Overview

Shark makes this StainForce as a handheld, cordless stain cleaner with a tool for stains and a narrow tool for seams. Dual-activated cleaning solution and a reusable spray bottle head come in the box, along with a caddy.

The reason to consider it is the quick response to spills, with suction and solution in a small body that stores in a caddy. The limitation is the small tank and missing runtime, so it fits spots and not a whole carpet.

Who it's for

Pet owners and parents who face fresh spills on rugs, stairs, couches and car seats and want a cordless tool within reach. Those who want to clean entire carpets, or need a known runtime, should look at a full size carpet cleaner.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Cordless and portable
  • Stain tool with reversible bristles
  • Crevice tool for seams
  • Solution and caddy included
Cons
  • Battery runtime not listed
  • Not for whole carpets
  • Solution refill source not listed

Performance notes

The cleaner sprays solution onto the stain, agitates it with bristles and pulls the liquid and dirt back through suction. The tank size limits how much it can clean per fill, and results depend on treating spills early.
