless as a first-world equivalent to a dustpan and brush, you pretty much hit the nail on the mechanised head.
It took me 10 minutes the first time to sweep my entire landing, which isn’t small. Plus, it’s quite a thick pile as mentioned above. The machine holds about 17 minutes of charge, though I didn’t feel a palpable difference in the battery nor any dwindling after that time.
If you empty the dustpan after each use, just as you would a dustpan and brush then it’s always ready for the next use and it never really gets full unless you’re cleaning up a huge mess, such as a box of breakfast cereal.
It’s super simple to empty:
You simply hold it over a bin (I use our tiny little bathroom bin) and press the detach button. the lower end of the dustpan pops out and empties its contents. There is a little bit of dust collection around the walnut sized steel filter within the dustpan chamber. I just user a pincer action and pull the tuft of dust away.
It’s then ready for it’s next use.
I leave the Shark on charge all the time. It’s supplied with it’s own base station which is the size of a pizza box. its a matt black and not very attractive. This is something you might want to bear in mind, as the base station is a bit on an eyesore.
There is no doubt this is sleek looking stylish vacuum, that weighs next to nothing making it suitable for those that can’t lift a heavy weight. it’s also incredibly easy to push over our deep pile carper, it simply glides over. There are areas of ingrained fur, where the cat has napped and “bathed” herself which take a few extra glides of the Shark to move the debris.
The other downside is that the ‘on/off’ button is directly above the ‘dustpan release’ button. When i’m not paying attention, I do occasionally press the dustpan button. But luckily, as the vacuum is emptied in our little bathroom bin after each use, it always happens to be empty, sparing my feet of a small toilet roll cast-off-shaped cluster of dust.
On the plus side, our six year finds this Shark a breeze to use. In fact, she prefers it to her toy Dyson upright vacuum. She say’s, “its alot to push and it actually cleans her room. Not just pretends”.
4 stars – But as you can tell from the reviews on both sides of the spectrum – you either love it, or you hate it. Only proceed if you need a lightweight unit, a tiny dustpan, something only for sporadic use (or to clean a small area), with minimal charge and with the occasional misfire of dustpan ejection!
We kind of like it. Hope this was useful, happy to answer questions.
Shark which doesn’t bite, however do suck up a lot of dust and dirt around your house. This is my second hoover from this brand, I also owned a Shark Bagless Cylinder Vacuum Cleaner which was too big to use it in my small apartment, so I’ve given it away as a donation. This WandVac model is much more convenient for me, has enough suction power and taking less space so it’s easier to store. Not to mentioned that great in price.
Arrived in a very well-presented box, I like when a company pays attention on small details and they design a visually appealing packaging, it gives you the feeling that this will be a great item even before you see what’s inside. Each item in the box were individually wrapped in a paper bag and separated with paper cradles to protect from any damage or scratches during the shipping. For me, who care about the environment this is absolutely an extra brownie point for Shark, using paper begs instead of plastic begs is much more echo friendly.
The feel, look and built quality of this vacuum is superb, it feels like a premium product. Theis Gold colour version is definitely winner for me it is modern end elegant at the same time, but they offer grey and purple coloured product as well. It’s super lightweight if you just using it as a handheld small vacuum without the extension and the floorhead attachment, but even if you use it as an upright vacuum, it’s just about 2-3 kilogram in total. Using just a head part is great for quick everyday use, to clean up small area. I think this is the best way to use this as the dust cup is pretty small so this vacuum is not designed to clean your whole house in one g (unless you are ok to empty the cup multiple times). The attachment and the floorhead works great too. It doesn’t lose a suction power by using attachments, and I’m super impressed how effective is the head to clean up hair and dog fur from the carpet or the floor. It can be a lifesaver for pet owners.
One of the selling points here is that this one is a cordless vacuum. No need to be plugged in so it gives a lot more freedom and ability to use at more problematic areas such like in the. I’ve not found any information regarding the battery size and capacity, however taking into consideration the size and the weight of this vacuum, it is probably small. The vacuum works around 12-14 minutes with one go from full charge. Not a long time but as I said this one is not a full-sized vacuum, so it comes with some compromise.
All in all, Shark is a good choice, perfect for homes with pets, for small offices and even for cleaning your car. Not the cheapest that’s for sure but it worth to pay the price in my opinion for a high quality, versatile and powerful vacuum cleaner.
This is very pretty looking cordless vaccum cleaner.
Having different brand cordless vaccum makes me feel that I want to compare them two -the Shark with Vax Blade 4 pet haccum.
Sharks is much lighter, especially the handle part. Shark has long and narrow battery which hides within the handle. Dust compartment is also much smaller then Vax. Filter is much smaller too.
Vax easily picks up hair from carpet and wraps up around the brush. If not cleaned often, the brush is not collecting as much of dirt than should. As far I’ve used Shark, it didn’t get any hair from my girls bedroom carpet wrapped up on vaccums brush so that’s a big bonus (at least don’t need to clean that so often like in Vax). When emptied the Shark dust container I saw some hair there so it actually collects them as well as dust and whatever found on the way..
Shark easier splits apart after pressing release button in comparison with Vax where force need to be added. The nozzles and the pole easily goes out of the position.
My Vax has a light option when using the brushes when vacuuming. It also has extra power button. Sharks doesn’t have the light. It has the extra power (Boost) button placed underneath the handle (rubber part underneath the index finger when holding it). This vaccum has basically one button operation plus booster mode which actually is not much different (Vax has 3 vaccuming modes).
Shark has heavy floor nozzle which works well with anti-hair wrap technology brushes. There is access to open the brush place if needs cleaning.
This floor nozzle can support the mid pole of the vaccum but will not hold the whole vaccum upright (standing on its own) due to the total weight of the handle (battery and dust bin included within it).
Vaccum comes also with slimmer nozzle and small brush nozzle.
The battery charges within 3.5 hours and that’s correct. I had to charge it on arrival. After quick vacuuming two rooms one battery level went down..and this vaccum doesn’t have the extra light which uses the battery.. I didn’t even use the extra boost button..
Speaking of charging option.. Shark comes with new to me charging base which also works as stand for the vaccum. This could work if we have enough space in the corner or storage place with a wall socket nearby.
I didn’t fully inserted it into the base yet because for now I will use the battery charger without the base.
I do like this vaccum just because is lighter when reaching top ceiling or doing the staircase. The heavy floor nozzle sits well on any type of flooring and helps to manoeuvre the vaccum easier (handle is lightweight, doesn’t make wrist more tired).
I decided to give it 4 stars for now.. Still getting used to it though.. Happens that I mistakenly opened the dust container when tried to remove the pole to use different attachment.. I’m sure I’ll get used to it..
This hoover is great. Genuinely. Because I’ve been so pleased reviewing it, I’ll start of with the negatives, as there are very few, and I don’t want them to sour an otherwise glowing opinion.
The first is trivial. It’s aesthetics, and personal taste. I wish that rose gold didn’t exist on this planet, and I certainly would never choose to have my toaster, kettle, TV OR hoover coloured like it. However, this was the only colour available to review, and so we (my partner says she also hates it) decided to give it a go anyway.
Secondly, and what I guess most people will argue against handheld battery vacuums. Suction. Ordinarily I use a Dyson DC25 Animal, and there’s no way that this Shark takes up the same volume of dirt – even visibly, much less the stuff that lurks in the fibres of your carpets.
With that aside, I want to explain why I think I am a total convert. The main point is simple. We haven’t used the Dyson since this arrived. Not once.
From the very beginning I was impressed. When you open the packaging you can actually see the level of effort that Shark have gone to to make this ecologically presented. There are ZERO plastic bags, polystyrene moulds, or cable ties. Everything is made of what appears to be fully recyclable materials. Even the way everything gets crammed into the box to make the footprint size of the package smaller is impressive. I cannot tell you how refreshing it was to see a manufacturer who’d actually tried to think about their impact environmentally. So a HUGE thanks to them at Shark, and a big + on this review. It set off a great start.
From there, assembly is simple. Everything slots together nicely. You have three main sections – the main handle/motor section, which in theory is the most important, this is also where the batteries reside. Then you have the central section. Essentially a long shaft which would allow attachments if you were trying to hoover up high, and also connects to the last part, for floor cleaning. This is a traditional hoover head. I find it quick and easy to chop and change attachments depending on what I’m doing. We have cats, and find that their litter gets stuck/spread around their trays. So I use the main head to clean up the bulk areas, then whip it off to hoover against the skirting etc to grab any straggling pieces.
We live in a mid-sized three bed home, with a combination of carpet and Amtico hardfloors, so there’s been a good opportunity to test functionality on multiple surfaces. I find that the hoover head glides pretty effortlessly between the two. Both surfaces are impressively clean when you consider the convenience of the hoover itself vs wired traditionals.
When it comes to battery power, my partner came in saying she loved it, but was sad that the battery died after around 15-20mins. Then I told her there was a spare one in the stand that you use to store the hoover. This is well designed as you can charge it simultaneously to the main device. The way the hoover sits in the charging cradle is a little fiddly, you need to take the main head off. It also wouldn’t take much for it to fall over, so be careful leaving around dogs or children’s prying fingers!
The two batteries combined have proved to be more than enough to clean our house, however you may want to look into getting a third if you live in a bigger home. The device has a helpful indicator showing battery levels when in use. A tip though, avoid using the boost trigger unless you really need it. This is a trigger underneath the handle, and increases suction, but it will chew through the batteries with laughable speed!
Emptying is very simple, though might take a few uses to get used to (I kept opening it when trying to turn it on)! I notice the quantity of long hairs in the “bale” that comes out when emptied, this is shining testament to the anti-wrap technology they use on the floor head. My partner sheds hair like nothing I’ve ever seen, but the head still seems to be clear of them – this is MILES better than the Dyson, which seems to collect them wrapped for fun – a total nuisance to fix. They recommend cleaning the filters for the shark frequently. I’ve not actually gone further than taking the dust section apart and giving it a clean, so I’m not yet familiar with how big a job cleaning the filter is. Couldn’t possibly be harder than the Dyson.
Overall excellent. Hugely convenient to pick up and have a quick dash around if unexpected guests en-route. Vastly easier when hoovering the stairs, without having to lug the body of a corded around with you. Just very, very good. My partner also has commented several times how much she prefers it.
If I had this one in black, I’d be phoning Amazon and asking them to implement a 6th star! It has most likely been my favourite review item so far from Vine, and that concludes a glowing recommendation.
This is a super bit of kit. Small but mighty. I found that I get almost seventeen minutes run time and then I swap over the batteries. The manufacture have been kind enough to give you two battery packs in the Shark wandVac system, meaning I always have one on charge. Charging time is about an hour for each of the batteries. I really like the icy blue colour of this vacuum cleaner, but they also make it in rose gold and navy, so plenty choice. The dust container is tiny and needs to be emptied often to stop the the tube filling up with debris. This is great for just giving the floor or carpet the once over, or a accidental spill of dry goods. It store easily by standing into it’s included charging station. The system is light and easy to use and the suction power is very good,. I wish it cleaned right up to the skiting or the inside of the stair run, hence the loss of one star. Therefore it’s 4*from me
At the time of writing this review, the price of this Shark VandVac vacuums cleaner is 229.00.
I have Dyson V8 vacuums cleaner at home and it has served us well for over 4 years. It is powerful and portable, but recently it starts to show significant performance degradation, i.e., sunction power decreases significantly. Now we have the Shark VandVac to replace the Dyson.
To start, I would say it meets my expectations and the Dyson can “retire” now. It is not a like to like replacement in any mean, Dyson still perform better in high power mode, but overall it is a draw.
The VandVac is very easy to operate and light weight, which is the key for a portable vacuum cleaner. You can easily carry it upstairs and downstairs, to clean every corner of your house without worrying your muscles would pain the next day. The sunction power is decent, for normal household and does regular cleaning every week, I would expect the WandVac will do the job perfectly well. It can also handle some dutu cleaning work, such as we used it to clean some baby mess on the floor and it performed better than expected.
The battery life is pretty good as well, for a single full charge, we can use it for up to 20mins. For Dyson V8, it would be the same performance as well. I really like the charging stand it comes and the spare battery it offers.
Overall, I would say it is a great portablr vacuum cleaner.

So pleased I purchased this vacuum. I have struggled with a Dyson but as I gave a barbs k found it increasingly difficult to move around.
I am really pleased with how light and manoeuvrable this is.
Easy to detach hand held and to add accessories.
If there is one small niggle it would be the dirt collected which is quite small.
I haven’t had the cleaner for long, but so far have been pleased with it. I don’t know what it’s like on stairs as I live on one floor. It is very light which is a plus for me – I often found my previous cleaner hard work.
When I first saw this hoover I thought wow that’s expensive for a small stick portable hoover. However once it arrived I was immediately convinced it was worth it. The unboxing of this little machine showed me the hoover was up to sharks usual standards. The main brush while being heavier than I expected is solid and well made, nice and wide and far better than any stick hoover I’ve ever seen or used. The pole attachment quickly connected in place and I was even more surprised to find how easy it was to lock them together and separate them again. Finally the main hoover. Small and compact connected easily to the pole. Two button near the handle can quickly and easily disconnect this part too which is again very easy to do, these mechanisms alone show the quality of design and workmanship. Switching on the hoover I’ve found it far more powerful than any hand held hoover I’ve ever owned. Picks up dirt and dust so well, cat hairs too. Once you’ve finished take the hoover and hover over the bin. Push the release button and the hoover dustbin pops open dropping the dust straight to the bucket. No removing the dustbins or removing filters to get the dust out. Hit the button let it clean and close. Takes 2 seconds. If the filter does need cleaned it’s another simple click to remove it all. The hoover comes with a charging stand and a few other tools, crevice tool and multi surface tool. The whole hoover itself is heavier than most little hoovers but only with the big brush on which is worth the weight in my opinion. Without the brush head it’s weight is very reasonable and to be honest when the hoovers switched on and moving the weight is perfectly ok. The battery is tiny on this hoover. Last about 15 mins on normal mode, less if you hold the turbo button in but it doesn’t take long to charge and you wouldn’t use this as a main hoover, just one for cleaning the one room quickly or cleaning up a small area the kids have spilled dirt or something on. The hoover comes with a 2 year guarantee and given the very high level of quality I feel this is actually good value for money, compared to every other stock hoover I’ve had this is 100 times superior to them. Very happy with this hoover and would easily give it 6 stars if I could.
I am honestly impressed. It arrived quick…and very very well packed. Big box tough….make sure you will be home waiting if you don’t have a safe space where it can be delivered. When i saw it…after everything was put in place…i was honestly concerned that it might not be as powerful…but oh was i fooled by the sized of it. It’s a very very qualitative vacuum i must say. I love that you can just pick half of it…and go round the house…cleaning in the upper corners of the house….or maybe if you’ve made a mess on the table…on your DIY project…..and spilled some glitter….you can simply take this vacuum of it’s stand and do your thing…oh it’s so versatile i can’t even explain it to you. When it come to vacuuming the carpet…amazing…absolutely amazing…it doesn’t leave absolutely anything behind. It’s very light weight…you can move it freely with one hand…you don’t have to struggle lifting it up or moving it around coz it’s extremely easy to maneuver . The filer is very easy to clean…i mean the space where everything collects once vacuumed….it doesn’t have a filter that u can change…so that’s a good thing…meaning you won’t have to buy any extras for this. It has lot’s of attachments as i tried to show in the video…it also has 2 batteries…one you can always keep in the charging port and one in the vacuum itself…which it also sits on a charging station always ready to be used… so even if you have a big house…you can always change the batteries if you’ve manage to drain the first one…i mentioned that in case you’ve read the bio and was concerned about the using time of it which it states there you can use it for 32min…but trust me….with this vacuum…being so spot on…you don’t need it for 32 minutes….being easy to handle and not having to be plugged in…being able to move freely around the house and it picking up everything on the carpet and hard floors…even if you have a big house…i bet it will be done in 20 mins tops…that’s how good it is. I personally am very amazed by it…already recommended it to my friends who a couple of them have kids…and they said it’s an amazing buy…just for the simple fact that it doesn’t make much noise…i mean..it does…but way less than expected…and maybe having a baby it’s easier to just hold the baby close you while using this freely with one hand…it can be helpful. It’s definitely worth the price….worth every penny….can’t be more pleased…it is amazing.
Suction power is good for its size and weight, use it for a quick run around the rooms and stairs
Wanted a cordless with good reviews that was reasonably priced and so picked it.
So far it’s lived up to expectations and I love it!
Yes it needs emptied after every use and has a short runtime but to me, great suction, lightweight, easy battery change and brilliant for using as a handheld far out ways any downsides.
it also looks cool and has its own station so no issues with trying to prop it up in a corner!
Did I mention it has two batteries, stops charging when ‘full’ and is well made???
Well there you are…
Pros:
Cordless
Easy to assemble
Sleek design
Compact
Easy to empty
Easy to use on stairs
Can be used cordless in car
Great suction
Multi purpose
Cons : A full charge only last for 40 minutes
I absolutely love this Shark vacuum cleaner. It’s fantastic, powerful and really lightweight.
We own a bungalow so with one full charge we can do the whole house plus our garage which is hubby’s man cave plus the loft.
It comes with two batteries and it’s own docking station.
It’s so easy to use and manoeuvre and has great suction.
It’s so quick and convenient to have around especially when you want to quickly go over one area.
It’s easy to store away too and I absolutely love the rose gold colour which is beautiful.
Absolutely delighted with this vacuum cleaner and very happy to recommend.
This is beautifully design, light weight and easy to use. I just love the rose gold colour.
It is great to whip it out to hoover crumbs here and there. It is perfect to use when you have a child at home and you need to constantly tidy and clean. It is light weight and perfect for the stairs.
However, I would struggle to use it to vacuum the whole house with this as the charge doesn’t last long enough for this. You do have two battery with this so if you replace it , you should be able to do half the house. However, I didn’t mind this as this isn’t design to do that , it is more for clearing up the mess without having to take out the heavy duty one. This does make my life easier, as it is more accessible and perfect when I just wanted to grab it quickly to clean up small spills and mess.
There is an ION mode and a boost mode.
Pros
– Beautiful colour
– Good Suction and powerful
– Cordless
– Light Weight
– Comes with two batteries
– Easy to empty the bin at a click of a button
– Excellent floor brush
– Sturdy
Cons
– Low run time of approx 15-18 minutes and takes an hour to fully charge. However, you do get a replacement battery.
– Need to empty the bin more often
I would recommend this. Perfect for busy households.
The Shark WandVac is a mini-marvel for fast, light vacuuming jobs, and upon acquiring this I have much less need to take the powervac from the closet, as I find the Shark makes it so easy to just clean up as you go along.
Parked in it’s recharging station it doesn’t have a large footprint, and the supplied spare battery can be on charge simultaneously. Best of all, the handvac section can be removed in an instant simply by unattaching it from the lower tube – the lightweight, slimline battery is in the handle, and motor and the dust collection section is aligned longitudinally to make it very ergonomic, well-balanced – and, with the crevice suction attachment, looks for all the world like a single-barrelled pump-action… vacuum cleaner!
The re-configuration of the vacuum between handheld and upright is so swiftly and easily done, it’s a very clever design all round.
The upright works very smoothly on hard floors, is a little “stiffer” on carpeting, and don’t bother with pile of any depth with it.
The two nozzle attachments – the pet hair cleaner and crevice tube – are both standard and efficient. Curiously however, the charging stand has a special receptacle for the crevice nozzle, but nowhere for the pet hair attachment to be stored. In all configurations it is very lightweight and easy to manipulate.
The one drawback of this baby Shark is is lack of power; as both motor and battery need to fit into the upper handle section, the motor is of limited power and the battery is of limited duration.
Neither of these are really issues except for when heavy duty vacuuming is required though.
I now regard this as a crucial and more frequently used lightweight vacuuming option that means I don’t need to do heavier cleaning as often. I’m very happy with it and, so long as one understands its limitations, will definitely prove a boon. Recommended.
Suction isn’t as powerful as my old vacuum, but the lightweight makes up for thus.
I absolutely love this. I currently have a corded shark but this cordless version is amazing. One full charge was enough to clean the full downstairs area or a full upstairs. It’s so light and easy to use. The collection chamber is small but that wasn’t a big deal to me. It’s great to use in the car as a handheld. Suction power is great and a charge lasts around 16 minutes. Highly recommended.
A slim and lightweight 2-in-1 cordless WandVac System vacuum from Shark that is perfect for my needs.
I already have a heavy duty Bissell hoover but since I suffer from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, I know I needed something lighter.
I have to vacuum on a daily basis since I have 3 little active kids in the house. The house is fully carpeted with some hard floor areas. With its 2 power modes with strong suction powers, this vacuum works effortlessly on these types of floors.
Its main swivel head together with the slim stick makes it very easy to manoeuvre around the small tight areas.
The smaller attachment heads are very useful for cleaning the stairs, small corners, and hard to reach areas.
My husband also finds it’s very convenient to use this cordless hoover to clean the car.
Charging takes only around 1 hour and would last approximately 15 minutes at the highest speed, sufficient enough to clean the whole house. But if you need more time to vacuum, you can simply use the spare battery and charge the other one.
I also like how it’s so easy to empty the dust container, just with a simple slide down of a button.
Having said all that, it’s a shame that it’s quite noisy. But it does its job brilliantly so I don’t mind it so much.
All in all, I’m thoroughly pleased with this vacuum and happy to recommend it if you need a powerful 2-in-1 one vacuum that works as advertised.
Let me know if you found the review helpful. Thanks.
So we have reviewed it from this perspective.
It is probably the lightest of the cleaners we have ever tested or used. It is certainly lighter than the V10.
It has a very good suction and the power head works well to complement this making it good at what it does. We have two very hairy cats and it does a good job of picking up their hair even when you can’t see it on the floor.
First negative I can see for some is the very small dust collection chamber. However, the cleaner certainly packs the dirt in and it is easily emptied. This also makes the cleaner easier to use due to it’s reduced mass. As a consequence we use it more than we anticipated when we purchased it.
Second negative. The charging. I like the fact it can be charged in the stand and that a second battery can be charged at the same time in the stand. However, I don’t like that you can’t charge it free standing if you want to as the plug doesn’t fit. This wasn’t a big issue for us but I could see how it might be for some.
This review is from the standpoint of owning and using one now for several months in a three bed house with three adults and two cats
Great vacuum cleaner. I use it downstairs where I don’t have carpets. It is brilliant, very light, very compact and works incredibly well. It is powerful enough to clean very well. There are 2 batteries but only once I had to use the backup one. Also works great in the car. There are 3 attachments and the pet brush is actually very good. I would not use it as main hoover due to small dust compartment (though you can empty with ease – 1 push of a button). The suction is a bit less than my main Shark but the convenience is outstanding. I can now quickly vacuum kitchen in 30 seconds taking it out and back to charging making it indispensable daily item for me now. Go get it and see how your life will change!
