  Shark Navigator NV601- Rotator Lift Away Speed Upright Vacuum. I need to defer to my wife on choosing a vacuum. No, no, it’s not about this being her job. It’s more about my tolerance for anything less than a tumbleweed on our floors or a visible layer of dust on my electronics. My wife simply sets a higher standard so she wins the right to select cleaning tools. My wife has a preference for canister vacs. She rarely takes more than a brief look at these typically heavy uprights, and concludes she doesn’t want to wrestle with their awkward size and shape. This Shark Upright may have converted her. It is far lighter than she expected and easily maneuverable. My wife especially commented on the nice balance which makes it feel even lighter. And it’s versatile, as described later. Despite the comfortable weight, this is solidly built and everything fits well, with a solid connection “click’. The Shark is noticeably powerful, pulling dirt in from the sides even at a distance of inches. The canister is transparent, revealing how fast it fills. It empties without any need to contact the dust. If you use white gloves while you vac, they’ll stay white!! The simple design of the attachments and detachable hose makes them useful. The upright design is inherently limited when you want to vacuum under furniture. But in the reconfigured lift-away mode, along with the low profile attachments, it becomes relatively easy to reach "under".. The instruction book describes an available caddy if you want to use it in this mode extensively. I’d predict the caddy is especially useful for folks with a multilevel home. Noise level: In our average 40dB room, from a meter away, the vac raised the sound level to 70dB (typical noise in an automobile). Further away, of course, sound drops off. Filtering is accomplished by washable foam filters and a final HEPA filter. Included with Model NV601: Vacuum; motorized floor nozzle; hard floor nozzle tool (flexible head); pet multi-tool; 12” crevice tool; 25ft cord (wraps, not retracts). Features: Suction control; HEPA Filter; powered brush roll; washable filters; detachable canister, weighs 13.2 lbs.

  I have been searching for the perfect vacuum cleaner for quite a while. Let me present you with some detail of our dwelling to help you understand my plight with finding the right vacuum. We own a 150 plus home which has four levels if you count the basement. Our floor coverings range from old linoleum (that is slated to get replace in our next renovation, the kitchen.), hardwood, ceramic tile, carpet (berber and pile) and cement. All of the three flights of stairs are carpeted. Our ceilings range from 8ft to 10 ft, depending on what floor you are cleaning, and almost all of our windows are dawned with 2 inch wide plantation like blinds. Okay, that sets the scene for what I have to clean on weekly basis. Let my add that we are renovating our Master Bedroom, so there was a constant flow of construction dust while we tested this Shark Rotator Lift Away Speed Upright Vacuum System. This unit was packaged well, and in more pieces then I figured it would be. But it was super easy to assemble, I didn't even crack the manual. One of the first things I notice in a vacuum is it's weight, I'm quite sure it's because the amount of steps I clean weekly, and our original vacuum of 10 years, without naming brands... with it's cyclonic suction and british accented creator weighed a ton, we will call the Beast. This unit weighs almost a third of the aforementioned Beast. It's base also has the swivel design making it easy to navigate a house full of furniture. I love the Lift Away feature, it makes doing the crevice work around the living space and stairways so easy, but I did notice while doing this crevice work that the cord seems a little short, I was repeatedly having to search for a closer source of power, now remember our use case, four levels including the basement. Even with the Beast's long cord, I still could not go with out switching power sources. I measured the difference, The Beast's power umbilical is 31 ft. versus the Shark's 25ft power umbilical, not a huge difference, but enough that I noticed...several times. I appreciate that it has onboard tool storage, the only thing, is that one tool will always feel left out. It only stores two at a time, for us the hardwood attachment is only needed on the first floor anyways, so it will just be left behind. The greatest Feature of this particular vacuum, is it's flexibility, all readily available to you as you are vacuuming. It also has sufficient suction for a unit that is so small and lightweight. A fifth star could have been rewarded, with a longer cord and a third tool storage spot.
