Customers Say
The Shark CarpetForce carpet cleaner is lightweight, easy to use, and effective at deep cleaning carpets and rugs. It has strong suction, dries carpets quickly, and is easy to maintain, though the dirty water tank is small and lacks stair attachments.

Nicely made but not the best cleaner.
I bought this a week ago and to be honest not as good as I was hoping. Works great on plain carpets but my rugs are not good. The problem is as with most rugs it doesn't get into the groves/pattern on the rug so you have to scrub them first and the the machine sucks the water away. Good result after that. Nicely made as usual with Shark. Also the dirty water container keeps stopping as the sensor/switch is to sensitive.

An absolute game changer! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
What can I say? This Shark carpet cleaner is amazing! Our playroom carpet is 12 years old and, although it had a proper deep clean five years ago, I’d pretty much given up on it. Let’s face it, a carpet in a playroom has a hard life! 😂 The final straw was coming home after a night away with work to discover that my son had spilt a cup of milk and left it to soak in. The smell was absolutely awful, so I had no choice but to treat myself to a Shark carpet cleaner. It arrived next day so I didn’t have to put up with the smell too much. I honestly can’t believe the difference after just one use. The carpet looks like a completely different colour, feels so much softer and smells lovely again. It’s brought our old, tired carpet back to life! It’s also really easy to use and straightforward to clean afterwards, which makes such a difference. I previously owned a carpet cleaner from another well-known brand, but it was so heavy and didn’t actually clean properly, so I ended up throwing it away. This Shark is a completely different story and has genuinely exceeded my expectations. I only wish I’d bought one sooner! My only downside is that it doesn’t have a dedicated spot-cleaning function… but I suppose that just means I’ll have to start saving for that next! 😂 Highly recommend if you’re thinking about buying one. An absolute lifesaver for anyone with children and well-loved carpets! 🦈✨

Excellent product
Bought a carpet cleaner from another major retailer; had to send it back because it was totally useless and almost caught fire! The Shark carpet cleaner is wonderful; very easy to use, and to clean afterwards. Does a great job and leaves the carpets virtually dry: totally dry within 1-2 hours. Excellent product.

Great cleaning power and so lightweight.
OMG this cleaner is amazing, my beige carpets have come up like new. I had a different brand which was so heavy and no where near as good as this. Thank you Shark.

Very pleased
Really happy with my purchase. Only used it twice but I'm impressed with the extraction as my carpet looks very clean now. The brushroll lifts the carpet pile and on the express clean, the suction is strong and drying time is around an hour. Lightweight and easy to use and to clean after use. The dirty water tank cuts off when the maximum fill line is reached but there's still plenty of water/shampoo left in the clean water tank so not forever filling up. A little noisy maybe but no more than expected. No stair tool, great for my little bungalow though.

Affordable carpet cleaner.
I have given this 4 stars because the major issue I have with this is the waste collection tank - it looks massive and that it will hold a lot so you can get on with cleaning, but it literally holds a very tiny amount meaning you are constantly having to stop to empty it. Why have such a huge tank if only an 8th can be filled. Having said all that - it is very easy to use. You fill up the water tank and top up with the concentrate formula, and then off you go. It’s lightweight to push and pull (which you need to do a lot) and it has good suction leaving the carpet feeling slightly damp and definitely drying within an hour or two. Cleaning the machine afterwards is so much easier than other brands that I’ve used in the past. The waste tank has a hair collection pot to stop things clogging up. The access to the brush is so easy and the brush pulls out - no tools needed. So if you do get any clogs or residue it’s easy to clean and sort out. Personally I have the carpets a good hoover with a shark vacuum cleaner of course, so let hair would cause an issue (we have a dog). All in all it’s a great purchase for what we need it for - just wish it held more waste in the tank for less emptying.

Hello there,
No, the Shark CarpetForce Upright Carpet Cleaner does not come with a hose or any attachments for stairs.
Thanks for using Q&A.
The CarpetForce Upright Carpet Cleaner is suitable for most synthetic carpets and area rugs, but it is not recommended for delicate materials such as wool or silk. For best results, always check the rug's care label before cleaning and perform a spot test in an inconspicuous area to confirm the cleaning solution is compatible with the material.
The CarpetForce Upright Carpet Cleaner is not suitable for wool carpets, as carpet extractors can damage delicate materials such as wool and silk. Always check your carpet manufacturer's care label and cleaning recommendations before use.
Hello there,
Shark CarpetForce Upright Carpet Cleaner:
Not suitable for wool carpets.
Thanks for using Q&A
The Shark CarpetForce Upright Carpet Cleaner can be used as often as needed, depending on your carpet’s condition. For regular maintenance, Express Clean mode is perfect for quick refreshes, even weekly. Deep Clean mode is ideal for more thorough cleaning, which many use every few months or as needed for heavily soiled areas.
Yes, you can clean stair carpets with your Shark CarpetForce. Simply fill the CarpetForce tank with water and Shark Cleaning Solution, then squeeze the spray trigger while moving forward and release it when pulling back to extract the water for effective cleaning.
Hi Chrissy,
We're sorry to hear that your CarpetXpert is cutting out and becoming unusually hot around the wheel area. This isn't the experience we'd expect, and we understand how frustrating this must be.
We'd like to look into this further and help resolve the issue. Please contact our support team so we can carry out some troubleshooting and advise on the next steps:

We look forward to assisting you.
Kind regards,

The CarpetForce Upright Carpet Cleaner has two modes: Deep Clean for a more thorough wash and Express Clean for a quicker refresh with faster drying times. To reduce dampness, we recommend using Express Clean and making a few extra suction-only passes by releasing the trigger. Opening windows or using a fan can also help speed up drying.
The Shark CarpetForce has been designed to be easy to maintain. The brush-roll is removable, making it easy to access for cleaning and maintenance. We recommend regularly removing any hair, fibres or debris that may become wrapped around the brush-roll to help keep your machine performing at its best. The machine should be cleaned after each cleaning session to help prevent mould, mildew and odours from building up. Components should be washed with soap and water and allowed to air dry, however no parts are dishwasher safe. For safety, the machine should always be switched off and unplugged before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance.
The base of the Shark CarpetForce Upright Carpet Cleaner measures 26.4cm wide (10.39 inches). We recommend checking this measurement against the narrowest spaces you intend to clean to ensure the floorhead will fit comfortably.
Hello there,
The Shark CarpetForce Upright Carpet Cleaner Model EX500UK has a base width of exactly 26.4 cm (10.39 inches).
Thanks for using Q&A.
Drying times can vary depending on the carpet and room conditions, but using the Shark Express Clean mode, making extra suction-only passes, and increasing airflow can help carpets dry more quickly.
