I had high hopes for the Shark CarpetXpert EX201, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to my expectations. While the design is sleek and modern, the actual cleaning performance falls short, especially compared to other carpet cleaners I’ve used. The biggest issue is its lack of deep cleaning power. It struggles to remove set-in stains, and even after multiple passes, my carpets didn’t look much different. It seems to do an okay job with surface dirt, but for anything more than light cleaning, it just doesn’t cut it. The suction also feels weaker than expected, leaving carpets damp for far too long after cleaning. Another frustrating problem is the small water tank, which requires frequent refilling—making the cleaning process more time-consuming than it should be. Additionally, the machine is louder than expected, and while noise isn’t always a deal-breaker, the high-pitched sound makes it particularly annoying to use. Overall, the Shark CarpetXpert EX201 was a letdown. If you need a carpet cleaner for quick touch-ups, it might work, but for deep cleaning, there are much better options out there. I wouldn’t recommend it, especially at this price point.

I have only used this machine once but it did a great job. My carpet wasn’t soaked like with other machines. It is very easy to clean after using. The only downside is that the clean tank of solution does go quickly. Overall, we are happy with our purchase.

This shampooer did not suck up water hardly at all. My carpet ended up being soaked. And this was right out of the box. Checked all the connections and made sure there was nothing blocking the hose. Took it back the next day.

This was so easy to use and renewed my carpets to nearly brand new! I would highly recommend, it’s light weight and really gets out deep down dirt. I’ve owned other carpet cleaners before but nothing is as easy as the removable clean water and dirty water tank being so easy to handle without having to worry about spilling one or the other. The dirty water tank is a breeze to transport without worrying about spilling dirty water on my clean carpets. This design was as easy to use as my regular vacuum cleaner. I will be purchasing another two of these for Christmas gifts!

Fantastic Machine

5 out of 5 stars
Blueangel - 3 months ago

I have owned Bissel, Hoover, the top lines right to the big heavy machines. This unit is by far the easiest and best performance of any unit I have used. On a normal vacuumed carpet with appropriate dirt for it, this unit cleaned and the carpet was dry to the touch in an hour. The nastiest ground in dirt with an obviuos foot path from the door on a much neglected carpet took several run thrus and some stain cleaning, so all the tools but the pet one was used. The carpet with a fan on the floor took about 4 hours to dry, the look now of the carpet was well worth the effort and dry time. None of my other machines could have produced these results in the same amount of time. A statement by a prevous purchaser commented about the cleaning solution being available only at shark, that is no longer the case, can be purchased from multiple sites now. I would have no problem recommending this unit.

Love this machine. Cleans well, light enough I can navigate it. The pet stain striker definitely makes life easier. I have 2 dogs and stuff just happens. I want to add that the service from the company was great. My original one stopped spraying after 6 months. Called the company, we did a one way video trouble shoot in real time, that day. We could not 'fix' it. The company didn't miss a beat. Sent a replacement that day. Great machine, great warranty (5 years) great company support. Doesn't get much better. This cleans better than the professional cleaning I'd had dome 3 months before I purchased this. Well worth the $.

This carpet cleaner really does an amazing job. I have 2 dogs, 2 cats, and two little boys. So messes are bound to happen. It gets deep into the carpets to get stains out and eliminates any odors. The only thing I dislike is that target carries the carpet cleaner machine but does not carry the refill for the cleaning solution. I hope this changes in the future because I would definitely buy the carpet solution from target.
