One key brand that crops up a lot in my roundup of the best vacuum deals is Shark. This brand has really come up in recent years, and is now perhaps the biggest competitor to Dyson. Shark’s range is wide and varied, with your regular cordless stick vacuums, but also uprights, corded stick vacuums, robovacs, and plenty of other kinds of floor cleaner. Models come and go regularly, and it can be difficult to make sense of the range (I know this from experience!).
Today’s best Shark vacuums offer strong cleaning power and generally excellent value for money. Shark has won over customers with its affordable pricing, and simple innovations to improve usability – the forward-bending wand for cleaning under furniture is a great example.
Black Friday is always the final Friday of November 2024, so this year it’s 29th (tomorrow). However, long gone are the years when it was just a one-day event. This year, Dyson launched an early sale at the start of November (across the US and UK) and Shark UK released ‘Black Friday exclusives’ in the first week of the month, too.
In the UK, the deals got steadily better as the month progressed, although to be honest, they’re still slightly underwhelming at this point.
In the US, there were a handful of excellent offers early in the month, followed by a lull in the third week. By the weekend before Black Friday, the deals had come back in a big way, however, and right now there are plenty of excellent offers to choose from.

I’ve tested and written about vacuum cleaners extensively as part of my job, so I know what makes a great vac, the pros and cons of all the big brands, and what features to look out for.
I’ve also been keeping a close eye on prices, so I can tell you which of the many, many deals flying around are worth paying attention to. Let’s get started…
