There are a ton of good vacuum deals happening for Prime Day, but my favorites are easily Shark’s Prime Day vacuum deals. Sure, you can get some on-sale Dyson vacuums right now, but if you want to spend less and still get something super powerful, Shark is the way to go.
Not all Shark models are on sale, but an excellent stick vacuum and my favorite robot vacuum are available while the deals are still going. This is the last day of Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days event, so time is running out if you’ve been on the hunt for a new vacuum.

Shark PowerDetect Stick Vacuum for $300 (28% Off)
No matter where you look on the internet for a vacuum recommendation, you’ll usually find this vacuum. While the newer Shark PowerDetect Speed is my current favorite stick vacuum, the older Shark PowerDetect is close behind and packs more power and a larger dustbin for a slightly higher price. But since it’s on sale and the Speed isn’t, this one’s the better buy during Prime Day.
This vacuum is great. It performed best in my tests earlier this year against my favorite Dyson vacuum and Bosch’s new vacuum. The Shark PowerDetect can also bend in the middle, making it easy to get under furniture. The Clean & Empty version is also on sale—it comes with a charging, self-emptying base station. As someone who frequently loses the charging cord to her vacuums, I recommend going with the base station.
Shark PowerDetect UV Reveal for $750 (42% Off)
This is the best robot vacuum I’ve tried, with a UV light (thus the name UV Reveal) that spots stains on your floor—when it spots one, the robot will actually go back to clean it. It was satisfying to use on the ground floor of my home, which is almost entirely hard flooring—it even managed to spot stains I’d created months ago and had apparently never cleaned properly.
The Shark PowerDetect UV Reveal is usually on some kind of sale, but this is the lowest price we typically see, so it’s a great time to buy.
