Shark’s Answer to the PencilWash Has an Extendable Wand to Clean Tight Spots
The AquaReach may solve the trade-off between cleaning and portability for wet-dry vacs.
Shark has introduced a new wet and dry vacuum called the AquaReach, featuring an extendable wand designed to tackle tight spots and under furniture. This innovative design addresses a common frustration among consumers, who often create cleaning hacks due to the need rather than the desire. Shark's VP of marketing, Petra Oman, explained that the AquaReach was built around the way people naturally clean, combining vacuuming, mopping, and extended reach for greater efficiency.
The main body of the vacuum houses a self-refreshing brush roll that continuously cycles clean water to maintain its effectiveness. The unit comes with two water tanks - one for clean water and another for capturing solid debris. A distinctive feature of the AquaReach is its expandable wand, which includes a stain scrubber and detailer mop connected to the main water tank.
The stain scrubber is an active spray tool with suction capabilities, while the detailer mop is ideal for cleaning edges and tight spaces. This versatile tool can be used on various surfaces, including floors, baseboards, windowsills, and areas behind toilets and bathtubs. The AquaReach models offer a balance between the portability of the PencilWash and the powerful cleaning performance of traditional wet-and-dry vacuums.
Both models come equipped with a self-cleaning, drying, and sanitizing dock that cleans, dries, and sanitizes the brush roll, eliminating up to 99.9% of bacteria. The AquaReach is available in two models: the $400 AquaReach and the more powerful $530 AquaReach Pro. The two models will be sold on SharkNinja.com and TikTok Shop, with additional color options and retail availability expected in the coming weeks.
