To choose your free tools, see the accessory selector page after you add to cart. Lithium ion batteries are extremely powerful which means it is crucial to use battery packs that are safe. Our batteries have a very effective battery management system which is a top-level safety feature ensuring the battery does not overheat or overcharge shark cordless and catch fire. This system also ensures that the battery is communicating properly with the rest of the machine. With cheaper third-party replacement packs, you have no idea where the battery and lithium cells came from and there were likely no quality controls to ensure safe manufacturing or consistency with the product.
This wall-mounted wet/dry vacuum/blower isn’t portable in the slightest but makes up for it with supreme power and a 32-foot-long hose. The other knock is you’ll need Milwaukee’s proprietary M18 battery and charger, sold separately. But if you already have other Milwaukee M18 tools, the battery works with this vacuum like a charm. Speaking of crevice tools, the V8’s is criminally small and really struggled against large pieces. For a home/car vacuum, it works—but we wouldn’t recommend dropping this kind of cash to use it strictly for your vehicle.
Battery life is so-so, coming in at just around 11 minutes, and the noise level is pretty average. Despite those drawbacks, we chose the Dustbuster as our Best Overall Car Vacuum for its successful blend of price, performance, and household versatility. The Max comes with a charging stand that you can set on a counter top or mount on a wall and charges in under four hours. The large 15-ounce bowl empties easily and both the bowl and filter can be washed in the sink. We don’t know how long this customer-loved vacuum will be on sale, so pick up the Shark Wandvac Ultra-Lightweight Cordless Vacuum while it’s $60 off. If you have asthma or severe allergies, and indoor air quality is crucial to your health, a high-quality bagged vacuum is a safe bet.
However, it’s heavy, and one of the noisiest vacuums we’ve tested. Shark makes a variety of vacuum types including upright, stick, and handheld models. Choose the type of vacuum that fits your cleaning objectives and preferences. Upright vacuums typically offer the most suction and dust bin capacity, but stick vacuums are super convenient for daily cleaning and maintenance of floors.
Add to that accelerated suction (what Shark calls “HyperVelocity”), LED “headlights,” and a self-cleaning brushroll that picks up pet hair without getting tangled. A removable battery delivers up to 40 minutes of runtime, and can be charged anywhere in the house. To translate that for everyone, it basically means that you get 40 minutes in low power mode, which is only really suitable for hard floors with little dirt on. Shark is a good household manufacturer that produces items like mops and irons alongside vacuums at different price points and styles. You can also use many Shark vacuums as handhelds, which is nice if you need to clean hard-to-reach places.
