Review on ๐Ÿฆˆ Shark CH951 UltraCyclone Cordless Handheld Vacuum Cleaner by Ashutosh Takumatla

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Dog 10, Shark 5 suitable for hand vacuum cleaners

This cordless hand vacuum cleaner from Shark is a good all-rounder. He is touted as being particularly adept at cleaning animal hair. These are animal hairs that fall off a little, at least in the sample received here. Please see the photos accompanying this review. First I'll get the good out of the way. This is an incredibly comfortable, lightweight and easy to use cordless vacuum that makes using it as enjoyable as I can imagine for a device like this. It's easy to take to your truck for a quick dirt clean. We keep it in the closet in the hallway. As soon as one of us realizes that vacuuming is needed, we grab the machine and head back to a clean house almost immediately. As you can see from the pictures accompanying this review, we have a dog that sheds a lot. The shark had no problem removing hair from a hard floor, but I did have a problem removing that hair from the chamber where the vacuum cleaner stores what it picks up. The problem is two protrusions that interfere with airflow. They increase air velocity by reducing volume, but prevent collected hair from being removed. I have to use a pen or similar tool to dig out the tangled hair. Dog hair sticks to the filter with great force, making it tedious to remove. The black thing covered in hair in one of the photos is the filter. I was hoping that this vacuum cleaner would do a good job of cleaning the dog's pillow. The brush accessory does not take much work and, like the filter, is very difficult to clean. Please see photo. The supposedly self-cleaning electric brush was not included in the sample received here. As a portable, all-purpose device, this is the pinnacle, but it claims to be a specialized pet hair cleaner. As such, he fails on several fronts. This might work well if you get a motorized brush, but then you still have to struggle with cleaning the chamber and filter.

Pros
  • Vacuum cleaning and floor care
Cons
  • Only available in white
