Customers Say
Powerful suction and effective on hard floors and carpets, lightweight and easy to use. Battery life varies; some find it short and inconvenient to charge separately. Issues with pet hair clogging and heaviness noted by some users.

Disappointment
I can’t say that I am satisfied with the product I purchased last week. Although the suction power is good, the battery only lasts about half an hour. In addition, I have to remove the battery and charge it separately after every use, which makes it quite inconvenient. With my previous device, I could simply place it on its wall-mounted dock to charge once I was done. For this reason, the current product does not meet my expectations in terms of usability. Therefore, I am considering returning the product. I would appreciate it if you could provide information about the return process.

Very easy to use and cleans well - would recommend! Love the light that highlights all the dirt and the variable speed that responds to the level of dirt.

Great vacuum
Pickup excellent particularly with 3 dogs. Would have preferred 2 batteries
JACPWC, 65 or over
Easy to use
So far so good. Bought to replace different make. i have an equal amount of hard flooring and carpeting so it does go from one to the other easily and suction is good for both types. Only negative point is it does not automatically rechange you have to take the battery off to do this (the automatic emptier and charger was too much extra money),

Could be improved very easily
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great bit of kit and stands up to much more expensive brands. The one disappointing design feature is that it won’t stand upright on its oven the handle is in it’s operating position and hence the 4 star review.

Yes, as that is the only charger available at the moment for the Shark PowerDetect Cordless Vacuum.
Emptying is manual, this model has a 0.7 litre dust cup that opens from the bottom with a release button, and the cup can be removed for cleaning. It does not recharge on a wall bracket. The removable battery charges in the included charging sleeve and plug, and the vacuum stores freestanding by folding with Flexology, no wall mount needed.
Yes, the Shark PowerDetect Cordless Stick Vacuum comes with built-in LED lights on the DuoClean Detect nozzle to illuminate your cleaning path.
This unit does not include a wall feature. To switch the vacuum to storage mode, press the Flexology wand unlock button while folding the handheld vacuum forward until it leans against the wand. To release the vacuum from storage mode, unfold the vacuum until the wand straightens and clicks securely back in place.
Yes, it can.
The Body Motor Watts for the Detect Pro Cordless Vacuum Cleaner IP1251UKT is 380W.
Certainly! This unit features Anti Hair Wrap Plus technology, designed for exceptional hair collection and prevention of hair tangles. Its specially engineered bristles effectively lift hair while you clean. The chevron pattern guides debris and channels hair towards the center of the floorhead, where it is efficiently captured by the anti-wrap combs. This ensures powerful hair removal, making it ideal for all types of hair, including long, short, and pet hair.
The design allows for complete bending, enabling convenient storage and charging with Flexology. This adaptable wand easily maneuvers under low-profile furniture, such as deep sofas and beds, reaching tight spaces without the need for heavy lifting. With just a button press, it folds down for compact, upright storage.
