Customer Ratings & Reviews

This vacuum cleaner is very powerful. Great turning and I like the attachments and hose.

Simple to use, performs well, quick and easy to break down and reassemble, and looks good.This is the first vacuum I've bought and I'm happy with it.

This is the one the wife wanted. Not sure how long it will last,but it picks up really well. Much quieter than our old one. Attachments for every need.Looks hi-tech, too.

Expensive but works well. Love the Lift-a way feature. Very versatile.

I had a bissel pet and it was maybe 6months to a year old. The motor on the Brushes burned out. I decided on this shark because it has been compared to a Dyson. Let me tell you how awesome this vacuum is! I'm in love! I never thought I would be so happy about a vaccum cleaner! It picks up some much cat hair. The first time we used it was 2 days after I used my old one and it looked like we hadn't vacuumed in months. If self repels so it's easy to push and the head lights are a nice touch. The way it comes apart is so nice too!

The product is so much better than any vacuum we have ever owned. Super light, no loss of suction and everything it was advertised to be. As good as a Dyson and cheaper.

My old Eureka Boss still works after 14 years, but it's very heavy. This Shark NV501 is very light and easy to carry as a canister. My house is all hardwood and tile floor, so this vacuum cleaner is perfect for it. It is so easy to clean bare floor now. However, because it is so light, I find that it does not do a good job on the mats (e.g. welcome mats with low pile). My old heavy vacuum cleaner cleaned these rugs better (I can see that there is more dog hair left in the rug when I use this Shark, compared to the old Eureka Boss). I think a heavy vacuum cleaner, like my old one, can dig deep into the rug and carpet to get to the dirt. I only have a few rugs in my house, so I'm ok with that. I am happy with this vacuum cleaner. I can finally spend less $$$ on Swiffer :D

I absolutely love this vaccum. Lightweight, and powerful!! Would recommend to anyone, especially if you have kids and dogs!!

Very powerful and easy to maneuver. I've had previous Shark vacs and they work great; including this one. Only wish they came in a different color.

Really versatile vacuum, has a ton of different attachments and ways to get into tight places. Also decently sized for carrying around.

Great suction and very accommodating to nearly any application. It is a little on the heavy side when used as an upright, but hasn't given me any trouble.

Picks up great. Is very convenient with the attachments and the ability to vacuum stairs by removing the attachment part.

light, easy to separate, will wipe clean often since it is white and will show dirt

I really do love this vacuum! I had a dyson for a good 12 years and thought it was the best vacuum. I needed a good lite vacuum and one that would work really well. This vacuum really does work great and there is no dust in the air while I am using it. I had vacuumed the day before we got the shark and thought the floor was clean, my husband took me to get a new vacuum. I just wanted to see how it work and was shocked at what came out of the rug with this shark!!!! Worth every penny.

This vacuum was very easy to assemble and was able to use very quickly. Love the attachments and how easy it is to go from one function to another.

I love my new shark vacumn!!! It is lightweight with great suction. I couldn't believe how much dust and dirt it picked up from my carpet.

I don't need a carpet vacuum I use it with the hose only. I love the attachments especially for upholstery and hardwood floors. Easy to empty the bin.

Still have this vacuum and it is still going strong. Extremely versatile and am able to use it on multiple surfaces without loss of performance.

I was a FIRM believer in Dyson and to be honest was strongly opposed to buying this vacuum and instead wanted to get the Dyson equivalent. Thankfully my b/f and the salesman on the floor talked me into trying the Shark and WOW is all I can say!!!! My b/f and I now fight over who is going to vaccum and my home has never been more clean! We have three inside animals and this vaccum doesn't skip a beat! I love it and I am now proud to say I'm a firm believer in the Shark!!!

I just bought this vacuum for my two story house and it works extremely well. Very powerful suction, picks up everything. The assisted pull capabilities really helps when you have a big house and are getting tired of pushing a vacuum. The manuverability of the vacuum comes in handy around corners and edges. This is the perfect vacuum for a huge house with lots of carpet space, especially for the price.
