Shark Corded Upright Vacuum Cleaner 1.1L with Anti Hair Wrap Technology, Pet Model, LED Headlights, Lift-Away, Anti-Allergen, 8m Cord, 750W, 3 Attachments inc Pet Tool, Rose Gold, NZ690UKT

I can honestly say this is the best upright vacuum cleaner I've ever purchased and I've gone through a TON of vacuums both in my personal and professional life! It's compact despite sporting a 1 litre capacity collection drum. It's easy to assemble straight out of the box. It stores well, which is essential in a small, one person flat like mine. It's surprisingly powerful, made easy work of six months of accumulated dog hairs along with other filth and detritus. Most importantly for myself is that it's quite lightweight and easy to manoeuvre and although it boasts powerful suction, one doesn't feel as though one is fighting to control the unit, unlike some other models. Using it didn't set off a flare up with my arthritis and - perhaps the best feature - the nice, long wand attachment/ handle meant I didn't have to bend almost double just to use the thing. As a man standing not far off seven feet tall that's a rarity in most floor cleaning products, I can tell you! My only gripes are that I think it's going to require frequent emptying, despite the aforementioned collection drum, and the automatic hair removal on the brushes doesn't seem to work quite as well as advertised. All in all a great vacuum cleaner. One of the best in my experience and opinion but by no means perfect. Well worth the price.

I've got a cat, a indoor cat that sheds year round. I've had many hovers that claim the world, pick up all dirt, pet hair, solve complex equations and solve my love problems. But they always fail and always only do a sub par job. Decided to be adult and invest in a good hover, a hover that many claim and show can actually do the job it lists. Going through just 3 rooms of my flat, I filled the entire waste container. Something other hovers would take 2/3 full cleans before being full. My carpet that I thought had turned from white to off white due to age, had its white come back again. The shark removed all the eyars of stuck down, walked over pet hairs that I thought was a colour change, and did it effortlessly. Can't belive the performance from such a small and light unit. Has to be some 8th level magic enchantment causing it to be so strong in cleaning yet so light and manoeuvrable. I'm impressed and beyond happy, it's a hover and I'm exited about it. I'm happy to clean again because I actually feel like I am cleaning. This is going to help any allergies, loose pet hairs in the air, dust, cat litter, Ash, dropped food, discarded hopes and dreams. It'll clean up the lot. I send the message out to all that are thinking about getting a shark. Take the plunge and get one, ita the first of all my hovers that has actually done a complete job as advertised. If you are curious, find a friend that has one and borrow for a week and test, I am confident you'd buy one after a test. Best hover ever, I can see it in my dreams cleaning up my life now.

This review is written after 5 months of busy domestic use. Before buying the Shark, our goto brand had always been Dyson. But our vacuum cleaner had died and this was on special and so we took a chance. OMG!!! Although this is a corded vacuum it comes with a very generous length of lead meaning you dont have to keep on moving the plug for socket to socket. Being lightweight it's easy and therfore safe to carry up and down the stairs. The motorised brush unit is "anti hair wrap" and despite its simplicity it is surpriseingly effective. This particular model comes with Lift-Away which makes it ideal for doing the stairs, cupboards, vehicle interiors etc. The unit is very powerful and you do HAVE to use the min/max selector when on carpet. If you leave in on max do not be surprised if you find yourself having a hard time pushng it. This model came with the car detail accessory kit which is perfect for getting into all those nooks and crannies that you find in cars, especially down the side of the seats. The dust cup is simple to empty and filter kit is easy to clean. After 5 months of busy domestic use, the ONLY negative I can think of is that the hose does not stretch as much as we would like. And because of the units lightweight, it often results in the vacuum being pulled over by the slightest pull on the hose. In conclusion, we are very happy with our Shark vacuum and will be sticking with the brand for the future.

I have hard floors downstairs and love my older anti hair wrap Shark as it not only picks up my long hair without leaving a nest on the brush to cut out, but also picks up seeds from my budgies cage really easily without them pinging about all over the place. I decided to buy another Shark so the old one could stay upstairs so in December 2022 I bought the anti hair wrap pet model NZ690UKT for downstairs for the brilliant price of £179!! On receiving it I realised that it was much lighter and appeared less solid than my previous Shark, but that didn't bother me and on trying it the suction on it was as amazing. At first I thought it wasn't a Lift Away as the button for that operation is in a different place to my old one, at the bottom rather than at the top, but it is and it works brilliantly for the stairs as my old one does 😀 I love it; as it's so light it's easier to manoeuvre than the old one which helps when you're not as young as you feel lol. The only problem that irritates me is that the power cord is half way down the machine on the right hand side so when holding the handle with my favoured right hand, it is really hard to juggle with the cord as it keeps getting caught up in the front of the machine but if I don't hold the cord it keeps getting hoovered up which is dangerous. It's hard to explain but try it and you'll understand if you're right handed. I really think this should be advertised as a left handed vacuum, my Mum was left handed and she would have loved this! Back in the day power cords came out at the bottom/back of vacuums instead of at the side presumably to cater for both handedness and were much easier to use. So all in all it's a great vacuum, and for the price I would definitely buy this again. A few annoying things about it, a bit more thought to the cord design maybe would have helped but all in all it's a great addition to my cleaning arsenal. The best bit is that it's so light my 4 year old Grandson can help me out sometimes, result! 😀

We received our Shark vac yesterday and I put it through its paces. I had assumed our house was clean but this machine dredged dust deep out of the carpet that I had no idea was there. It was like fine sand which was astonishing. I hadn’t realised how dusty our carpets were and I’d only just shampooed them! It is so powerful it almost lifts the carpet off the floor! We also have two dogs that shed. Some vacs don’t always pick up the hairs but this machine did no bother. Other points I like are it comes packed in card and paper. All fully recyclable packaging which is fantastic. Other manufacturers have a lot to learn from Shark in this regard! The Vac comes with a 5 year warranty which is unusual for most manufacturers and is a definite vote of confidence for the quality. Was easy to register from a QR code in the booklet. Product build is good. Plastics are solid. The unit when running is quiet. The whole vac is light and manoeuvrable. Includes a light on the front for ease to see into dark corners. All good features. Also easy to assemble without tools (just clips together) My only slight criticism is the cord isn’t retractable but in fairness those mechanisms do break easily from experience. It also comes with three decent tools but no onboard places to clip these so need to be stored separately. Overall though on first impression this machine is pretty good and the power is immense!!

I have a husband, child and furboy who sheds 24/7 add into that OCD which gets triggered by mess, I need a good hoover. After trying Dyson, Vax, Hoover and most other brands I wanted to give the Shark lift away a go. Quality vacuum and it comes with tools that are useful. The suction is great and having lights on the front is excellent for showing bits on the floor. Easy to use on hard floor, carpets and rugs. I hoovered the rug just after using the Dyson and the fluff and dust that was picked up was shocking. Light and easy to use I would recommend this to anyone. Long cord, easy to go from carpet to hard floor, holds a lot and easy to empty. Versatile as can be used on all flooring and cleans the stairs with ease. Excellent value and with a 5 year guarantee what's not to love. I would say its the best vacuum I have bought and I have bought a lot lol. :0)

The Shark Corded Upright Vacuum Cleaner is an absolute workhorse that makes cleaning a breeze, especially in homes with pets. The anti-hair wrap technology is a standout feature — it does an amazing job of keeping the brush roll tangle-free, even after tackling carpets covered in pet fur. The pet tool attachment is a lifesaver for sofas and stairs, leaving everything spotless and fur-free. The lift-away function is incredibly convenient for cleaning hard-to-reach areas like ceilings, curtains, and under furniture. Despite its powerful 750W motor, it’s surprisingly quiet and easy to manoeuvre, thanks to its ergonomic design and swivel steering. The LED headlights are a brilliant touch, illuminating hidden dust and debris, so nothing gets missed. With a generous 8m cord and a 1.1L dust cup, it offers plenty of range and capacity for larger spaces without constant emptying or re-plugging. The anti-allergen seal is a bonus for households with allergy sufferers, keeping dust and allergens contained. The rose gold finish adds a stylish touch, but it’s the performance that truly shines. If you’re looking for a vacuum that handles pet hair, deep cleans carpets, and transitions seamlessly to other tasks, the Shark NZ690UKT is a fantastic choice. It’s a cleaning powerhouse that makes you look forward to vacuuming (well, almost!).

This vacuum cleaner has exceeded my expectations. Not only does it have strong suction power, but it is also easy to maneuver around furniture. The attachments make it versatile for cleaning various surfaces, and the dust bin is easy to empty and clean. The long cord allows me to move around different rooms without constantly unplugging and re-plugging the vacuum. It is on the bulkier side, but you can detach it to clean specific areas, which is quite useful. Overall, I am extremely pleased with this vacuum cleaner and would highly recommend it to anyone in the market for a n vacuum cleaner. Its performance has made cleaning my home much easier and more efficient. I appreciate the thought and design that went into making this vacuum user-friendly and practical. It’s a good investment.

Love my Shark vacuum. Didn't know that it came in a UK wall plug but that was fine, a mistake on my behalf. I just got a travel adaptor for other countries to an Australian power socket and it is all good. Suction power is AMAZING. Weight is to be expected. Only thing about manoeuvrability is that where the other attachments are placed gets in the way of moving around when vacuuming and going side-to-side. But that is a MINOR issue. Not a real issue at all! Totally worth it and would highly suggest for those with long hair dogs (I have 2 long haired Border Collies myself).

This item was purchased through Amazon Australia and was shipped from the UK. It was expected that it would have an Australian power plug, not a UK one. Was told to return it and get a refund when a $10 power adapter could have fixed the problem.. and that we had to purchase it from someone else.. Great work Amazon

Unable to use. Power plug not compatible with power outlets in Australia.
