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

it is a wonderful vacuum with amazing suction the clean SO much sand out of my carpet and the hepa filter works very well too, but it has a dysfunctional system to do cleaning with the extension arm because of the shape of the extension wand handle being curved you cannot hold it straight since its curved and there is downward tension being pulled away from you by the extremely short and stiff rubber flexy tube. . DO NOT BUY if you need to clean with the extension wand, but i highly recommend it for normal daily vacuuming as an upright machine.

Was looking for something powerful to pick up cat hair and clean my low carpet well. This thing did the trick and I would have given 4 1/2 stars if I could. What I liked: the noise level is low. The suction is incredible but it should be with a 10 amp power requirement. It gives options for bare floor or carpeting and has a "suction control" vent that you can adjust through air vents to release pressure to let you chose the power. What I didn't like is that it is heavy to maneuver especially when you set it to high suction (but what a job it did!). The vacuum itself is listed at 14 lbs so be aware. In general you can move it around corners but on high suction it's the pulling back (not pushing forward) that requires some muscle. Also there's no place to put the Pet Power Brush on the device so I'll have to put it in a drawer somewhere and hope I remember I have it when I need it.
Photos show what it picked up in a small 10x12 room (I thought was clean!) and the location of the suction control. I recommend it to anyone who needs the power but if you don't or can't use a little muscle to move it around, I say look elsewhere.

I am so impressed with this vacuum right off the bat. I had a cordless shark vacuum that I used pretty much daily and thought the rugs were clean… WRONG. One quick use of the shark navigator and so much came out of the rug that I was so disgusted yet highly satisfied. This vacuum is magical. The only downside is that it has to be plugged in and the cord isn’t retractable which is a pain to manually wind up the cord after each use. Otherwise works great picking up dust and extremely small particles and is easy to move around! Would definitely recommend. (Photo is what I got with 5 minutes of using in what I thought was a clean rug)!

I've been using the Shark brand for some years and it's never disappointed but I was a little bummed when I received this particular model only because it came with just the these 2 little attachments (this is why we read THE WHOLE description 🤣). Otherwise, I am more than happy about how much it "sucks"😁✌🏼🤙🏼

This vacuum cleaner has a lot of power and a lot of range, it has two different speeds and three types of ways of vacuuming, it serves for floors, carpets, windows, etc.

This is a good vacuum for the price. It is light and does a good job cleaning. I have owned a Shark Stratos and was very impressed with it, so I decided to try this cheaper model. For the most part, I have not been disappointed. It works well and gets my carpets very clean. It's also not too noisy or large. The liftaway feature is probably my favorite feature. It makes it very easy to clean the stairs.

My biggest complaint about it is the quality of the materials. Compared to the Stratos, this vacuum feels a lot more "plasticky". If feels lighter and more fragile. Within a few months of using it, the cap for the dust filter in the front of mine started periodically falling off while I was vacuuming. It's happened so often that I used some duct tape to keep it in place. I never had any issues like that with my Stratos.

I am a big fan of Shark vacuums, and I will keep using this one. I would gladly buy any Shark vacuum over another brand any day. Buuuuut..... it does seem like a few corners may have been cut in order to keep the price point down on this one. I will probably spend a little more next time to get one of the more expensive models instead.

It picks up great It's not very noisy it was easy to put together on my regular wall to wall carpeting at maneuvers great unfortunately I have a area rug on top of my carpet in the living room and it was extremely hard to push on that I cannot figure out why but it really gave my arm a workout otherwise I would have given it five stars

Super easy to assemble. Tried it out immediately and could hardly push it because the suction was so strong. Once I read the directions, there is a collar near the handle that you need to turn to reduce suction strength. Even with that turned all the way open it did help, but still very strong suction and difficult for an elderly person to push. I feel if you have medium piled thick Carpet you’ll have some difficulty pushing the vacuum with the brush turned on. With the brush off and the collar adjusted to full suction. It works very good on the wooden floors. The results in the canister proves it does it job very well, but I’m not sure I have the strength to push it with the brush on and collar adjusted to less suction.

The vacuum itself is outstanding!
The pet hair power brush worked at first but now the brush doesn’t hardly turn. I used it to vacuum out my dog crate!
The hose handle is very heavy and awkward. The bendable part of the hose is very short when vacuuming ceiling fan blades, panel doors, baseboards etc.
You cannot vacuum heavy area rugs. There is no suction adjustments like on the older model Shark Navigator.
My whole house is wood floors and it vacuums perfectly for that.

I'll start by saying I'm a 76 year old female. I ordered and received the Shark Navigator NV369 the same day. The next morning I had it assembled with ease and ran it through its paces. The suction is strong and, that it can be adjusted is a good feature. Despite adjusting I have one carpet where the suction is still too strong to use this vacuum. I'll continue to use the Levot cordless stick that I've had for a while. It takes some effort to use on some of my other rugs, but it can be done. It does a great job on the luxury vinyl flooring that I have throughout my house. I didn't have a problem separating the wand or the lift-away pod so I can reach high or areas that are harder to get to. I appreciate that both the top and bottom of the bin can be opened for easier cleaning of the bin following vacuuming. My Levot has a light. I miss that this vacuum doesn't. Its had to beat cordless but, in this case, I wasnt ready to pay $299 for a cordless Shark. This one, before tax, ran $159. As I mentioned, I've had the Levot for a while, it was also purchased from Amazon. I recomend both of these vacuums as they each meet slightly different needs. The Hepa filters on both are a healthier option for cleaning one's home.

this is the only vacuum i use. it's my 3rd one(not because they kept breaking...others, got lost in a move,&gave to my son when he moved) i have cats&used to have a long hair dog. so have always needed a GOOD SUCTION VACUUM! after researching&finding this one yrs ago...i don't look for any others! i have multiple dfrnt types of rugs(low pile, shag, high pile, etc) throughout my house, with tile&hardwood floors. so i needed something that works for... EVERYTHING. this does that. my only tip is, make sure you keep the sponge filter clean(vacuum suck it after every use, & wash with liquid dish soap&allow to fully dry, once a month) &continuously check the brush head of hair&stuff wrapped around it. the cleaner that stays, the better it brushes! (&keeps the bristles from wearing down/strong) So a clean filter keeps the suction at 100%,&a clean brush, well... self explanatory. my ONLY reason for taking a star off,is....i did an initial review&it was declined. i was not rude. &evn explained that i understood the possible mistake&would update the review after.. correction. so concerns me now about... reviews accepted/ declined. i was shipped a used vacuum. dirt was still in it&cord tangled up. just all...thrown in the box. i assumed it was a return or something that just got.. misplaced with my order. &after asking for a reorder/replacement, a few days later i received a new one in the original box. i only did the review honestly so they could see the pictures&know i was being completely truthful. but i don't like knowing that my review was rejected. it makes me question the process of reviews now. &that makes online shopping, just that much harder. so we'll see what happens with this review. eitherway, highly recommend this vacuum.

Well, the brush on bottom collects so much of my dogs and cats hair that I have to cut away from brush. It's a great vacuum except for that. So if you don't want that build up opt for a different vacuum.

In comparison to the two Clean view Bisslles I had. They each only had a life span of 1 year. This shark has a lot of powerful suction it’s super impressive. It works really well. It’s very easy to assemble everything clicks into place. You can easily switch from bare floor to carpet at the click of a button. I also like that the canister and hose can lift off together which makes for easy vacuuming of the stairs, bed , curtains, furniture. It came with a crevice tool and an upholstery tool. The only reasons I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is because the base of it is not as wide as the Bisslle which means it covers less floor so it takes longer to vacuum, the canister is smaller than what it looks like in The picture, so it fills up fast especially if you haven’t t vacuumed in 2 weeks or more with a cat or dog. The cord doesn’t seem as long as the Bisslle and there’s no little brushes on the side to get things out the corner. Besides all that this works well so far.

I love this vacuum but I bought it about a year ago and the hose is broken in multiple places and hardly works now. So if you do get it, get a warranty!!

Just received. Works as it should. Has a great suction, seems powerful. Easy to set up. I took off a star for quality. The plastic is much cheaper than older models. It is supper light weight, which is either a pro or con depending on your needs. My only concern, due to the poor quality plastic is how durable this vacuum will be over time with daily use.

Very easy to assemble. On the top of the lid it gives you a quick start guide of how to put it together. I love that it has suction control, I can switch it from bare floor to brushroll, and the swivel steering. Some people find it hard to push but if you adjust the suction you can push it with ease. When using the hose, it does not reach very far and will easily tip the vacuum due to it being so light weight. But because it is so light weight it's easy to pick up to be able to extend your hose if you don't want to detach the pod. I have 6 kids and two pugs that she's like crazy and it does amazing picking everything up so I would rate the cleaning power a 4 out of 5. I wish it led lights but I knew it didn't have this feature before purchasing. Also, the width of the vacuum is much smaller compared to ny Hart and Dyson vacuum I previously owned.

I spent way too much time scouring the Internet, trying to decide which vacuum to get after reading so many reviews. We decided to go with this one for a few reasons.
PROS
- It was a better price than a lot of the other ones on the market. We couldn’t justify spending almost $300 on the vacuum that we weren’t sure would work super well. This one is definitely the sweet spot.
- It does have a cord, which we prefer because we tend to vacuum a lot and use it for dusting and cleaning off the furniture.
- it has pretty good suction.
- it’s really easy to clean the debris tank.
- It’s really easy to remove the wands during use.

CONS
- It doesn’t feel like a super sturdy vacuum, and I don’t know if that’s because I’m used to using really old or industrial vacuums, but it hasn’t broken or anything so It could just be my opinion.
- It does not vacuum my rugs. In the vacuums defense, though, our previous vacuum really had problems with these rugs too. These rugs are extremely thin and have like a suede or microfiber feel to them. We tried using both the carpet and hardwood settings to Vacuum it, but it won’t move on the bear floor, setting, and the brush roll would get stuck and smell like it was burning if we tried using the carpet setting.

Overall its a good vacuum, but I am a little bit bummed that it doesn’t work on the rugs that I have all over my house. I’m thinking I’ll probably just keep the vacuum and replace the rugs. Lol.

This is our second Shark upright. We had the first one for 8 years. Like the old one, this vacuum works great at picking up our German Shepherd’s hair. He sheds 24x7x365. Two things though- the cord is much shorter than the old one. And this vacuum didn’t come with a pet power brush. I knew that when I ordered it. So we just kept the one from the old Shark vacuum, and it fits perfectly. I tried the wide upholstery tool that came with the new vacuum, and it was no match for the carpeted staircase. It didn’t pick up any dog hair. It was easy to assemble. It only took a couple of minutes. In fact, it took more time to break down the boxes for recycling.
Six days after buying this vacuum, Amazon dropped the price by an additional $20. When I bought it, the vacuum was already reduced by $20. Unfortunately, Amazon doesn’t do price adjustments. ☹️

I’m so glad we bought this vacuum. I read all the negative reviews about how impossible it is to push this vacuum bc the suction is so strong. It is! Apparently those users didn’t know about the other settings on the vacuum that make it one of the most efficiently functional machines I own. It has a bare floor setting separate from the roller on setting for carpet and if you have high pile carpet, it has a suction release. Those two combined make the vacuum simple to push. It’s pretty lightweight & I’m coming from using the cordless Dyson V7. Other negative reviews complain about emptying the dirt bin, it does require two hands but honestly seems to clean so well, I’m happy to dump it! You can even detach the roller brush piece and attach it to the hose & pipe for reaching under the bed or just detach the handle to quickly get stairs or behind tight close spaces (toilet, furniture). It seems very durable with quality materials. Although I keep knocking off the two little attachments. I think we paid around $150 on a bit of a sale and it’s WELL WORTH IT! I sped up/slowed my video at times so it’s not too long but the sound effects just prove how great it’s working.

Does this have too much suction? The picture shows what this thing pulled out of my carpet after I vacuumed it with my old Hoover Powerdrive and after the carpet had just been cleaned with my Rug Doctor. Amazing suction.

Cons: I think it takes too much effort to push back and forth, I am older so I wonder how much longer I will be able to vacuum my own place. It is quite the work out. It does have a suction valve to adjust the power of the suction so I will tame it down for my next use.

The cord is too short! Why couldn't they add at least five, if not eight more feet to the cord.

I can't speak to how the tools work as I just received it.

I’ve had the blue Navigator for several years and loved it but wanted a second for my upstairs. When I put “Shark Navigator” into the search area it of course came up. Just to be different, I ordered the white one. BUT… Be aware it’s much heavier, and its suction is so strong I cannot run over my Ruggables which I’ve always been able to do in the past. It also has “Professional” on the front which explains I guess how much stronger it is. It sucks very well, that’s not my issue, but I wanted the exact same thing as my current one and this is NOT the same. Maybe I should have read a little closer, so that’s on me. I’m just writing this review so no one else is mistaken they are the same. Being older I really needed the lighter machine. I’m not going to be able to utilize this new one as I had hoped.

So my home is 2k sqft and this pic is from my first use. I got tired of buying $60 vacuums only to replace them in a year. So, I splurged a little and dished out the dough for this bad boy hoping it will work better & last longer. I placed my order at 9 this morning and received it by 6 this evening. I've only had it for an hour and half and when I say this was easy to assemble, I mean no tools and few clicks easy. I have a husky who sheds like crazy and so I usually vacuum everyday to keep up but my old vacuum wasn't working well on carpets. This is a little hard to pull backward in carpet but opening the airway helps a lot and man is this vacuum powerful! I love how easy it adjusts from one floor type to the other too. No to mention it's not heavy at all. Very pleased. If it were easier to pull back on carpet and the attachments didn't fall off due to the extreme suction, I'd give it a 5 star. Those are honestly the only 2 issues and they are minor. Wish they made the attachments click like the other pieces then they would remain in place & that heavy duty suction would still be just amazing with attachments.

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

My previous vacuum bit the dust recently so I purchased this model based on good consumer ratings from a variety of sources.

There are many plusses for this vacuum. It has exceptional suction. It isn't that heavy and maneuvers relatively easily. The dust collection bin is rather large and can be emptied easily. The filtering system is good with 3 total filters, including the HEPA exhaust filter. The cord length is very generous at 24 feet.

In spite of the plusses I find quite a few minuses. I do not like that the cord enters the machine down near the bottom. The cord is always in the way unless I constantly hold it with my other hand. I do not like the positioning of the on/off switch. It should be conveniently located on the handle but it is not. It's on the side of the pod which requires you to bend down to turn it on or off. I do not like that I cannot vacuum under furniture or beds because the pod is so large that it prevents the vacuum from going under furniture. And I know that might sound ridiculous but the suction is so strong that I cannot even vacuum my 8x10' area rugs because the vacuum sucks the rug up making it very difficult to move the vacuum and it makes the motor seemingly struggle. This absolutely cannot be sued on small area rugs. There is only one speed for the motor although you can choose to operate the vacuum without the brush spinning.

So for me this is a return. If you have nailed down rugs or lots of concrete floors, this might be a good choice. The price is very reasonable. But for my house this does't cut it for the reasons I've cited.

Please read:
The pictures above, is me vacuuming AFTER MY DYSON ROLLERBALL. The amount of hair and dirt it picked up was crazy embarrassing.

I vacuum daily. I have LVP and high pile carpet plus throw rugs. I’ve got 3 dogs, an Aussie who sheds daily, and kids. I have an iRobot (a joke barely picks up) 2 dysons (rollerball and cordless) that I felt that were not working as good as they should. I have spent so much time and money on vacuums as I can’t stand dog hair. Let me just say, I did a lot of research and decided on this vacuum based on Forbes best vacuum for pet hair list of 2024. Convinced shark is made for pet hair and DAILY use.

Easy to put together(did it myself)
Lightweight
STRONG suctions
Can go from flooring to carpet with ease
Tools easy to use
Easy to empty and clean
The cord is long so can be used is larger rooms
Be prepared to be disgusted BY HOW MUCH IT SUCKS UP.

REASON FOR 4 STARS: The only issue I’m having is that it gets stuck on my area rug in my family room. That rug is a ruggable that is washable so is fairly thin. I have taken to using the hand tool for that part, but even that works so good.

So glad I got this!

So I immediately registered my shark on the shark website as the box suggests and I am glad I did! The suction on this vacuum is so intense that I was nervous it was defective because I could barely move it on my most prized area rug. I’m a strong lady. I work with power tools around my home, I do hair and blow dry peoples hair every day, I’m constantly having my arms out in front of me, and I have two German shepherd mixes that are 70 and 85 pounds who are very leash reactive. It shouldn’t be that difficult to push on the proper setting. Queue customer support call.
When I called shark customer service, I was able to speak directly to a person! They sent me a link for a video call so they could see what was going on and kindly troubleshot the issue with me. There is a suction release valve up by the handle!! She had me turn it all the way to the lowest suction setting and I was able to use it on my thickest rug and honestly it worked even better to suck up the dog hair! And it worked beautifully on my thinner area rugs. That being said, it would not work well on any rugs even thicker than my NuLoom beauty.
My first vacuum I purchased was a Shark. It lasted 8 years with 1-2 German Shepherd mixes! I loved it. For some reason, I went with a bissel pet upright rewind last year and it broke three times not due to user error and once completely due to user error. I just got it back from the repair shop and it lasted one and a half uses before it stopped working for the third time of its own accord, so I am VERY hopeful and excited for this Shark.

Initial thoughts- OK I had to get over the garbage from unpacking the machine.

A little background... I live with four cats and a small breed that doesn't shed. I had previously been using the Dyson V11 stick and before saying anything more, it might not be fair comparing a stick vacuum to a corded vacuum.

My friend, giving me moral support, starts reading me the instructions. Assembly was pretty quick and painless. This clicks here that clicks there. Then she starts reading the owners manual. And it all went downhill from there! LMAO 🤣 I don't know if all vacuum instruction manuals read the same. Not these struck us as gut wrenching funny. Maybe in a listener's frame of mind not knowing what to expect- "Suction Control offers variable suction based on your needs. " SMH! What? Truth be told- it has a bigger canister than the Dyson. It picked up three times the pet hair (as I tried to demonstrate in the ONE pass of a pet hair covered rug).

I have a combination of rugs and hardwood floors. It blew my mind how much dirt it picked up. My house smelled cleaner! This is my initial reactions, mind you. Made me feel so much better looking at clean floors/rugs.

It comes with filters. I don't know if I'm such a fan. But the big squishy one is cleanable and reusable. So some solice in that fact that I didn't know.

The handy dandy pet attachment doesn't swivel. Which meant for me? Having to bend over or be several stairs below to have the attachment nossel hit the stairs.

Emptying the machine is a dirty job. Like dirtier than emptying the Dyson. Which begs my question of why such extensive measures with the filters?

I had a total blast with my friend, going around the house and testing is suction power! It was worth it just for the memories!

***** 5 stars for good times.

**** 4 stars just because it is my first experience with this machine. If I can figure out how- I'll totally update!

I don't normally write up reviews on things I buy on Amazon, unless I feel strongly about them and there is really good information to share. This item deserves the review. I purchased and consider the Shark Navigator NV356E S2 Lift-Away Pro (what's the point of all the numbers) the best bang for your buck. I would say this an expensive vacuum, but as vacuum price ranges can vary depending on what you buy, I suppose this is an affordable model.
First, I will address the benefits. Right off the bat, this model is outstanding when it comes to filtering out the dust that almost all vacuums spit back out when in use. All vacuums have filters, but this goes above and beyond. If you have health issues regarding your lungs or breathing, look no further. This vacuum is completely self contained inside and does not spit any of the dust or dirt back out (see attached photos) as almost all vacuums do. Keep in mind this vacuum was completely dust free and white when I bought it (as it should be) and by the time I was finished, you would have thought I just cleaned up after a construction build. It makes me sick to think I had that much dust on my carpets, which brings me to my next point. The suction power is outstanding as well. It will take whatever you are willing to throw its way, on wood floors as well as carpet. It comes with three attachments (wand, duster and small roller vacuum for stairs). The canister detaches and is pretty lightweight. It picked up so much dust, dirt, pet hair, etc (I have two short hair, Jack Russell Terriers that are big shedders) that I had to empty the canister several (at least 6 times) while vacuuming my entire house. I recommend checking the canister to make sure it does not get too full (user error issues), or it becomes ineffective after that. Something else to note, empty the vacuum from the bottom. It opens on the top and the bottom. The bottom is an easier way to drop all the dust and collected contents.
Here are a couple of items that I wouldn't necessarily call disappointments or cons, just something to watch for and be aware of. When reading the other reviews, I noticed a few people mention that the motor burned up quickly after purchase. Here's the thing, I could have easily done the same thing, the very first day I used it. I just happened to check the roller brush after vacuuming several rooms in my house and it was so packed with hair and string that the brush motor could have easily burned out, so I would recommend checking the roller brush often because that is something I would say is user error. The suction is so strong that it will pick up hair quickly. I just used a pair of small scissors to cut the wound up hair off, then pulled it all out. I don't think you need to take the bottom off to do that, but it depends on how wound up the hair gets on the roller. Now about that roller. It is not very wide or long at all. I wear a size 8 women's shoe and it is no longer than my shoe. The roller does not extend to the very edges of the vacuum either, so that is something to keep in mind. The roller head is short, so you will need to vacuum more to clean more area, but that also allows the vacuum to fit in between small spaces. I would recommend buying extra filters because, as you can see in my third photo, it traps a lot of dust. That thing was pristine white when I started (testament to the suction power and filtering system of this vacuum). I do believe you can wash these things out, but I wouldn't recommend doing that. Just keep a couple of extras handy. I believe the extra filters are about $6.oo-$8.00 dollars.
The one thing I would say that is going to be a problem, how to clean the vacuum canister. Get yourself a good wand duster to clean it out at the end of your vacuuming. I suppose it's not absolutely necessary to clean out all the dust afterward, but that's just something I do. I don't want all that dust, etc...sitting in the canister upon next use. One other thing that I think was odd...the vacuum is white. It is going to get dirty fast, but hey! It's a vacuum.
Hope this is helpful.
