I've been recommended a Shark hoover as I have three white dogs that shed for England.

Does anyone have a Shark specifically the pet version and are they worth it?

Thanks

Only unreasonable if you can’t afford it!

I spent £400 on a Dyson and have never regretted it, so long as you're not getting into debt then get it!

Shark LiftAway excellent. If you wait sometimes they are on offer on Amazon. I also have a little white dog!

@Pippinsqueak no dogs but two indoor cats and one sheds furs all year round. It does indeed, nice and light too!

I bought the DuoClean and the handheld vac this week
I bought it direct and paid £279 for both inc free delivery and on the website I opted for monthly payments of £55 for 5 months

It’s amazing much better than my dyson
I have a big dog that lives inside and it’s been great at picking up her hairs

No not unreasonable as long as you can comfortable afford it.
Maybe still debating the shark or the dysentery, our last Dyson was brilliant but we have friends with the shark who say it's amazing.

Oh my god to last post. We are still deciding between Shark and Dyson not dysentery !!!

Amazon had a shark for sale yesterday for under £200. Possibly £165 as I nearly bought one but managed to restrain myself

I've had my shark two years, purchased in the black Friday deals, it is as good today as it was the day I unboxed it.

I bought the shark in the summer for about £250.
Was the best household purchase I have ever made.
Light weight, effective, quick

'It's been life changing, as in our life is cleaner'
