Shark NV360 Navigator Lift-Away Deluxe Upright Vacuum with Large Dust Cup Capacity, HEPA Filter, Swivel Steering, Upholstery Tool & Crevice Tool, Blue

My Dyson sucks the silt out of the carpet and so does this one. Easy assembly, light weight - easy on the shoulder Needs a longer cord. Love it!!!

Works very well. Easy to assemble, powerful suction, very happy with the purchase

In spite of what other reviewers have said, in spite of the promotionals have said, this unit is NOT suitable for seniors unless they are fit with good muscle strength and strong backs. Im an 80 yr old woman, in fairly good condition and still struggle with this thing. Even just using the cannister part after removal from the base, is a load to carry. I cannot recommend this for most other seniors. HOWEVER, otherwise this is a really nice vaccuum cleaner. Pros: does not overheat like previous Shark vacuums good suction huge dust cup that is easy to empty and clean easy to assemble, take parts apart and back together again easy to maneuver the base part cute idea for the storage of small tools for different functions washable, easily replaceable filters Cons: HEAVY (cant be overstated) I cant imagine hauling the dustcup and hose up stairs one step at a time trying to vacuum each step. Considering that the liftaway apparatus with hose and attachments plus cord dragging behind weighs something close to 10 pounds that means that lifting it up 15 stairs equals lifting 150 pounds in all tools are really small the idea of dusting with it is a joke, the hose is too short, the pipe to the tool is too long making maneuvering the head difficult at any angle especially when holding the heavy dustcup apparatus in the other hand. Wish list for this and all other vacuum cleaners A floor dusting tool that is 8to12 inches wide with soft bristles. Using the head to dust the floors is generally not a great idea. I use a very old head from an vacuum of long ago, taped onto the pipe part when I need to get into corners and under furniture near the legs. A machine that is light yet not flimsy, or carelessly made, wont break after a year or two of use. Promotional ads that dont call a heavy machine light, that state the weight of each part as well as the whole, that states the size of the dustcup in cups or quarts. If a machine is stated as being good for seniors, show an average senior woman of at least 70, cleaning a room, using each part, in real time. What? Too much to ask?

This is the best vacuum I have ever bought. I only wish I had bought it sooner

I was amazed and embarrassed how much dirt this vacuum picked up from my ‘clean’ carpet the first time I used it! So easy to maneuver (my first swivel vacuum), great vacuum and easy to empty canister. So worth the money - lived the prompt shipping and went together super fast!

This vacuum is amazing!!!! I have a tall rug that was impossible to vacuum with my old vacuum. But this one has made it so much easier, and even more so on regular carpet!!!! Must have

I have spent hundreds of dollars on vacuums in the past and have not had one work as good as this one for cleaning up our dog hair. We have 4 dogs who shed ALOT! We have an English Bulldog, a Pug, a Lab and a mutt. It picks up the tiny short hairs of the bulldog and the long course hairs of the lab and mutt off of our hard wood floors and carpet areas.

I bought a shark vacuum a few years ago and was completely amazed at what it picked up! Im a regular vacumm-er and thought my carpet was clean, but, after seeing what this picked up, I was a believer! I bought his one for my mother. She was using a dyson for years. I brought my Shark over to her house and picked up SEVERAL CANNISTERS of crud! She had to have one after that. Its light and easy to use, it pivots well in tight spaces and can get around awkward areas easily because it twists so well. I love it and will never use another vacuum brand other than Shark again!

I like my shark vacuum so far. Only used it twice so far but has much better suction than my Hoover did.

I purchased this vacuum to replace an older, bulkier vacuum that had lost suction. So far this little vacuum has been amazing. When it arrived and I took it out of the box, I was a little apprehensive when I saw how narrow the vacuum was. My first thought was that I was going to have to do so much more work to get my floors clean. The vacuum arrived in several large pieces, so I used the manual to get it all put together. It only took a couple minutes, and was not difficult. After I got it all put together, I read through all the features and how to use them. You can detach the canister from the roller base, in order to clean stairs, or other awkward places. It is definitely helpful on stairs. The one thing I do want to note though, is that my stairs are carpeted, and the detached canister did not sit well on the carpeted stairs, and I had to use my knee to make sure it didnt tip over and tumble down the stairs. There is an upholstery attachment with a roller that spins when attached to wand and vacuum is on. This is good for the stairs as well. There is also a very long, extendible thin wand that is mean to help clean under couches and large furniture. There is also a crevice tool. This vacuum is significantly lighter than my previous vacuum, and pivots and turns incredibly easily. This vacuum also has very powerful suction, and almost makes it seem like it is self propelled. You can also adjust the suction if you are vacuuming a thick carpet, or an area rug, and are trying to keep the vacuum from grabbing onto your carpet. The first time I used this vacuum, it had only been a couple days since i had vacuumed with my old vacuum, but I filled an entire canister just vacuuming my living room and dining room area rugs, and my stairs. The canister is a little smaller than my old vacuum, but if it does a significantly better job, I can handle emptying it a little more frequently. I am very happy with my purchase so far. If you found my review helpful, I would love it if you would click yes.
