Key Features and Capabilities

The Shark StainStriker HairPro Pet PX251 offers a range of features intended to improve the cleaning process for pet owners:

  • Pet Hair Pickup: Designed to pick up three times more pet hair than the standard Shark StainStriker, the HairPro Pet is equipped with anti-clog suction tools and a hair filter to prevent clogging and tangling.
  • Powerful Suction: This model claims to provide strong suction, pulling out embedded stains and spots from various surfaces.

  • Dual-Activated Solution: Shark’s dual chemical tanks keep cleaning solutions separate until they mix inside the handheld tool. The included 6 oz Deep Clean Pet Formula and 12 oz OXY Multiplier Formula work together to eliminate tough stains.
  • Odor Elimination: The StainStriker is designed to clear away stubborn odors such as pet urine and smoke.

Cleaning Accessories

The Shark StainStriker HairPro Pet PX251 shares the same onboard cleaning accessories and onboard Rinse & Go self-clean feature with the Shark’s most recent addition to their CarpetXpert lineup, the CarpetXpert HairPro Pet EX301 carpet cleaner. This may appeal to users already familiar with Shark’s carpet cleaning products, as the PX251 comes equipped with several specialized tools designed for thorough cleaning.

  • Pet Hair Extractor: Features a cup that captures large amounts of pet hair for easy disposal.
  • Stain Eliminator: Equipped with reversible bristles to deep-clean embedded stains. The device also includes hair-gripping fins to pull deeply embedded pet hair from surfaces without tangling.
  • Mini Stain Eliminator: Designed with a wide suction inlet and scrubbing bristles for cleaning nooks and crannies of upholstered surfaces
  • Pet Mess Extractor: Collects pet accidents in a separate container for more sanitary disposal.
