I have been wanting a portable upholstery wet vacuum for a while now. The bonus is this has the ability for pet hair and pet messes is just - wow.... So setup was super simple. Follow the instructions step by step and you are all set. The cleaning solutions that come with the Shark vacuum is great. All pre measured and ready to use. Overall the attachments all look solid. They snap into place nicely. No slop. The hose wraps around and clips on for storage so this is great. The ninja designers really thought this through along with all the features of the different attachments and what they can do. Unlike other vacuums where you have to buy more accessories this comes with pretty much everything in 1 box at time of purchase. So let's get to the cleaning part. I filled up the tanks and went to town on my dog's bed which was filthy full of slobber and dog hair because she sheds like a snow beast on a hot summer day. This vacuum just sucked up and cleaned all of that with ease. Cleaning the hose is super cool. You just put it on top and depress the button and you get cleaner to flush the hose out. Dumping the dirty water out was nice and easy. Everything stayed locked together until you unlocked it and wanted to disassemble it. Overall great design. Great product. Would highly recommend it for pet owners or just for folks who want an upholstery cleaner. Nice job Shark.

Assembly for the Shark StainStriker HairPro Pet was quick and straightforward, and I immediately appreciated how lightweight and compact it is. It’s easy to store, though I do wish there was a better place to keep the extra heads. The real test came when I used it on an old pet urine stain in my daughter’s room. We had cleaned the spot by hand with the usual pet products, but a brown stain stuck around for months. After just one use of the StainStriker, the stain was noticeably better. While it wasn’t completely gone after the first pass, the improvement was impressive, especially considering how long the stain had been there. With another pass or two, I’m confident it will be gone for good. The two-tank system works well enough, but because it’s a portable unit, you end up filling the whole thing even for small jobs, which wastes a lot of cleaner. And that stuff isn’t cheap! I did really like how the pet hair tool has a separate tank for collecting hair before it reaches the dirty water tank, keeping things clog-free. Overall, the Shark StainStriker HairPro Pet is easy to use, effective, and ideal for small jobs. If you’ve got pets (or messy babies) and need a reliable stain remover, this is a great option to consider!

Read a review how good this machine is and bought it. Sure glad I did. Small footprint and light. Multiple attachments for any cleaning need. Excellent suction. I've owned 3 Little Green Machines, which were good. But they kept breaking/leaking. Very impressed with this Shark's cleaning ability and the self-cleaning function built in.

My Shark Stainstriker came well packed and completly intact. I'm happy to say no Styrofoam was used in the packaging just corrugated cardboard. I'm usually not prone to reading the directions, however this unit isn’t very intuitive, so I did go picture by picture to set it up. It was very easy and I was abouth the business of cleaning in no time. First the unit is very compact for spot cleaning carpets or area rugs. It is lightweight and very easy to carry around. It does not have onboard storage for the three different tools that attach to the hose. As you can see by the attached picture, this cleaner does a great job of cleaning. This is a combination of two years of just vacuuming and a new puppy that is in the process of being house broken. I really like the fresh scent of the cleaners, I sprayed the water solution and let it set for a minute or so and then scubbed and vacuumed all at once. Initially I considered giving the unit 4 stars, however it should be more like 4.5, only because it leaves a lot more moisture in the rug than I'd prefer. Again, however, the picture of the dirty water speaks volumes

Attachments are great. Works well. A bit loud but not unbearable. Does a good job of cleaning up messes and general cleaning. Machine isn't intuitive but is easy once you get the hang of it. Good suction. Be careful with the attachments. They can be a bit difficult and the machine will leak if they are not just so. Overall, I am really happy with my purchase!

We have an older dog and a puppy - both have accidents. The old cleaner wasn't cutting it for us. We purchased the StainStriker and love it. Cleaning: of course puppies will have accidents, the stain striker has cleaned every accident without leaving a trace (other than a damp spot for a while, more on this later. Both dogs track in mud from the yard, and this unit has cleaned mud, dog messes, old dog vomit, and other messes quickly. it's light weight, cleaning solution and water are in separate compartments in the tank, which makes the StainStriker ready to use at a moment's notice. This unit has a hose/nozzle cleaning port which is great, no real need to rinse in places you don't want pet messes to mix with, and keeps the odors away. Suction - the suction is stronger compared to another top 3 device. The carpet will always be damp after cleaning; however, the StainStriker appears to extract more fluid than others and spots dry much faster. easy to fill, empty, clean and use. My only suggestion is, i wish the cord was longer!

I recently tried the Shark upholstery cleaner, and overall I’m very impressed with how well it performs. The unit is lightweight, easy to maneuver, and simple to set up. The suction power is strong, pulling dirt and debris out of fabric that I didn’t even realize was there. It works especially well on couches, car seats, and fabric chairs—leaving them looking noticeably fresher and cleaner. On the downside, the cord could be a little longer, and the water tank isn’t huge, so for larger jobs you’ll need to refill a couple of times. Also, it can be a bit noisy during use, but that’s expected with most compact cleaners.

This small machine gets the job done. I love that it comes with extra attachments and is easy to use and clean up. Shark never disappoints me.

Works amazing. Our dog has an accident ALL over my beige rug. Scrubbing with carpet shampoo, vinegar, and baking soda still left behind patches of yellow everywhere. I purchased the Shark immediately and went to work. It cleaned up my carpet like new. It’s got a strong suction and many attachments that make it easy to break up any messes. I would definitely recommend this to anymore with small children or pets, it comes in handy more than I thought it would!

I've had an upright, the little ones don't suck as hard and the suction head is smaller, so this thing is a lot more work. But it does work. I've cleaned 3 messes on light colored carpet and you can watch the water go from dirty to clear on the pickup. It's weird that you put solution into the fresh water tank, I'm not using that and just the oxy soap tank so far and it's working well. The scrub brushes it comes with are ok, but something with longer bristles is needed to get into the fibers. This machine sucks, and sucks well.

Great suction. Compact and easy to carry and store. The cleaner indicated where chair was soiled by bubbling so I got it really clean. Love it.

I love this cleaner. It is small and light. It is so easy to use and best of all it cleans better than all the other cleaners I have used. I just used it to deep clean cushions that were stained and left outside. They seriously look brand new. I can't say enough how much I love this cleaner.

2 young kids, a dog and constant messes means you need a portable scrubber. Bought this one to replace a Bissel that broke and couldn’t be happier. You’re not going to scrub a whole room with this but it’s perfect for spot cleaning messes and heavy cleaning a potential stain. Easy to clean and use. Only potential negative is the short cord but an extension cord is a quick fix.

Really good portable machine. Great suction too. I use Zep pro carpet cleaner instead of the overpriced branded cleaner and don’t bother with the secondary solution tank (at least now). Parts are easy to clean and the self clean works better than I thought. I do wish the power cord was a bit longer, but at least now I don’t have to get the big machine out to do stairs, vehicles or couches. I use this to clean up cat vomit. I will likely buy a full size shark carpet cleaner if my Bissel stops working.

I really liked this vacuum. It’s very lightweight, has a self-cleaning feature, and is easy to understand and use. It removes stains very well.

Easy to use, cleaning power is top notch. Stick with the manufactures cleaning solution if possible it does amazing. Ive on used the standard and mini attachments i can speak on the performance of the rest.

This product rocks! The best parts are how easy it is to clean, and keep clean. My previous one was a pain to clean and I would never get it 100%, and after some time it would get musty/moldy on the inside of the parts. This Shark doesn't have that problem at all. It does an awesome job cleaning. With or without the special cleaning solutions, just water does great too. Light and easy to whip out when my kids or dog makes a mess. Highly recommend if you're in the market for an easy to use and maintain carpet cleaner that does a fantastic job with messes.
