I’m 62 year old woman who has hated mopping, ever since I was a kid. I watched your video and decided to purchase the shark Hydro vac cordless 3 in 1, to my surprise I will never be without this product ever again in my life.❤❤❤

[@VacuumWars]

That is so good to hear! Thank you!!

[@deztroy-h5i]

I heard they tend to fail. How has it held up for the last 8 months?

[@Mama_Bear524]

I’m also wondering how it’s held up. I have gone through way too many mops in the last 20 years it’s super frustrating. All of them seem to be for VERY light use. Any pressure or harder jobs they break. I need a good and sturdy one I can use for many years. Ugh. So any updates?

[@briancoulomb]

Excellent review and thank you for keeping it brief but very thorough, organized and relevant. I have one issue with this vacuum which might be a problem for all of these styles of cleaners. The clean solution reservoir needs to be empty in order to mix the solution again. This means you have to use until empty which becomes a problem when using the cleaning mode or you dump the reservoir and refill which wastes expensive solution. They don’t have a ratio for mixing a container ahead of time. I talked to tech support and they didn’t have an answer but said they would escalate. I’m going to fill and measure the reservoir to see how much water it holds and then multiply that by the number of advertised refills that the concentrate makes and add it all to one container for easy refills.

[@delfordchaffin5617]

Dump the partial mix into some other container and when you do that a few times, put that back into the reservoir?

[@briancoulomb]

@@delfordchaffin5617 Not a bad idea. We ended up mixing our own container. It’s 1 1/3 cup of water per dose of cleaner. So 9 1/3 cups mixed with the 7x refill (315 mil) or 25 1/3 cups water with the 19x refill (1 liter).

I recently purchased the Shark hydrovac cordless. Cords just get in the way on my main level LR, kitchen, DR. First run today, I was happy with the job on my LVT floor. It did freshen the area rugs, but didn't remove a few small stains. I bought the Shark cordless as that was the main obstacle with the Bissell. The only downside is it doesn't get as close to the wall as I would like to see, especially for kitchen floor, but that appears to be a problem with all products. Self clean worked great.

[@VacuumWars]

Thanks for sharing your experience here!

[@greggf.1393]

I just ordered mine, they are on major sale right now. I paid $199 before tax, they usually run $360 before taxes

[@MaryB_TN]

Your videos always help me a lot. I wasn't sure between the Crosswave and Hydrovac, but you've convinced me to get the Hydrovac. Also cheaper than the Crosswave for corded model.

[@VacuumWars]

Glad I could help!

[@eriksalas5050]

This was a great video, really informative, although not official specs but really helpful. I wanted to know about the differences in specs between the cordless and corded version sharks, particularly the RPM, as seen on one of your previous videos (Best hard floor cleaners 2022) the bissell models seemed to have up to 4000 RPM simply because they were the only corded models compared to their compitition in the video, it makes me wonder if that is the case for the corded version of the shark, witch to me would be considered better over the cordless version shark.

[@jessjms1181]

Lightweight (this is huge for me), performs well on stain test, cordless. I need to know whether it handles hair well and is it easy to clean. If it had a self clean and dry function that would be the cherry on the top.

[@johnslife4993]

Could you get the Tineco S5 Steam Cleaner and put it against this

Please do a review on the shark canister vac

[@billdemarais7254]

I still had to scrub my kitchen floor down after using this. But it still seems to do a good job on my area rugs ..I'm like 75% satisfied. I would return it but I would have to pay postage and a restocking fee. So if you do purchase it don't get it from the Shark website. Get it from a store

[@mrhomegrow]

Yeah I have one too and honestly if you just scrub the floor once and then hit it with this every couple days it keeps the floor pretty clean but I definitely had to do an old school clean to get my floors up to snuff

[@GrimThreeper1776]

It would be nice to see companies just make these cordless vacuums with removable batteries. That solves everyone's problem with batteries burning out and having to warranty the entire unit which is more in trash in landfills if it's toast and also the run times wouldn't matter much at that point because you could buy extra batteries and just change it out if it does mid cleaning. The non removable batteries are the biggest complaint I see from everyone because they keep going out.

[@kevinmunz]

Curious to see how these vac mops compare to steam mops for liquid or dried on stains. A vinyl floor test might be good as well since so many people have them now and they need to be mopped regularly. A vacuum steam mops seems like the next logical step really now that I think about it.

[@l.l8303]

[@jdub0919]

I purchased my Tineco Floor One S3 in January 2022. Loved it!!! Kept it super clean! Yesterday, the motor in the battery part stopped working. Not even a year old, I contacted Tineco. Couldn't get thru. Contacted Amazon & they couldn't get thru. Tried Tineco again and got thru. They wanted videos emailed to them and said they would send me an email with shipping label to respond with videos. I was fine with that. Said their warranty needs me to send the vac to them and they will fix it which could take 6-8 weeks then send back. I asked for a copy of the warranty. The rep couldnt find it. I never received any emails. I called Amazon and they are refunding me aside from $82 restocking fee, sending me a shipping label and I am sending back. I love that cleaner but Tineco does NOT have good customer service at all.

[@FutureTechNation]

I had an issue with my ecovacs 930 which is made by the same company. It was still under warranty but after days of dealing with their costumer service I did not get it fixed. Could not agree more. They make great performers but suck at the back end with service.

[@lettea4600]

This review is definitely biased, check his other review of multiple vacuums side by side and compare to the stats here, this is the worst one. The numbers he showed in this video doesn’t add up to the other video. I think he’s paid by shark on this one.

[@harrymoore3719]

I was surprised by your Bissell 1984 cordless vacuum review recently as it looks identical to Gtech's AirRam. Bissell don't seem to sell the 1984 in the UK - is it possible they've licensed it from Gtech? I don't think you've reviewed any Gtech's but they're a UK based company and becoming very popular over here. We love ours! Would be interested in a comparison between Gtech vs Bissell 1984 to get to the bottom of this.

[@MarkAgueVacuums]

Gtech sold the airram in the US for about a year when it was first introduced but then licensed it to bissell likely because gtech isn’t a well known name over here, from what I can tell the Bissell model is similar to the gtech airram k9.

I'm real skeptical about shark vacuums. There's a vacuum repair guy here on KZbin -Performance Reviews - that rails on Shark for their terrible quality. Maybe they work really well but the dependability is questionable as he claims to get tons of repair orders for Shark products. Would be cool if you guys could do a collab to talk about vacuums and such. Maybe a podcast convo style format.

[@seanp1602]

I’ve had lots of issues with orecks, meile, Dyson, dust devil and Hoovers. The sharks I’ve owned gave me the least issues. I currently have an F80 cordless and the corded lift away vertex. I wonder how many “quality” issues are related to misunderstanding the features and/or misusing them. Everyone has their “brand” and just like sports, they wear their jerseys with pride.

Is this the one you would recommend over the Tineco S3? I’ve got 3 dogs and the weather here is wet a lot of the time so they drag in a ton of mud. I can swiffer the floor 3 times a day and still have a completely muddy floor at the end of the day, so I’m looking for something that is a little more simple that stock piling 50 swiffer pads. Budget isn’t a super huge concern, especially if I can get used, but not really wanting to spend hizero money.

You should always go over your floor with a dry vaccum before you use a vac mop. Otherwise your vac mop is going to be a disgusting dumpster full of sewage.

[@sergeigarcia186]

[@sergeigarcia186]

@@Frenchfrys17we already do, and it's no more unpleasant than if we vacuumed first. We have a tineco ifloor 3 and the self clean cycle does a fantastic job of cleaning the brush roll and underside. The dirty water tank has a strainer that catches most gunk and makes it so it isn't any harder to clean than if we hadn't vacuumed first. This might be a bigger issue if we picked up big messes like yogurt and wet food, but we only use it for daily maintenance cleaning. So it's always dirty with standard dirt and the occasional pet hair. Having said that, it'd be nice if there were models better with pet hair.

[@Frenchfrys17]

@@sergeigarcia186 Well I don't see any combs or anti tangle fins on vac mops yet, so I would just buy the one with the widest brushroll.

[@chinatownchaosog]

Thank you for this review. I decided to purchase the corded version, so I didn't have to deal with battery life. The cord was really no trouble. The cleaning solution smells great too. A tip for new buyers, I'd run the machine on the carpet setting for a couple minutes, so the roller really wettens up. It took my machine a bit to get going, but it did the job. My hardwood floors felt much better compared to mopping and had a sheen to them. I did leave a nice scent with an area rug I tried it on, and it seemed to do a decent job of cleaning surface grime. The only downside is that it leaves an inch or so from the walls, so it doesn't quite get up to the edge. I also wish its handle lowered more while still making contact with the floor so I could get under furniture. Ultimately, I'm very happy with it, and I'm looking forward to using it again.

[@T2_Sug]

Do you still use the cleaning solution offered by shark or do you use an alternative?

[@Katy809RD]

I don't like cordless stuff, it's a pain. Cordless are super convinient but every time the battery dies before I finish what I am doing, ugh.. and then waiting for it to charge again? forget it

[@chinatownchaosog]

@@T2_Sug So sorry! I didn't get a notification about your reply. I've been buying the Shark solution. I did try Bissel's carpet spot cleaner once but it created too many bubbles. The roller frothed up and the collection container had too many bubbles in it. I also wonder if you can use other solutions especially now that Bed Bath and Beyond is gone. If anything, maybe the Crosswave solution will work. It's essentially the same machine. I definitely would not use any other household cleaning products in it!

@@Katy809RD My sentiments exactly. I have too much floor for batteries to die on me. 🪫

You still have to bend down and physically clean up some spots- I’m a cleaning lady over 30 years experience - the basic go mops you can find at Walmart and other big stores works just as well with same effort level- you physically just release the water/solution container - fill it up reconnect it and use the spray trigger in handle - the pads are washable and it came with a spare pad- works great!!

@@themikeroberts If they were leaving dirt then that green stuff wouldn't disappear. These do a better job than traditional mop and bucket. I have a robot scrubber that works similarly. Mine is impractical because I have to block it off everywhere, plus it gets stuck under my island, so I have to block that off w/ a bunch of objects too. Ends up being more work, so one of these is probably the best solution and will save my back alot.

[@Musket33]

Great review. We have owned the cordless Pro for almost a year now. We use it on tile floors. Our experience is as follows. Pros: It does a great job cleaning without over wetting floor, although some dried-on debris is left behind. The cleaning cycle works very well and allows us to only have to disassemble for cleaning about every other cycle. Cleanup is messy as expected but easy. Cons: The unit completely failed after about three months. The manufacturer sent a new power unit at no charge which I was able to install with little problem. If you "Google" this unit you will find this has been a frequent issue with the Shark. Recently, the unit quit working again due to an erroneous "tank empty" alert. With some help from KZbin videos, I was able to resolve the issue for now. Hopefully we can depend on no future failures. Conclusion: This vacuum is fit for purpose and cleans very well. I am hesitant to recommend it due to the failures we have experienced. At its price point I expect a more reliable product.

I would ask that every single review states where the vacuum is made. Many of us would like to avoid Chinese products when we can.

[@timmahoney2541]

I'm pretty sure the answer is no. It's just how it is designed - using smart tech to lightly lubricate the roller (no trigger needed) full-time. It just works better. Your always vacuuming, right? If you are concerned about the expense of solution, 'get a stick vac, or use the vac you've already got in your closet instead. They're cheaper. But they won't work as well on hard floors and area rugs for actual cleaning. (unless you want to mop or Swiffer too. 😎)

I’m looking for one right now but so far I saw one that you know it was manual, but it had pads that you couldn’t rewash and I thought that was a good idea, but after I saw this video and their video I realize the swiffer pro max or whatever it is with the disposable pads so far that’s where I’m really leaning towards.

Glad we could help!

I made my own with a paint roller and a cordless drill.. But not really

[@baratrion]

Did you find this better than the Tineco Floors then?

[@treasuresabound0062]

Here to check this same thing as I finally ordered the Tineco 5 last week upon vac wars recommendation - no second guessing - more research I guess

[@hisimagenme]

🤔 I've no idea what to think. I guess I'm still just not sold on vacuum wet vacs. It makes me nervous to mix. For a shop vac it's one thing, in my house...meh. But way to go Shark for doing a decent job, and vacuum wars, as always excellent review! Smiles and blessings...

'vacuum wet vacuum' 😐 I feel people around you frequently hear 'My PIN number'.

[@aval5098]

What makes you nervous? If you don’t mind me asking?

[@debbiew263]

I still use my regular vacuum as well. However the Hydrovacs provide the ability of doing both jobs at once. The "vacuum only" doesn't get all the dust off the hard surface floor. I'm loving the Shark hydrovac cordless with self clean.

How does it handle dog hair pickup?

[@johnbrett8788]

Do they clean porcelain tiles

[@brendanflaig5429]

Can you review the shark wandvac self empty vacuum please? I’d really like to get it for my mom for Christmas but I want to see a good review on it?

[@jasminebonilla2477]

Hi! I need help on deciding between Shark HydroVac vs. Bissell Crosswave Pet Pro Which one would you recommend? I’m a new homeowner trying to get a good deal for Cyber Monday! Appreciate your help thank you in advance🙏🏼

[@zenithstar11]

Me same

[@rodpjr21]

I bought this Shark Hydrovac, and I love it.

[@Apocalypz]

I'm an horrific person for asking this what with all the planning and time you spend, and I know I'll get flak but ... I do hope you come out with a 'Best of Robotic Vacuums of 2022' before December 2022. (My kid should *fingers crossed* move into his own place end of December based on his years of hard work, and I'd like to reward him with a long-lasting cleaning device.)

[@VacuumWars]

We really hope to, and we think we will. Thanks for the request.

[@grocerycard4455]

Great info and review as usual! Any chance you’ll do a review of the Tineco S5 Steam? It’s a corded model but I’m particularly concerned about cordless ones because A) Tinco batteries are not replaceable. B) I have 2000 sq ft of hard floors I wonder if the Shark Hydrovac battery is replaceable? As many have expressed, it would be sooo incredibly helpful to have a hair test.

[@elliegarcia7683]

Great review! Does this one do a good job in picking up cat hairs? And will you do a comparison video of this one and Roborock dyad? I do prefer Robotic vacuums but they cannot collect wet mess😐.
