We start by describing the different IONFlex models then show exactly what you get with the IF252 (what's in the box). We discuss DuoClean Technology, the fact that the 2X models come with 2 batteries, and recharge time. We also show a chart indicating IONFlex run time and compare it to the run time of the Dyson V6 and the Dyson V8 (in both low power and high power modes). In addition, we show that this is a 2-in-1 vacuum and we highlight the very simple and accessible controls. Finally, we like the length of the IONFlex warranty.

This guy has an ASMR quality to his voice.
Exactly!!
Fantastic review! Love the smoothness of your voice and the way you described every part of the machine and batteries. Thank you for doing what you do.
*you sir, are the Bob Ross of the vacuum world :)* _though i doubt you were ever a Vietnam drill sargent with a nick name like "ball buster"._ XD
Thanks for the Vid!! I decided on the Shark Ionflex Duo clean 2x over the Dyson as the Ionflex has a replaceable battery, headlight on the power head, has one power head for all surfaces and flexes to get under stuff. None of these features does the Dyson have. I keep my things for a long time and I knew that I would wear out the batterys and need to purchase new ones. When the Dysons battery goes bad the unit is essentially useless and not serviceable without sending in...My Ionflex replaced a 12amp Bissell Power FOrce which is working like it was new. after vacuuming with the IonFlex the Bissell did not pick up anything more! I was shocked!! Ionflex works as well as a high rated corded models!! WOW this suckers is a game changer!
Thank you so much! I'm convinced this is the vacuum for me
Good review! I've had this vacuum since 2016 and I LOVE it! You touched on just about all of my favorite points. It's a very nice tool to have around the house.
Unintentional ASMR at its finest!
I am just listening because this is some wonderful ASMR..
Me too. He could review a brick and it would be interesting and relaxing
I like the headlights, like a corded machine.
I have the IONFlex2. My daughter, who lives downstairs, has a Dyson. She comes up and borrows mine. Think that says it all.
Please do a review on. The rocket flex
Hello. Will you be reviewing the new Shark Ion P50 soon? It looks to be one of their better ones yet; powered lift away and cordless.
Like your shoes. Btw Im curious about Bosch PAS 18V LI. How good is it compared to Dyson's cord-less.
Have you heard if Zero-M technology will be incorporated into their cordless models?
So out of all the vacuums you have which do you recommend ?
Vs Dyson v7/8 ... what do u recommend
Hi Nigel, which vacuum is good for a low carpet and lots of pets?
if you dont mind me asking, which vacuum gave the best results on that suction gauge thingy you have?
Its all about the power to deal with large particles, and the acuity to reach small particles...
Why does the red light comes on the bottom part...then all of a sudden it turns green and starts working
How loud is it? Maybe it’s just the video but it sounds very high pitch.
Hi what is the run time with one battery ?
Great review as always! I enjoy your V7 vs V8 and V10 vs V11 Dyson videos. Have you thought about doing videos comparing other brands such as the shark stick vacuums VS Dyson stick vacuums? Just a thought.
That's a good idea. I have started to do this on the website and will try and extend it to the video reviews here.
Which cordless shark vacuum do you think is best?
A lot of reviewers showed that after vacuuming carpet, debris was still stuck to the head and dropped back to the carpet after they picked up the machine. It would be more helpful if you picked up the vacuum at 5:00 so we could see if anything is still stuck down there...
Is it supposed to be amost painfully loud? Got a very loud whine around 2khz which isn't present on the corded model.
Would you purchase this ION Flex or Dyson V8 ? Cant decide And does this have any filtration/Hepa ?
Have you done one on the V8 Animal by Dyson? I REALLY love that vacuum and want to buy one but just want to know what you guys think about it.
Hi Tina. We have done the Dyson V8 Absolute: czcams.com/video/mM_K3dV3r0U/video.html
Nice video. Will you be doing a video review of the Shark Apex AX 951/952 and the Speed Apex, AX 912?
I've reviewed the AX952 on the website and - as soon as I get over this darn flu - I will try and get the video reviews up.
VacuumAdvisor Thank you for getting back to me. Hopefully you’ll get a chance to review the Apex Speed AX912 too. I’m trying to decide if the Apex Speed AX912 is better overall and worth the cost ($80 to $100 more) over the NV801/803 Duo Clean Speed. Rest up and hope you feel better soon.
Simple and clear no nonsense, no frills review. Thank you!
Do you have to get on the floor to change from hard floor to carpet mode or is the switch above?
I have a Dyson Absolute and it’s ALWAYS jamming, so much, I just stopped using it in frustration.
Hi Katrina. The control to switch between carpet and bare floor is just above the vacuum handle so you can access it easily with your thumb.
I’m sure a ton have people have asked, but I’m curious. How many vacuums do you own? Do you keep them all? If so, please do a collection video.
Hey Nick. I actually have not counted but I've got quite a few. I keep them around because I often use them to compare to one another. Folks often want to see comparison stuff. A collection video is an interesting idea.
i was going to get this instead of dyson, glad i saw this with the excruciating noiuse, i will stick with the Dyson - it comes with the wall charging unit too, $60 more & worth it.
Do you feel like this deep cleans carpets as well or has as much air flow as the Dyson V8?
Shark is no where near as good as Dyson on carpets. Just look at the video "Shark IF250UK vs Dyson V7 total clean porridge" to see what I mean. Dyson V8 also has HEPA filter which no shark cordless has.
dtz1000 He's asking for facts not opinions. Doesn't sound like you have used the Shark to give that information.
blakaeg I not only gave a fact but I also pointed to proof for that fact. Did you even bother to look at that video I pointed to? It shows the fact that Shark duoclean cordless didn't clean carpet as well as a Dyson V7.
Second fact I pointed to is lack of HEPA filter in all shark cordless vacuums which, by the way, was not even mentioned in the video on things he dislikes about this shark machine. So that is another relevant fact. If you can't filter out the allergens from a carpet and just pump them back out into the air, then that is not deep cleaning a carpet.
If you can do better than what I have done here then go ahead.
dtz1000 I wonder how something like the Dyson V8 compares to a shark upright like the apex in terms of deep cleaning. Obviously probably not as well but the convenience of a cordless is so nice.
Silent Lucidity ASMR So you like a filter that is inferior to a HEPA filter and is not the right one for those with allergies? OK.
I also don't recognise what you say about cleaning the filters. The filters on the Dyson are very easy to clean and the HEPA filter hardly ever needs cleaning because the other filter on the Dyson V8 is so good at its job. Look at the video "Shark IF250UK vs Dyson V7 total clean porridge" to remind yourself which one is better.
The pet hair test around the 07:00 mark showed that the pet hair wasn’t sucked into the the debris chamber but just wrapped around the brush bar. Test failed in my view. What the video should show is how much of the hair was removed from the carpet and sucked into the debris chamber.
Adrian Olsen Bingo! That is one of the main reasons I returned it in addition to the terrible dirt separation!
I've watched several of your videos and now I have one question. I'm looking for a handheld for hard floors I already own a upright Dyson but now I'm trying to choose between the V8 and the Ion X40 which one do you like better and why?
hi
which one would u prefer shark or dyson
Can you recommend an upright vacuum brand that will last 20+ years? I had a 1/2 HP Panasonic that lasted me 20 years with only one belt repair that I sold when moving. Unfortunately Panasonic stopped making vacuums. It seems like many Vacuums are built very cheaply.
ive read and been told horsepower in the vacuum world dont mean squat. but i dont know what else to call my 6.5hp craftsman shopvac lol i know its really strong though.
Billy Darley, HP does indicate the amount of potential work(cleaning). A 1 watt vacuum cleaner would not be practical on a large carpet. However ignoring the agitator for a moment, A good indication of effectiveness would be a graph of vacuum pressure(Torrs) vs Airflow(CFM) for a particular Vacuum cleaner.
FiveFiveFive OneTwoOneTwo do you know of any examples or websites showing that stuff?
Billy Darley Unfortunately, I haven’t seen it. Most people would rather buy a vacuum cleaner from some guy with a British Accent in a TV commercial rather an informed decision based on actual data.
FiveFiveFive OneTwoOneTwo yeah I'm not super impressed with those. My interest in shark apex duo is based on reviews both written/ video and current owners feedback during face to face conversation. I'm really surprised all the positives I'm hearing about it. Not something I would have bet on. Don't look like much of a deep cleaner to me but for that I have a royal 4000.
Hi Nigel! How long have you had the shark ion flex?
Hey Brandon. We've had the vacuum for about 2.5 months now.
VacuumAdvisor that's nice! Would you recommend it?
I have the Duo, I sold the V8. The Shark is much,much better and get the motor pet brush head. Way better then my V8 was in just about every case except maybe looks? Subjective of course I like it but anyway the weight is the same power is killer and charging it is way,way better with replaceable batteries. Battery run time is great get the 2x! I could go on and on just saying I have experience with both and the Dyson loses!
Can you point me to he motor pet brush head's link? I want to give the Duo a try. But seeing that pet hair that I NEED TO REMOVE from the bristles/brush is very very turn off.
Terrible sounds, how was your experience? Did you wear ear plugs?
I agree. The look of Dyson vacuums is slightly better but the ion flex far outweighs any dyson vacuum.
What do you do with your vacuums
I've got a room full of them. But I like to keep them because I often do comparisons between machines or show a particular feature, etc.
You should make a video of all of them
V10 Mr. Advisor?
Hey VIC. I'll be getting to a written review of that unit (on the website) in a short while. Videos will follow. I'm a little slow on my latest vids - hopefully will pick up speed in the next few months. Got a backlog of reviews/vids to get done.
VacuumAdvisor ok then
Might want to check out the V10 written review on our website. Video to follow.
VacuumAdvisor ok thanks
Oh and also it has head lights the V does not.
Hey spectacular polo shirt that you’re wearing I would love to have it could you send it to me please
The IF250UKT is now £279 on their website. Down from £449. It's a bargain
4:44 you use the vacuum wrong
The noise sounds deafening
My house is clean
The noise of this vacuum is horrible.
Wearing dirty shoes INSIDE the house!! Yuck! why why why??
hes got those on in just about every video. maybe he doesnt wear them outside. i just use my rugdoctor regularly with strong sanitizers. doesnt help much cuz my carpet was already destroyed by the previous owners. but thats ok, they left thousands of dollars worth of tools and motorcycles in the garage. :)
Acuravigor47 okay but have you seen his floors? That carpet is spotless and his tile floor is the cleanest I’ve ever seen with those ceramic tiles. Usually the grout is black but his grout is the color it should be.
