Easy to assemble and to attach tools. Light and easy to charge and to empty. Good with hard and carpet picks up all the edges and cat hair! Wish I’d had one sooner!
The folding storage is absolutely brilliant. A winning feature. The machine is easy to use and seems effective. The dust compartment however is small and fills very quickly. But that’s minor for me but worth pointing out. Looks good, decent pick up. Quality
What a joy to not have to pick out the hairs from the cleaning end of the vacuum cleaner! Vacuuming is a small chore compared to that. Old lady, ancient bones, even more ancient cottage – I didn’t need anything huge or tethered to an electric socket. I’ve been using a cheap one for around the last three years and I knew it wasn’t picking up all that well. Well. When I received the Shark and put it together (easy), charged it, I was amazed at the power (a bit noisy) and how much more it had picked up than my old one. I charged it at the extension socket next to my chair – you don’t need to have a wall charger, and it’s still going strong enough to show my friend, who was suitably impressed and going to replace his Dyson with one. I don’t know where to store it (I have no cupboards), as it folds up unobtrusively and I’m in danger of forgetting where I left it! It has only a couple of accessories, and they look useful, but I don’t need more than that, so a huge plus for a person who has nowhere to keep stuff!
Being able to bend the vacuum cleaner to my needs came in handy quite a few times. I also love the fact that I can just open the trash compartment and then put it back instead of buying new bags. The attachments fit on the very end which is useful when needing attachments fairly low on floor level and as well as on the middle section which also was very useful when vacuuming something relatively high at knee level or higher. Overall a cleverly designed vacuum cleaner. The foot of the vacuum cleaner likes to get stuck the tube sometimes though so you need to walk a bit further back for this to not happen. This is the only negative which can be avoided by just stepping back a bit, all the rest is really nice
Excellent product. First use was impressive. It worked effortlessly on all type of floor – carpet and hard wooden floor. It was effective in sucking the hair from the floo
I have been buying Dyson for the last 30 years and wanted a cordless.
The Shark stick vacuum was recommended by a family member.
Too soon to give a working appraisal.
I previously had a Dyson stick. This cleaner doesn’t seem to have quite as much power. And the main head on the vacuum keeps locking in the upright position while pushing backwards and forwards at an angle any steeper than 45. Not massively impressed, but I’ve bought it now
I’ve now had it for approx 4-5 wks & I couldn’t have made a better purchase, in fact how did I ever manage vacuuming without it. It’s light weight, super easy to piece together & switch out the different tools needed, handy push button switches to change for the different type of flooring or surface.
I totally love the front light for those dark spaces & as someone with long hair, the anti hair wrap is the best invention ever. The plug & charge is also brilliant with plenty of juice for my 5 bed house or the odd spillage as needed.
Every now & then you make a purchase that makes life so convenient, you can hardly imagine how managed without it. This was one of those purchases. May it last long 🙂
Tools provided, just ok, bag a bit silly. Rather have had a storage hook. A full charge from empty: 3 hours.
In spite of all my apparent criticism, when you use it within the parameters I have outlined, it is worth every one of five stars. For light use: excellent, for 170 great value.
I’ve had it just over a month now and like it even more.
Exceeded expectations. Very good vacuum. I read the reviews about the weight & noise, but don’t see it myself. It isn’t that heavy, and if it is a bit heavy it’s because it’s quite well made. It is a bit loud in max power in a small area (like a porch) but really no cause for concern. Very good Hoover with quite a good battery life. I have a 3 bed bungalow and got round 3 times on one charge. Grea
It seems to glide over carpets and you wonder if it’s having any effect and then an incredible amount of gunk comes out of the bin when you’re done. Folds in two for easy storage in tight spaces. Gets into and under most areas. Very impressed.
I like the anti hair wrap feature. Good storage as it folds in the middle. But I have found it heavy to use. Something to be aware of if you suffer back pain.
I ordered this OBO my Mum. I was worried it might be a bit heavy as she is 80 and only 5 feet tall but she manages fine. She loves it. Plenty of power and useful attachments.
Suction doesnt feel strong although i know it is from all it picked up. Charges in 3 hours and can last a week dependant on how much you hoover- i hoover ever second day not every day. Wish the battery life was a little longer.
Great product, works well, good suction, anti hair wrap works well, only problem is small wheels at front need replacing yet I cannot seem to find for this model, I spent over an hour looking with no success
I have this as my day to day vacuum cleaner. It’s light, decent suction, easy to maneuver, great at getting under furniture, and perfect fir the stairs. However, for a deeper clean, I still rely on my wired Shark vacuum cleaner. I would definitely recommend this item though, it makes it much less of a chore!
I had a shark corded hoover, which had great suction and was easy to use. I decided to purchase a cordless one, despite having issues with the suction power on a previous cordless i’d returned.
This one is great, while it doesn’t feel as powerful as the corded one it copes very well with my house. The fact its cordless means I can just grab it at any time so I hoover more often and less is required.
One thing I miss that was included with my corded one, was a wall mounted bracket/hook. It made it easier to store. Luckily it does have a hook molded onto the back, so with a bit of adaptation (cutting a slot out of my old sharks bracket) I was able to mount this one in the utility for easy access.
It comes with one battery and a plug to charge it, where as a previous cordless version (the one I returned because it was terrible) came with two batteries and a dock.
I like almost everything about it. It is lightweight, easy to use, easy to clean, the attachments are quick and simple to change, and it has excellent suction. The only drawback, if it can even be called that, is the two little wheels at the front of the main head clog with hair and I’ve only been able to clear them with tweezers. Hardly a problem.
It is great for stairs, especially with the pet tool. All of the settings are good at brushing up the pile on my carpet so that it looks freshly cleaned. Battery life is holding well.
Only qualm so far is that when the waste hold is opened it doesnt all fall out and does need some agitation to get it all out.
So I already knew how it would perform.
It’s easy to use, not being too heavy plus I love the flexibility, so no bending required!
Charges pretty quickly, gives a good clean and is so easy to swap from full to handheld.
Very easy to store, especially if you’re short on space, with the fold down.
Although it’s not a cheap hoover, it’s not as expensive as other brands, but this is great value and now that I know what it’s like performance wise….I won’t use any other brand.
Loving the colour too!
This pack came with a good selection of tools allowing you to easily use it as a powerful handheld for things like the stairs and others for upholstery and use in the car.
Some people have mentioned it as being a bit heavy. I disagree. I just think it is solidly made. My only gripe is that it is not easy to move the floor attachment, with its long pole, in order to empty the canister or use a different attachment. It is very unwieldy to do on your own. I have found the easiest way to do this is to lay the machine flat on a sofa for stability.
Changed to cordless from a corded shark. Was not sure as reviews weren’t all 5 star, but is a great hoover. Does everything it needs to and suction is great. Good vakue
I am so pleased that I chose the Shark stick vacuum cleaner. It is so much easier to use than my cylinder vacuum cleaner. The suction is very good, the evidence is there to see! The battery lasts a good long time and no lead to keep moving as you go through the house.
Very pleased with the shark hoover. Have had a few dysons before but wanted a change. Suction very good & having the lights at the front makes it clearer to see when hoovering. I would recommend.
Very well designed, Kudos Shark team.
well worth the money, so easy to hoover now, the only thing I miss is that there isn’t a brush attachment for the skirting board which is quite strange….arrived on time, light, great to “split” in half to do the stairs and sofa…not noisy so dogs don’t bark at it!!
I’ve had this for 9 months now and I love it!! So easy to use, quick to charge (holds charge well) and the light on the front is genius. I have hard wood floors and hoover in the dark as see all the bits that my eyes have missed during the day light. Can’t recommend it enough
The Shark cordless vacuum cleaner has been a game-changer in my cleaning routine. Its powerful suction effortlessly tackles dirt and pet hair, and the cordless design makes it ultra-convenient. The battery life is impressive, and the easy-empty dustbin is a bonus. A top-notch cleaning companion!
Love my new shark I had a plug in one before but after 5 years it died on me so I looked to get a cordless shark and I am so pleased with it so much easier then my previous one gets under the sofa and charges quickly and lasts for 45 minutes but never using it that long
Would recommend
Yes the unit is a little heavy after a while of hoovering, but it’s not often I need to do that much of a hoover. Overall, I’m really pleased with this hoover. And a final plus, as the head is small, it reaches some places that are pretty hard to get to
Have a corded shark dup clean . Cleans perfect . Have 2 cats 2 dogs pics up fur so easy . Picks up cat litter really good on hard floors and carpet . Holds a very good charge .
Huge spider in the house last night, ordered this straight away to keep upstairs as my other Shark is an upright and cumbersome to get upstairs in a emergency such as this!! Well made, works a dream and has a trigger booster suction- fantastic as always great quality from Shark. Critters and dust beware!
I was surprised how small it is, especially when folded down
I can do the whole flat easily on one charge
I love how you can take off the stick so you can use it on sofas and smaller items
Also like how you can then charge it wherever you want
The feature where it bends to vacuum under sofas etc is very cool
It’s also very nimble, that’s probably one of the best things, so going round corners etc is easy as the head can sort of swivel side to side
Obviously great to be cordless
The onnnly thing I’d mention is that it would feel slightly weighty if you were doing a whole house, but you can’t really expect less when the whole machine is in hand and it’s really not bad
Previously I may have felt it silly to pay so much for a vacuum esp when I had an old fashioned one already, but I’m now a big believer in buying good appliances to make housework easier so you can enjoy your weekends and live in a clean home that makes you calm and happy
On first use, it looks like the right decision, and a few people we know have said they also have and are happy with Shark.
The thing that struck me most was there was no plastic packaging. (See photo) Everything was card or paper. Extremely good example. Other electrical items we have bought recently have come with loads of plastic wrapping and polystyrene. All manufacturers should look and learn.
Well done Shark!
Just taken delivery of my Shark Cordless Stick Vacuum. I ordered ‘Peacock Blue’ thinking that it would be a peacock blue colour – no – it’s purple ! Very misleading on description !
I bought this Shark because of the warranty they offer. I have had quite a few Hoover’s over the years including Dyson, and although these Hoover’s are great, many of the same problems came up. Battery would need replacing or the filter would need replacing or cleaning. I am happy I bought the Shark, but do find it a bit heavier than the Dyson.
Carpets look
Amazing. Picks up easily on hard flooring as well. Very easy to use. Love that it fold up, easy to store, just mind fingers first few times you fold it up, until you remember to keep fingers out of way easy to empty and clean. Would recommend as a good buy
It comes complete with a handy bag to keep the tools in, which is a nice touch and saves you hunting around for mislaid heads. The charge lasts very well. This Ninja does such a good job that when I want to have a deeper clean the collection bucket on mama Shark barely has anything in which proves that little Ninja is doing a great job. I have 2 cats & my Goldy so animal fur & my long hair strands get “about” but I dont have to worry about anything as the Anti hair Wrap works a dream. Thank You Shark your products make my life a cleaner place to be.!
One little extra I would like for my OCD is the option to add the correct size brush to clean out the tricky bits of static dust inside the bucket & head as I like to clean inside my machines after every use.
The lock system for attaching and detaching accessories is really straightforward, and the “extra power” trigger is also really useful. A massive bonus is also that the battery is detachable and can be charged as such, so there is no need to mount any fixtures on your walls.
This review looses one star, because it doesn’t come with any useful “dusting” attachments like other hoovers, which is really annoying. You should be able to buy them separately, but you won’t be able to to, because they’re never in stock on the Shark website (or indeed anywhere else!).
Would highly recommend, as long as you don’t want to buy any useful extras for it!
Even though this vax is heavier than other market leaders, which is not good for my arthritis, I love it.
It compares well with the main market leaders in every way, except the weight. I love the way it stands on its own when unfolded as well as the way it folds reducing the amount of space it needs.
The Shark gets into corners better removing all dust and dirt and lights up the floor so you can actually see it picking up the bits much clearer and reduces the need to go over the same surface over and over again . The storage compartment removed easily and quickly and is easy to clean and, unlike the others, does not collect dirt in the closure plates as some of the others do. It is generally a much cleaner process to empty it.
Being able to move directly from one surface to another at a touch of a button and boost the suction where necessary is a very smooth and quick process.
It has a number of add-ons, including a very useful pet attachment, a suction surface attachment which is great for work surfaces and a stair brush, as well as the proverbial corner attachment.
To top it off there’s the two batteries. There is nothing more frustrating than getting part way through the cleaning to find the vac has run out. Not with the two battery Shark. Two batteries and a double charger ensure no interruptions and a continuous clean.
The only negative for me is that there is no separate extension attachment for overhead cleaning but I still have my old one for that and the other benefits certainly make up for it.
