Shark Carpet Cleaners and Spot Cleaners
What is the difference between a spot cleaner and carpet cleaner?
A spot cleaner is a lightweight, portable device designed for targeted stain removal. It is ideal for quick cleanups on carpets, upholstery, stairs, and area rugs. Shark's StainForce™, for example, uses a dual-activated OXY formula that delivers 30X more stain-striking power with no premix required, making it easy to grab and go wherever messes happen. A carpet cleaner is a full-size, upright machine built for whole-home deep cleaning. Shark's CarpetXpert™ and CarpetForce™ upright carpet cleaners combine a high-speed brush roll and powerful suction to pull out embedded dirt and grime. Think of a spot cleaner as your everyday quick-fix, and a carpet cleaner as your deep-clean powerhouse.
Can carpet cleaners be used on upholstery?
Yes! Shark's CarpetXpert™ carpet cleaners feature a built-in spot & stain eliminator that extends to clean not just carpets, but also stairs, upholstery, and other isolated stains, so you never miss a spot. The StainStriker™ handheld tool activates two unique formulas on contact for 20X more stain-striking power, making it just as effective on your couch as it is on your carpets.
How do I clean a carpet?
For best results, start by vacuuming thoroughly to remove loose dirt and debris before using a carpet cleaner. Then:
- Fill your carpet cleaner with the recommended deep cleaning cleaning solution, Shark's Deep Clean formulas are designed specifically to work with Shark technology for best results.
- Make slow, overlapping passes to give the brush roll and suction time to lift embedded dirt.
- For tough stains, use the built-in StainStriker™ spot tool directly on the affected area, no premix needed.
- Allow carpets to dry fully before walking on them. Shark's CarpetXpert™ technology is designed for ultra-fast dry times so you're not waiting long to get back to your day.
What is the best carpet cleaner?
The best carpet cleaner depends on your home's needs, but Shark's CarpetXpert™ with StainStriker™ is built to deliver powerful cleaning results. It combines CarpetXpert technology, a high-speed brush roll, PowerWash™ high-pressure spray, and Shark's ultra powerful suction with a built-in StainStriker™ spot & stain remover for whole-home versatility.
For pet owners, the CarpetXpert™ HairPro and pet cleaning solution takes it a step further with 3X more pet hair pickup and odor reduction, even for pet urine and smoke.
For smaller spaces, the CarpetForce™ features a compact design for convenient storage without compromising on deep cleaning power.
What carpet cleaner is safe for pets?
