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. When looking at buying a vacuum cleaner one of the most important aspects to figure out is the type of floor the machine is designed for. Being clear on this will ensure that you end up with a vacuum cleaner that is well suited to your own needs.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).

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. Our Filtration Test Results 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. Afterwards, we also went over the carpet with a window blade to see what was left behind. You can see the results in the table below. Pet Hair ( Combed in Pet Hair over 4-foot area)
