Shark Navigator NV501 Elite Professional Lift-away Rotator Vacuum Cleaner

The Shark Navigator NV501 Elite Bagless Upright is a great product in short. We had just moved into a house our old upright gave the you know. So we went a couple weeks without while I researched the available products on the market. I almost got sold on a dyson at costco on our weekly weekend run. So glad I didn't got a better vaccum for $100 less.

It's great because it goes far under furniture and the attachment is good for our kitchen floors and hardwoods. It doesn't leave a weird vacuum smell in the air, either. If you have hardwoods and rugs/carpet, this is a great choice. Very powerful. I don't really understand the extra base they give you, as it's just as easy to pull the vac around with the original base.

Shark Navigator NV501 Elite is very quiet as compared to my other vacuum. Cleaning up errant cat litter on hard surfaces or carpet and in between every little nook and cranny this vacuum took it all up and left nothing behind. Now it's not a miracle machine. Next I used the flexible brush wand to "dust" a bit.

Window sills, curtains and ceiling corners were all left behind clean. I was impressed. But how well will it perform on my furniture. I eased into using the pet tool by vacuuming my recliner. It's a smoother cloth and the pet tool did remarkably well. No hair left behind. Both collect a ton of pet hair. I put the pet tool to work and got the seat cushions and the arms of the couch.

On the softer back cushions it took several passes, but I expected that seeing as how the cushions are soft like pillows. I pulled off my shoes and socks to see if I had missed anything and to see how well my new vacuum had performed. I walked everywhere I vacuumed and didn't step on one loose piece of litter. Wow!!

Ok, now I'm impressed. I figured the carpeted areas would be ok, but hard floors can be difficult. For the Shark Navigator NV501 Elite Professional Lift-away Rotator Vacuum Cleaner price you really can't go wrong. it's also refreshing to deal with a company that appears to be doing it right with quality, performance, and service. thanks for your efforts.
