Shark HZ400 Anti Hair Wrap Corded Stick Vacuum Cleaner Demonstration & Review

[@atheeromar223]

The homeowner just got The Perfect Client :-)

[@annw1395]

The carpets even looked clean; it wasn't like they looked worn or dirty. I was happy to see that the anti-hair wrap worked; I've heard some negative reviews about that feature. Great job!

[@ThePrime206]

hi Rodger this is mike. I just wanted to thank you for demonstrating that for me since I asked that question back in your unboxing video. I'm really impressed with how well that worked

[@Nails_By_Kimberlee]

Wow, those homeowners are going to be so happy when they see how much you cleaned out of those carpets!

[@fromstaciwithlove]

I love videos like this when people go to short term rentals and vacuum. 😆 I wish people would do it more often

[@JuJuBee223]

I highly recommen this vacuum too.. I just got a Shark DuoClean.. I used it on my 2 couches in the living room that looked fairly clean. I'd never vacuumed them because I didn't think they needed it. I was amazed/disgusted because it basically made two small piles of dust/hair the size of 2 small rabbits from the two couches. I used it all over the house and put it on cardboard so my whole family could be amazed/disgusted. It was so satisfying knowing all that was out of my furniture and carpets. Its funny I see your video and you did the same exact thing putting it all in a bag to see the accumulation.

[@Drakey_Fenix]

Videos like this are my favourite of yours. They are just very satisfying. More videos like this please!

[@SkullyRox]

I really want this! We have a Dyson V6 now- but I want an upgrade. It would be interesting to see you hoover over with the hoover that is in the home and then go over it with one you’ve brought with you. I seem to recall- either you, or someone else I’ve watched in the past- used to do this. And the stuff that still came up after already hoovering with the one vacuum was absolutely shocking!

[@jackweekes7566]

Skully Rox yes it was roger I’m sure as I remember a video like that too

[@SkullyRox]

Ended up getting one yesterday as was on offer and I could use my Nectar points against it in Argos. Not unboxed it yet though!

Great machine love it for my smaller house doent take up much room to store it. Bought it a week ago and im impressed with how much power it has.

[@thomasjohn4953]

I think I will be buying one of these. Never been keen on battery charged cleaners.

[@mandysimmons2769]

Sad? Feel better. LOL, This past summer I was so bored I made myself a heavy cardboard DOLLHOUSE. And in a few weeks I'm going to make a Barbie house from a refrigerator box. Nope not for "grandchildren" either both of them for myself. ( I had collected the dolls and furniture for it in my 20's since I could not afford that stuff growing up ). Covid's been so boring. I don't actually play with the dolls and stuff I just look at them. Did I mention that I am 57? LOL. I enjoyed ur video. Our 25 year old Orek bit the dust today and I need a new vacc'y and wanted one with a dust catcher that won't get hair wrap ( will get new kittens soon ).

[@bigdog2320]

Video is very good on use and cleaning of various parts. I had hoped in depth maintenance. I started to fit a new power cable, but to be honest this is NOT an easy fix. It would be good to remove a small panel to access power cord fixings, I've had to completely strip down the whole assembly, screws are security type. At present the parts are strewn over the kitchen table and I've given up, cannot get it back together. In these days extending the life of any goods to prevent dumping in refuse. I am a competent technical guy.

[@ibaisaic]

I sold this long ago, so there will be no further videos on this machine. Shark’s like many modern vacuum cleaners are not designed to be repaired, even a simple job like replacing a cable is made dry difficult for the average user, let alone someone who is used to repairing electrical items. If you can’t get it back together and still want the machine, Shark will sell you a complete motor base complete with lead for £70.

[@magdalenejeanne]

I dont even wanna know what youd pick up at my current house. Weve had a pretty horrible vacuum for years and I'm about to get a new one. I'm prepared to be horrified haha

[@billosborne3152]

No cleaning been done there for sometime, good video Roger.

[@ibaisaic]

Everywhere did look clean, but obviously the carpets were hiding some dirt.

[@Devondogsclub]

@@ibaisaic My friend is a professional cleaner and stayed at my house while I was away. ( I had shampooed my carpets and hovered them myself before I went away) Before she left she cleaned my whole house with my upright Hoover. When I returned I bought a Shark flexology battery vacuum and I cleaned my house and emptied it 5 times. The canister is fairly small but I was shocked at the amount of dirt the Shark found in what was a "clean" house. ( my house is fairly large) I love my Shark it's the best vacuum I have ever used and I have tried most of them.

[@jetech5986]

I bought a Shark vacuum from Costco after our Dyson Animal Ball died, it cleaned very well but after the third use the brush roller completely seized, so not impressed! I returned it and bought the bagless Miele dog & cat canister vac, which is awesome but 5x the price, I own two cordless Dyson V8’s for quick cleaning but both of the batteries died completely in ~13 months, under warranty it took a few months to get new batteries as they were back ordered, Dyson is dead to me, crappy support and they stop making parts for their older machines trying to force you to buy new. Anyway, hopefully your Sharks last longer than mine, it did a good job for the three weeks I owned it. 😩

[@JustWinBaby_23]

I’m not sure if you’ve come across the Zero-M UV700 model yet. It’s the Costco version in the US. I’d like to see your thoughts, and how it compares to this Zero-M Uplight review.

I feel like the idea is there but also the clunky is there as well. And there filters get soo bad very quick

How do you remove the handle on the Vax compact CDCW-CPXP carpet cleaner

[@ismayosolo6316]

Nice Apex up light

[@sadiporter2966]

I want to see a comparison of this and the regular anti hair-wrap vacuum cleaner, i want to know which is more powerful at vacuuming up things. I suspect this is less powerful in order to keep the weight of the handle down.

[@dmvac7500]

I love whole house vacuuming

[@plunder1956]

Was a most of that just loose fibres from that fairly deep new carpet? Almost every vacuum cleaner I've even used needed a major clean out itself.

[@LastZion]

Would you recommend this out of all other shark corded for a 90% carpeted house with no pet? We always get lotsa hair normally, so prefer the anti hair wrap head. The house also has lotsa stairs, it's a town house. Many thanks

[@ibaisaic]

I would personally go for the smaller powered lift away upright that I showed a few weeks ago.

[@LastZion]

Thanks Rog, do you mean this one? kzbin.info/www/bejne/iXaze36on919l9k. How about dyson small ball that you reviewed recently? I'm tempted to get the v11 as you've shared on other vid about the £100 off currently. But it will only work for 8 minutes on high, not sure if medium (40ish mins) be enough for me. Any advise would be much appreciated. Many thanks

[@ibaisaic]

Yes, that Shark is currently my favourite. I prefer it to the larger model as it’s more nimble and lighter to use in lift away mode. The Dyson Small Ball is good on carpets and floors but I find it awkward when using the hose and tools. The lift away on the Shark is more convenient in that respect, especially for stairs and inside the car. In my opinion the Dyson is not a replacement for a mains cleaner. Using mine today I’d forgotten how heavy it is in the hand and keeping your finger on the power trigger is a pain.

[@vacuum_collector26]

Great video on the vacuum cleaners. Have you done a tour of the holiday cottage on rogers bits and doings.

Hi. I have this machine and am really pleased with its performance. Can the large brush be removed? There’s something stuck to the clear plastic in a place that I can’t get to. Thanks.

[@MzClementine]

Haha! I have a test home for yah! Hehehehehehee... Hmm wow. The vacuum seems to handle hard to carpet easily. Wow!!! Okay, this is going on my list of needs... lovely!

[@zyborg47]

That dirt bin is a bit small, looking at getting a new machine, I did think about shark, but not sure if I want a stick one or not, they seem to be underpowered compared full size machines, certainly since i have a cat. I did have a Vax for 2 days, it was returned due to it sticking to the carpet and no way to adjust the airflow, been looking for a new machine since. Machines are so expensive these days, and they look so cheap and plastic. my old cylinder Electrolux that lasted for years was made of metal, sounder like a jet engine, but boy did it pick up :)

[@ibaisaic]

If you want a cleaner that you can adjust the airflow and height of the cleaner head, look at the Sebo Felix.

[@zyborg47]

@@ibaisaic Thanks for the reply. my problem was that the Vax just stuck to the floor, I could not move it and looking at the reviews after i got it, other people had the same problem. Surly putting a slider in to control the suction is an easy thing to do. the Sebo looks ok, but not sure if I really want to get that amount for a cleaner. My next door neighbour have just got a shark cordless stick machine, looks ok, but again a bit more than I want to give just to clean the floor. But it looks like i may have to go to that price to get something that will work on my carpet. When I am off work in the next couple of days, i will grab my next door neighbours Shark and see how it does on my carpets.

[@ThePrime206]

hi Rodger this is Mike I just wanted to give you an update since the last time I sent you the question during your unboxing video.I had to send my unit back because the motor and the power brush wasn't working properly it wouldn't turn on half the time and that was only after a month-and-a-half of use. Also I felt that the locking mechanism on the end of the hose wasn't going to stand up to the test of time.also I did not like the mini power brush attachment you would think for that price that they could have made an electric version.and the reason why I didn't like it is because it does bog down like many other are driven power brushes. I will say this the amount of suction power is amazing and it did do well when it did work. But I just wanted to give you and your viewers an update on the durability of the particular

Hi, not sure if you did a review of a newer model hz500, but can you comment how the stock compares to the upright shark (black edition) that you reviewed recently?

[@TheMstwntdLMSV123]

It seems to clean incredibly well but those wheels don't sound so good

[@q3b26]

The wheels on my mum's shark sound the same, also the same on my Vax and my Dyson 😂

Could you do a comparison of the shark cordless and corded stick vac? That would be great.👍 great video as well btw.

[@2303scorpio]

That looks a fab hoover. I love the colour of this shark but I would want a cordless 1. I wonder if they do a cordless version with the anti hair rap head?

[@christinedonne]

very disappointed with mine. Loved it at first but has slowly stopped working as well. The motor seems to have gotten very weak. It’s not two years old and have kept the filters clean and well maintained. I have an older cheaper shark still going strong. Don’t think I will be getting another shark.

Those Vax machines are good, they have great pickup. The only way you'd get so much from the Shark would be down to the owners not vacuuming very diligently between lets.

If you had to choose between the HV390UKT and this HZ400UKT, which would you go for?

[@adrianfyt]

I went for HZ400UKT - the main reason anti hair wrap.

[@JustWinBaby_23]

Hi Roger. Another great, thorough demonstration. How do you clean the anti hair wrap brush roll? Would you recommend this model for homes without pets? It’s $199 on Shark’s site in the US, but it only comes with two attachments. They make it sound like it’s a great deal - $200 off/half price - but I never see new Shark models discounted this much a month after it launched.

[@ibaisaic]

I just use a wet wipe to clean the brush roll as it can’t be removed without tools. You don’t need to have a pet to get full use from this cleaner but I prefer the powered lift away uprights. In the UK Shark often discount their cleaners soon after launch.

[@JustWinBaby_23]

Thank you. I thought this model is a powered lift-away upright?

[@oOJustBringItOo]

Which Modell is this? Been searching for it but can't find it.

[@gaylejenkins8927]

Is it possible to only use the soft brush? I have loop carpets so it's not advisable to use a bristle brush.

[@non-stickfryingpan6242]

Gayle Jenkins nope, buy a dyson where th fluffy head is separate, better cyclone technology as well, lighterweight and better motor

[@non-stickfryingpan6242]

Gayle Jenkins buy v10 if you can’t afford v11 you can also get a cheaper model and buy the fluffy head separately

[@non-stickfryingpan6242]

It will last you a lot longer, much better quality and better technology

[@ibaisaic]

No, you can’t use it with the soft brush alone. I know that most loop pile carpet manufacturers recommend you avoid using cleaners with a revolving brush as it can cause the pile to go fluffy as I know from experience. Sebo upright vacuums such as the X7 and Felix have an optional soft bristle brush that can be used on loop pile carpeting.

[@gaylejenkins8927]

@@non-stickfryingpan6242 Thank you for your advice. I don't want to spend too much as I only have two carpets in my house but unfortunately they are both loop, one being an expensive sisel on the landing. I will look into your suggestions. Thanks again.

When you vacuum parallel to the wall does it clean the corner where the floor meets the wall 100% or does it leave some debris?
