## Key points

- Shark’s StainForce removed fresh pet urine and odour quickly.
- Older makeup and conditioner stains took several passes.
- The reviewer found it convenient, though pricey.

## Summary

A reviewer tested Shark’s cordless StainForce spot cleaner on makeup, conditioner and pet urine stains, including a 12-hour-old stain on a pale bath rug. They found it effective and convenient, saying it removed fresh pet urine and its smell within seconds and worked better than wipes or paper towels.

The device combines spraying, scrubbing and suction, and includes three attachments and a cleaning solution. The reviewer needed several passes on some marks and found that applying plenty of spray helped; they also described it as relatively quiet and easy to clean. It weighs 6.26 pounds, and the reviewer noted its price is high while judging it a worthwhile time-saver.
