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) 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. As is often the case with Shark vacuum cleaners, the bar is not removable, and so if it wears out the whole head will need to be replaced. I’m still waiting for a Shark that has this much-wanted feature. It comes in at 78dB, which is quieter than a lot of vacuum cleaners were before the EU legislation came into effect. It is quite pleasant to use and not too bothersome, especially with the extra padding provided by the filtration system.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. Complemented with multiple accessories, each carefully designed to save you time and effort, this reliable, versatile upright vacuum gives great results every time. Use the included tools in handheld mode to vacuum sofas, skirtings and car interiors. Experience the freedom of Lift-Away Technology. Exclusively developed by Shark, Lift-Away instantly converts your traditional upright in to a portable vacuum, giving you a deep clean with no loss of suction*. Easy to use – Switch between carpet and hard floor modes at the touch of a button. Easily move around your home with swivel steering and an 8m power cord. LED headlights in the floorhead help to illuminate hidden dust.

The instruction manual that comes with it is also very simple to follow, and I had this model put together in no time at all. All you need to do is snap the handle and the main body together and, BAM, it’s all ready to go.

What's Included

I was really impressed with how clean and fur-free everything was by the time I was done. The only downside is that it’s not a powered tool, and I feel the experience could be more thorough and efficient if it was powered like some competitor brands.

Should I Buy the Shark NV601UK/T? 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. 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.
