Never again have the hassle of lugging your bulky vacuum up the stairs or unplugging it when it doesn't quite reach the far side of the room.
There's no doubt that a cordless vacuum makes cleaning your floors a lot less of a chore - and Shark's Anti Hair Wrap design has everything you could want and more.

The wand also cleverly bends under furniture and hard-to-reach places, which is pretty game-changing in itself.

The vacuum can also transform into a handheld device at the touch of a button to easily clean stairs, soft furnishings and surfaces.
The rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery has an up to 40 minute run time and the vacuum can be folded down for compact storage. What more could you want?

"I now look forward to hoovering up as it's so much easier. It is really good at picking up my cat's fur that I used to struggle to get up. It is also so easy to use - it is a tad heavy but I'm getting used to it now."
"I can honestly say that this is the best vacuum cleaner I have ever purchased. The concept of being able to clean the floors in one fell swoop is one of the bonuses of this vacuum cleaner. I have a cat and when it casts its winter coat, it usually leaves hairs everywhere. I was amazed to find how well the anti hair wrap function works, as my floors are spotless and I don't have the tedious job of cutting off hairs and other things wrapped round the roller. "
"It's so easy to use and with the battery it means that you don't have to move the plug from room to room. I recharge it after I am finished using it, so that it is always ready to go. I would recommend this Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Stick Vacuum Cleaner with Flexology and TruePet (Single Battery) IZ201UKB to anyone as it takes the hard work out of cleaning. I also love the way the brush can go under furniture. This vacuum cleaner is truly a marvel. I would recommend it to anyone."
"Bought this cordless vacuum having heard reviews about performance and lightweight handling. We have been using it for a few months and it is a revelation, quiet, light and powerful. Would recommend for anyone."
