Shark CarpetXpert HairPro Pet Deep Carpet Cleaner EX220UK

If pet hair is genuinely defeating your standard vacuum — winding around the brush bar, clogging filters, leaving visible clumps pressed into carpet pile — this machine addresses that specific failure point directly. The EX220UK uses anti-tangle, anti-clog technology designed to lift embedded pet hair from carpet fibres without heat or pre-treatment, which matters because most deep cleaners rely on hot water to loosen debris that this model tackles mechanically. That's a meaningful distinction if you've ever waited 30 minutes for a carpet to dry before your dog immediately walked across it.

Who Is This For?

This is built for households with one or more shedding pets and carpets that see real daily use — think Labradors on living room rugs or cats that favour the bedroom carpet. If you're already spending money on professional cleaning appointments, this could replace several of those annually and pay for itself quickly. That said, if your home is predominantly hard flooring with only a small rug or two, a good cordless vacuum from our best cordless vacuum deals guide would be a more proportionate spend.

What Buyers Say

Owners consistently praise the volume of hair and embedded dirt the EX220UK pulls from carpets that looked clean beforehand — the dirty water tank tends to generate a reaction. The anti-tangle brush bar earns specific mentions from cat owners who previously spent time manually clearing rollers. The most common frustration is the machine's size and weight, which makes carrying it between floors less convenient than users expect, and the clean water tank capacity means top-ups on larger rooms.

The Deal

Currently priced at £149.99, reduced from £229.99 — a saving of £80 or 35%.

Worth checking our best Shark deals page to see how this compares to current Shark pricing across the range.
