The Shark PowerDetect Cordless Prevents Hair-Wrap for Easier Cleaning

Instead of having to use scissors or a seam ripper to cut out wrapped hair from your vacuum's floorhead, the Shark PowerDetect Cordless can vacuum fur and long hair without it getting tangled in the first place.

So, to see this powerful cordless vacuum on offer for just $299.99 is exceptional value. It's already an affordable pick at full price, but considering its performance isn't too far off the best Dyson vacuums, some of which cost more than twice as much, seeing it on offer for below $300 is huge.

You'll be hard-pressed to find a better vacuum at that price.

Our seasoned product reviewer, James Holland, tested the PowerDetect Cordless in his busy household, and wrote, 'I have yet to see any hair wrapped in there and have been using this vacuum in a household with a cat, two dogs, two women with long hair, and three men, two of whom have plenty of facial hair.'

And not only does the vacuum avoid hair wrap, but it's one of the best cordless vacuums we've tested when it comes to cleaning performance.

'In a room where our cat likes to spend most of her time, it pulled up a good amount of hair out of the carpet that I didn’t even see,' James wrote in his review.

Also, I know from experience that this seemingly small task of removing tangled hair from the vacuum can lead to much deeper frustration down the line. Knowing that the vacuum itself will need to be cleaned after every session means it's easier to put off the chore to prevent getting your hands dirty.

And while it can seem easier to ignore the growing roll of hair, doing so would mean you're not getting the most out of your vacuum. Wrapped hair puts stress on the vacuum's motor, often causing a significant loss in suction and potential long-term damage.

With enough hair wrapped around the floorhead's roller, it can stop spinning or go slower, impacting how well it cleans.

The Shark PowerDetect Cordless banishes that worry, but it has plenty of other features we love, including its flexible wand, which allows you to clean under furniture such as beds without straining your back. It also has a multi-surface floorhead that passes from carpets to hard floors seamlessly.

Like the Dyson V15 Detect before it, the Shark PowerDetect Cordless can sense the surface you're vacuuming and how dirty it is, to automatically adjust the suction to the most appropriate level.

It's yet another addition from Shark to make cleaning more effortless, and one of the many reasons why we love this vacuum, especially at such a generously discounted price.

The Shark PowerDetect Cordless is on offer for $299.99 from SharkNinja.
