Secondly, They are also different colours, with the NV601UK being electric blue, and the NV601UKT a lovely shade of Bordeaux.

When referencing the capacity in vacuum cleaners this refers to the amount of dirt and dust particles that the canister (dust bag/dust bin) can hold before filling up. Clearly this is a crucial element when thinking about which vacuum cleaner you want to buy as it gives an indication of how long you can clean before you need to empty the canister. In summary, there are some key differences between the Shark NV602UKT and NZ801UKT. Though both have Shark’s signature Lift-Away feature allowing you to go from an upright to a canister mode, quite importantly the Shark NZ801UKT also has DuoClean and Anti Hair Wrap technology. The Shark NV602UKT has the upper hand when it comes to dust capacity with an additional 33% more space than the NZ801UKT. Though the Shark NV602UKT weighs less (5.25kg) than the NZ801UKT overall in its upright form, the Shark NZ801UKT weighs over a kilo less in its Lift-Away canister form than then NV602UKT. When looking at the price the Shark NV602UKT works out typically cheaper than the NZ801UKT. In powered lift away mode, power is still delivered to the main floorhead for a better and more thorough clean. Our Weight Test ResultsOther than this, they clean the same and feature the same levels of power and suction. This is why we decided to feature the NV601UKT, it comes with the extra tool so that we can cover every possible feature. Features and Benefits Cord and Hose Length Its 8-meter-long cord and the swivel head allow convenient moving of this unit around. As such, it will enable you to reach most places, including tight spaces and bigger rooms, without extending the cord. There are integrated HEPA filters that seal allergens and dust inside. This unique feature translates to this Shark vacuum cleaner being among the best models for users prone to allergies. Well, not many people like cleaning during their free time as there are way more fun things to do. Nonetheless, the task gets even worse and exhausting when you are using a sophisticated vacuum machine. To avoid this, Shark made sure that the NV601UK is convenient and straightforward to use.

The wand and lift away mode combined also make floor to ceiling cleaning simpler and more versatile, with great reach so that you can access every corner of the home. The 2-in-1 Crevice and Dusting Tool, and this is great for reaching those high corners and difficult areas. I found that I could get into every nook and cranny in my kitchen with the crevice tool. The dusting brush is very gentle as well, which is ideal for bannisters and delicate areas, but also tabletops and other hard surfaces like counters. Even more impressive, the Robovac 11 boasts a remote control that uses two AAA batteries. Besides remote control, it also features a high-performance filter, AC power adapter, cleaning tool and a charging base. I was disappointed with the 8m cable that comes with the Shark NV601UKT. I did find myself unplugging more than I used to, and while it wasn’t a massive downside, it could have done with the extra length. The NV601UK vacuum cleaner from Shark is perfectly designed to handle a range of home cleaning needs, thanks to its versatility. It comes with a powerful suction component that makes it the real deal in cleaning carpets, rugs, stairs, etc.Shark created the sponge filter in a way that allows it to slide out of the unit. You can hence wash it in water and reuse it. According to Shark, clean the filter at least once in three months. But if you have several pets or large rooms, you may have to wash the filter more often. To test how the Shark VN601UK/T was able to cope with pet hair, we took a five-foot strip of carpet and combed actual dog hair into it. Then, we went over it with the upright vacuum cleaner for 20 seconds to see how much it was able to collect. The lift-away technology is the star feature and the one that really draws attention to the Shark NV601UKT. It transforms the machine to feel more like a cylinder vacuum. Afterwards, we also went over the carpet with a window blade to see what was left behind. You can see the results in the table below. Pet Hair ( Combed in Pet Hair over 4-foot area) The canister has its own flexible and versatile hose. This gives you total access to any difficult-to-reach spaces and tight areas such as your stairs and ceiling corners. Again, the handheld unit still sources power through the cord. And hence, don’t fret about the loss of suction which is familiar with some battery-powered counterparts. 6. Dust Canister and Filter

Pets. I always have a good test for pet hair because my dog sheds so much and has a double coat, which means fur that is absolutely everywhere; even on my coffee table. I vacuum every day, and it’s still somewhere. We can all agree that a sophisticated vacuum cleaner can be a real pain. And what makes the pain even worse is the sound of an obnoxious and loud machine. Well, the Shark NV601UK isn’t the most quiet vacuum cleaner available in the market. But it’s also not the loudest model either, with its sound intensity measuring around 80 decibels. This means you’ll undoubtedly hear it, but it’s not one to send you in search of painkillers afterwards.We decided to perform our own weight test, just to make sure you get the most accurate information. The table below shows you how much it weighs with the tools on board as well as without them. Weight (Without Tools) In this review, we’ll dive into details entailing the vacuum’s key components, its specifications and our final verdict regarding the appliance. Embark on this journey with me, and be sure to make a well-versed decision with your money. Let’s get right into it! Performance

With the NV601UK, it doesn’t matter when you do the vacuuming. Even in low-light conditions, the appliance does the job. On the unit’s front are some pioneering LED lights that expose any hair, small particles or dust that you may sometimes miss under standard indoor lighting. 5. Usability It was really easy to use and handle, but also did well cleaning the carpet on the stairs with the upholstery tool and the pet tool (I will talk about the latter in the next section). The power was great, and it was just a very simple job with no stress. However, it does help that the hose is quite long at 2.15m. This gives a wider cleaning radius, and also made above floor vacuuming a lot easier, especially for someone who can never quite reach those high-up cobwebs. The handle is comfortable to grip, as well as padded, preventing you from getting sore or tired hands when you are performing long vacuuming tasks. It takes some of the weight away, making the process feel effortless. Tech FeaturesFreedom to clean your space the way you want is pretty much anyone’s wish. Shark vacuums help you achieve just that, and the NV601UK offering nothing less than the best. It provides convenient lift-away technology access and, more essentially, two cleaning options in one. As for the unit’s weight, this Shark machine weighs around 6.2 kg. Yes, it’s pretty heavier than some small, cordless counterparts out there. At the same time, it’s lightweight enough not to give you trouble if you need to get it up and down the stairs. The lift-away handheld unit is much lighter, with a weight of only 3.5 kg. So, you’ll hardly feel the weight’s impact even when handling dirt on the stairs. 8. Accessories and Extras The NV601UK is specially designed to give you the freedom to clean, with no manoeuvrability issues or having to haul around any extra weight. Moving the appliance from one room to another is easy, from hard floors to upholstery. In other words, you don’t have to change equipment or switch modes..
