Shark customers are upgrading from traditional corded vacuums to a cutting-edge cordless model while saving nearly £200. Cordless vacuums are often hailed for their convenience, allowing users to clean anywhere in the home without the restriction of a power cord. However, battery life can vary significantly between models. Shark's latest offering, the PowerDetect Speed Cordless Vacuum, addresses this with up to 60 minutes of runtime per charge.
Massive Savings on Shark PowerDetect Speed
Typically priced at £399.99 on the SharkNinja website, the Shark PowerDetect Speed Cordless Vacuum is now available for just £229.99. This represents a substantial saving of £170, making it an attractive option for those seeking a high-performance cordless vacuum.
Key Features and Benefits
Shark describes this model as its 'best cleaning cordless' vacuum, weighing under 3.5kg. It features an intelligent sensor system that automatically detects dirt, floor type, edges, and direction, adjusting power accordingly for efficient cleaning. The 'reveal beam' light helps uncover hidden dust on hard floors, while the 'Flexology' wand bends to clean under furniture and storage spaces easily.
Customer Reviews and Feedback
The Shark PowerDetect Speed has earned a 4.6-star rating on SharkNinja. One delighted customer wrote: "I received this product to test and can i just say WOW, i was a devoted corded user convinced it was superior to cordless but oh my was i wrong, its quick, easy and so convenient but mainly its 100% better than my corded one, believe me I have 8 cats I'd know, fur, litter, dust, it just gets it all and this isnt even the pet model! thank you shark for proving me wrong ive been converted to a cordless lover!"
Another reviewer commented: "Excellent quality product, far better than dragging a cable and having to keep moving the plug to a different power socket." A third added: "A game changer for us. I always love the sharp, sleek design of Shark Ninja products. And with this ‘humble’ vacuum cleaner, the functionality matches my expectations. It picks up everything with no wrapping around the brush, and the swivel wand is so useful. I love the way I can store it folded over so don’t need a tall cupboard. I can do all of my 4-bed house on one charge. It is easy to empty. I recommend this product 100%."
A fourth user stated: "Love my new cordless. I still have my Shark corded vacuum cleaner too, but I am really impressed with the cordless suction power, I may not need a back up. By using the lower power on hard floors and max power on carpets, I get a fab clean and the battery lasts the whole house. I also love the ease of just doing a quick vacuum before guests or in the kitchen after meal prep etc."
A fifth said: "I was pleasantly surprised by how good the vacuum cleaner is. Only used a couple of times so far. But so far so good. The battery lasts well as well." A sixth added: "Had this item about 3 weeks now and love it. It’s so quick and easy to use. The battery lasts more than long enough, and the dust container is more than big enough. I like the fact that this hoover is very light and it can also get under furniture. I hoover about 4 times a day now as hoovering is no longer a chore. Definitely recommend."
Potential Drawbacks
However, not all feedback was entirely positive. One customer noted: "This is a good hoover, but doesn’t necessarily have the best battery life. I love the way it changes colours/ suction power on different surfaces- only issue is it doesn’t last particularly long." Another added: "Powerful and easy to use. Cleans effectively and is lightweight, making it accessible for upstairs too. Only drawback is I can’t find replacement batteries with the correct code on the website, hence only 4 stars."
