Cleaning With The Shark IONFlex 2X Vacuum

7 December, 2017 by KatBp 64 Comments

It’s crazy to think that Christmas is almost here already! The holidays sure sneak up on you quickly. How many of you are planning to host a party for the holidays this year? I just bought a home a little over a year ago, and I haven’t hosted Christmas yet. I’m sure my time will be coming soon. I may just host this year too, but we haven’t figured that out just yet. If you are a host, than you know that you most likely have to get your house ready, and that means cleaning too. I don’t mind cleaning at all, but when you have a lot of guests over, that’s when I typically do more cleaning than usual.

It’s great to have the right products for cleaning too. A vacuum is a must in my home. In fact, the Shark vacuums are one of our favorites. We’ve already got three Shark vacuums because we love them so much. We recently got one of the newer ones that is cordless, and it’s amazing! It’s called the Shark® IONFlex™ Cordless Vacuum. Who would have know that you could get a cordless vacuum now! It’s nice not having to deal with the cords always getting in the way. This was one of the best vacuums they have made that I own!

It is so nice not having to plug-in a vacuum anymore. I can go in every room of the house without unplugging or plugging in a cord anymore. This vacuum does come with two rechargeable ION power packs, so you can keep going. While one is charging, the other is in the vacuum being used. That means while I’m vacuuming, I can have the other charging. This means I won’t have to worry about a battery being dead, because I can use the other. I love that!

The first thing I noticed when I took this out of the box, was the color. It was so beautiful! I love the color blue, and this color was gorgeous! Some may say they don’t care about the color of their vacuum, but I actually do. I won’t lie, I was excited over the color! It was one of my favorite colors, so it was exciting to see it in person.

One nice thing about this vacuum, is that it can clean up both carpets and hard wood floors. I hate sweeping, so this vacuum does well at cleaning up my hard wood floors. You don’t have to worry about the vacuum scratching up your floors either. They have a special setting for being on hardwood floors. No need for a broom when you have this vacuum. It will clean up all those floors for you.

This vacuum is extremely powerful too. It can suck up just about anything. I was amazed to see what it was sucking up so quickly and easily. It’s nice to have a vacuum with such power. I won’t have any problems keeping my carpets and floors clean with this vacuum. It’s great at picking up a lot of messes.

Here are some of the great benefits of this vacuum:

  • Cordless convenience
  • Converts to a hand vacuum
  • Removable battery
  • DuoClean® Technology
  • MultiFLEX™ Technology
  • Freestanding in MultiFLEX™ storage mode
  • LED headlights
  • More suction power †when both vacuums are in extended runtime mode
  • Longer runtime when using two batteries consecutively in  Shark® IONFlex™ Cordless Vacuum

The bristle brush on the bottom of the vacuum is great for deep cleaning carpets, and it has an additional soft brushroll to pull in larger particles and directly engage floors for a polished look. I love that it’s a bright orange color too. It makes it easier to find all the hair and dirt that may get trapped in. This makes it a lot easier to clean out as well. I can easily see all the hair that gets stuck to it, and that makes for an easier cleaning for me too. It even has the LED headlights on the front to help see things clearer while vacuuming.

I love the charging port. It does a great job at charging up quickly too. You shouldn’t have any problems with always being able to vacuum since it does have the two battery packs. I love that it will have three blue lights on it that indicate when the battery is fully charged. It’s nice to have that light up bright so you can actually see when it’s fully charged.

It even came with three different types of brushes. These are great for getting all kinds of areas of the house. I have two cats, so the pet tool is great for that. I love to use that on the couches since my cats love to lay there. That as well as our chairs. It’s great at working to get rid of all the pet hair. If you have delicate objects, the anti-allergen brush is great for those areas. I love using this around my bookshelves and other shelves. It works great at going around all the knick knacks and such. Than you have the crevice tool which is great for corners, baseboards, tight spaces or ceilings. This is great for reaching those areas that are higher up where you normally wouldn’t be able to reach. It makes it easier than having to stand on a chair and reach up to those high spaces.

I love how you can bend this for easy storage as well as making it easier to clean under items, like beds and couches. One of my older vacuums I had, wouldn’t stand up well on its own, so I really like the way this one gets stored. I love that you can bend it like this and put it away. It takes up less room this way as well. It doesn’t stand as tall as a regular vacuum would, so it can be stored easier.

I love using the anti-allergen brush for our electronics by our t.v. It always gets very dusty there, so we are constantly cleaning it. Now that I have this tool, I can easily clean that area. It’s been a lot of help cleaning around the t.v. too. I use to clean it almost daily because the amount of dust it would collect so quick. I would have to move everything around to do that too. Now I just need to use this tool, and it gets the job done a lot quicker.

I also love using the pet tool for my couch. Since my cats do love laying their often, it’s great to use for cleaning up all their pet hair. It does a wonderful job too. There isn’t always just pet hair either, so it’s great for all around cleaning the couch. I absolutely love this! I like to keep my couch clean, so this does a wonderful job with that.

Cleaning the ceiling fan has always been a pain for me. I always have to take a chair and stand on it because I can never reach it to clean it. We all know how dirty the fan can get, and it gets dirty quick too. With the crevice tool makes it easier to reach those hard spots, like the ceiling fan. It did a great job cleaning it too.

The Shark® IONFlex™ Cordless Vacuum is truly amazing! I could never go back to any other vacuum now. I love so many things about this vacuum. It can be useful for cleaning so many areas of the home. It’s officially my go to cleaning device.

What parts of the home would you start cleaning first with this Shark vacuum?

    No more power cords wrapped getting wrapped around your legs, or having to move said cord to vacuum where the cord was. I love that it has 2 batteries, so no worry of it dying in the middle of vacuuming.

    The crevices, corners and ceiling fans are always forgotten when we clean and vacuum so this one is a great tool. I love to keep a clean house and vacuum a lot but I may have to get this vacuum for allof those special features.
