    We didn't know about this vacuum because of the size but it works much better than the larger one we were replacing. My wife LOVES it. The only knock is that it is light which makes it easy to pull over when using the wand.

    It is always fun to say "it sucks" and have mean a good thing! This is a very powerful vacuum, with many good components. I have a dog, 5 daughters with long hair, and my wife with long hair. But this vacuum does the trick!

    My mom had this super 90’s oreck vacuum. It was still working but it was ancient, we got her this for Christmas and she loves it. The hoses and capability to take vacuum on the go makes her clean for no reason

    I have been using my moms vacuum for the past 20 years until a few months ago. Finally I'd decided to get a new one. My choice could not have been better, I enjoy using the Shark Navigator just as much as driving. Excellent product.

    It does the job perfectly. There are two modes (brush, no brush) which makes it easier to use on hardwood and carpet. No bag is required which is another good thing.

    Great vaccuum. We upgraded from a different shark that we had for 5 years. This one picked up so much dirt and the hose suction works well with attachments

    Needed a vaccuum and didn’t want to spend too much. Really good vacuum that picks up a lot. My only downside is that it is so retry hard to vacuum an area rug on carpet or any area rug on any floor. Good for bare floor and carpet.

    Torn between this product and the dyson. Tired of vacuum losing power after about 18 months. Too early to tell if this is long term solution, but out of the box functionality already better than the Hoover product replaced.

    I have always owned shark vacuums. You can never go wrong with a shark. This one is a bit smaller than the ones I normally buy. But it still gets the job done and with ease.

    We are very happy with this purchase. We have a Great Pyrenees that sheds a fair amount, but this has been able to keep the carpet in our bedrooms hair free. I would highly recommend to other pet owners.

    Not what we had hoped for

    In the past we always bought a cheaper vacuum and never had great success with them lasting long. We believed Shark to be a superior vacuum, so we paid a little more than usual. The vacuum lacks the bumper guards we have always had on our cheaper vacuums. When you drop the handle back to sweep, the exhaust air blows in your face. Its hard to use the canister only on steps, mostly because of the solid section that has to stay on the end of the hose. When you empty the canister , the rubber seal is always covered with dust.

    I bought this vacuum to replace an old Hoover Windtunnel and it has exceeded my expectations. The first time I used it the dirt canister was full - I guess my old vacuum wasn't doing a very good job cleaning the floors any more!

    Seems good.. but it really does suck hard on carpet of any height. It does clean well, but is somewhat difficult to use due to how hard it pulls on carpet.

    My wife did research and told me she wanted this vacuum cleaner. I know this would be a bad gift so I couldn’t pass if off for a valentines gift but she loved it. I used it too to detail our cars. Not bad. Better than lugging out the ole shop vac.

    my wife has a vacuum fetish it seems and we typically get thru 3 or 4 every year (yes every year). Tried every variety possible (dyson, hoover etc) and this compares with any of them and is probably the best i have seen.

    I’ve been using this vacuum for about a year now and I feel secure in my purchase for sure! The only thing is that I wish is that it had a easy way to clean the brush of hair.

    This is NOT the highly rated Lift Away model

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is NOT the Lift Away model. It is a cheap version that cannot handle "high" carpets, which is to say it cannot handle anything above cheap apartment carpet. Good mid level carpet will be a workout to get it to work. YOU MUST MANUALLY adjust the suction for carpets. The drive motor, if there is one (I'm assuming there is), is weak. I bought this thinking it was the Lift Away model that I had previously. It is definitely not. If you need a cheap allergen capturing vacuum and do not have high quality carpet, then this is for you. Otherwise find something else.
