Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love my Shark Lift-Away Vacuum. I've had it for a while so it's been tested for performance. This model is stronger than others I had in the past. It does have a suction ring which allows the vacuum to have less suction. I love how it picks up everything and makes those vacumm lines. It empties the identical way the others do too. It's efficient, and stores away easily. It is a bit heavier than my other Shark vacuums but not much where I wouldn't buy another one. For the price it is one of the best and least expensive vacuums on the market which actually keeps their word never losing suction.

We had a Dyson, but my wife didn't like it. One of our friends had this one (Or one like they do look a little different. ) So we tried this one. It is light, she says it does a better job than the Dyson.... So she is happy I am happy.

Only had this vacuum for a few days, but I think it is well worth the price. We have owned 2 Dyson vacuums, and both of them had battery issues within 2 years of owning them. To spend over a thousand bucks on two vacuums to not last 5 years made it easy to invest in one for under 200 bucks. This Shark vacuum is very simple to use. Some complain about the maneuverability, but me and my wife have no issues with this. Some have complained of the cord length, but it covers a good area in our opinion. The suction is great, and on our hardwood floor, it pulls lint in from areas that are not under the vacuum. The tools are easy to use and have great suction power as well. I would definitely recommend giving this vacuum as chance.

Powerful vacuum very easy attachments cleans well quiet

I'm a young adult and have never purchased a vacuum cleaner before. I read several reviews and product specs before purchasing this model. My grandma has the Rocket and swears by it. I considered it, but after looking over the different multi tools and the "Lift Away," as well as the cheaper price, I went with this one. I love it! It's light weight (14 lbs I believe, I can lift with one arm easily) and a little smaller than regular vacuums. It all snaps together and has red tabs where you can separate the pieces, if necessary. It has awesome suction power, just as advertised. It also has a 5 year warranty, so as long as you treat it well, you can replace it or order parts (part numbers conveniently listed at the end of the manual, with pictures) for it. I have high pile carpet and hardwood floors and it works great on both. I tested the dust tool and crevice tool as well, and they both work great. You can adjust the suction on the neck near the handle which helps with these tools and high pile carpet. I kind of wish the crevice tool was a little longer, but there is a separate, longer tool for under appliances that will probably work for what I need it to. It's easy to lift the handheld part of the vacuum away, and to remove the handle for the tools, as well as to snap them back in place. I'm also happy that there are no bags to worry about, and that cleaning the filters is pretty easy. There is one model above this that has little head lights and a couple of different tools I believe, but I wasn't sure if it was worth the $20-40 more (I purchased this vacuum while it was on sale, so I'm not sure the exact price difference). I'm not sure if it matters, but I am using this to clean my one bedroom apartment. The cord is certainly long enough for me to use the same outlet throughout my home.

It picks up everything off my carpet, it's not noisy, lightweight and doesn't lose suction. Attachments are awesome as well. I highly recommend this vacuum!

I have three cats that shed and track litter everywhere and this vacuum makes it look like I don’t have any pets. Takes up little space and great suction. Highly recommend!

I've owned the Shark Navigator Lift-Away DLX for 4 weeks now and I love it! I have carpet, area rugs, wood floors, and LTV vinyl flooring. My Hoover had great suction but the HEPA filter warped a little over a year after purchase. I switched to the Shark Navigator and found it to be a wonderful surprise. Overall, I find the good qualities excede the bad. As for the good qualities, I found it to be lighter and easier to maneuver. I have used it on all the surfaces except the LTV vinyl. The suction is wonderful and I can feel it pull as I vacuum. The weight is light which works for me as I am older. Its swivel ability makes maneuvering so much better and no more banging against the walls, furniture, etc. The cord is as long as my Hoover so no change in that area. Because the suction is so much better, I've observed less junk in the canister as I continue to use it. There are some down sides to the Shark. The canister is difficult to clean thoroughly as it is small and has tighter crevices. The filters, though easy to clean, the thinner felt filter is breaking down quickly. Luckily I bought extras from Amazon. The Shark Navigator Lift-Away DLX is an excellent vacuum cleaner. It's good qualities make me happy I switched.

Omg wow wow wow I love this Vacuum. I have had in the past $350 and $400 vacuums this....but this works better and its less in price! it sucks the dirt like omg I have never seen before I am soooo pleased! wow what a gold nugget pick! I was not expecting it to be better than my other more expensive name brands. It is now my favorite of all time. The Shark Navigator is the one to get makes also a great gift they will love you for it! JUST GET IT!!

Easy to assemble with no tools! Lightweight. Love the maneuverability into small/tight spaces. Love the bare floor and carpet switch. It really does an excellent job picking up dirt and cat hair. Runs quieter than previous vacuums. I am replacing a six year old cheap Bissell. The only thing I wish it had was a bigger collection bin. I emptied it three times (basically after each section of my apartment).

I rarely do reviews but this vacuum deserves one. I love that it’s lightweight, a good height (I don’t have to bend over using it), powerful (I am appalled at how much it keeps picking up!), quiet (can hold a conversation over it), easy to empty, has a cord holder to keep it up while using, and so manoeverable, even on stairs. And so reasonably priced! I’m hoping it will serve us well in the years to come. We’re in our late 60s and need all the above qualities.

[Employee of bestbuy] The Shark Navigator vacuum is a good and easy to use cleaner. It has strong suction and picks up dust well. It works on carpets and hard floors. It is also lightweight and easy to move around the house. A good feature is that you can remove the top part to clean stairs and furniture.

Works like a charm. The suction is good and picks up everything on the ground. The cord is very long so it allows you to clean without having to switch outlets all the time.

The Shark is an amazing vacuum cleaner! It is running circles around my old Kirby vacuum. In fact, the suction and power of this machine is far better than my heavy old vacuum. I love my Shark vacuum! It pulled dirt and hair out of my carpet left behind by other vacuums! The Shark is well worth the money!

Bought our first one about 2 months ago on the advice of our maid. Love it! Had to get this second one for our other property. It is light weight, quiet, and works very easily on carpets. I love the floor vacuum feature where ONLY the suction functions as you sweep over loose dust, particles. The brushes spinning is the cause for kicking the dust and particles all over the place. Clever. Also easy to use on our stairs and under furniture. Wish this model came with some sort of light on the front, but oh well.

This vacuum is lightweight, has very great suction, and works really well

Vacuum is a value for price. Easy to use, noise minimum, cleans rugs better with minimum effort. Have used under beds, in tight areas, Carpet is cleaned better than pricer, heavy vacuum. All use, very easy to remove dust and dirt by removing tube. Really believe that the Shark is a money valued buy. Makes our carpet cleaning must easier.

Great suction, light-weight, versatile, easy to use once you get used to the way it is designed to come apart and be used as both a conventional vacuum and hand-held canister vac.

This is by far the vacuum I have ever used! The suction is outstanding! I couldn't believe everything our old vacuum was missing. It's very light weight and the lift away design allows easy cleaning on stairs. Its not very loud, which is a plus for me. I love the attachment for cleaning underneath appliances, it is AMAZING! I honestly can't say enough good things about this vacuum. It really makes my job so much easier!

I would absolutely recommend this vacuum to anyone with pets!!, it is wonderful and very easy to switch tools and lightweight!! Great for stairs with the detachable canister!! The price is right as well!! I have tried the more expensive one but this one works just as well, if not better!!
