Our tester was pleased with the model’s excellent battery life, HEPA filter and suction strength. They said: “Cleaning power is downright astonishing, and our carpet looked like it had been deep cleaned after a quick once-over with this vacuum.

Designed to make vacuuming easier this model is 30 per cent lighter than previous models and I reckon you’ll love that auto-emptying technology. The vacuum automatically charges and empties when hooked up to the docking base which holds dirt and debris for up to 30 days, meaning a lot less trips to the bin. It also features pet tools and anti-hair wrap technology similar to other models which IndyBest tester and home appliance whizz Rachael checked out in our review of the best pet vacuums, in which Shark took the top spot.

In her review of the best pet vacuum cleaners, tech and home appliance tester Rachael Penn said this model was “lightweight but super powerful”. She was impressed with how it automatically adjusted its suction power to the cleaning task, which prolongs its battery life. It comes with smart app integration, too, so you’ll get things like real-time performance and maintenance reminders, in an app that Rachael said “works really well”. This deal will save you just shy of £70 on the model, so I certainly think it’s one to consider.

Shark anti-hair-wrap corded bagless upright vacuum cleaner: Was £230, now £129, Argos.co.uk

Very much a loved brand at IndyBest, we think Shark vacuums are some of the best on the market. While cordless vacuums are certainly useful for moving around the house, sometimes a heavier, corded appliance is what you need for a super-deep clean. With Shark’s signature anti-hair-wrap technology, your vacuum will remove the hair from the brush-roll as you clean, so you don’t have to pull out a matted hair ball at the end of your session. Now, you can save more than £100 on this vacuum at Argos.
