New study from Shark reveals the secret to happiness is closer to home than thought

LONDON, May 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- SharkNinja, a global product design and technology company, has revealed the secret to happiness is closer to home than you think. In fact, its new research* suggests that the secret is your home. As a nation, we're prioritising our wellbeing, embracing healthier lifestyles and spending more on our health and wellness** and the data from SharkNinja suggests we should be including cleaning to our therapeutic options to support our self-care routines.  

The survey, which looked to explore the power of a clean home, revealed the profound emotional impact a clean home can have on UK residents, unveiling that a tidy space is not just about aesthetics, but a key ingredient for emotional wellbeing, productivity, and even family harmony. An overwhelming 88% of respondents agreed that a clean, organised space fosters a clear, focused mind, reducing stress and promoting a sense of calm and control.  

The benefits don't end there, 65% of respondents felt that having clean floors positively impacts their stress levels and two in five felt having a clean home meant they had better sleep. The positive effects extend beyond stress reduction with 83% of those surveyed saying they felt more productive and focused after cleaning their home. This suggests that taking the time to tidy up can be a powerful tool for boosting efficiency and achieving goals. The research also reveals the emotional uplift associated with a clean home: 

• 71% of respondents feel that having a clean home puts them in a better mood.
• 65% of respondents feel that having clean floors positively impacts their stress levels.
• 64% experience a greater sense of peace of mind.
• 24% believe a clean home leads to fewer arguments among family members. 

To support the powerful link between a clean home and emotional wellbeing, the Shark PowerDetect Corded Stick Vacuum Cleaner gives the best overall cleaning performance of any corded stick vacuum***. This innovative vacuum is designed to make achieving a clean and calming home easier and more efficient than ever before giving more time to embracing the benefits of a clean home. 

James Kitto, Managing Director (UK&I) from SharkNinja said, "At SharkNinja, we innovate in ways that benefit the consumer to make their lives easier. Our research clearly demonstrates that the benefits of a clean home extend far beyond just a visually appealing space. It's about creating an environment that supports emotional wellbeing, productivity, and positive relationships. We're proud to provide products that have an emotional impact alongside a practical purpose." 

Further supporting the research, Nicola Lewis, decluttering & organising expert said, "This research reinforces the conversations that I have with people every day around how a clean home makes them feel. Not only do people see the immediate impact from their regular cleaning, but they're also seeing a deeper, more emotional benefit that a clean home brings."
