Customers Say
Shark vacuum offers excellent suction, effective pet hair removal, and easy maneuverability. However, many users find the stiff, awkward power cord and some design flaws frustrating.

Great Hoover
Best hoover we've ever had, definitely worth the money, easy to use, manoeuvres really well. Picks up everything, It's fairly quiet but not fussed about that, it's a hoover! Only had it a month but time will tell.

Not recommended
Bought a week ago and wish I hadn’t and had taken heed of other reviews. It feels cheap to the touch, light and flimsy and probably easily broken. Power cord on the right and usually on the left so very awkward. Power cord is also very stiff and rigid and not easy or comfortable to work with. The long narrow tool for cleaning in tight spaces does not fit securely onto anywhere on the vacuum which is very inconvenient. Would not recommend and wish I hadn’t purchased it. On the upside it does suction well and is easy to empty.

Shark pet hoover
Good hoover, unfortunately let down by the mains lead The cable is not pliable which makes it difficult to put around the cord grip

Good vacuum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] really good vacuum, lightweight, easy to use. only negative is the cord is sooooo stiff, it’s near impossible to wrap up.

See my previous review.
Second review after a request from Shark Ninja. Machine still works. No more negatives than my original review. Cord is stil extremely stiff and impractical as are the on board storage options of the add ons. Can not in my heart fully recommend it to friends solely on the awful cable.

Impressed with Shark hoover, one little niggle cable very stiff might get better with use.

Excellent Accessibility Features
Excellent Accessibility Features, But Cable Durability Needs Immediate Improvement As someone managing the physical challenges of Multiple Sclerosis, keeping up with deep cleaning can be incredibly exhausting. After my family suffered a severe bereavement, our two grieving dogs began having regular stress accidents on our carpets. After trying to manually scrub the floors with brushes and towels—which caused severe physical strain—I invested in the Shark Stratos Lift-Away Upright Vacuum (LA450UKT) and a Shark Carpet Washer. The physical accessibility of the vacuum is brilliant. Because MS fatigue makes lifting heavy objects painful, the "Lift-Away" feature is a total lifesaver. I can instantly detach the lightweight canister unit from the main base to clean our furniture and stairs without straining my hands or back. Additionally, managing ADHD, autism, and dyslexia means I need low-maintenance tools. The Anti Hair Wrap Plus technology works flawlessly, removing the sensory nightmare and physical struggle of manually cutting tangled hair out of the brush roll. However, there is one major durability flaw: the mains power cable is not strong enough. This is actually my second unit of this exact model because the first one accidentally got caught by the vacuum's brush roll and cut straight through the outer sheath to the inner white insulation layer. While the machine functions perfectly from an accessibility standpoint, Shark needs to strengthen the outer thickness of their cords to prevent quick, dangerous damage if it accidentally encounters the high-powered roller head. Combined with my Shark Carpet Washer, it is an amazing setup for independent, accessible cleaning, provided you are exceptionally careful keeping the cable out of the vacuum's path.
