What Shark's runtime figure means for the IX141

Up to 40 minutes, with stated conditions

Shark lists up to 40 minutes of runtime for the IX141 and says it was measured at the hand vac in standard mode, without accessories. Those conditions are part of the figure, so the 40 minutes applies to that setup.

One 21.6-volt battery

Shark's spec table lists one battery included, rated at 21.6 volts, and identifies it as a lithium-ion battery.

A hand vac built in

Shark says the IX141 transforms to a hand vac for lightweight above-floor cleaning. The hand vac is also the configuration Shark used to measure the 40-minute runtime.

Other features Shark lists

Shark lists LED headlights that illuminate hidden debris and a low-profile body shape for cleaning under furniture, plus an XL removable dust cup with a CleanTouch Dirt Ejector.

How to use it

  1. Detach the removable hand vac when you want lightweight above-floor cleaning.
  2. Use the LED headlights to spot hidden debris as you clean.
