Shark Navigator Lift-Away Professional NV356E (Renewed)

This refurbished Shark vacuum cleaner looks brand new! I bought this same vacuum cleaner 10 years ago and have loved it!!! Unfortunately, a cleaning crew damaged it. I went to buy a new one and saw that the price had gone up to $249 now. Then I saw this refurbished one for $169. I’m so glad I took a chance on it. I’ve had it 2 weeks and it is running great and looks brand new! Runs just as good as my previous one! I’m so happy with this purchase!

The lift away tank is a good thing for cleaning draperies and furniture. It’s also good for cleaning the stairs.The actual vacuum is easy to maneuver and can be used on hard floors or on the carpet.

Maybe someday I'll be able to afford a $400+ top-of-the line vacuum, but today is not that day. In the meantime, this is super effective for its price point. It's also really solidly constructed and has some very convenient features (mostly involving removing the suction hose and canister from the base for hard-to-reach spots) that I haven't seen in similarly or lower priced vacuums. No regrets on this purchase.

This vacuum is perfect for our family! We use it on a variety of surfaces and it is super easy to transition between them. It is also very easy to get to switch to the attachments and clean off and under furniture. Suction power is great and the swivel head is very versatile.

I loved absolutely everything about this vacuum. I loved the attachments, the suction, the flexibility of detaching and using different parts. It was my new and best toy. I slept with it next to my bed so that it would, at a moment’s notice be ready to jump in to save the day from any messes. My husband told me I loved it too much and would just roll his eyes when I would examine the floors after children or doggies walked by to see if there was a spot that needed a quick maintenance pass through. It was ever at the ready, suction strong and pivot head flexible. It was my best helpmate, until it wasn’t. Four weeks later THE VACUUM DIED. There was no symptoms or warnings that this was its impending future. One random and small clean up job, four weeks after purchase, it let off a loud squeal. Concerned for my new clean up ally I went to quickly turn it off only to see the off switch blink, as if suffering from a short circuit, at my almost touch. A strange burning smell filled the air and then the best vacuum that ever was was no more. We are all a bit saddened at its’ passing.All that to say, the vacuum was great while it worked. But it costs too much money to only work for a month. Don’t buy this vacuum, you’ll have to go on the rest of your life knowing that you’ve lived through the easiest clean up month of your life already and everything will be more difficult from then on.

I suffer with an insanely iniquitous case of OCD. Things can never been too clean or perfect. I even tormented myself because I have white carpet and/or rugs throughout my home. I know, I hate my mental well-being. I am extremely happy with this purchase. At first I was a bit nervous ordering a refurbished vacuum since there’s so much that can go wrong, albeit, $70 off was worth the risk. It arrived sooner than expected, the vacuum looks and operates just as a new vacuum would, and most importantly, I do not think the previous owners had an indoor pet. I do not have any pets nor do I let them inside my home because they smell and they add to the daily mess going in and out. I would highly suggest this vacuum, especially at the price point!

Works as a vacuum should. Unfortunately, the plastic around the wheels has disintegrated. I carpets in both bedrooms and started finding pieces of plastic as I pushed it over the carpet. Terrible purchase.
