“I’m extremely impressed, this is a well made bit of kit that’s well designed.”
A Shark cordless vacuum that’s said to be the ‘ultimate’ for tackling pet hair has plummeted to half price. This particular model is on sale at Amazon, which has knocked £210 off the Shark Stratos Anti Hair Wrap Plus Pet Pro Cordless Vacuum.
Originally priced at £429.99, this cordless vacuum is up for grabs at £219.99, a total saving of 49%. This makes Amazon £30 cheaper than SharkNinja’s own discounted price of £249.99 (was £429.99) for the same model.
This particular Shark Stratos features Anti Hair Wrap Plus technology, which the brand claims delivers its ‘best ever’ hair pick-up. With this, both long and short hair is removed from the brush-roll while it cleans, which Shark says makes it the ‘ultimate’ vacuum for homes with pets.
The Stratos also features Clean Sense IQ, which increases suction automatically when it detects dirt for up to 50% more pick-up, according to Shark. Along with the DuoClean floorhead with two motorised brush-rolls, the cordless vacuum can ‘glide’ across different floor types from carpet to hard floors.
The floorhead is also designed with LED headlights to illuminate fine dust and dirt that may otherwise get missed, while its Flexology wand bends so users can easily clean beneath furniture. This also allows the vacuum to fold down for compact and convenient storage.

Amazon has knocked £210 off Shark’s Stratos Anti Hair Wrap Plus Pet Pro Cordless Vacuum.
The Shark Stratos comes with a removable battery that can run for 60-minutes in ECO mode and recharged either on or off the vacuum. Another key selling point of the vacuum is its cartridge system protects against bad odours caused by pet hair and dust.
It also comes with several accessories, including a motorised pet tool, crevice tool, and multi-surface tool. Elsewhere, Dyson has knocked £100 off its V8 Cyclone cordless vacuum, touted as the brand’s most powerful V8 ever.
This model is reduced to £249.99 (was £349.99) and comes with a free car cleaning kit worth £55. For a more affordable vacuum, Yimbly has reduced the Breeins Upright Vacuum Cleaner Ueu620 to £69 (was £89), which is specially designed for homes with pets thanks to its included pet turbo brush.
As for the Shark Stratos Anti Hair Wrap Plus Pet Pro Cordless Vacuum, more than 680 Amazon customers have rated this model and awarded it an average 4.3-star rating.
“I’m extremely impressed, this is a well-made bit of kit that’s also well designed,” one shopper said. “It comes with multiple heads which work well, is nicely compact, and charges with a simple plug that is quite quick. It’s ideal for stairs, and the Flexi arm is a neat idea that does make it quite easy to vacuum underneath couches and beds, which is pretty versatile. It’s also pretty easy to empty.”
Another said, “I bought this because I have two dogs and it’s really important to have a vacuum that’s good at picking up hair. It’s also light and portable, so it’s very easy to vacuum the stairs and the upstairs. It also includes an air freshener, which leaves a pleasant, clean smell as you vacuum. Although it’s expensive, I think it’s worth the money.”
However, despite their five-star review, the same reviewer questioned the Shark’s battery life, adding: “The only question I have is about the battery, as it seems to go down relatively quickly.”
Nevertheless, another five-star review says: “Better than Dyson, for the money you can’t beat it. Works perfectly and the added accessories are a neat bonus for tricky tasks. Folding away for easy storage the Stratos looks stylish.
“Great power and a lightweight design make it easy to use around the house and on the stairs. Have been using for a few months and it has performed flawlessly.”
