  • Very pleased with my cleaning experience
I rented a machine for the first time ever a few months ago. It was bulky, not fun to pick up and return, and pretty difficult to drag to the second floor and back. I became obsessed with buying my own machine, even though I rent, partially because the water was almost black and I knew there was more dirt to be had from this carpet which I guess is 7 to 10 years old standard apartment carpet. Then, while this Shark R-EX201 was in transit, my dog had a bout with a digestive issue and left massive 'gifts' in the LR 2 nights in a row. Now I was even more happy I bought my own machine. Pros & one thing I know most people think is a con (but it's really not) 1. Very efficient use of water. I filled up the much larger tank of the rental 2 or 3 times for the LR, whereas the Shark used about 3/5ths of its tank for the same area. 2. The few extra pounds over other lightweight machines gives more contact and better suction. 3. I am happy with the 2 modes - a Deep Clean and a Dry Only. I think the dry is important to have. 4. It dries with suction, not heat, so I can use this machine in the summer. Of course the carpet was still damp, but I made multiple slow passes to get up as much water as possible. The extraction was good and I was pleased with the level of remaining dampness, the same or better than the rental I would say. It seemed like the carpet dried in a little over an hour, but I didn't time it. 5. It is quieter than the rental. I would compare it to a good quality vacuum cleaner's level of noise, and it is not obnoxious. I watched some video reviews of other machines that I would describe as obnoxious. 6. Cleaning the machine after use, while it is going to be disgusting with any machine, was pretty quick to accomplish. I dumped the dirty water tank and rinsed most all of the debris *outdoors*, and used a paper towel to grab the dog hair around some of the parts and under the front cover. Be smart & save your plumbing, just do the final touch up rinse in your sink or tub. 7. Okay the one thing I know people think is a negative is when a carpet cleaner leaves clumps of pet hair randomly on the carpet. I have a very high quality German vacuum cleaner and I vacuumed thoroughly just before using the Shark. These clumps of hair were a testament, in my view, to the power of the motor. (The rental did not leave any clumps, but their motor is not as powerful as the Shark EX-201, according to carpet cleaner wars) I picked them up as I went because I didn't want them to get sucked into the machine and have to clean them anyway in the end, which of course is no one's favorite thing to do, but I feel sure that eventually this embedded hair buildup will come to an end and the carpet will be much cleaner. I would rather bend over and pick up the hair mats than have all that extra stuff to get out of the machine, afterwards. Lastly I will say that this Renewed Shark R-EX201 looked perfectly brand new when I received it and had all the parts. (The one I got was rated Excellent, so ymmv) I can recommend the EX-201 based on the above. Sorry no pictures or video because I started after dark tonight. ... show more

  • Shark EX-201 Carpet Cleaner
Awesome Shark Vac. My carpet is 20 years old. I’ve had 2 dogs during that time. After using the Shark EX-201 the carpet looked amazing. Looked like I had a professional clean the carpet. Very easy to use and clean the vacuum after use. Highly recommend the Shark EX-201.

  • Your arms might hate you but your carpets and family will love you !!
I've just finished using the shark Rex 201 on my living room carpet and I've got some thoughts. This thing's a beast in a good way. It's pretty hefty, but that extra. Weight seems to help it really dig into the carpet. The suction power is no joke. It pulled out dirt I didn't even know, was there kind of gross but satisfying the water tanks are decent sized, so you're not constantly running back. And forth to the sink. Now it's not all sunshine and rainbows. This machine is loud like wake up. The neighbors loud and maneuvering. It can be a workout, especially around furniture. The attachments are handy for stairs and upholstery, but switching them out is a bit fiddly. Took me a minute to figure it out. Price wise, it's not cheap. But considering how much I was spending on professional cleaning, it'll probably pay for itself. Eventually bottom line, if you've got pets or kids or both. And your carpets have seen better days, this shark might be worth the investment. Just maybe warn the family before you start or get the noise. Canceling headphones, 4 out of 5. My stars would recommend, but your arms might hit you for a day or 2. ... show more

  • #1 Cleaner if you have pets!!
The purpose for purchasing this cleaner was to clean up pee stains from our new puppy and of course any other stains from dropped juice and what not. It’s so easy to set the tank up with water and add the solution. You can literally see the dirt and stains be lifted. When the tank is full of dirty water the vacuum stops until you empty it. I’m completely amazed at how clean our carpet looks making the house smell fresh. I suggest you vacuum first then use the wet vacuum. I raked the carpet to remove pet hair then I vacuumed but the shark vacuum picked up even more hair than what I previously cleaned. This is my first use and so far no issues to report. Best purchase I have ever invested in don’t even care if it’s refurbished. I love the color, it’s not heavy at all and easy to maneuver. Only down side was the sample deep cleaner bottle leaked out product but I plan on purchasing a full bottle set. **In the pictures you can see the before stains with my dogs and then the after pictures** ... show more

  • Terrible
Hard to use, small dirty tank and burnt out on first use . Frustrating so threw in trash rather than deal with it . Ordered a Hoover and pretty satisfied

  • Worked well cleaning up dog mess
Worked well cleaning up major mess my sick dog with diarrhea made. Tried cleaning the mess with my portable cleaner with limited success. The Shark removed all traces and stains. Unit is light weight and easy to handle.

  • Deep cleaner!
This machine is user friendly. Hand hose and accessories work very well and have a nice suction power. Dry time is quite fast as well. The included shampoo smells amazing. Not harsh to the nose and leaves a nice clean, soft scent. The downside(s) for are it seems to be very sensitive and touchy with all the sensors and modes. So if the machine is not reading right it will power off -you would expect this after many uses, but not after 1 use. This is definitely an inconvenience. Your clean/dirty tank are small and don't hold a lot so multiple refills if you're doing an area room carpet. Lastly you don't control when or how much the solution comes out, this is automatically dispensed with a forward motion, and can be easily repeated by mistake trying to get to your next path. Overall pretty good product for the suction and dry powern and accessories are perfect for edges, stairs and even furniture. ... show more
