Finding and securing a Shark vacuum deal is always going to be a good investment. They are considered one of the best vacuum cleaner brands, designing a tonne of choice - from cordless stick to bagged canister - to help you get the most suitable make and model for you.

Having reviewed a handful of the best Shark vacuums that are currently available to buy, we can vouch for their ease-of-use, performance and reliability. We are fully aware that they do come with an RRP that may be out of reach for some, though. This is how we can help; to reveal when, where and how to find deals on Shark vacuum cleaners.

With sales events such as Amazon Prime Day and Black Friday in the not-so-distant future, now would be a good time to start considering the type of vacuum cleaner you want and, ultimately, how much you are prepared to spend. Once you've agreed on those two criteria and know which online store you're going to check out, you'll be ready to pounce on a Shark vacuum deal.

Shark vacuum deals: where to shop

There are some fantastic Shark vacuum deals to shop, even outside of sales events. Check out our A - Z below so you can browse what is available.

Shopping advice

As seasoned professionals for finding the best Shark vacuum deals, we have a few helpful hints and tips to help you get to your new vacuum cleaner sooner. We'll also share how we validate the deals we find during the sales.

1. Do your research. Setting a budget and honing on the type of vacuum cleaner  you're after (canister, stick, handled or robot) will help you to narrow down the search. Looking around the brand and reseller sites will help with this. It will also help you to gauge if, indeed, you do want a Shark vacuum cleaner after all.

2. Sit tight (unless you need one now). By waiting for major sales events such as Prime Day and Black Friday you can expect to save the most. If you do need a vacuum cleaner like, now, then don't sit tight because stock may be limited - just make sure that you are comfortable with the price you're paying and it's not stretching the budget too much.

3. Check the pricing history. If you've found your new Shark vacuum on Amazon, use tools such as CamelCamelCamel to check the pricing history to ensure that the price isn't inflated. If looking on other sites, install the Chrome extension "Honey" which compares the pricing history with multiple resellers across a 120 day time frame. 

We use both of these sites when covering deals, as well as calling upon our experience. We tend to find that even though a deal may has expired it'll soon come back around within a few weeks, which is why it is worth sitting tight before adding anything to cart if the deal is no longer valid (if you can).

4. Keep track of your deal finds. This can help you to remember a pattern of discounts. Failing this, find a site like Top Ten Reviews to bookmark and come back to when you're ready to buy or the sales have started. This will show you all the best deals from one place, helping you to save money as well as the time and effort to find the deals in the first place.

When is the best time to shop for a Shark vacuum deal?

When you need a new vacuum cleaner, you need a new vacuum cleaner. Regardless of whether you have just moved into a smaller or larger house, or your old vacuum has just packed up, the time to get a new vac is now. 

Fortuntely, there is always a Shark vacuum deal to be snagged. Shopping directly at Shark will give you access to some exclusive offers, whereas on reseller sites such as Amazon, you can browse some older yet still perfectly adequate models.

If you can hold out until Amazon Prime Day and Black Friday, though, then these are ultimately the best times in the year to buy a Shark vacuum cleaner. We've seen discounts as deep as 70% off Shark vacuums during these sales, which we wouldn't expect to see anytime other than this time of year.

Will there be any Prime Day Shark vacuum deals?

Amazon have one of the most varied choice of Shark vacuums, and when it's Prime Day the majority of them see a discount. While we are unsure of the exact date for Prime Day to land, what we do know is that it'll be sometime in July. This will be the first Prime Day of the year with another to follow in the fall, acting as a teaser to Black Friday.

Expect to see discounts of up to 70% during both Prime Day events. You'll just need to be sure that you have signed up for Prime Membership to take advantage. If you'd rather not sign up at this time, fear not: Anti-Prime Day deals were in fierce competition with the reseller last year, which is (perhaps) something that we can expect to see again this year.

Can I get 4th July Shark vacuum deals?

It's likely that you can expect to see 4th of July Shark vacuum deals because there's always some discounts to be had. However, this particular holiday is more about the opportunity to save money on grills, lawn mowers and power tools.

This time in the year would be worth checking out the Shark store directly for any exclusives.

Should I be shopping Black Friday Shark vacuum deals?

Shopping for a Shark deal during the Black Friday appliances sales would be a guaranteed way to get a deep discount on one of these top-rated vacuum cleaners. Black Friday is one of the best times of the year to save the most dollars, and you aren't limited to just one retailer - all online stores that stock Shark products will have a sale on.

It's worth noting that during the lull between Prime Day and Black Friday, resellers are likely to inflate their prices so hold off buying anything during this time (unless you have to pay full whack).

What would the After Christmas Sales on Shark vacuums look like?

Shark vacuum after-Christmas sales are likely to be just as big as Black Friday. Last year, we saw a continuation of discounts across small and major appliances as resellers and brands alike prioritize clearing stock ready for the new year.

This time of year also bodes well for any New Year's resolutions to replace appliances, or finally complete a reno that'll require a clean-up operation. The choice of Shark vacuums on offer may be pretty slim, though, since the Black Friday sales often prove to be very popular which clears out the stockroom. 

Shark vacuum deals: FAQs

Is a Shark vacuum worth it?

A Shark vacuum cleaner has proved to be good at cleaning and filtration, with a solid design. They offer a lot for the money, but we always recommend checking out the sales at Shark for exclusives and resellers such as Amazon and Walmart to buy the highest spec you can afford.
