Q: How much does it weight?
submitted by Madboop - 6 months ago
A: This model weighs 13.5 lbs which feels like a good weight vacuum as it is a sturdy enough to get the job done. I have a new shark cordless stick vacuum which weighs 6 lbs (and feels almost like a Swiffer spray mop but more top heavier and I am having a hard time to get used to it but when I thought about it if you get one that has light weight feature they have to take out the weight somewhere so they must have to reduce the casing and keep the parts that make it do its job so I am starting to get used to it.
submitted byLucyLoodle - 5 months agoA: This particular model weighs 25 lbs.

Q: Where does the hair go if it isn't getting wrapped around the roller? Into the dust cup?
submitted by Boodles83 - 2 years ago
A: We would like to let you know that the hair would go into the dust cup along with all the dirt.
submitted byShark Support Team - 2 years agoBrand expertA: I am not sure how to explain it but the one I have which is one of the cordless stick vacuum but uses the same roller brush. It is larger in diameter and the actual brush parts are made to not keep the hair on it. I was surprised to see all of the hair in the dirt container and 2 hairs on the roll but laying sideways and would have gone right to canister if I had kept on vacuuming. I can't say I am thrilled at with the one just bought but every time I use it I like it more and has great battery time but I have but I have only heard good things about this one so I may return and get this one.

Q: Having issues with this not tilting back to use on carpet?
submitted by KrissyMama - 3 months ago
A: If your Shark Navigator Lift-Away ADV is not tilting back properly, make sure the vacuum is fully upright before trying to release it. Place your foot firmly on the floor nozzle while gently pulling back on the handle. If it still won’t tilt, check for obstructions in the tilt mechanism or swivel joint. If the issue persists, contact Shark customer support at 1-800-365-0135 for further assistance.

Q: Will this clean a high shag carpet?
submitted by Sara - 3 months ago
A: The Shark Navigator Lift-Away ADV can clean high-shag carpets, but performance may vary depending on the carpet's thickness. The PowerFins and self-cleaning brush roll are designed to maintain continuous contact with surfaces, but on very high-pile or plush shag carpets, pushing the vacuum may feel more difficult. Adjusting the suction control slider on the handle can help reduce resistance.
submitted bySharkNinja Product Expert - 3 months agoBrand expert
Q: Does this model come with a manufacturer warranty?
submitted by Linda - 3 months ago
A: It does. Ninja covers the product with the Five (5) Year Limited Warranty when the product is registered.

I was using a dyson for years before I bought this shark. From the first second I switched this one on, I was SHOCKED at how much dirt and cat hair it pulled out of our carpet before I even had a chance to move it around the room. It was kind of horrifying to see how much was in our carpets, but SO satisfying to see all the dirt, dust, and cat hair fill the bagless chamber. The suction power is INSANE. The liftaway feature is helpful for vacuuming hard to reach places like behind our bed. The debris canister is easy to remove and empty. I have no complaints!

I purchased this vacuum 6 months ago and it has been wonderful! Has great suction, easy to carry, and simple to clean. I was pretty blown away at how much I got out of our carpets after my other vacuum cleaner died. I really like that I can purchase other attachments also. This is my first shark product and so far it's lived up to the hype.

Unrepairable and Designed to Break

Alex M - 4 months ago, Verified purchaser
The suction is very good, though I notice no difference between carpet and hardwood mode at all. The brush roll does prevent hair wrap as advertised. The cord is very long, which I prefer, and I actually find the lift away feature to be very useful. That's where the positives end I'm afraid. The hose is very short and causes the vacuum to tip when using the wand. The worst feature is the aggressive attack on Right to Repair. The number of special bits and screws and hidden tabs and difficult disassembly just to take the roll off should be illegal. This vacuum was designed to break and be unrepairable when it does. I expected so much more at this price point and I feel cheated. Shark/Ninja should be ashamed. This vacuum has definitely cost them a few future customers.

This is my 3rd type of Shark and I seriously can't understand why people like this brand!! This model is a complete waste of money and I've only had it 2 months. It doesn't suck well past the first week. The hose is way too short. It spits everything out in the front. The lift away feature is a joke. What brainy engineer thought anyone would want to lug around any part of a vacuum? Especially with a short hose because it tips over repeatedly. I'm done with Shark.

I never write reviews for anything but after the time I’ve had with this machine from hades I felt the need to warn others. It’s marketed as being good with hair, right? True! Hair never got clogged. However, when your toddler makes a big flour mess everywhere AND you have a dog, the underside of the clear housing is going to get dirty. Well, take it off and clean it, right? No, first you need 3 different sizes of special security drill bits. After waiting for a week for Amazon, you need to find the hidden screws. We’re talking like 20 screws of different sizes, half of which are hidden and only found after watching YouTube videos. When they’re all out finally, and you pull the housing, the plastic snaps in half. There are little tabs internally that are hidden from view that must be pulled at exactly the right angle or they break, fully bricking the machine. Waste of time, money, and energy.

This has been a horrible online shopping experience. Member services have no clue how to resolve an issue. Three phone calls multiple times on hold or given another phone number,. Then I was told it had to return to the manufacture. Number given, I call they just about laughed in my face. So now a spent $200 on something I never received and get return the incorrect model they sent. 😡😡

I had old shark vacuum (the orange stick one) and was SO excited to upgrade to the bigger filter. I feel like this cleans SO well. I love this vacuum. I’ve only had it about 2 months but the suction is still great and easy to clean. Not to mention the maroon color is so pretty.
Great Vacuum

For the kitty owners with hard floors — this is for you. Do you have battle scars on your ankles from little kitty litters flinging out of your vacuum cleaner? Not one single piece of kitty litter flings with this. The vacuum itself is kind of loud but it doesn’t sound like you are vacuuming up metal nails when you vacuum litter either. Pet hair is sucked up, dirt, dander, everything. I have a Dyson V7 animal and while I do love that vacuum for different reasons as well, this Shark is THE ONE for all over. Cons? It’s loud, heavy, has a cord, and it’s hard to vacuum under things without moving them. With that, it’s more powerful though and doesn’t have a shut off after 30 mins because the battery died. It also worked very well on hard floors, carpet, and little area rugs.
Great vacuum!

Love how easy this vacuum is to switch between upright and hose modes. Does a great job with dog hair and works very well on my carpet and hardwood. A few of us in the family have this vacuum now and all love it. I also really like the under the furniture attachment you can get from shark.
