Style: StainStriker + 4 Tools + XL Cleaning Sol...
I bought the Shark StainStriker specifically to clean a couch and accent chairs I purchased from Facebook Marketplace, and I’m honestly amazed by the results. The furniture looked decent when I picked it up, but after using this cleaner, it looked and smelled so much fresher and cleaner. The machine is lightweight, easy to carry, and very simple to use. It removed old stains, dirt, and odors much better than I expected, especially from the fabric cushions and armrests. I also loved how quickly the upholstery dried afterward. The suction power is impressive for a portable cleaner, and the included cleaning solution worked really well without leaving a sticky residue. I’ve since used it on my car seats and area rugs too, and it performs great every time. If you buy secondhand furniture or have pets/kids, this machine is definitely worth having around. Highly recommend! ... show more

The Shark StainStriker is easy to use and does an excellent job removing stains from carpet and upholstery. It has strong suction, and the cleaning solution helped lift both old and fresh stains while leaving everything smelling clean. The included attachments make it easy to tackle furniture, stairs, and vehicle interiors. It's compact, effective, and a great machine to have for quick cleanups around the house. ... show more

  • SUPER POWERFUL CLEANING MACHINE see photos attached to be amazed
Style: StainStriker + 4 Tools + XL Cleaning Sol...
Wow I am blown away at how well this machine worked! It took the sofa my dog uses from being trash worthy, to looking nearly brand new! I wasn’t sure how well this would work on this extremely old and dingy sofa at first, but was amazed instantly at how well the cleaners and brushes on the heads removed the tough stains and the vacuum just sucked the rest right up leaving my dogs sofa the cleanest it has ever been! I highly highly recommend this product to anyone with pets who get in furniture, children who make messes and for everyday life! I will also be using this in 3 of my boats interiors as well as vehicles and headboards of our beds! It’s a miracle worker!! The only issue was it did dirty tank did not hold a lot of water so I found myself emptying it often, the corded feature was long enough for me to plug it in and use it far away, it was super easy to put together and is pretty light weight! ... show more

  • Great Little Mighty Cleaner!
Style: StainStriker + 4 Tools + XL Cleaning Sol...
Did the job well done. I bought a brand new sofa 2 weeks ago and although I was being very careful the inevitable happened -- I spilled an entire cup of tea on it at 9 pm. I immediately went on amazon to buy this upholstery cleaner, watched my movie and went to bed with peace of mind via overnight delivery - it was at my door by the time I woke up the next morning! I just got done cleaning the sofa. The Shark StainStrike was well packaged and is durable, it seems tough. All the parts fit nicely together. The suction worked great. Its portable yet has enough water capacity and easy to carry around...its just the right size. I'm looking forward to using it on my car seats. I am very pleased with this purchase. ... show more

  • PX202BRN did not ship with the self-cleaning attachment to clean out the hose. PX251 is excellent.
Style: StainStriker + 4 Tools + XL Cleaning Sol...
::EDIT:: This review is for both the PX202 and the PX251 HairPro. PX202 -- I initially bought the PX202BRN to replace an old Bissell that has started leaking from the clean water container (second tank I bought for it...I've had several Bissells and they all leak after a while). After looking at pretty much every review and Youtube video I could find, I picked this Shark PX202 because it had all of the features I wanted including a self-cleaning attachment for the hose. My old Bissell didn't have any way to clean the hose and it was disgusting after several years of cleaning up pet messes. When I unpacked it I discovered that it was missing the self-cleaning attachment. I searched the reviews here and it's a pretty common issue. Other reviews mentioned that Shark did not have the part available when they were contacted about it. Shark also doesn't show this part on their website so it's not even available to buy separately. I found this unusual because you can find parts for pretty much any Shark product all over the place. Parts for their carpet vacs in general seem to be hard to find though. It's possible that Shark customer service can send this part out if you call them but I didn't want to deal with the hassle so I ordered a PX251 HairPro instead. PX251 HairPro review -- 5 stars for this one. It had all the accessories and attachments as advertised. Fortunately or unfortunately I got to try it out right away because my dog got a very upset stomach and woke us up at 1:30 a.m. when he had a pretty large accident on the carpet. I grudgingly work up, filled up both tanks and got to work. Everything worked great, first with the pet mess tool, then with the regular cleaning head. It picked everything up without any problems and was much easier to clean the dirty water tank and the cleaning heads than my old Bissell. The self cleaning system on the PX251 is very easy to use and doesn't require the external attachment like the PX202 does. Just press the cleaning head or plain nozzle on the top part of the cleaning tank and it does its thing and flushes out the hose. Very well designed system. Very happy with the PX251. The only minor negatives are that the PX251 doesn't come with a lot of cleaning solution and niether the PX202 or PX251 come with anything in which to store the extra attachments. A minor but noticeable oversight. In contrast, the PX202 comes with almost double the amount of cleaning solution than the PX251. You would think the more expensive top-of-the-line one would come with more solution. But that's minor because I usually just make my own DIY solution. I'll be buying more of the Oxy Multiplier though. Overall both are a good choice but be aware that the PX202 might not come with the cleaning attachment. If that is important to you like it is for me, the PX251 is the better choice. So, 5 stars for the PX251 but rated everything 4 stars overall because of the missing attachment on the PX202, the lack of any storage for the various cleaning attachments, and the miniscule amount of cleaning solution the PX251 comes with. I like Shark products and have several of them including a stick vac, a regular upright vac that is still working great after almost 15 years, a robot vac, now the PX251. Overall I think they make decent stuff for the money. ... show more

  • Out of box and first time use impression: Excellent!
Style: StainStriker + 4 Tools + XL Cleaning Sol...
Okay, so here's the deal. We have a dog. And if you have a dog, you need a carpet cleaner or you like it or not are living with filthy carpets. So we have a RugDoctor that we use ever few months and it works great. But it's huge. And heavy. And getting it out and setting it up to do a small section of carpet is really a pain in the rear. I figured a little spot cleaner would be a good investment. So I bought a Bissell. It broke after three uses. And I bought a new improved one, the little green one you see all over the place. The hose leaked. And I mean LEAKED. Their customer service was AWFUL, so I got rid of it. I wanted a pro-grade spot cleaner. I'm willing to pay 2 or even 3X what the cheap models cost if it works better and lasts longer. The rug doctor one is also huge and had middling reviews, so I looked at the Shark model. We have a Shark vacuum at Church and I actually think the design is extremely clever and it works well. So why not try the Shark spot cleaner? I was suspicious: at $99 in Amazon Prime Day it must be a piece of crap, right? Not so. First off, this thing is SMALL. Much smaller than the competitors, and it is SQUARE and a huge oblong thing. Maybe 14" by 14" by 14". This means it can be stored almost anywhere without issue. The Bissells I owned were horribly noisy, and the shrill / shrieking tone of the vacuum really made it unpleasant to use. This one is loud as well, but it is NOT AT ALL shrieky or shrill, so using it is not fatiguing to the ears. I love that about it. But does it work? We had some stains from our dog where she likes to lie watching the activities in the kitchen without having to lie on the cold tile in the kitchen. So that area is particularly dirty. So is the area next to the couch which she frequents. I filled the water tank to the line with hot tap water and then filled it with the cleaning solution to the next line (you use next to none of it). Then you put the Oxy accelerator in the other tank. And off you go. Here is what awaits you: It is small and lightweight, so you can easily take it around the house. Living room, bedroom, family room, no fuss and no bother getting it around the house. Reasonably long cord (probably 10 feet?) makes it pretty easy to get to various areas without having to unplug / replug. Operation can't be easier. Press the TOP MOUNTED (thank you designers!) power button and the vacuum fires up. Not quiet, but like I said, not obnoxious. You put on any one of FOUR different heads. A super small one is permanently attached for maybe dime size stains. Then there is a small one, maybe 3" across, then another one that has a weird reservoirs that I have no idea what it is used for, and then a large one maybe 6" across. The small one was great... You pull the trigger and extract the solution, and the built in brush which is removable allows you to ensure the solution gets into the pile. The clear head allows you to see the extraction that is happening, which I'm sure is more for show than anything else, but I did find it useful to make sure I'd gotten all the solution sucked up. So spray, brush, extract, spray, brush, extract, and... BOOM. Stains are gone. And I mean GONE! I used this in three rooms. All the stains (and some were nasty) are all gone save for one in the bedroom that is less of a stain and more of some sticky substance probably from the garden. It did an admirable job but I will likely have to use solvent to get rid of it all. The proof comes when you empty the waste tank, which admittedly is pretty small. You know it is time to empty it when the pitch of the vacuum changes, basically it closes a float valve to ensure you don't start spraying your surroundings with the dirt you sucked up through the vacuum exhaust. Definitely not something you want. So I took the device into the bathroom, lifted the waste tank out of the device (you just pull up on the handle) and then to remove the valve / feeder assembly, you push that same handle in the opposite direction and the whole top (which is actually the bottom) comes off. And when you dump the waste water into the toilet, don't be surprised when the toilet water turns a disgusting dark brown. Here's the thing: We vacuum regularly and we had our carpets cleaned maybe 6 weeks ago, and this water was filthy! How that much dirt came out of our carpets is pretty amazing. SO... in summary, this is a small and compact and very effective cleaner that is easy to store, easy to use and is not as loud or irritating as other machines. If this thing holds up (I did buy the three year extended warranty for an extra $10... figured it was worth it given the poor showing of the Bissell machines) so I would be delighted if my $10 proves to be a waste of money. If you read the internet, you'll see this is a top pick with a lot of reviewers. I can see why. It certainly is designed intelligently and appears to work great. If it lasts for several years, then I will have made a fine decision, and perhaps more important to the manufacturer, I will have become a satisfied customer who knows they can trust the brand to deliver true value to me as a customer. ... show more

  • Fantastic Carpet Cleaning Appliance for Small Jobs
Style: StainStriker + 4 Tools + XL Cleaning Sol...
This thing is the bomb. I had one of its competitors' products a few years ago and it was OK, but I needed a new carpet cleaner for my carpeted stairway (the only carpet I have in my house), and I already have a Shark vacuum and a Shark stick vacuum that I love, so I thought I'd give this a whirl even though it's a bit more expensive than some of the others. It didn't disappoint. Shark's come a long way in the reliability and finesse of its products from the first leaky iron I bought 20 years ago, and they're now among the best out there. This thing is perfect for cleaning stairs. All I can say is I'm really impressed. It's actually a lot quieter than I expected, super light weight with a convenient handle, both the cord and the hose store easily on the device (the hose nozzle even has a notch to attach to the unit's body). It came with both the base cleaning solution and an oxidizing booster solution, both of which have dedicated tanks (the solution tank must be filled with water and topped off with cleaning solution). Also comes with three brushes - a small one integrated into the hose for crevices, a 3" hand tool, a 7" hand tool (which is the one I used), and a "pet waste" tool with a small tank on it which I did not have to use, thankfully, LOL. Has a solid spray and cleans super well, and I was surprised with how much dark gray solution it extracted out of my stairway carpet. The hand tools have integrated brushes and it was quite easy to maneuver around and carry. Filling and emptying the three tanks (Water + cleaner, oxidizer and extracted waste tank) was super easy and all three just pull off of the unit. The waste and cleaning solution tanks have their own handles. I immediately bought a couple of bottles of replacement solution for future use. I also liked how they packaged it - they used recycled cardboard inserts and no styrofoam. Only two small things I think could be improved: The included power cord is fairly short, so if you want to clean something like a stairwell, you'll need a three-prong extension cord in all likelihood to reach your outlet. The cord could be longer. Also - the included cleaner bottle (Deep Clean Pro) was quite small, and might be good for maybe three tanks of water - and the Oxy Multiplier solution, which you'll use far less of, was much larger, which I thought was strange. It should be the reverse. The replacement units I bought of both were much larger. Small gripes, though. All in all, this thing is well executed and a great value and I'm really happy with it. ... show more
