The Shark vacuum cleaners that are cheaper than Dyson and incredible at getting 'embedded' hair out of carpets

Shark customers swear by their ability to get rid of pet hairs

Shark customers have raved about their vacuum cleaner which has the ability to rid carpets of unwanted pet hair. Using their signature Anti Hair Wrap Technology separates and removes long, short and pet hair from the brush-roll as you clean, sucking it straight up into the dust cup.

In comparison to Dyson, which retails their V8 vacuum for £249.99, the current sale at Shark means you can get their wallet-friendly options for even less. The Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Pet Vacuum was originally priced at £379.99, however with their current sale it is available for £279.99.

By using this discount - 20OFFIZ2020723 - shoppers can save a further £20 off the sale price, with the total price costing you £259.99. Currently boasting an 4.4 out of five star rating from 378 reviews, Shark shoppers revealed their own thoughts about the product . One person wrote: “My hoover packed up so I decided to review the Shark hoovers, I ended up buying this cordless one, which I love, so easy to use.”

Another said: “Hi my shark hoover is absolutely brilliant it's perfect for my flat 10/10 For day-to-day use.”

A third commented: “This is great for me as I use sticks, light and does job well great and having no cord fantastic.light enough for me to carry around house, and like it folds down neatly. My son says not as good as out traditional shark hoover but I'm very impressed.”

However, some did find issues with it, saying: “Easy to assemble and instructions on use fine. Noticed 2 small wheels a front of vacuum head were clogged up within days of use. Tried in vain to clean but no success. I have had vacuum s with similar wheels which could be removed to clean.. Spoke with manufacturers and they said the wheels were not removable they agreed they would send a replacement. We will have to see if happens again.”

A second wrote: “Very good at picking up everything, especially dog hair, but find emptying and storage rather clumsy.”

One shopper explained the Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Pet Vacuum made “light work of the dog bed in the boot” and described it as the “ideal solution for anyone who hates vacuuming with a passion, cutting down cleaning time and minimising exertion”. They said the Shark vacuum cleaners were “exceptional,” having only used them for a short period of time.

One customer wrote: “Over the weekend, we took my rescue Staffie-crosses to Tatton Park’s DogFest, which gave me the perfect opportunity to test out the new Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Pet Vacuum - could it be the answer to all my dog-ownership woes?

“The Shark Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner with single battery is available for £379.99 on the Shark Clean website, but you can actually get more battery life for less with the double battery version, which is currently on offer for £299.99 - making it cheaper than the comparable Dyson V8.

“Fully assembled, the vacuum effortlessly picked up hair and dirt from what we thought were our clean living room rugs. They’d been cleaned only the previous day, but dog owners know all too well that you’re soon back to square one.

“The lightweight vacuum is easy to navigate, and is fitted with a flexible wand that bends to easily clean under furniture without heavy lifting, sliding nearly under sofas and TV units. But the greatest test for this powerhouse gadget would be the car. Phoebe and Frank, who are eight and five respectively, travel in the boot on a plush Scruffs dog bed. And after our weekend outing, it was absolutely covered in embedded pet hair.”

However, it didn’t come without its flaws. The shopper pointed out that one of the cons was its inability to stand up “unaided” when fully upright and its 40 minute battery life can sometimes be too quick to clean everything properly.

There’s also the Shark Classic Anti Hair Wrap Upright Vacuum , which retails at £349.99. However, in the sale, the product is currently priced at £239.99. By using the discount code - 20OFFNZ8010723 - you can also save a further £20 on the sale price. Meaning you could bag the Shark Classic Anti Hair Wrap Upright Vacuum for £219.99.

This vacuum boasts an average 4.5 out of five star rating from 836, with customers calling it a “good, solid hoover”. One previous shopper said: “It has good suction and the different parts are fairly straightforward and easy to use. I like the headlights, they’re just cool. The best thing about it is that you can detach the hoover from the stand making things like stairs and other awkward parts easier to reach.”

Another wrote: “This hoover is fantastic, compact and powerful easy to use and empty, I’ve had it nearly 3years and the roller stopped working, tried all the usual things ended up calling them, within 10 minutes I had a new hoover head ordered within the guarantee, I wouldn’t hesitate to repurchase or recommend. All family have now switched over to sharks. Superb!”
