worth the money
I love this vacuum! It was easy to put together, and is very well made. Sure it's a bit costly for a cordless vacuum, but definitely worth the money. I've had the much cheaper version of Shark cordless vacuums and within a year, they fall apart. Not the Navigator. This vacuum is built to last. I have a long haired dog and the vacuum easily picks up all the pet hair. The best part is it steers like a Dyson. The 'docking station' is amazing. Much easier than having to plug a cord into the vacuum itself,and unplugging it when it comes time to use the machine. There are only two things I don't care for about this vacuum, and their really not even that big of a deal. The on / off button is located on top of the unit, and because of this location when I try to vacuum under my couch, the couch hits the on / off button, and shuts the vacuum off. No big deal, I just have to remember not to push the vacuum that far under the couch. Secondly (and this is just weird), the recharging...
Changed my life
I know that sounds dramatic, but it's true. I've owned it for almost two months. I have three shedding dogs, a husband, and a 5 year old. I vacuum my house and within an hour it literally looks like I didn't vacuum. I love my dogs but the amount of hair is incredible. I have an old Dyson that weighs a ton and when I want to vacuum I have to go and pull it out of the closet, unravel the cord, plug it in and drag it around the house. It is large and clumsy and every time I want to switch from floor to carpet it's an enormous hassle. All of this was deterring me from vacuuming and the hair and dirt would build up until I HAD to pull out the old beast and take care of it, which was by no means easy or quick.
Enter the shark. It charges on a neat little piece that sits on the floor and you just pop the vacuum right in. You don't even have to bend down. Our main living space is about 2500 sq ft and I can do at least 75% of it, if not more, before the battery runs out -...
So very easy to use
I ditto all the positive comments from other users. I like to use this product at home and especially at our church, where we have a lot of chairs to vacuum around. Without having the annoyance of a cord, vacuuming can be done much more quickly. And it gets the job done well, with an easy canister clean-up and a small space commitment for storage.
My only wish is that Shark would make the button more durable. After applying what I felt was a reasonable amount of pressure (there's a footprint symbol next to the button), it jammed. I could not get the button to budge and I had to return my unit for exchange. So now, with my replacement, I am taking extra care to very gently press the button, even if I have to stoop down and use my finger.
So be warned: be very very gentle with the button - hopefully Shark will fix this issue in future models. Otherwise, everything else is great.
