Rated for their incredible power, pet hair removal capabilities and versatile 2-in-1 design, it isn’t any wonder why Shark vacuums are some of the best vacuum cleaners you can buy. As a Homes Editor, I've been testing vacuums for years, and I also can attest that there’s no better time to pick up a bargain than on Amazon Prime Day. And while Prime Day doesn't officially start until October 8th, there are some great savings that you can pick up when you shop right now. 

The retail giant is offering some great discounts on impressive models like the Shark Clean Lightweight Cordless Cleaner that I’ve recently tried-and-tested, rating it highly in our vacuum cleaner buying guide. Originally $399, it’s now $249 at Amazon , making it an unmissable bargain with a 38% discount. 

And while we'll certainly see more fantastic Shark vacuum cleaner deals once Prime Day officially kicks off, I wouldn’t wait until then. So, if you want to upgrade your cleaning regime in style, here are the best early Prime Day Shark vacuum cleaner deals I’d sweep up now.
