Shark products are outstanding. This carpet cleaner had a scannable code right on the top of the product that contains one of the BEST videos I've seen on how to use a product. Bravo to Shark for putting that video together. It explains the options simply and tells you how to get the best results. It also explained features I didn't even know it had. The product is thoughtfully designed and intuitive to put together and use, just like their regular vacuum cleaners. The suction is amazing.
I don't do rating for products that don't meet my expectations. This product exceeds any expectation that I had. We recently adopted a new puppy and let me tell you this of all the stuff we have for cleaning up messes, this is the best. It is light and portable and easy to clean. We started using it without reading the instructions (Duh) and discovered that you should vacuum the mess first and then use the cleaning spray to complete the cleaning process. Overall, this is worth every penny we spent purchasing this. I understand that there is a newer version to this cleaner that might be an improvement to this, however. I don't know how you improve on perfection. I recommend this to everyone.
Waste of money! Doesn’t do anything. Trying to find out how to send it back! I tried to use it on a stain and it made it worse!!!!!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall I think this product! It was a little smaller than I expected but still works good. It’s a good tool that’s easily portable, it’s not heavy at all. Easy to figure out. I used it on some smaller stains and they came out pretty easily!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This new Shark Stainstriker is SO nice! Between kids, my husband and my pets I swear I'm ALWAYS cleaning either the rugs or my couches. I love that there are multiple attachments (the pet mess one is a lifesaver!) And it's so easy to get into small areas with the crevice wand. The Stainstriker is also small enough that I can store it easily when not in use. The time saved with this has been amazing and I like the smell of the cleaner so it's a massive win-win for me!
