Review: Shark NV480 Rocket True Pet Vacuum Cleaner

Guest blog by Matt.

Shark as a company originated in Europe before moving to Canada and then finally onto Massachusetts, America. Like Hughes, Shark is still a family owned company – now on their third generation – and is committed to developing innovative, effective products which are great value for money.

If you’re a pet owner or someone who suffers from allergies then The Shark Rocket True Pet is the ideal vacuum cleaner, with its turbine tool for removing pet hairs from sofas, carpets and stairs and it’s Complete Seal technology to ensure only clean air is released back into your home.

You’ll be able to reach all of those awkward places with the tools in the box which include a 13” flexi crevice tool, a dusting brush and the all-important air-powered pet tool. These can be stored on the vacuum for easy access when cleaning. All these extras combined with an 8m cord means that you’ll be able to get to every room of the house without the struggle of extension leads or swapping plugs to reach the other end of the room.

nv480-2The Complete Seal technology, certified by the British Allergy Foundation, means that 99.9% of dust and allergens are held in the vacuum and not back into your home and the air you breathe. The emptying mechanism has also been carefully thought about, with no direct contact with the contents to ensure tidy and hygienic use.

The body of the vacuum itself is compact for easy storage but doesn’t compromise on performance – with no loss of suction. The optional spinning beater bar is ideal for all types of flooring, with impressive suction on both hard floor and carpet. The Shark True Pet boasts an impressive A-rating for filtration, energy consumptions and carpet cleaning.

nv480-3The advance swivel steering combined with front-facing LED lights means that you’ll be able to spot hidden dust and debris lurking underneath your furniture and vacuum them with control and precision. For all of those places up high the detachable handle and tube (which you can attach all of the tools to) will make getting the step ladder out a thing of the past. The ergonomically designed rubberised handle will not only make vacuuming more comfortable but easier giving you more grip and control over the vacuum.

Overall, the Shark NV480 makes for a competitively priced, well-performing, well-equipped vacuum, which currently comes with a 5 year warranty (covering both parts and labour) included in the price, making it even batter value!

The Shark True Pet is ideal for anyone who wants a versatile vacuum for all flooring and is especially suited to those who have pets or suffer from allergies. Its well thought out design, swivel head, detachable handle and included tools will really make the chore of vacuuming, well – less of a chore.
