On the hunt for the best cordless vacuum? After moving to our new home three years ago, I got my first experience of having wood floors in our living room and kitchen.
It was soon realized what struggles I would have to try to keep these floors clean. When Shark Ninja proposed a partnership, I jumped at the chance to try their vacuum.
Here is my honest review of the Shark® Ionflex™ 2X Duoclean™ Cordless Ultra-Light Vacuum.
This is a partnership article with Shark Ninja. We were given product to review.
Wood Floor Maintenance Is A Lot Of Work!
There’s too much going on as a work at home mom to keep up with daily cleaning.
My husband and I share the cleaning jobs around the house, but even with two of us, maintaining wood floors is a big job.
Wood floors aren’t at fault; I don’t blame them. All they do it lay there and look pretty letting us tromp over them, leaving crumbs and pet hair behind.
The targets of my dislike were my cleaning tools which consisted of a broom, washable dust mop, vacuum and steam mop.
You know it’s embarrassing when you turn on the ceiling fan and cat hair rolls across your floor like a tumbleweed in the desert!
I would grab my dust mop and chase after the fur. But leave dust behind along the trim.
Fur loves to collect itself under the furniture and attach itself to the legs. The floor mop sometimes left more fur behind on the legs than was there before I mopped! And, our vacuum was another story.
A Vacuum That Sucked (and not in the good way)
When we moved in we’d bought a new vacuum.
It was your average vacuum and worked much better than our old one.
But it didn’t last. Within a year we had to replace it.
Our next vacuum burned out within three months and got a replacement.
It’s crazy because it’s not like we have a house full of dogs or long-haired cats.
It’s only two cats and three adults in our home. The third vacuum worked, but it had a big flaw in the engineering.
Dust, hair, and jams up around the belt requiring us to take it apart and clean it out every month or so.
I’m not sure what designer thought that was acceptable.
I was in urgent need of a good vacuum that would clean our wood floor, clean our carpets, and not make me need multiple cleaning tools to keep my floors clean.
I Tried The Best Cordless Vacuum – The Shark® Ionflex™ 2X Duoclean™ Cordless Ultra-Light Vacuum
Shark Ninja asked me to try out their Shark® Ionflex™ 2X Duoclean™ Cordless Ultra-Light Vacuum. Knowing how frustrated I was with our current vacuum I happily accepted.
And, I am very glad I did! Upon receiving our new Shark vacuum, I charged the first battery or two that come with the vacuum. The vacuum was very easy to assemble.
I wanted to test its power to clean. First I vacuumed my hall and bedroom carpets with our old vacuum. Then I went over the carpet with it.
It was surprising how much more dust, hair and debris it picked up that the old vacuum left behind!
Yuck this was hiding in our carpets AFTER I’d cleaned with our ordinary vacuum! That’s a lot of ick left behind!
The Shark® Ionflex™ 2X Duoclean™ Cordless Ultra-Light Vacuum is lightweight so it doesn’t make my arms tired when I clean.
The battery stays charged enough for all my floors. But, it has a second one if you need it, especially when you use the deep cleaning mode.
Both my wood and carpeted floors have never been cleaner since we moved in.
Additionally, using the different attachments, it sweeps up pet hair on furniture and dust from other surfaces. It works as a stand-up or a hand vacuum.
And, it’s super easy to empty.
Included with the vacuum is:
- DuoClean® Technology
- MultiFLEX™ Technology
- 2 ION Power Pack Batteries
- Double Charging Dock
- Charging Cord
- Duster Crevice Tool
- Pet Multi-Tool
- Bonus: MultiFLEX™Under-Appliance Wand Features a flexible elbow to clean under and behind appliances and hard-to-move furniture.
- 5-year VIP warranty for vacuum & 2-year VIP warranty for battery
I give this vacuum 5/5 stars. In my experience, it’s the best cordless vacuum I’ve ever known. Try it for yourself here.

This sounds like an amazing vacuum!!!! <3
It truly is. I couldn’t believe how well it swept up stuff on my wood and carpeted floors both.
I have a cat, a dog, a ferret and 2 kids. Enough said. I need this!
It’s so easy to use for pet and kid messes. I just grab it and go to work. No cords, no lugging a heavy vacuum around.
I NEED this vacuum. I got a new one last year and it is not as good as I hoped it would be.
That how we were with our last vacuums. They were very disappointing. Especially when we started having to the silly thing apart to remove packed in dirt and hair where the belt is.
Wow! That’s crazy how much it was able to get out of your carpets.
I know I was shocked. Thinking I’d been walking around that crud. Now, I know my carpets are getting clean.
This vacuum sounds absolutely amazing! I am definitely needing to update mine and this is a serious contender!
You’ll definitely love it. Shark Ninja did good when they designed this one!
This looks amazing – we have so much dog fur!
Me too!! I have 2 dogs but only the one that sheds and I swear she makes a whole new dog daily!! LOL
This sounds amazing! My home after the new year will definitely need it! 🙂
I absolutely love this vacuum. I vacuum every single day, and sometimes 2 times a day. I have a dog that sheds 24/7, and dog hair drives me crazy 😉
Wow, This vacuum sounds absolutely amazing. Definitely, need it for my home.
