What is the Shark StainStriker?

If you aren’t yet familiar with the Shark StainStriker, you may recognize the brand for creating editor-favorite high-powered hair tools and vacuums. The StainStriker is no different—the hand-held remover combines custom stain-removing formulas to lift the spill and the scent with no rubbing or scrubbing required. Instead, the suction technology wipes the stain clean without leaving behind residue and odors. While an entire motorized tool may feel egregious in comparison to a bottled spot remover, the StainStriker is lightweight (it’s less than 9 lbs) and compact, making it easy to use and store away. What’s more, the StainStriker can be used on its own as a regular carpet cleaner the next time you need a refresh (no spills required).

The kit includes two cleaning solutions, a Deep Clean Pro Formula and an OXY Multiple Formula, that combine in the machine to lift the stain while simultaneously cleaning the surface. The StainStriker also comes with a crevice tool, a bristle tool, a pet tool, and a hose cleaning tool, for customized use.

On our busy days, the last thing we want to do is spend our free time cleaning. For those who love a do-it-all item, the StainStriker is a handy tool to have, and at its sale price, it’s a no-brainer investment that will come in clutch throughout the summer months and beyond.
