Shark offers a 12-month warranty on the main units of its vacuums. That excludes parts and accessories which can be purchased separately. In order to access this warranty, you need to register your Shark purchase within 28 days. If you purchase from the Shark website, this is automatically done, but if you purchase from a third party, then be sure to follow the instructions that you’ll receive on your purchase in order to access these benefits. On the Shark website, you can find a full list of issues not covered by Shark’s standard warranty.
