Shark Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner [IZ251UKT] Anti Hair Wrap, Pet Hair, Twin Battery, Red, Burgundy

Powerful cordless vacuum with strong suction on carpets and hard floors. The anti‑hair wrap feature works well and the twin batteries give plenty of run time for the whole house- still have it now in 2026!

This Shark is a nicely designed vacuum cleaner. My last one a Dyson upright has given up the ghost it needed needed replacing as did my Dyson handheld vacuum cleaner so I purchased the shark in place of my two Dyson vacuum cleaners. Used it today for the first time and was very surprised by the weight of it, so much lighter than my Dyson consequently a lot easier to carry up the stairs. It comes with a set of tools which is enough I would think for the average person, I understand they also have specialist tools available. They also supply a canvas bag to carry the tools with you, which is very handy. The container for the dust in my opinion is a bit small and I found it convenient to have a plastic bag on hand to take the dust as I went through each room. This is not a complaint merely an observation. To release the dust container, there is a button on the side that you press to release the container, be careful of this button when using the tools supplied, I made an error when cleaning the stairs and pressed this button in error, the dust container was released and bounced all the way to the bottom of the stairs but fortunately or by design the dust container remained closed and no harm was done and the dust container survived the fall. My only complaint that is more the sign of the times was that this product was made in China, I do try to avoid buying anything Chinese but to do this I would have to stop buying most things as China seems to have corner at the market on nearly everything. Overall, a very good product and I am extremely pleased with it as you can see I have given it five stars

This vacuum has changed the game for me, it gets even the finest dust (flour fine) out of carpets, simply amazing! its great that it comes with 2 batteries so when one has ran out you can easily swap it for another, and the cordless feature is so handy, it makes all the difference not having a long cord trailing behind you, or somehow getting in front and being sucked up the vacuum! the life span of each battery is quite good too, I can easily vacuum my whole house upstairs and downstairs on just 1 battery (for reference I have a medium sized 4 bed) which shows how good this vacuum is. The interchangeable heads are also useful, especially when doing the stairs, or high corners, the own downside of this vacuum is that I've found it a bit heavy to use when doing the whole house, so I have to keep swapping my arms when using it so they don't start to ache, however id that's more of a me problem with not being very strong haha! the more I use it, the more muscle I will build and eventually it won't feel as heavy, however for the older generation who buy this, I would definitely recommend taking this into consideration, as I know for sure my nana wouldn't have a chance with this vacuum, especially if you're shorter too (5ft or less).

This vacuum cleaner is really handy for light cleaning. It does that job well. I like that it stores tidily and has two batteries. I like the lights on the brush head - way more useful than I expected. Buyers need to watch for three things. Firstly it is a little top heavy, so once you remove the brush head it becomes a little unwieldy. Second is blockages. The intake from the brush head is narrower than mains powered vacuum cleaners. So you need to watch for crud getting stuck in the right-angle bend behind the brush head. I discovered a UK two pence coin exactly fits the passage and everything piled up behind it. Time Team would have have had a field day with that one. Thirdly, the brush head does not really cut hair. My daughter's flowing locks found their way into the bush head to wind themselves like wire about the main brushes. No amount of fancy cutting devices were going to stop that. So you will need to cut out hair from time to time. However, the ease of use, neatness and 2 batteries really shine for this machine. So, happy to give it 4 stars. Knocking one off for the poor human hair management.

This is easily the best vacuum cleaner I have owned. It out performs anything I’ve used before, my carpets are brighter and it is able to reach into awkward corners and under furniture, I like the way it bends in the middle to reach low under tables etc. The anti-hair wrap really works, a bonus if someone in your household has long hair! Having two batteries is great and I like that the batteries charge remotely so the actual vacuum can be put away (it folds down really small for storage). It comes with plenty of attachments for extra cleaning tasks. My only comment is that it doesn’t come with a soft brush but the upholstery attachment is very effective. It is so easy to use that I find I am using it more frequently. The ‘headlights’ are great in dark corners.

I am thrilled with this Shark vacuum - it's very light, easy to move around on any surface and has plenty of accessories for cleaning in odd places (under furniture, on top of wardrobes, removing dust from shelves of books & CDs, etc.). The 2 batteries each hold enough charge for cleaning the whole house (8 rooms + bathroom & kitchen). The only minor downside is the capacity of the dust container (the part you have to empty) - I have to empty the container after each room (compared to my big heavy Dyson which is capacious enough for the whole house) but the sheer convenience of the Shark actually makes cleaning a pleasurable experience - I don't say that lightly 'cos I hate housework!! Incidentally, unlike some reviewers, I have had absolutely no problem with "hair wrap" - both my wife and I have longish hair, which clogs up the Dyson very quickly. The Shark is perfect for this ... not a single hair to be seen!

The Shark is AMAZING. It's not nearly as powerful as my previous hoover but it does the job fine, and without scaring the cat or the baby because its so quiet! I can hoover underneath the bed without bending down, I can hoover the table top after crafting without any hassle, I can wander round the house without changing the plugs, I can hoover with a bad back because it's tiny! I am very pleased. Only downside is the short battery life, so I would recommend getting the dual battery. Also, my long hair was wrapped around the brush, but it was easy to remove and didn't seem to effect the suction power. All in all I'm impressed. I'll never want to go back to a heavy mains-powered machine again.

Yes, I think this is the vacuum I've been waiting for all my life. Sorry to get all excited about an inanimate object that sucks up up dirt (no, not my husband) but I am genuinely so pleased with this. I've been put off by the price till now but managed to get it for over £100 cheaper than elsewhere on Amazon for some reason. Where do I start....It seems robust and well put together and came with lots of handy gadgets and a power charging cradle for the two batteries . A moron could put it together too..well this moron managed it no problems anyway. I've got Rheumatoid Arthritis and I haven't found it hard to use the buttons to get the components apart. Also not having to keep your finger on the power button constantly is a bonus. It is slightly heavier than I thought it would be for a stick vacuum but it really isn't a problem. The suction is great, especially in boost mode. The battery seems to last for ages , well over 30 minutes even if mainly in boost mode. I actually found it difficult to run it down to zero as recommended the first time I used it. I left my stairs without cleaning deliberately for a week and the first picture attached is the amount of filth the Shark picked up using the motorised pet tool attachment ...yes , I know, disgusting. The second picture is the what the pet tool looked like immediately after cleaning up all that dirt and hair. Not a single hair wrapped around the blades or rollers. I just cannot believe it. I should say that I have long hair and my two black cats could shed hair for their country if it was an Olympic sport. So far , so good. I've only had it a little while but if anything happens to change my opinion, I'll report back.

Ho acquistato l’aspirapolvere Shark IZ251 Borgogna senza sacchetto per sostituire il vecchio modello di casa e sono rimasta molto soddisfatta. Il design compatto e moderno in color borgogna lo rende elegante e facile da manovrare, mentre la tecnologia senza sacchetto elimina la necessità di continui acquisti di ricambi, rendendolo più pratico e conveniente. Tra i punti di forza principali c’è la potenza di aspirazione: la Shark IZ251 raccoglie efficacemente polvere, peli di animali e detriti su pavimenti duri, tappeti e moquette. Il sistema di filtraggio è ottimo per chi soffre di allergie, perché trattiene polveri sottili e allergeni, migliorando la qualità dell’aria in casa. La gestione è semplice e intuitiva: il serbatoio si svuota facilmente senza sporcare le mani, e il peso leggero dell’aspirapolvere lo rende maneggevole anche durante pulizie rapide o in zone difficili da raggiungere come sotto i mobili. Il cavo di alimentazione è abbastanza lungo da permettere ampia libertà di movimento senza dover cambiare continuamente presa. Come piccolo difetto, segnalo che su tappeti molto spessi può essere necessario passare più volte per ottenere una pulizia completa, e il serbatoio, se pieno di polvere molto fine, va svuotato regolarmente per mantenere la potenza di aspirazione ottimale. Suggerimenti pratici d’uso: svuotare il serbatoio dopo ogni utilizzo intenso, pulire regolarmente il filtro per preservare efficienza e durata, e utilizzare gli accessori inclusi per angoli, scale e imbottiti. Perfetto anche per chi ha animali domestici, grazie alla capacità di raccogliere peli senza intasare il filtro. In sintesi, lo Shark IZ251 Borgogna senza sacchetto è un aspirapolvere potente, pratico e maneggevole. Combina design elegante, aspirazione efficace e facilità di manutenzione, rendendolo ideale per chi cerca un prodotto affidabile per la pulizia quotidiana di tutta la casa. Consigliato a chi desidera efficienza, comodità e pulizia profonda senza l’ingombro dei sacchetti tradizionali.
