Review: This sucker is awesome - I am where vacuums go to die.
With 4 dogs and 5 cats, living on a mountain farm, I kill vacuums
on a regular basis. I've managed to take out everything from an
old Kirby to a new Dyson & everything in between. Even the ones
designed for pet hair didn't last long. Then I got a shark
navigator. It was true love! It was like having a Catholic priest
come in on a regular basis to perform an exorcism on my carpets.
For years, me & my Shark performed miracles in my home,
proclaiming from my mountain top... THIS HOUSE IS CLEAN! Then we
moved. I allowed a stranger to take my beloved Shark and haul it
2600 miles. By the time it arrived, it was too late. I founded it
shoved behind a pile of boxes, hidden by the movers until after
they left. It was literally in pieces, it's hoses and cords
shredded and pulled from thier sockets. The handle snapped off at
the neck, there was no chance of resurrection. I couldn't imagine
what kind of torture my poor loyal side kick had endured, and was
in doubt I would ever know such admiration for a household
appliance again. I started the quest for a new vacuum, of course
I knew it would be impossible to find such perfection again. Each
year the new models get cheaper in parts while more expensive in
price. After days of exhaustive searching... thinking perhaps I
could find a remanufactured version of my old pal, I gave up. It
was time to admit I had to buy something different. Still, my
Navigator had been so wonderful, and I hadn't found anything on
the market that seemed better so I ordered a newer model, and set
my heart to disappointment. Certainly I would never find another
who could make my heart pitter pat like that again! My new Shark
arrived and I pulled it from the box. It was pretty, shiny, and a
lovely color. I assembled the parts easily, hearing the click as
each locked in place. It had a good weight to it, though I felt a
bit like betraying a loved one as I tucked it into the closet...
not yet ready to actually turn it on for a test run. The puppy
took advantage of my distraction, as cable & internet providers
came and went. The pup shredded anything he found tempting that
had already been unpacked, including packing material. Little
Styrofoam pieces and bits of a silk flower arrangement littered a
bedroom floor. A calendar lying on top of a box would no longer
adorn our wall. And fluffy bits of golden retriever dotted the
carpet where he had rolled and played during his destructive
frolic. I cleaned up what i could by hand and then instinctively
reached in the closet for my Shark. It was not my dear, loyal
soldier that heeded my call for assistance. No, there was a new
soldier at the ready and it was time to see if it could handle
the job. I plugged it in, and turned it on. The Shark came to
life, illuminated with the power surging through it. With a light
touch, the new machine moved as though floating over the floor,
and followed my directions as though reading my mind. The
shredded debris was instantly gone, nothing missed, no second
pass needed. It was so efficient we were done before I knew it. I
popped out the tank, emptied it and slipped it back in with ease.
I rewrapped the cord and rolled the vacuum back to the closet. As
I tucked it in to its spot I gave it a quick pat and whispered,
"That'll do Shark. That'll do." It had done its duty well, with
no hesitation or complaints. My old friend was laid to rest, and
a new one had come to fill the hole in my heart & my closet. My
dogs & cats fur would not be allowed to over run my home. I had a
new champion that promised to fight the good fight. All that
remains to be seen is how long it will last. A s we all lived
happily ever after.
Review: Great for dog hair - Best vac I’ve ever owned. We have
Golden Retriever who sheds constantly and this vac does great on
carpet, tile and hardwood. Replaced an LG Stick and this is way
better. More capacity, suction and wider so doesn’t take as long
to sweep the house.
