make sure it fits your needs
Excellent on bare floors. I'm not recommending it for carpets. This is the smartest bagless design I've seen; I didn't think I'd find a bagless I liked. Moreover, bagless is overrated because bags aren't much of an inconvenience at all. I researched on line and visited all the stores. Bed Bath & Beyond had this vac for the same price as Amazon- plus I could plug it in there and try it out for real.
Picks: Good dirt-collecting design for a bagless. Light weight. Good suction. Clever wand design detaches from the body for reaching awkward areas.
Pans: Cord is a little short. A little weak at the edge where the wall meets the floor.
This thing picks up cheerios and pet hair, paper clips, staples and anything else I don't want my baby to eat off the floor. It is used daily. The carpet brush is capable of picking up tracked-in debris on the large entry rugs and low pile area rugs. IMO it is too light to be effective on thick pile carpets- even on low pile it...
Very powerful!
I just got this vacuum (from BB&B store because they have a 20%-off coupon = $130 total & I could carry it home instead of waiting for shipping to arrive) & I absolutely love it on my carpets!
It has surprisingly powerful suction for such a compact unit & I even bypassed the Navigator Lift Away (which I planned to get) in favor of this one because I liked how it performed even better than the Lift Away despite its smaller size. It lifts up the nap on my trampled carpets & makes them look new again. This vacuum pulls out so much dirt, dust, hair & fibers from my carpets that my old canister vacuum left behind. The beater brush (which has a button to turn off for use on bare floors) is fantastic.
The dirt cup is large enough capacity for my apt (2 bdrm, no stairs), it empties out easily, & the filter needs only occasional rinsing (every 3 mos of regular use) to maintain its wonderful strong suction. The hose is convertible & comes w/2 attachments which store on the...
A lot Packed In a Compact Size
First of all although I am the first reviewing the Shark, Navigator Light (Model NV100) it is the same vacuum as the Shark Euro-Pro (Model NV100) and there are six other reviews there. I went looking for a corded vacuum to use on the middle level of our home that this level is almost exclusively hard wood floors with a few turkish rugs. This vacuum was easy to put together in less than five minutes and really was great to use. I have a Kirby in my downstairs and a Dyson Ball in my upstairs and this little vacuum worked great. I would not put the suction at the level of the Kirby or the Dyson Ball but it was a much stronger level of suction than I expected. The 12amp motor is what I found in many vacuums that were much larger and heavier than this model (also same motor as on Sharks larger vacuums and premium models). We wanted one to throw in our coat closet and it easily made the light work of 2000sq feet of this floor of my home. I used it on carpets at three entry ways into...
