I just want to say how much i love your vibes. you're so funny and these reviews are so good. I love the energy. I saw one of these in target today and was curious about it great review !
Thank you so much!! Positive vibes all the wayyyyyyy 🤪😋✌🏽💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 Stay blessed, you rock!!! You’re a legend, your comment has put a smile on my face and I appreciate it so much!! I’m glad you enjoyed the review! ✌🏽
I would definitely pick my 2024 Vax Air Stretch over this, even if it doesn't swivel it would pick up more than the Shark, but thank you very much for being interested on the newer version of the Air Stretch on Tiktok and asking questions that I had to look fir myself since I had no idea!! Thanks for keeping entertained and happy 🙂🙂🙂🙂
I'm so grateful for this review! Other channels never even mentioned filters and everything else, I just had Shark in my shopping bag, but changed my mind!!!
I have a Shark 601UKT since 2018. It just broke (April 2024), but I used it when we cleaned the house during house works, lots of dust, including cement/plaster dust ... I think it was a great vacuum, and I will buy again, that's why I am looking at videos and comparisons. If you search reviews about Dyson, and compare them to Shark, Shark's are better and believe me, I have no interest in saying this. I just love reading reviews before any purchase. Thanks for the video.
Sharks have some good features but the terrible single cyclone system that just blocks all the time really puts me off them. If you want a bagless vacuum that works as it should, it's gotta be Dyson, they started it and do it best.
It’s interesting that you mention the hair wrapping around the shroud. No other reviews seem to really mention this, but I have extensively had this problem. Yes, in everyday cleaning the anti-hair wrap clears all of the hair, which seems nice but then all that hair just proceeds to go and get wrapped around the cyclone instead! So I still have to touch it! It’s actually so bad that I have to open it up to remove that hair once or twice in order to clean the whole house, which is annoying, messy, and unhygienic. I think it’s maybe actually worse than if it just got caught around the brush because there is no cloud of dust when you open the brush bar cover. I also have found their cord length to be extremely short. I use my one shark to clean houses and I often cannot reach an entire room when it’s plugged into a hallway outlet. So, I have to change the plug for each room and that’s really annoying and time consuming. You also lose a few feet of total length when you clip it to the handle to keep it out of the way. Since Shark uprights store their cord on hooks and aren’t limited by a cord reel, there really isn’t a reason on why they can’t make it longer. I agree about the handle and not having that end, but I can’t complain too much since my favourite vacuums have the same issue and the handle is also still far less bulky than a stick vacuum in handheld mode. It’s too bad about their issues because I think that Sharks have some really great features and I love their sealed HEPA system, but their disadvantages outweigh their advantages for me. Maybe I’ll make a video one day of some of the other things I find annoying with them.
What a fantastic comment! Thank you for sharing your experiences with your Shark. I forgot to mention the cable length getting shorter thanks to the cable clip on the wand! I guess they aren’t the worst vacuums, not the best either but definitely mid tier machines
I would agree with that. Definitely not the best, but definitely not the worst. I think they’re decent for their price since they do deep clean well (if they don’t have duoclean) and their sealed HEPA systems are something you don’t really get on many machines in that price range.
And it was all going so well up until 3:06 - I thought you were trying to audition for a job as a Shark salesman, lol, but good you gave a balanced review. That single cyclone system is old fashioned and not very good, but Miele also use the same system on their bagless designs, meaning the pre-motor filter gets dirty quickly. Its not as if other manufacturers cant produce multi-cyclonic vacuums either because many of them do - it is not against the law for anyone else to copy Dyson's multi cyclone system, with Vax and Hoover both producing many uprights with multi-cyclones over the last 10 years - for example the Vax Air was multi-cyclonic, so why Shark insist on using the single cyclone system for so long and using foam filters that leak round the edges meaning damaging dust goes through the workings if the motor, wearing the bearings out, is beyond me - or is it simply they want the motors to fail so you have to buy a new vacuum quicker, mmmm, I wonder.
🤣🤣🤣 yes!!! The single cyclone definitely needs upgrading, washing the filters all the time is quite a hassle but thankfully Sharks seem to maintain airflow better than other single cyclonic vacuums due to their thick filters The Vax air uprights are the best I’ve seen that isn’t a Dyson, their filters stay clean for a good while! I think the main reason Shark use a single cyclone is to have optimal airflow, with less bends for the airflow to travel through, the power seems to be stronger
I Agree Completely with your review. It works great but the brushroll and filter maintenance are a real issue. I find it works great if I use a different vacuum first for the floors and then vacuum with the shark and use the tools for dusting and cleaning edges and the cat tower and cat stand.
I agree I get so annoyed with the filter cleaning on my sharks, I wish the cable was a couple of metres longer. I’ve never had to attempt to fix anything because sharks customer service is great and always replacing the whole vacuum or new parts, but it would be nice because obviously the guarantee is 5 years and users will want to replace parts themselves without breaking the bank when the guarantee has ran out. I’ve noticed a slight quality improvement on the more premium sharks. for the price you pay for a shark you’d expect better tech, even bloody vax is multi cyclonic 🤣I agree with every point you’ve made in this video.
Dude i wanted to say you are my number 1 role model you've inspired me when im not in the mood or anything i watch you and you cheer me up i wanted to say a enormous thank you❤
Shark and its predecessor companies were actually licensees of the first Dyson cyclonic technology. Shark/Infiniti/Europro has not had a multi-cyclonic design for about ten years. If they just inverted the cone, made some aerodynamic improvements like a more circular or ovular bin shape, switched back to multiple cyclones, & improved manufacturing design they would actually be worth something more than what they sadly are today. They also need to introduce a roller more like the one on the Ball 3 and then they would offer some decent compet. I would not recommend a Shark to my worst enemy at this point. Their quality and design is just horrendous and also requires too much user maintenance.
I remember when the Shark Infinity vacuum came out, I wanted one and to this day I still think they seem really cool with their design for a Shark/Euro Pro vacuum It’s one of my dream vacuums One thing I really like about modern sharks is the powered lift away feature to get under beds and I guess it’s the best upright for hard floors, they’re unique machines but their flaws are strong sadly I don’t know why they don’t include spare filters, they need regular maintenance and it would make sense to have one in the wash and one on the go, Dyson used to include a spare filter with their DC07 for example I think
I don't know why Shark doesn't implement any of the technologies that they got from Phantom Vacuum and modernize them when they purchased them since Euro Pro the company behind Shark owns that company. And Also Phantom Vacuum is how we got the Dyson Cyclonic technology here in the United States back in the mid 1990s. I am sure they could come up with similar technology that James Dyson invented himself without violating the patient. I don't mind Shark as a brand because they are decent cleaners for their price range without breaking the bank.
Yes absolutely!! It would be so easy and simple to design a dual cyclone, they aren’t complicated at all and would transform the levels of filtration up so much higher than what they currently can do!
@@parwaz7861 Here is an update that might interest you and others. I just learned that James Dyson's patient expired in 2013 so Shark has no excuse on why they aren't implementing a dual cyclonic system for their vacuums. Via a quick google search as well as a video that a Vacuum repair person did.
The US duo clean version, the vertex adv I think, is worse the suction is so so, the duo clean head has many major faults with melting or the pcb burning out, tbh for the money I’d rather buy a dc28 with the head going out but this is just my opinion. but don’t get me wrong for the money they aren’t too bad, sure they are a little overpriced (sometimes) but not bad
Wow that’s crazy!! I never knew they had issues with their circuit boards and melting! I love the Dyson DC28 - reliability aside, it’s a remarkably incredible piece of engineering!
For carpet cleaning performance, absolutely! The hose is more flexible too and feels lightweight. The NZ801 is better on hard floors though and the powered lift away features is fantastic for getting under low furniture whilst still keeping the powerful brushbar The filter still leaks dust into the motor on the NZ801 but slightly less than the NZ690UK however but there isn’t many benefits of one model over the other really
I haven’t used a cordless shark before unfortunately but I always say cordless Dysons have the best suction and cleaning power, they’re the king of cordless vacuums
@@parwaz7861 ohhh nooo I was getting stressed thinking if you haven't reviewed I shouldn't even think about buying it! Dyson out of budget :( thank you for replying
Don't most Sharks have very similar issues though so wouldn't all Sharks be the worst ever? LOL. Interesting point though how the newer Sharks look so old school. It is probably due to their lack of an efficient cyclone so they look like something from 2004 and not 2024.
