    Excellent instruction. Gave me the confidence to finally remove and wash the filters! Will gradually work my through the entire machine. Great to find an instructional video that goes so slowly and surely.

    So educational! I spent 2 hours cleaning mine, same model as this, basically did the tutorial twice (only washed the filters once). My shark looks so much cleaner! I almost went into shock at how much dust came out of my pet motor attachment, which was where I've lost suction the most! Keep doing what you're doing, you're a great help! 👍 🥰
    **UPDATE** My shark is working like new now! All the lost suction has returned, I'm so happy! 😍

    I have a Shark Powered Lift Away DuoClean NV801UK. It’s very similar to the machine demonstrated in your video.
    The main difference is that my machine doesn’t have the anti hair wrap technology. However the advantage I have, is that I can remove the brush roller for cleaning, by simply pulling it out of the floor head. I know Shark have said to use only water for cleaning the filters etc. However, I too found that my filters still looked dirty when using only cold water, so I made two changes.
    I now use warm water and washing up liquid to clean all parts that I used to wash using only cold water. The result is that my filters are virtually white in colour, the bin is totally clean with no smells etc and both rollers are perfectly clean and in pristine condition. I’ve had my machine for three years and as yet have not noticed any ill effects from the use of warm water and washing up liquid. I hope this might save someone from having to fork out for new filters/rollers, just because they have become dirty over time!
    Cheers!

    If you look after your filters they can last alot longer than 2 years. I leave mine to soak in warm soapy water for half an hour then give them a good rinse. As for the hoover bin I wipe mine with a hot damp soapy cloth after rinsing. It comes up like it's just come out of the box. Love cleaning.

I stripped it right down to the component level that you did and thoroughly cleaned every part. The offending item was an inhaler lid jammed behind the main roller, and a surplus of tangled hair which had reduced the suction prior to the noise, but the whe thing works like new again now after the service. I really appreciate your generosity with your time and skill. Cheers, Marco
