Shark AH450 and NV680

[adamthemieleman]

Hi all, I need some information from some Shark fans. At my place of work, we are having a range change and new stock is coming in. We are due the two forementioned models AH450 and NV680. Does anyone know anything about these?

 

[dys0nb0y]

I know for what I've found out there is going to be 3 new models in the United Kingdom the ah450 is really similar to the Gtech AirRam but its corded and one of them is like a coward liftaway but slightly smaller but I just hope they bring the big model over to the uk and also going to get the shark rocket true pet which is already available at Argos, I will put all the information at the bottom.

Here's the manual for the nv680

So here's a link to their Twitter page of where there's some pictures of the actual vacuum for when they were showing it off.

This looks very similar to the Dirt Devil roommate from years ago. I want one when they come out because it looks neat and will make a great accompaniment to my rotator powered lift away.

So where does the dirt go in the Shark Rocket? I don't see a dirt cup.

 

[fanonthefloor]

If you're looking at the picture its to the left and its clear.

 

[dys0nb0y]

It definitely looks like another great shark product.

 

[dys0nb0y]

Adamthemieleman do you know if your getting any other shark vacuums

 

[godfreys_guy]

Shark is becoming a bit of a dyson...

Take a product (Bissell Air Ram) that's lame and make it work!

 

[sebo_fan]

It may be Bissell in Australia, but the Air Ram is made by Gtech and British designed.

Godfreysguy,

Im intrigued, do you have an Airram for daily use? Whats your total opinion on it?

 

[danorob1]

So the US Version is already on the Target Stores website -
Called the Shark Rocket Powerhead - $199.99 -
Does not seem to be for sale yet -

[dedede]

To be like an air ram it would need to be battery powered...

 

[sebo_fan]

Well I hope it takes off. It looks quite cool, I must say. Reminds me of something else though...

 

[adamthemieleman]

We received the NV680, I have to say I'm rather impressed. We're still waiting on another upright, the Rocket and the Powerhead. There's loads due in, Hoover, Vax, Miele and Bosch.

We have had some new Hoover vision cylinders, same old rubbish I've come to expect of Hoover,some new Vax again the cheaper ones and the Air. It looks like Vax have taken onboard criticism as they now have a stretch hose and a suction slider on the front.

We've had a lot on new cordless, seems that's the way the market is going. A Morphy Richards Supervac which is less than super, the Bissell Multireach which seems OK, but I especially like the new Black and Decker ORA, apart from a few niggles, it's rather impressive.

 

[dys0nb0y]

Hopefully I'll be impressed by the new shark Nv680 as i orders mine on the weekend from Costco UK which haa it foe sale now and hopefully it should come tomorrow, shark has honestly become a fantastic brand the build quality s fantastic and design is just fantastic, I understand why its got so popular in the usa now, and shark and Dyson are the only bagless brands I ever recommend, unlike brands like Hoover and Vax which have silly little clips And cheap parts that break but shark doesn't which is fantastic, and also I've noticed shark has very impressive suction and air flow.
PS is any chance you got any photos of the new shark????

 

[dys0nb0y]

What I forgot to say I have the shark rotator at the moment which I've had about a week and I bought before I knew about the new shark nv680 I've been incredibly impressed but luckily I'm still able to return it.

This is for the rocket powerhead, it had a video of how it works and some features.

[sebo_fan]

I love the change over with the brush roll and a "garage" for the spare brush roll on the body. Now that's clever!

 

[hvrvaclvr]

I'm at Bed Bath and Beyond and they have it. It claims to clean carpets better than the Shark Rotator NV400. The dust cup seems rather small.

 

[tolivac]

Looks like this would be a "broom vacuum" type machine for cleaning small messes than for whole home vacuuming.Or a "crumb vac" for picking up crumbs and spilled dry cerials in the kitchen.

 

[fanonthefloor]

tolivac

Exactly it is meant to accompany your full size upright or canister. This would be used for daily clean ups not a weekly deep cleaning.

 

[tolivac]

Its just as easy for me to use my Kirby or whatever canister is in reach for those quick cleanups.
