Black Friday may still be weeks away, but one major home tech brand has already launched spectacular early discounts that are causing a stir among UK shoppers.
Shark's Black Friday sale is now live, offering massive price reductions across its popular range of cleaning appliances. The brand has slashed prices by up to £300 on select models, making this an ideal time to upgrade your home cleaning arsenal.
Top Picks From Shark's Early Black Friday Event
As a technology journalist who has covered multiple Black Friday seasons, I've combed through Shark's entire sale collection to identify the standout offers. The brand provides numerous models to suit different needs and budgets, but these five deals represent exceptional value for money.
Shark Stratos Anti Hair Wrap Plus Cordless Vacuum – Now £199.99
This premium cordless vacuum has been reduced from £399.99 to just £199.99 – a staggering 50% discount. Shark claims this model delivers their 'best ever hair pick-up', making it perfect for households with pets. Its innovative anti-hair wrap technology prevents tangles while cleaning, and the 'Clean Sense IQ' feature automatically adjusts suction power to remove up to 50% more dirt.
The vacuum boasts a 60-minute battery life and includes Anti-Odour Technology to combat unpleasant smells. While popular cleanfluencer Mrs Hinch favours this model, some users have noted it can feel slightly clunky during use.
Shark Deluxe Steam and Scrub Automatic Steam Mop – Now £119.99
For those focusing on hard floor cleaning, Shark's best-selling steam mop has dropped from £179.99 to £119.99. This device sanitises sealed hard floors using only water – no chemicals required – with pads rotating at 150 times per minute to tackle dust, grease, grime and bacteria.
The mop features three cleaning modes and comes with six cleaning pads. Reviews praise how it 'glides across the floor' and performs excellently on white tiles, though some note it might not reach deep into grout lines between certain tiles.
Shark PowerDetect Cordless Pet Vacuum Cleaner – Now £249.99
This limited edition model represents one of Shark's most impressive discounts, falling from £449.99 to £249.99 – a saving of £200. The deal includes six accessories, including a complimentary car detailing kit.
Shark states this offers their 'most powerful' cordless suction, with PowerFins Detect technology that optimises performance based on detected dirt, edges, corners and floor type. It includes Anti Hair Wrap technology and works in both forward and reverse directions with an extended 70-minute runtime that outperforms rivals like the Dyson V11 Extra.
Shoppers have awarded this model an impressive 4.8-star rating, describing it as 'lightweight, brilliant with hair and as powerful as a corded' vacuum, though a minority found it heavier than anticipated.
Shark StainForce Cordless Stain-Destroying Spot Cleaner – Now £129.99
Reduced from £174.99 to £129.99, this handheld spot cleaner targets household stains from muddy footprints to wine spills. It uses Shark's proprietary formulas that activate on contact to break down both fresh and set-in stains on carpets, rugs, stairs, upholstery and car interiors.
The device isn't designed for cleaning wool surfaces, but Shark is offering an additional 25% off cleaning solution refills at checkout. This cordless option provides greater freedom than corded alternatives like the Vax SpotWash Home Pet-Design Spot Cleaner.
Shark PowerDetect 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum and Mop – Now £399.99
At the higher end of Shark's range, this multifunctional robot vacuum and mop has seen a massive £300 reduction from £699.99 to £399.99. The self-emptying, self-refilling device serves as both vacuum and mop, using 360° LiDAR vision to map your home and navigate around obstacles.
It automatically returns to its charging base to empty collected dirt and refill with clean water. Buyers report it makes 'a huge difference' to cleaning workloads, though some found the mapping system challenging to configure initially. Despite its premium price point, it remains significantly more affordable than Dyson's robot vacuum alternatives.
Why Shark's Early Black Friday Deals Stand Out
These early discounts provide substantial savings on Shark's innovative cleaning technology, often presenting more budget-friendly alternatives to premium brands like Dyson. With the official Black Friday date of November 28th still ahead, these current offers allow shoppers to secure top-tier cleaning appliances without the last-minute rush.
The combination of advanced features and significant discounts makes this sale particularly noteworthy for anyone considering upgrading their home cleaning equipment before the festive season.
