UV420 specifications

The Shark UV420 is a cutting-edge cordless vacuum cleaner that has garnered significant attention for its powerful performance and advanced cleaning technologies. Designed for modern households, the UV420 boasts a combination of features that cater to both convenience and efficiency.

One of the standout characteristics of the Shark UV420 is its remarkable suction power, which utilizes a high-efficiency motor to capture dirt, dust, and debris from various surfaces. Whether you're vacuuming carpets, hardwood floors, or upholstery, the UV420 ensures thorough cleaning without leaving any traces behind. This versatility makes it an ideal choice for families with pets or heavy foot traffic.

A core technology featured in the Shark UV420 is its Anti-Allergen Complete Seal Technology, which works in tandem with a HEPA filter. This innovative system traps 99.9% of allergens and dust particles, ensuring that the air quality in your home remains clean and healthy. This is particularly beneficial for allergy sufferers, as the vacuum actively reduces the presence of allergens and maintains a fresher living environment.

Additionally, the cordless operation enhances flexibility, enabling users to clean without being tethered to a power outlet.

Another noteworthy feature is the UV420’s advanced brush roll technology, which is engineered to adapt to different floor types. The brush roll not only removes embedded dirt from carpets but also gently cleans delicate surfaces like hardwood. This adaptability gives users the confidence to transition between floor types seamlessly.

Furthermore, Shark has incorporated smart storage solutions in the UV420, with wall-mountable charging docks to keep your vacuum ready for use while minimizing clutter. The easy-to-empty dust cup also simplifies maintenance, allowing users to dispose of collected debris efficiently without any mess.
