FROM being too noisy to not picking up dirt properly or constantly breaking down, no one wants to have a shoddy hoover when trying to clean the house.

Therefore, when it comes to recommendations for these devices, most people would trust cleaning professionals, as they use them on a daily basis.

This is why Gemma Louise known as on social media has shared her insights. 

She has given her recommendations, which actually go against what Mrs Hinch has previously suggested, which is the Shark hoover. 

Taking to TikTok, the cleaner spoke to her 30,800 followers, and gave an honest insight into what she believes is the best hoover going. 

She says: “I'm not going to say anything bad about Mrs Hinch. She's done really well; she's a very good businesswoman.

“Some of the tips and hacks that she's done back in the day were outrageous. 

“The amount of money that woman got people to spend was just crazy - clever, but really crazy.”

But Gemma says that there is one thing she can’t agree with Mrs Hinch on, which is the Shark hoover.

She continues: “I'm guessing they paid her to promote Shark hoover.

"There aren't many hoovers that I haven't tried, and you all know that I love my Henry. 

“I also know that they're big and bulky, but they're just really good for work; they never go wrong.

I'm a cleaning pro & I never use limescale remover on my shower - my £2.60 Poundland trick is so much more effective

"If they do, it's something really simple, and they do leave a good hoover line.

“The other hoover I always recommend is a Miele. 

“This is why I just don't understand the Shark craze. 

“They're the biggest, bulkiest, most annoying, always-need-cleaning hoovers, and I will never ever get over the Shark craze. 

“I've been sent a lot of hoovers in my time.

Yeah, I didn't get on with the Sebo hoover, but I've been sent G-TEC. That's okay for a cordless. 

I cannot stand a Shark hoover, and I really just don't understand the big craze

“When I go to a client's home and I see a hoover that I haven't tried, I try it.

"And I will always stand by...Sharks are probably the worst hoover I've ever used. 

“Now, this is just my opinion - like, this is just my opinion. I'm probably going to get loads of hate for it. 

“But yeah, I have to agree; I cannot stand a Shark hoover, and I really just don't understand the big craze."

Henry hoovers cost £140 from Argos, whilst Shark hoovers cost between £150 to £240.

Many people rushed to the comments section to share their thoughts.

“Mum has a Miele, they are fab.” 

Another added: “I love my Miele cat and the dog it picks up all the cat hairs.”

A third said: “Henry is the king of kings!”

But there were disagreements, as others defended the Shark hoover. 

One wrote: “Shark all the way, it’s outlived three Dysons I had. 

“Henry is too heavy and not great for stairs. Mrs Hinch taught me a lot of tips.

“Yes she’s made a ton of money but she also gets a ton of hate.”
