Shark deals cover their ever-expanding repertoire of innovative vacuums, highly desirable hair dryers, and expert air purifiers. There's always some sort of saving on offer, but these are the ones it's actually worth shopping.
I've spent too much time eyeing-up my friends' Shark home appliances. First it was their classic vacuum, then their Flexstyle, which rivals most of the best hairdryers and hair straighteners we've tested. Then, this summer, the appliance of the season was Shark's expert air purifier. All of them are significant investments, but all of them are still worth every penny.
Given their popularity and quality, you could be forgiven for thinking that Shark sales are rare. However, we often see them offering discounts, so you don't need to practice too much patience to snag one for a saving. We've seen retailers offer up to £210 off their vacuums, air purifiers, and other expert household appliances. If you want to be sure that your Shark saving is the best, here's the place to be.

Today's best Shark deals
Shark savings have something to offer every room in your home. There's a reason the Shark vacuum has swept (or, indeed, suctioned) the nation off its feet: it works wonders.
If you're looking to curate a salon set-up in your home, you'll want to keep on top of the Airwrap-rivalling FlexStyle (our editor has compared the two in detail here) deals. For both of these Shark appliances, and everything in between, look no further than here.
Which is the best Shark vacuum?
We'd argue that the right Shark vacuum for you very much depends on your own requirements and budgets – for example, do you want a cordless vacuum or a corded model? An expert tester for w&h tested a range of the brand's vacuums, and found that their prefered overall model was the Shark Cylinder Pet Vacuum Cleaner with DuoClean and Anti Hair Wrap CZ500UK. This model falls into the middle of the price range for Shark vacuums, and is easy to store, lightweight, and very effective on both carpet and hard floor.
They also found the Shark WandVac 2-in-1 WV362UKT to be the best budget option; with up to 32 minutes running time, it also converts into a handheld, and is very lightweight to carry around your home.
And if you've got the money to splurge, the tester found the Shark Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Upright Vacuum Cleaner with Powerfins, Powered Lift-Away & TruePet ICZ300UKT (now available for £100 off) to be the best premium option. It's certainly pricey, but it's also got a huge 60-minute run-time, a brilliantly quiet eco mode, and a battery power display, so you know how much time you've got left to vacuum. These are some of the best models on the market to pick up if you spot them with a discount.
How long do Shark vacuums last?
It's good to see that Shark put their money where their mouth is. All Shark products - including vacuums - are guaranteed for at least five years. The warranty on most products is for 12 months, so you know that their design and quality control is amongst the best on the market.
If you read customer reviews, you'll see that people have their Shark products for a lot longer than the guarantee. Plenty have lasted for up to eight years, so if you calculate price per use, it's pennies. If you take care of your Shark product well, it could even last well past the decade mark.
Does Shark do Black Friday?
At woman&home, we've covered the Shark Black Friday sales for the last three years, and generally, there are Black Friday sales both at Shark and at other retailers like Amazon, Currys, and Walmart.
Shark has not shared specifics of this year's Black Friday sale event, but they recommend signing up for their newsletter to stay in the loop for this year's holiday sale. Stockists like Argos, Very, and Walmart haven't announced their Black Friday participation, but like Shark, are encouraging shoppers to sign up to their email list.
What Shark products were in the sale last year?
Last year, we saw brilliant savings of up to £200 off the best Shark vacuums, the best hair dryers, air purifiers, and more from the retailer itself, and up to 50% off upright and robot vacuums from stockists.
In the US, there were sweet bundles at Shark that included a 2-in-1 Cordless Anti-Wrap Vacuum Cleaner and a Shark Steam Mop, both for just £199.99, giving shoppers two Shark products for the price of one. Amazon also offered a huge savings of $182 on one of the brand's best robot vacuums, the Shark AI VACMOP Pro.
For the past few Black Fridays, we saw great savings from the brand's official website on the Shark Anti Hair Wrap Upright Vacuum for £150 off in 2021 and £130 off in 2022.
Does Shark do Prime Day?
Shark is never one to shy away from a sale, so we're almost certain that they'll be doing Prime Day this year. They often deliver some of the best discounts of the whole event, especially across their stick vacuums. One of our favourite discounts offered 50% off Shark's iconic Navigator Lift Away Upright Vacuum, which boasts relentlessly powerful suction, innovative design, and meticulous results across tricky-to-clean stairs and furniture.
Shark's Vertext Pro cordless stick vacuum was also discounted by 44% on Prime Day. The lightweight vacuum boasts a HEPA filter and the same allergen and suction credentials as the Navigator Upright vacuum. It's perfect for pet homes and small spaces, delivering Dyson results for a moderate (even more so on Prime Day) price.
Those are just two of Shark's super savings which we saw on Prime Day. There's plenty more where that came from. That's why we're already on the countdown for some more savings (although you can bet we won't be overlooking any sales in between).
