REMOVES PET URINE AND SMELLS!! Best purchase I have ever made!!

If you have pets, this is an absolute must and you must get refill liquids. This review is way overdue. Let me tell you I have carpet and I have tile in my home. I have cats and I have a dog. Once in a while, my dog will mark her territory and my cat will have an accident so this machine with all of the attachments is 100% whatever pet owner should have!! This machine is very lightweight and easy to clean. There is an extraction tool that extracts liquids, a.k.a. pee right off the floor or carpet so if my pets have an accident, this machine saves the day!! This machine is very lightweight and easy to clean. If my pets have a pee accident, I will use the urine/ liquid extraction tool first only sucking up the pee first and not spraying any cleaning solution yet. That extraction tool traps it in the container so that the urine does not go through your entire machine and stink it up. Once I have extracted as much urine as possible I will switch to the regular cleaning head. I will go back to the same spot and begin carpet cleaning as usual now spraying the cleaning solution, letting it soak for a few seconds and sucking it all out of the carpet. I will do this maybe three or four times just to be safe. There are two separate areas for these solutions to be added into the machine. Just follow the manufacturer directions. Using the two solutions that the machine comes with during this cleaning process is literal magic! I cannot even smell urine in the carpet and the smell has never come back, cat pee, or dog pee. In fact, I also own a black light, which was also purchased from Amazon, maybe 15 bucks and when your carpet is dry, you can take the black light at night in the dark and shine it to the floors walls or carpet and it will show you if there is any urine left. I have done this so that I can also clean old dried in spots and yes, it works on all dried in spots. I have an older cat in his urine on and off has a really foul order to it. He had an accident in my office once and I could not get the smell out of my carpet in the specific area. Once I got this machine. I used it as instructed along with the two solutions that it comes with and I can tell you that smell is gone. My cat never goes back to that area either. I have tried plenty of other solutions and mixtures and sprays believe me. Do yourself a favor and make the purchase!Ver más

Small but Mighty!

I absolutely love my Shark portable carpet and upholstery cleaner. It's compact and lightweight, which makes it so easy to carry from room to room whenever I need it. I mainly use it on my couches and my children's mattresses whenever they have the occasional accident, and it has never let me down.For such a small machine, it's incredibly powerful. It lifts stains with ease and leaves everything looking and smelling fresh. One thing that really surprised me is how much pet hair it pulls out of my furniture. Between my dog and cat, my couches collect plenty of fur, and this cleaner does an amazing job removing it while deep cleaning the fabric.I also love that it comes with several different attachments, making it easy to tackle everything from large cushions to smaller spots and tight spaces. The accessories are easy to switch out and make the cleaner even more versatile.If you're looking for a portable upholstery cleaner that's powerful, easy to use, and perfect for homes with kids and pets, I highly recommend this one. It's been one of the most useful cleaning tools I've purchased.Ver más

Best shampooer I’ve owned

As a mother of two children and a dog, this thing has really come in handy. I’ve gone through 2–3 small shampooers over the last few years, and no matter how well I maintained them, something always seemed to break. One of them started leaking around a seal, and I couldn’t find a replacement, which ended up ruining the whole shampooer.So I was pretty sad when it was time to get a new one. But BOY, AM I IMPRESSED.The suction on this shampooer is like no other. The attachment tools make it feel like I can tackle just about any job. Between little spills in the car and carpet to a unicorn rocking horse, I’ve used this thing for everything. I’ve shampooed our mattress, my parents’ trailer, and multiple couches, and I’ve even let other people borrow it.This thing is still going strong and feels like it has plenty of life left in it. It feels durable in the areas where the tubes on my other shampooers would normally start wearing out.The self-cleaning mode has also saved me SO much time, especially with our go-go-go family.Whether you’re cleaning a car, toy, carpet, mattress, or couch, I HIGHLY recommend this shampooer. It has easily been one of my favorite cleaning purchases.Ver más

Almost perfect cleaner

For many years I’ve always had the little green machine—pet parents, you know the one I’m talking about. For ages the little green machine was the only thing in existence, I had no other option. I’ve been through a couple little green machines because they get nasty and smelly. They can’t be cleaned due to all the nooks and crannies along with limited accessibility. They are heavy and cumbersome. So when the time came to get another cleaner, I decided to look around and see if something better was available. After much consideration, I went with the Shark Stain Striker HairPro Pet, and the main reason was because the entire thing comes apart and can be cleaned out. I’ve had it for almost a year and so far it’s been great. I wasn’t sure at first about using the yellow rubber nubby textured cleaning head as opposed to a scrubbing brush head, but it actually works so much better than a brush head and it rinses off so easily! Brushes allow hair to become entangled in the bristles and is a pain to clean. So now I’m a fan of the rubber cleaning heads. I love that the entire sprayer head comes apart and I can just rinse it all out, especially the clear window where I can see the cleaning solution getting sucked up. In my little green machine, that window is all clogged with hair and it can’t be cleaned out because it doesn’t come apart. The Shark dirty water tank removes super easy and is so easy to rinse out and there’s no nooks and crannies. The hair catch trap works amazingly well and allows me to throw the hair away instead of it all going down the drain. The solution tank is also easy to fill. I like the compact size, which is easier for me to carry and not as heavy as my former cleaning machine. It does a fantastic job of cleaning. I’ve had to clean up thrown up cat food(both wet and dry) muddy prints, and a huge amount of mustard that was spilled on the carpet, which is white unfortunately(not my choosing, it was there when we bought the house and someday will be replaced with more practical flooring 😊). Overall, this is a well made machine and cleaning up pet messes is a lot easier. WHAT I DON’T LIKE ::: There are some things about Shark Stain Striker that could be improved. The electrical cord REALLY needs to be LONGER! Some messes aren’t conveniently located within reach of an electrical outlet. The hose needs to be removable for cleaning. Even with using the “self cleaning” function, I can still see some bits of hair and debris in the hose, which probably is hung up on the ridges of the hose. I’m concerned that over time the hose might get nasty and grow mildew because it can’t be cleaned as effectively. The instructions have contradictory information that needs cleared up. The solution tank says to NEVER use hot water. The instruction manual says to “never use very hot water, even from the faucet. Never use boiling water. Never use microwaved water. Warm water is okay.” The solution bottle says to USE HOT WATER. Shark is not clear on what water temperature I should be using. Shark also says to only use Shark Deep Clean Pet solution, but then they also say to use ONLY Shark branded solutions (plural). They make it sound like I can only use the Deep Clean Pet solution and they also seem to say any solution is fine as long as it is Shark Branded. I DO NOT LIKE the Deep Clean Pet solution because it smells strongly like BEER. I don’t want my carpets smelling like beer. So now I’ve been using Shark Deep Clean Pro solution, which should still be OK to use because it’s Shark brand, and they even have a picture of a cat and dog on the bottle, so that implies it cleans up pet messes as well. It definitely smells better than the Deep Clean Pet solution.

One good attachment and the rest is one big disappointment

This is a really handy device to have around... although there are a few things worth mentioning. The attachment that works the absolute best with the highest suction is the one that's attached to the hose. All other attachments fit over this tool. That being said, for some reason, the suction isn't as strong on the attachment heads as it is on the spot cleaner. So if you need good suction, the original spot cleaner (I think it's permanently attached to the hose) will be the one you want to choose. This was a tad disappointing to me, bc the reason I got this device was bc we had some old pet bio messes stuck in our carpet. I also wanted to clean more carpet at a time and be able to use the wider tools. The tiny tool worked wonderfully. BUT, the purpose of the pet containment tool is to make it so that that type of mess doesn't have to be ran all through the machine. So I'm a bit disappointed about only being able to use the spot cleaner but 🤷‍♀️ oh well? I originally had gotten the bissell little green series, and sent it back bc I thought it had come with a pet containment tool. So I sent it back. What I'm saying is I went thru a lot to get to this product that had the tools I needed for my situation, now I can't even use them bc the suction barely works. For that reason I have to take off two stars. But if all you have are small jobs then this will work fine for you! When you get the box, you may as well throw out the attachments. I will add, DO NOT LET THE DIRTY WATER SIT IN THE RESERVOIR! 🦨 🤢 it smells BAD. And remember to utilize the onboard cleaning so the smell won't stay in your brush. Last thing I'll add is that although the onboard self-cleaning looks like it's wide enough to clean all attachments, it actually only cleans the original spot cleaning attachment. So that was another major disappointment. This device lacks in overall suction, compared to the power of the little green series by Bussell. I knew that and still went with Shark for the attachment versatility. Don't make the same mistake I did.Ver más

Great cleaner for a multi-dog&pet household!

I have now used this carpet cleaner for 2 months, and I love it! I’m going to lead with: I have 6 dogs, so we have had our fair share of accidents. I have used 3 other portable cleaners and this has been the best one. If you’re going to get this, invest in the ON BOARD SELF CLEANING. Not every model has it, do not make the mistake of ordering the less expensive one that doesn’t have it. My biggest issue with other cleaners has been the smell that you just can’t fully get out of it when there is a pet accident, this one does not have that issue. With the pet mess attachable head, ease of emptying the dirty water, and the onboard cleaning, it’s not nearly as big of a problem. Now that my dogs have all finally grown out of their velociraptor stages and we invested in this, I wish we had had this the entire time. We had our first incident in 90~ days over the weekend and it was a doozie. It’s also 8°F outside so we couldn’t air out the house. The Shark carpet cleaner did not let us down. We had the usual after smell of an indoor walking liquid fecal loosing pup, but it didn’t linger as it has with previous cleaners. I was also able to clean both attachments with ease as well as the rest of the machine. The pet attachment cannot be used on the onboard cleaning(I know, this is my favorite part. And I couldn’t even use it fully for this!) but that’s okay! I understand, the attachment itself has preventative measures to ensure it stays as clean as possible. It does leak a small amount where the pet attachment attaches to the other small attachment(so cool!), and that’s a little annoying wear gloves(you should be anyway!) and wrap a paper towel around as you hold it. You will have to remove it and do a quick clean an annoying amount (depends on mess size) of times when you just want to quickly clean up the atrocities on the carpet. It’s not perfect, but it’s so nice compared to the previous machines I’ve had that I cannot believe this hasn’t been available before. The pet mess attachment is the only attachment that doesn’t work with onboarding. I have used the other ones as well for day to day normal mess, and it’s been soo nice just to turn around, access the self-cleaner, and then put my machine away. No dripping, slightly dirty water, no hair or fuzz stuck in the spaces. Changing off the attachments is very easy. Usually I don’t bother with attachments, but this one makes it so easy to use all of them, I’ve used all 4 options. This is a smaller machine than previous ones, though it’s compact and dense. They have utilized what they do have and I think that makes up for it. So, in this case, size doesn’t matter.If anything changes about my opinion, I will update my review. Happy housecleaning!
