A very good buy and value for money.
Very good vacuum cleaner. Cleans and picks up much better than a leading brand electric vacuum cleaner that I have replaced. Although the Shark is much lighter than the electric one it’s replaced, the battery unit is understandabley a little heavy. This is not a major problem, I have arthritis in my hands and I can still have a firm / safe hold of the unit.
Excellent Performance All Round
This is a fantastic hoover and incredibly good value for money. Seriously outperforms much pricier rivals.
1) Performance – ie collecting is great.
2) Manoeuvrability is excellent. It is a little heavier than others but the brush head pulls the machine along, completely negating this only slight criticism made by others.
3) Charge – happily does the whole of our 5 bedroom house on one charge.
4) Easy to empty, take apart and clean.
5) Added to this, and not mentioned in the listing, it has LED lights that light up in front, making it easy to see this behind doors etc.
Would highly recommend – my family thinks I am working for Shark such that I harp on about it in our zoom chats; and it’s a hoover!
Best spend of 2020! Thank you, Shark!

I bought this cleaner to use upstairs as our Henry is too cumbersome to carry up. It seems to glide over the carpets without any vigorous pushing and pulling so the task is much less tiring than using a traditional corded vacuum. The flexology mechanism allows me to clean under furniture without bending. I always dread having to put new purchases together and usually have to have help, but this was very simple and straightforward. The cleaner comes with little labels attached to help you learn which button is which. One of the best things is the way the cleaner folds over to store very compactly. I haven’t used the animal hair brush yet but when I eventually find a dog I have every confidence that it will work very well. We used to have a Dyson but this Shark beats it hands down in every way. It is worth its price and I highly recommend it.
Very smart and neat.
My house has mostly wooden flooring and I find the Shark ideal especially with the ‘head lights’ high-lighting dust particles. I like the way you can detach it for easy handheld use when vacuuming the car. The only downside is you can’t leave it without folding it back down as it’s top heavy and will topple over. The handle is also quite long so I’m not sure if it would be suitable for a short person as they may find it difficult to manoeuvre.

Fantastic cordless vacuum cleane
I spent a long time umming and ahhing over which cordless vacuum to purchase and I’m so pleased I chose this.
The design is sleek in a lovely colour with clever design to fold over for easy storage.
The suction is fantastic and gets out so much dirt from the carpet you wouldn’t know was there. Feels like it’s not doing anything until you look in the collection compartment and it’s full. In fact it’s got such good power it almost pulls itself along.
I was worried it was going to be heavy and it’s not as heavy as I thought it would be. Sure there may be lighter ones, but perhaps not ones that pack a punch like this does.
Battery life lasts really well, just made sure to follow the instructions which tell you how to prepare it properly for best use.
Pet tool is great for using on stairs and sofas etc, really pulls the pet hair out.
Lights are always handy, especially on the laminate flooring to see the crumbs not usually seen.
The switch between laminate/hardwood floor mode is fantastic and the extra power button comes in handy if anything grips onto carpet.
I’d definitely recommend purchasing this, you really won’t be disappointed!
My wife is a woman of simple pleasures. Her three, true hobbies are crochet, vacuuming and blocking toilets.
Two months ago we replaced our Dyson and it has been a game changer.
Drop a crumb? Out comes the shark.
Take your socks off and a bit of fluff hits the carpet? Out comes the shark.
It’s been a few hours since you’ve vacuumed? Out comes the shark.
I can’t complain as my wife loves it and I know that I have a similar obsession with irons and ironing boards.
Pros: good battery life, great “go flat” feature for under furniture, headlights on the front of the powered suction unit that illuminate *all* the debris, easy to empty bin.
Cons: inability to remove the anti hair wrap roller which results in larger pieces of debris getting wedged behind. If you wonder how much of an issue this is (eg why don’t I just avoid the larger bits) with the go flat technology that means it goes right under furniture and with kittens and kids in the house, stuff ends up under the sofa that can’t be seen, but can be sucked up and trapped resulting in a most unpleasant fishing expedition.
I’m pretty strong, but find the ergonomics of the high power grip are uncomfortable and would be a challenge for someone with less strength or mobility issues.
Great product!
Great vacuum cleaner, I bought this not as a replacement but as something to do quick cleans with, but I’ve not touched my mains powered Dyson since getting this. It doesn’t have the suction power of the Dyson but I can’t say it doesn’t clean the carpets as the Dyson. The brush action is really good on the carpets and seems to be lifting the dirt really well. Biggest downfall is any large objects ie anything other than dust, gritt tends to get stuck in the brush. Perfect for my house, downstairs is all hard floor. It just seems so easy to get it out and whizz over the floor. I use it more frequently than my mains powered vac and it’s much quieter. Great on the stairs.
Brilliant for those with dogs
After having used a different cleaner for a number of years I am amazed at the amount of dog hair that this cleaner manages to find. Lightweight and some handy attachments. The battery seems to last for ages but having the version with two batteries means I don’t even need to keep track of the charge level. Recommended.
When my vacuum cleaner was put together which was very easy i cleaned all the downstairs and got the shock of my life as the light actually showed all the dust on my floor
I have never had a vac that cleans so thoroughly.
Got a bigger shock when i emptied it as it was full of blonde hair keeping all the dust together.
All these hairs were mine.
What a fantastic compact product.I actually cant get over all the dust this is a genious vac and the price is amazing.
My rug actually looks better as it has cleaned it better than my old vac ever did.
It hygenically helps my asthma and its not corded.
FANTASTIC.
I love the fact that its a Shark product the best ever cleaner i have ever bought.
I now can get the dust from under my bed i cant praise it enough.
I have stored mine closed down next to a lamp in my extension behind a unit so you cant even see it from my other room.My old one wouldnt close down
but i still cant get over ALL the dust that i saw on my wooden floor.
AMAZING PRODUCT.
I would give it 10 out of 10 if i could
And its blue a beautiful colour and we women pick by colour a lot.
The most effective cordless I’ve ever had
The best cordless I’ve ever had.
This vacuum is the best I’ve ever used for stairs. It’s easy to use and effective, powerful enough to do a great job. The power can even be boosted if required, by simply pulling a lever on the handle.
The suction is great in all settings and the anti-wrap feature means no more time spent unravelling dog hair from the rollers- this is a huge benefit.
It’s not as lightweight as, say, the GTech, but is still light enough to use easily and it’s performance far superior.

Just not dyson quality
Thought this was going to be better than our Dyson, but I would say it’s half the auction power, collector fills up very quickly thus needs emptied much more.
Anti hair wrap doesn’t seem to work and it’s literally stopping the roller from turning sometimes,
LED lights on front are a good idea and it’s a doddle to store away as folds up great.
Guess Jimmy Dyson is still the vacuum heavy weight champion of the world though.

Great cordless vacume, anti hair wrap is a mus
Great vacum cleaner. We previously had another brands pet hoover and although this was a little more expensive they are worlds apart. Anti hair wrap actually works, great and lightweight easy for cleaning the sofas/ stairs/ blinds. The only negative is the turbo button is a trigger so you have to constantly have it held while using turbo which is most of the time especially in carpets. Great on hard floor. Highly recommend, you know your getting old when you start leaving reviews for vacume cleaners

Brilliant vacuum cleane
Picks up well very happy but it is a bit heavier than I expected. I am very happy with the head, I have very long hair and it hasn’t once caught around the brush, also have a dog. This is a great vacuum cleaner glad I got it.
The tool set is perfect for every job. Powerful vacuum for a battery powered cleaner. Better than any corded. It’s the best I’ve ever had.

Really impressive cordless vacuum.
Let me start off with that Dyson have had my custom for over 15 years but more recent models have become less impactive. The Shark is the top vacuum in the sea. I was a bit worried that it wouldn’t get around six rooms on one charge (20 mins) but it easily does. I’m glad I didn’t shell out for the twin battery model. It works impressively on hardwood as well as carpets and the boost feature is noticeable. Especially when side onto skirting boards. The smart charge won’t over charge your battery (allegedly) so you don’t have to disconnect it once full. It’s not a massive dust bin but I’ve found the quick empty method easy to use every few days. It sweeps around the rooms via the brush head really well. The motor can be connected directly to the brush head for stairs. It’s only here where I start to find a flaw. As the head is unsprung the head is floppy and if you are fat handed and clumsy you could stress the joint. I simply hold the motor unit and brush head in each hand. Would recommend.
Soooooo impressed
Really impressed with this hoover having had a Dyson handheld for a few years. It is a little heavier than the Dyson but so much more powerful. Love the feature where it folds to go under the bed etc, only bought the version with one battery and so far that hasn’t been a problem. We only have three rooms with carpet but we were struggling to get the fluff up with the Dyson but this hoover makes it look like we have new carpets. Definitely recommend this

Not antihairwrap
So the antihairwrap doesn’t work at all and it’s hard to deep clean the car as your holding the weight of the Hoover the whole time and it doesn’t fit in small spaces but apart from that I love it .
I always used to have Dysons but I can honestly say it cleans my carpets so much better then the dysons ever did. It’s great I can Hoover the whole house in one go.
Overall a good little vacuum & picks up well
Handy little vacuum, much lighter to push than my small Dyson.
The motor & battery are quite heavy & I think I would struggle with high level dusting for any period of time but not tried it yet.
The anti hair wrap roller work’s quite well but not 100% but I do have two long haired dogs & it picks up brilliantly & usually only need to remove a little hair which comes away with ease.
I have been able to vacuum the whole house in one go & still have juice left in it & that’s with using full power in a couple of rooms.
The only thing I’m not 100% with is vacuuming the stairs as I find the head too wide for them.
Great hoover. Does everything I need it to and exceeded my expectations. The anti hair wrap feature seems to work well. I read some negative reviews regarding this feature but my partner moults worse than an old English sheep dog and it managed to digest 3 rooms-worth of her hair without clogging up the rollers! It’s powerful with great suction and the included tools make for easy work in all the nooks and crannies. My only negative comment would be the battery life is quoted to be a 40 minute run time. I got nowhere near this, more like 20 minutes at a push, using the hoover on full power (as most people would I’d imagine). A second battery would probably be a worthwhile investment for this model. All in all though, a very decent hoover!

Love it!
I’ve tried so many vacuum cleaners and because I have a quite high pile carpet, I find that they are hard to push and maneuver, which hurts my back. Some have stretch pipes for attachments, which are cumbersome and usually pull the vacuum over. I already have a Shark steam cleaner, which is great, and now I have this Hoover. It is perfect, light, easy fit attachments, Hoover under the bed, glides over carpets and no hair rapped around the brush. I want to use is every day. Highly recommend.
This is a true and honest post!
Favourite ever vacuum cleane
I have owned this for 5 days, used it 3 times a day and love it. Due to lockdown, working from home and having kids at around more, the floors, especially the kitchen get dirty constantly. Because this is cordless and therefore effortless to use, because it folds into a small space and can live in the kitchen, because it has amazing manoeuvrability and great suction power, and because it has a detachable mini vacuum for stairs etc, it gets used all the time and therefore earns its place in a household that believes in form and function. The fact that there are lights on it that allow it to be used in the dark (and in dark places) and has bendy bits that mean that it’s irresistible to 10 year olds who are now keen to vacuum everywhere is just a bonus. What’s not to love.
Excellent and easy to use
Note-Run it on your hard floor to get the anti hair wrap working. On carpet it does not clear as efficiently. I have a dog and long hair but no hair in sight when I was done.
I just got my Shark yesterday. I charged it asap and vacuumed the whole house. I have only got the model with one battery but that did the whole house and I went over some places twice to see how long the battery lasted. I have a large 3 bedroomed house with hard floors downstairs and carpet upstairs. I did upstairs first then ran it over my hard floors. I found the vac very easily lasted for a whole house clean and more. No hair wrapped on brushes after I ran it on my hard floors to finish.
The flexing stick was a great bonus and I used it to get under my furniture with ease. I love it so much that I have ordered 2 additional accessory feet today. Next outing we are doing dusting together. I’m looking forward to it!
Definitely worth it. You do get what you pay for.
Absolutely outstanding, only used it once but the amount of dust it sucked in is absolutely phenomenal and I hoovered the other day with henry. Reason buying it was due to I have a big house and I wanted a cordless vacuum but for the first time I can say Henry will be kept on stand by as this vacuum cleaner is what I was looking for. Really impressed.
A machine that lives up to its promises.
Well, I can’t believe the difference between my new Shark and my old vacuum. What a pleasure to glide over all my floors, and using the attachments which click in effortlessly. The suction is so satisfying, and the light is especially helpful. House or car, nothing defeats it. This is my best investment ever. It gave me great pleasure to consign my old machine to the tip.

Love this hoover. I bought a cheaper one last year and it was a waste of time. Well worth spending the extra money on a decent brand. Very good suction even on high pile rugs and I like that you can change the settings for laminate flooring etc with a quick slide button. Battery life is really good. We bought the single battery and it lasts a good few goes hoovering 3 large carpeted bedrooms. The wider head is a bit on the heavy side but manoeuvres really well and it means you can stand it up too when storing it. I also really like the fact it folds and makes it really easy to put away. Would definitely recommend
This was bought on a whim after seeing it demo’d in a store and I’ve never looked back! The design is brilliant, it’s incredibly versatile and folds down for storage. When fully charged, the suction is excellent, although I never bother changing to the less powerful ‘hard floor’ setting. It’s so handy to use the short version, ie. detatched from the floor cleaning head, for picking up crumbs, etc. Thanks to the Shark, I now hardly ever bring out the mains powered vacuum which now sits in the back of the cupboard.
Brilliant Hoover, we had a vax one 32v before this. The suction of that was not good enough as we’ve got a dog that sheds lots of hair! We’ve had the shark for around a month now and it is amazing, the suction is amazing. Got this on prime day for 200 and it worth every penny. I would highly recommend. The anti hair wrap is really good as the vax would consistently get long hair stuck around it. It came with the pet tool and this was great for the sofa and stairs. No complaints plus 5 years warranty!
from advice from my sister who told me i needed a new vacuum cleaner and told me to get a shark, i did and was amazed on the suction , having hoovered up before with my old vacuum i hoovered up with the shark and was surprised on how much the old one had not picked up. top marks on this vacuum and so easy to assemble . highly recommend .
being a stroke survivor easy and lightweight use is paramount. while motorised brush is quite heavy, it is easy to connect/disconnected. compared to other similar products it is very well made, strong materials and easy to use and empty. top class

It glides through the house picking up everything. I sew and so there always bits of thread on the floor where l have missed the bin the thread no longer get tangled on the brush because of hair anti wrap. The carpet which is over 15 years old has never looked so good. Maybe we won’t have to change it for while?? The rugs are all fluffy and looking new again. People say the hoover is heavy the only downside l find is it pulls as it runs along. What surprised me was all the extras brushes etc come with it it’s far better than the old dyson l had.
The Pile on our carpets really stand to attentio
We borrowed our daughters Shark vacuum and we were amazed at the difference it made to our carpets, so we checked to see where we could purchase one but not quite as heavy as our daughters. We decided on the battery powered stick type vacuum as we live in a bungalow and too old to fiddle around on the skirting board with plugs. Our other requirement is that the filter was easy to clean and it is. So, its a joy to use and maintain and would highly recommend The Shark.

This hover changed my life
I’ve had this for 5 months now and am beyond happy. This is incomparable to a normal corded hoover! Way easier to use, lighter, maneuverable and picks up so much more dust (I had a VAX before). Great for hovering under the bed or sofa, as well as the stairs. The battery lasts for a week, maybe a bit more (I live in a one bedroom with two flights of stairs). 5 year warranty is definitely a plus too. Finally, it’s super compact and doesn’t take up much space at all.

You will not sweep this under the carpe
I have nicknamed this The Beast but you could use it as a tank buster. This is the first expensive carpet cleaner I have bought so I can not really compare all I can say is it brilliant, it really does what it claims it does. The hair wrap works 100%. its worth cost, good value for money I say.

Absolutely amazing! Its the best vacuum I’ve ever tried! Suction is great and what’s more iys so much lighter than what inuse to use. I’ve been a Dyson fan for 20+yrs and nor I’m wondering why I never invested in a shark vacuum before. Perfect tfor hard floors and carpets. I’ve ordered the car kit too and its brilliant. Can’t rave about this vacuum enough!

Fantastic item. Suction is is great. For such a good suction it has a fairly light motor. Normally you get good suction like this from a Henry but have to out up with lugging it behind you in the house. With this you get the best of both world. Light weight and great suction. I must say it isn’t as light weight as other cordless vacuum but then, other cordless vacuums aren’t as great with suction as this is. So great buy for great quality.
The light on the front works a treat too, for hard to see places.
The suction and battery life is very good but the main problem is that it doesn’t stand upright unless it is leaning against something. It is top heavy. Luckily I had been warned about this by a friend whose recommendation of the overall hoover made me buy one. There are many knobs and buttons on it but once you get the hang of these two things, it is great. Better than my Dyson battery vacuum cleaners.
Love i
So far I’m loving this, the amount of fine particles this picks up is amazing, I have a Miele cat/dog 2200 watts that I still use once a week, it’s a cylinder and still very heavy to drag about, I’ve used my shark right after a thorough vacuuming and still filled the dust pan, it’s so handy to use every day … My only down point and a additional kit is available, is because of the angle of the dust pan n handle you can’t access your car floors very well … But I do love my Baby Shark
I have an upright Shark already and I have reviewed this item already just after receipt, but having now used this cordless version for some weeks, I really want to say how impressed I am. I will be keeping hold of the old corded one, as I love that too, but this is just a lightweight, efficient little gem. I see the adverts on television saying how many people say the Shark products are good, shame they have not asked me, I would be one more person. Hoovering is no longer a chore. I love it.
I’m a fan!
We always bought Dyson
But a friend recommended and I’m so happy we bought it.
Very good capacity
Amazing features (floor lights and bending poll)
Vacuums very good (floor and carpets of any kind)
A must!

Thank you Shark, finally found a cleaner that suits me! Originally winced at the price – but you get what you pay for, a good cleaner with great suction on carpets, tiles and wood flooring. Didn’t realise I needed headlights on a cleaner but wouldn’t be without them now, stores upright bent in half which is a great space saver, not too heavy to carry up and down stairs, great emptying at the slide of a bar – in fact all in all I am extremely pleased. Charging from flat took about hour and a half, but most of all, the thing that I am so grateful to Shark for – they have made all the buttons, attachment levers and fiddly bits -manicured nail friendly and for this alone I salute you!!
Would recommend
I bought this to replace my dyson V6.
* It is much quieter than the dyson.
* It is also much heavier, be prepared to sometimes use two hands.
* The fold-away looks cute and takes up hardly any space – however be careful to press the correct fold buttton and not the quick release of the hoover end (dropped it twice)
* Battery lasts a long time and Charging is quick and easy.
* The suction on the attachments are fantastic in comparison to Dyson.
* Works great on hard flooring and doesn’t spit debris across the floor like the dyson does.
* Works great on what i thought was a hoovered rug.
Note: If you get something small stuck and it doesn’t come out – simply tip the hoover upside down and spin the rollers and it usually falls right out.
Needed a cordless vac that can deal with pet hair on our rugs and stairs which this Shark is brilliant at.
Now using it as our main vacuum and very happy.
Historically I have hated hoovering because I have had problems hoovering on the stairs with cat hair, heavy hoover, lack of suction et cetera. I bought this because I have three flights of stairs to Hoover as well as the rooms and needed something powerful, lightweight, with easy manoeuvrability. Noted good reviews so splashed out on one and don’t regret it . it is so good so easy to use, lightweight, fantastic suction, quick to recharge And easy to empty. I now almost enjoy hoovering!
This hoover is the most wonderful present I have ever purchased for myself. I don’t know why I never thought of purchasing one sooner. It is brilliant. I cannot fault it at all. It is so easy to use, no more pulling henry around the house. Thank you Shark for bringing this wonderful hoover out.
I bought a really cheap vacuum cleaner when I moved and got exactly what I paid for. This Shark is vastly superior, not just to my old cheap one but also the Dyson I used to have. Suction is great and the anti hair wrap thingy actually works! It comes with all the usual attachments and the small brush head has been really good on stairs and the carpets in my car.
To store it, rather than having to put a bracket up like the Dyson, this one folds in half and stands up on its own. Battery life is good and it cleans my entire house on one charge.
Basically, this is a very good machine and I like it. If you want a cordless stick vacuum cleaner, I’d say get this one.
Makes vacuuming fu
This is the second one I have bought.
One for work and this one for home.
It has changed the way we clean it is actually fun, even my boyfriend uses it.
I can whip round the kitchen in a few min which has resulted in a cleaner floor.
Also under my beds and sofa are much cleaner due to the folding stick.
Very effective, filled its dust pot after I had vacuumed around following a normal vac cleaner so it picked up stuff the first one had missed.
Best thing ever easy to use easy to switch tools i have the 40min unit more than does all the work for me. I even use the extra power button lots does not run out of power.
Shocked at how great this vacuum cleaner really is .., my hetty will be put up for adoption soon. Great suction without dragging up the rug edges (I have lots of rugs and an open fire … so lots of dust) this was evident by the amount of dust collected when I tried it straight after using my hetty. I’m weird satisfied and how much gunk was collected in the cartridge and disposed of easily. If you’re a doubter, take a risk !!!
Look after it and you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it!
I loved this at first, then hated it when it lost suction. I took everything apart and cleaned it, still no joy, I wanted to cry, I’ve wanted a shark for so long! Didn’t realise, but the long stick was completely blocked, unblocked it and it’s brilliant again. I think if you’re going to get the most out of this vacuum, then you need to check for blockages at the end of each big cleaning session, might seem a bit of a faff, but it’s worth it! We’re a family of six with a dog, it picks up hair really well, better than any other vacuum I’ve had, including dyson and Henry. It is a bit heavy, but only when used as a handheld, otherwise it pretty much glides and does the vacuuming for you.
Is the head heavy? Yes, it hugs the carpet better. Is it great on stairs? Yeah, use the attachments.
This is the first beater brush that didn’t have my wife’s hair wrapped around it in the first 4 paths. It ended up on the basket..dumped it out…awesome vac so far…updates later..

Excellent. Fantastic manoeuvrability, very light weight. Suction maybe not as good as a previous machine but does what i want from it.
Picks up the wifes mass of hair off the floor also which is a relief. The anti-hair wrap DOES work despite other reviews. Recommended
Love the flexibility of this vac. Makes it very easy to reach difficult areas. It collapse at the touch of a button for compact storage. It’s great for cleaning stair carpets. No downsides for me.

Good cordless vacuum
We have used a couple of cordless vacs now. This one has good suction and run time. Easy to maneuver and folds so can be left upright. Tools fit well and build quality good. Better than previous vacuum. Because the motor is at the hand height could be heavy for people of limited mobility in their hands.

Better than Dyson.
Bought to replace a Dyson V6 Animal and the difference in cleaning quality is massive.
So much more picked up with far less resort l effort, even when compared with a new version of the cordless Dyson I borrowed to test, a clean with the Shark on normal paper a couple of days on later picked up a substantial amount of missed hair and dust without the need for constant back and forth with the Dyson on turbo mode.
It is heavier than the Dyson’s but it feels like a far heavier duty and quality machine.
Only going it after a work colleagues recommendation as I had not heard of the bend before but would not go back now.

I have had a dyson for many years and then decided to try a cordless shark. Well, I am delighted with the results and amazed at how much dust and hair it is still sucking up. I would advise anyone to buy a shark ASAP. I am disabled and find it so easy to use and very very versatile. Brilliant.
Love this cordless vacuum, more powerful than my last one. Love the fact that, when using as a handheld, it’s just as powerful. Also like the boost trigger and the folding for easy storage. And yes, the hair wrap function really works brilliantly. As I live in an apartment, I cannot comment on its use on stairs, but as the handheld is so powerful, I think it would be great.
Can not fault this, had to replace my dyson which has been a nightmare. I can’t believe I’ve not bought a shark sooner, yes it’s a bit heavier but it picks up crumbs/dust no problem, much more powerful than my dysons have ever been! Would highly recommend
This is the first vacuum cleaner that I use of this kind. I have owned Dysons vacuum cleaners before but I decided to get this one for two reasons:
– Firstly and foremost because I was tired of the constant hair blockages in the head of the Dyson vacuums. In my house live two persons with long hair and this has been a constant issue with the Dyson vacuums. Whilst they have been on guarantee, I received replacements but I had enough.
– Secondly, I felt attracted about not needing to plug the vacuum in different sockets as I moved around the house.
I am very happy with this vacuum cleaner for various reasons which might be obvious for the regular users of these kind of vacuum but that, as I said before, I am finding beneficial being a first time user.
Its sucking power is quite good (and surprisingly good for a battery operated vacuum vs a corded one) and it is acceptable for my needs. When used on full power + boost on carpets you can see that it leaves the carpet really clean and this can also be seen on the waste deposit which fills in with dust. Likewise it cleans well non-carpeted floors.
In my experience and after having been using the vacuum for about 2 months, the Anti Hair Wrap system works really well and it serves for its purpose. It cleans hair and dust very well and its head has not blocked even once. Another function that has positively surprised me is the bending function of the long stick, which allows you to reach under the table, sofa and low furniture. I thought it was a nice to have but “pffff nothing special”. Actually it works really well and it really keeps these areas clean without the need to move them!
The vacuum charges in about 2 hours and it gives you enough vacuum time to do a medium size home (3 bedrooms, living room, hall and stairs) so long you don’t abuse of the boost power option. To charge it, I take it off all the accessories and leave it discreetly next to a plug socket after each use to make sure it is fully charged for the next use. Likewise the capacity of the waste container is good enough and there is no need to empty it half way through when vacuuming a full house.
I have to say that not everything is nice and hence why I gave 4 stars instead of 5 stars to this vacuum. I find the vacuum body (the top section which is the vacuum itself) very heavy. This is not incredibly noticeable whilst cleaning with the long stick and floor head on (although you can feel it after a while). But when you can really notice it is when you use any of the other two utensils that come with it (the piece to clean carpets, sofas, upholstery, etc. and the extended reach wand to reach the corners of the ceiling to remove spider webs, etc). I think that its manoeuvrability is difficult due to its weight; let’s put it this way: I don’t think my mother would be able to handle it.
Also, the instructions recommend that when it is stored you can fold it in two to make it less bulky. This is indeed a good idea and it works well, but the reality is that folding it is a nuisance when you could simply put it inside a cabinet extended. The problem with this is gravity! The head of the vacuum on top of it is heavy as I explained before and therefore makes it very unstable if it is not being held. If you opt for the practicability option of simply store it in a cabinet after use without folding it, chances are that the vacuum will fall.
In summary, this vacuum serves its purpose and seems good in what it does. However, it is heavier than what I expected and for its price, I would have expected a lighter device.
Still going strong
We had another brand of vacuum the power and versatility of this one is really good. We have a shark electric mop so mum wanted a vacuum from shark and she really wanted the anti hair. Which does work really well..
Battery lasts long enough to clean 2-3 rooms also really good on the stairs.
Would recommend to anyone looking for a new vacuum.

An amazing vacuum cleaner. Brilliant suction; this is the second vacuum I have had to buy in a six month period. Whilst the other one I got (another brand) was a great vacuum cleaner, it just wasn’t lifting the cat hair from my carpet. This vacuum does an amazing job at doing so and more, and without a special pet attachment being needed. Very impressed. The only negative I would say that it is a wee bit heavier than expected (not too much) and that it is not completely anti – hair gathering as advertised – you still have to pull off tangled hair that is gathered at the bottom of it. Overall the good points outweigh the bad; it also has a very powerful motor – it almost seems like it has a mind of it’s own. Overall, Shark has a very powerful vacuum here.
Very happy
Ordered this after my dyson broke. Everyone was rating the shark… they weren’t wrong. I’m very happy with this! Folds up in half for easy storage, very powerful. Moved into a new property recently and have got round to changing the carpets yet. They are very thick heavy deep carpets and the shark has bought them up lovely. Easy to use and clean. Can do the whole house and still have charge in it. I’m very happy with this product.

I wasn’t wowed by this hoover I got it for the anti hair wrap technology which works great, however the suction isn’t that powerful and it’s quite heavy as the motor is near your hand, battery life is ok but seem to need to charge it every time after I use it For the whole house otherwise It doesn’t last the whole time next time, that can be fixed buy just getting another battery, movement is good though easy to use and I like the bend in the centre so it can go under the furniture however it is very top heavy meaning it doesn’t stand up on its own unless you have it in the folded positio
This vacuum does pick up most of the cat hairs and they are not wrapped round the roller like other vacuums, well maybe just a bit but I do have a long haired cat. However, I didn`t give it five stars for two reasons. Firstly it leaves a line of hair when you stop, see photos. I then have to go over these lines with a handheld which isn`t cut out for it. And secondly the trigger has to be held on by finger for full power, as I want full power all the time I have had to tie wrap it on, see photo. Oh and it is heavy but I don`t mind this too much as it`s a bit of a `work out` but as I get older ( I am almost a pensioner ) then I will struggle with it`s weight especially on the stairs. I am glad i bought it though, my old vacuum was useless at the cat hairs and I spent more time trying to get them off the roller afterwards than actually vacuuming.
This really does do the job andf is far superior to my original hoover, of a similar type – a Vax, which just clogs up with hairs in the roller which cannot be removed without dismantling the whole of the hoover head. Anyway, the Shark is great – no hair collection on the roller, strong suction, fast recharging, and lightweight along with lights on the hoover head.
A pricey piece of equipment but would definitely recommend.
Pretty pleased with this vacuum, it cleans well and is lightweight. Battery life is ok and the accessories are useful.
However if you are looking to buy this model because of the ‘anti hair wrap technology’ it simply doesn’t work. Don’t know how they can get away with the advertising.
Very happy with my Shark vacuum cleaner. Arrived early. It is very light and it’s lovely not having to think about the cord getting wrapped around furniture. It’s great not having to change the brush while vacuuming between the carpet and wooden flooring. It’s easy to use and the top part can be detached and used as a hand held vacuum which allows easy access to ledges, smaller spaces and stairs.
Needed a decent Hoover because of hair wrapping round the brush on previous hoovers. Must say that I was very impressed. Hair does collect on the roller, but it’s easy to get off, unlike previous hoovers. Very pleased, would highly recommend.

Love this hoover, mainly for the lack of cord. Also conveniently folds away for storage. Bin is easily detached and filters removed to wash. Anti wrap technology doesn’t work, hair still wraps around albeit less than with my previous hoover. Removable battery.
Liked the two speeds of the roller brushes and the boost lever, quite powerful and really does the job,maybe a carrying handle would help when in the free standing mode other than that, excellent and well worth the price.
Compact vacuum but the motor is disproportionately heavy and thus not converting to a hand held for the elderly frail!
Cleans deep down and copes exceptionally well with moulting golden retrievers!I was so impressed by its performance that it seemed sensible to buy spare filters to ensure good maintenance,BUT finding them for this model was impossible. Shark were extremely helpful and kind, although we now discover there is a delay with this model spares. The company is dealing with this,
If people or dogs ever tread tiny bits of grit into your carpet, think twice before buying one of these. Shark customer services only state the warranty doesn’t cover accidental damage, nor do they explain how to remove grit getting stuck in the mechanism. Utube is more helpful.
This is the first vacuum I have had which has this problem, so in future it’s Gtech or Dyson for me!
This an excellent Hoover, as we’ve had our old one for a few years now, although it’s still working well, it gets frustrating having to switch between modes of cleaning, when you have a mix of wooden flooring and carpet throughout the house.
This does the job perfectly. It will easily clean the wooden and vinyl flooring that we have between two rooms and you don’t need to change any heads etc. It also glides easily across the floor and also the carpet. I would recommend that if you’ve got a particularly dirty carpet, to use the “power boost” mode, as the regular mode just doesn’t quite get the job done and left some crumbs on the carpet. This was a bit of a letdown until we discovered the power boost, and although more nosier, it’s cleaner.
It’s still quite a bulky hoover to use on stairs and to carry up and down also. I found that if you turn it to the side, you can get each stair done easily (there is an attachment for this, but for us, we found it easier to just turn it, and will try the kther attachment later.) There is a pet hair attachment (I have no pets, so I can’t comment on how easily that works) and also the nozzle attachment works well for cleaning those awkward hard to reach places.
I have quite long hair, and shed a lot all over the house. So the anti hair wrap is a bonus, but I wouldn’t say it quite works. Sure, it doesn’t wrap around one of the rollers underneath – but it does wrap around the other. This is ok, if you’re hoovering regularly, but when this was used the first time, it clearly showed how much hair the previous hoover wasn’t bothering to pick up.
This does fit under most furniture, although not under our couch, but glided under the bed before we realised what it was doing, to collect all the dust bunnies.
The battery lasts a good amount of time and charges in good time, allow you to take a break from the household chores. The instruction manual does say to let the battery fully run down, before charging, which we did on the second use, as it only lasted a little while, before conking out.
My only quibbles would be the hair wrap feature and the fact of how bulky and inconvenient it is to empty after a hard morning’s cleaning. When you see adverts for the Shark’s competitors “empties with a slide”, you do wish this was as simple. But at least it makes a change from the bags I remember of our hoovers when I was young.
Definitely worth getting, as it’s fairly self explanatory straight out of the box, and folds down nicely, to sit in a corner, until you’re next ready to use it. And it also comes with a handy bag, to store all the attachments/accessories.
Bought to replace a dyson v6 that died (and like many people I don’t want to support Dyson again) I read a lot of reviews before purchasing – most were gushing with praise and few were objective. So here’s my take after a few days:
Pros:
Superbly good at cleaning floors – far better than the dyson ever was
Battery lasts longer than the dyson
The bendy pipe works well and it packs up surprisingly small
The max power trigger is great – means you have power when you need it without leaving it on and draining the battery
Bin is actually easy to empty (unlike the dyson)
Almost as cool looking as the dyson – better in real life than in the pictures
Anti-hair wrap has worked so far – I must have spent hours cutting long hair off the previous vacuum
it’s nice and quiet. Probably less than half the noise of the V6
Cons:
The head doesn’t seem to clean as close to the edge as the dyson did and being much larger is a little more tricky for stairs. Of course you can swap to the small nozzle to do the edges
There’s no charging dock or wall bracket. This meant we have to find a space on the floor to stand it and physically plug the charge cable in instead of just hanging it up.
It’s heavy. The stick part is noticeably more heavier than the dyson but the head is really weighty. Fine for me but some of us get arm ache after using it for a little while.
The fact it’s so heavy actually made us consider sending it back but in the end the pros far outweighed the cons. I can’t imagine finding a lighter one that works so well. If you consider that it’s a cordless stick vacuum that has all the capabilities of a really decent upright then you will easily forgive a little extra weight.
