Product Information

Even lower-priced Shark cordless models come with various features, such as LED headlights to show up stray dirt, a hinged cleaning tube, swappable batteries and the new anti-hair wrap that detangles the brush bar for you. They have a longer warranty, too. Shark models tend to be heavier than Dyson, but some of this weight is in the bulky floorhead, so you won’t necessarily feel the effects.

Automatic cleaning mode This means you don’t need to worry about switching settings when you move from carpet to hard floor. Shark is well known for making hugely flexible vacuum cleaners, and this continues through to its cordless models. As with previous Shark cordless vacuum cleaners, the IZ251UKT has Shark’s Flexology technology. This enables the wand to fold over in half, letting the vacuum stand up by itself so that you can easily wheel it into a cupboard for storage. It’s a shame the IZ251UKT isn’t able to stand up unaided when fully extended; the weight of the battery and bin tilt it over.

It’s important to note that when shopping for gadgets and technology products, it can be tempting to go for the lowest price possible.
