Hints and tips
Shark discount codes are the best way to get a discount on top-rated vacuums, but there are other great ways to save.
Sign up to the Shark mailing list: Save 10% on your first order and be the first to know about upcoming Shark sales, new releases and even exclusive deals simply by signing up for the brand’s newsletter, which is easily accessible on the website. You can also set up email alerts this way for when must-have products come back into stock, and be the first one to snap up the vacuum you want.
Sign up for texts: Wait for the 'Exclusive SMS offers and insider benefits' pop-up on the Shark website, enter your phone number and you'll be sent exclusive deals to your mobile.
Check out the 'Offers' section: Shark hosts a wide selection of offers on the website year-round and offers especially excellent discounts during sales periods too. The ‘Offers’ section of their website pulls together every discounted item for you, from bestsellers to older models. This section also highlights free gifts that you can get if you spend over a certain amount too. You can choose whether you want to shop upright or cordless vacuums within this section too, to get to those discounts sooner.
Shop the 'Bundles' section: Shark has created some exclusive bundle offers to save you money when you buy the products together instead of buying separately. There are both vacuum cleaner bundles and steam mop bundles so whatever flooring you're needing to give a clean to, you're covered.
Follow SharkClean on Instagram: Shark has an excellent, informative social media presence, with their Instagram offering a closer look at their bestsellers in customers' homes, as well as alerts on sales and discounts. The brand also hosts giveaways on Instagram, where you can win bundles including vacuums, mops and more. Most recently, they gave away a Spring Clean designed especially for pet lovers, featuring one of the best steam cleaners and a pet-specific vacuum.
What to buy from Shark
There are so many excellent products to redeem your Shark discount codes on. At Ideal Home, our top-rated vacuum is from Shark, the Shark ICZ300UKT Anti Hair Wrap Cordless Upright Vacuum Cleaner. It’s the perfect buy for those who want the ease of a cordless vacuum, but don’t want to compromise on power. Adept at handling pet hair and super versatile on the carpet and hard floors, there’s no better buy for your home in terms of value.
If you’re looking to spend a little more, then one of Shark’s newer vacuums, the Shark Stratos IZ420UKT cordless vacuum is an absolute five-star buy, with innovative features that we love at Ideal Home. It has absolutely incredible suction, which can adjust to the level of dust and dirt that it’s picking up, and holds charge excellently. Another feature that we love at Ideal Home is the Anti Odour capsules that you insert into the floorhead of the Stratos. These fantastic-smelling capsules eradicate those nasty vacuum smells that can start to arise after a few months of use, keeping things fresh as you clean at home.
If you already have a main vacuum, but need something for quick clean-ups, then Shark is absolutely one of the top-rated suppliers of the best handheld vacuums too. The Shark WV200UK Pet Cordless Handheld Vacuum Cleaner is the perfect handheld vacuum if you want something to freshen up countertops and it is good enough to display too, which is absolutely excellent.
How do we source promo codes and deals?
We have an Offers team that sources codes and deals from affiliate networks and from researching the web. The codes are tested to see if they work and then added to the retailer pages, alongside sales, multi-buy deals, friend referral discounts and newsletter sign-up deals. The codes and offers are checked regularly to ensure they’re still live and working, and new deals are added multiple times a week, keeping the offer list fresh.
Alongside this, we have a Commercial team that works with the brands to secure exclusive discount codes. An exclusive code is an offer agreed upon by the brand that is the best in the market, it’s normally a limited-time-only offer so it’s worth snapping up when you see it.
We also have a Copywriting team who update the FAQs, Hints & Tips and Buyers Guides sections with additional information on how you can save money at each retailer, alongside answering other queries you may have.
What if my voucher code doesn’t work?
Although we have eyes on the pages checking the codes and offers are working, sometimes they expire early or the details change suddenly. If you do find a code that doesn’t work or an offer has expired, please feel free to get in contact and let us know at vouchers.idealhome@futurenet.com.
How do we make money?
When you click one of our offer links, a unique identifier is added that lets the retailer know that you’ve come from our Ideal Home discount code page. If you then buy something, we get a commission from the purchase. A commission is a small percentage of the money that you’ve spent on your item(s).
