Pets. I always have a good test for pet hair because my dog sheds so much and has a double coat, which means fur that is absolutely everywhere; even on my coffee table. I vacuum every day, and it’s still somewhere. Switch between carpet and hard floor modes at the touch of a button. Powerful LED headlights in the floorhead help to illuminate hidden dust. To test how the Shark VN601UK/T was able to cope with pet hair, we took a five-foot strip of carpet and combed actual dog hair into it. Then, we went over it with the upright vacuum cleaner for 20 seconds to see how much it was able to collect. The other benefit of the stretchy hose is that it is much better for trying to reach as many stairs as possible. Cleaning Power The warranty that comes with the Shark NV601UKT lasts for 5 Years. This is pretty impressive, and certainly a lot longer than the industry standard of one year. This warranty covers fault and breakdowns, as well as the cost of labour and parts.

Though, If your home has a good amount of hard floors then I would probably look at one of the models with Duoclean such as the NV700UK and if long hair causes you constant tangled in your vacuum the NZ801UK/T with Anti-Hair Wrap would be the way to go. At the touch of a button, simply lift the detachable canister away from the floorhead to create a lightweight, portable vacuum cleaner that can take you anywhere. Enjoy the freedom to vacuum your whole home in total comfort. From stairs to sofas and soft furnishings – you can even reach curtains, ceilings and light fittings with the wand. The filter is the classic foam one we see in pretty much every Shark vacuum cleaner, and it is just as massive and ready to absorb unnatural amounts of dust.

Secondly, They are also different colours, with the NV601UK being electric blue, and the NV601UKT a lovely shade of Bordeaux. One of the biggest benefits of a Shark vacuum cleaner is that it sports a fully sealed system in addition to the HEPA filter. This means that no air will escape from the machine and that those who have asthma and allergies will absolutely benefit from this.

The lift-away technology is the star feature and the one that really draws attention to the Shark NV601UKT. It transforms the machine to feel more like a cylinder vacuum. However, it does help that the hose is quite long at 2.15m. This gives a wider cleaning radius, and also made above floor vacuuming a lot easier, especially for someone who can never quite reach those high-up cobwebs. I was disappointed with the 8m cable that comes with the Shark NV601UKT. I did find myself unplugging more than I used to, and while it wasn’t a massive downside, it could have done with the extra length. We decided to perform our own weight test, just to make sure you get the most accurate information. The table below shows you how much it weighs with the tools on board as well as without them. Weight (Without Tools)

Maintaining your Shark vacuum cleaner doesn’t take a massive amount of time. The thing you need to watch out for is the brush bar becoming tangled with hair. (Unless you upgrade to another model that has Anti Hair Wrap technology, such as the NZ801UK/T or the AZ910UK\T The 2-in-1 Crevice and Dusting Tool, and this is great for reaching those high corners and difficult areas. I found that I could get into every nook and cranny in my kitchen with the crevice tool. The dusting brush is very gentle as well, which is ideal for bannisters and delicate areas, but also tabletops and other hard surfaces like counters. This pet model comes complete with a Pet Tool which is specially designed with a bristle brush to remove embedded hair from rugs, stairs, sofas, curtains and more. This pet model also includes a Pet Tool to remove embedded hair from rugs, stairs, sofas and upholstery with an air-driven bristle brush-roll. It comes in at 78dB, which is quieter than a lot of vacuum cleaners were before the EU legislation came into effect. It is quite pleasant to use and not too bothersome, especially with the extra padding provided by the filtration system.It was really easy to use and handle, but also did well cleaning the carpet on the stairs with the upholstery tool and the pet tool (I will talk about the latter in the next section). The power was great, and it was just a very simple job with no stress. Tired of finding pet hair everywhere? Whether it’s embedded in sofas or trapped in carpets, pet hair is hard to clean and can aggravate allergies.

I’m still waiting for a Shark that has this much-wanted feature.
