It’s one of the few handhelds with a built-in hose, meaning it’s great for cleaning in awkward locations, plus it comes with several tools.. We were a bit disappointed with its suction power during our testing, but it’s still great for hard floors and light cleaning jobs.. To maintain this vacuum’s suction power it’s important to clean the filter on a regular basis.

There is an air leak.If air can escape before it reaches the floor tool, then the vacuum won’t be able to deliver as much suction.

Check that the hose, tools, filter, canister, and other pieces of the vacuum are correctly fitted..The hose is cracked.A crack in the hose can cause air loss, which reduces suction power.

If this is the case, then you’ll probably need to purchase a new hose..The vacuum belt is broken.

If your vacuum’s brush roll isn’t spinning at all, even after you’ve removed tangled hair, then the belt may be broken.

You can often buy.According to the product specifications, the 10.8V lithium-ion battery powers the Shark Handvac for up to 10 minutes.

This is around average for a handheld vacuum, but is only suitable for spot cleaning.. With that said, we tested the Shark CH950UKT and.found it lasted around 13 minutes with the motorised pet tool attached.

(although this is without active cleaning).While this still isn’t enough for a deep clean, it’s perfectly acceptable for the types of cleaning jobs the Shark is designed to handle.
