Shark Navigator Lift-Away NV352 Review: Versatile Upright

Lift-Away is a smart concept from Shark where you can “lift” the vacuum cleaner body from its heavy floor base and use it as a vacuum cleaner to clean above-ground areas such as stairs and upholstery.

You can also use this inside your car. This is the first version of the crane and a Great budget option If you can not afford to NV501 more expensive.

the most important difference Between the NV 352 and the newer NV501 this does not come with the case housing that holds the case and attachments in place.

It also does not have LED headlights and has a shorter power cord.

Let’s see how this vacuum works and what features to expect.

Quick look at the features

Positives

Negatives

What do you expect from the Shark Navigator Lift-Away NV352?

This upright broom can double as a caddy due to the lift function that allows users to separate the dustbin from the floor base.

This simple hack allows it to be used in more areas other than floors. And make this an excellent option for people looking to make more of their money spent on vacuuming.

She doesn’t have the box I made Shark NV501 she has. But it’s still a great feature when you want to clean stairs or upholstery.

If you try to clean stairs with a full-size vacuum cleaner or even with a vacuum cleaner, it can be difficult to strike a balance.

Attachments and accessories

This Shark vertical device comes with four attachments that will help you clean different areas.

1. 5 inch crevice tool
2. 24 inch crevice tool
3. brush tool
4. Strong Pet Hair Brush

The 24 inch extension crevice tool is an excellent addition because it extends the reach of the extension wand by two feet and will reach the ceilings of most homes – an area that is difficult to clean.

rope length

The power cord is 25 feet long, but it doesn’t have any wire to rewind, so you’ll have to wrap the wire around the wire hooks after each cleaning session.

Filter cleaning

It comes with two filters, a foam filter, and a HEPA filter. The foam filter is washable (wash it every 2-3 months).

Check it at least once a month to see how dirty it is. The HEPA filter, according to the reviews, is also washable but only uses running water, don’t throw it in the washing machine.

Here are some maintenance and troubleshooting tips.

Watch it in action

VacBin Review.

QVC demonstrates floor and bare floor cleaning and carpet cleaning features. It also gets what you get in the package.

Guarantee

Shark backs this up with a generous 5-year warranty, the same as Dyson’s straightforward warranty.

bare floor performance

This upright position works well on bare floors because the motorized brush can be turned off, which prevents scratches and allows it to pick up larger bits of dirt (again) like cherry or crackers. When the motorized brush is working, it tends to fling it all over the place.

carpet performance

Judging by the reviews, both written and video, this will do well on the carpet, and in a lane you’ll pick up most of the dirt despite a slight plowing effect (which you’ll see later in the video) when cleaning up larger debris like mashed potato chips or cereal.

It does an excellent job of trapping dirt under a thick pile rug, so it has deep cleaning capabilities, which is a key factor when choosing a vertical vacuum cleaner.

Vacbin compares the Navigator Lift-Away to the Bissell Wind Tunnel.

this time vs. DC41 Animal

Although this has a spin feature, it’s not as smooth as other brands like Dyson, but you’ll have to pay a few hundred dollars more for it later. The winch, though, is lighter, so this also helps with maneuverability.

upholstery performance

When you take the case off the base of the floor, this turns into a drum vacuum cleaner and cleans areas like upholstery well. It has a crevice cleaner and brush that allow you to clean the dirt and dust stuck to the upholstery.

Pet hair removal

On the rug, she would do great at picking up pet hair, as you saw in the two videos above, she picks out a whole lot of stuff. On the upholstery, it also comes with a small pet hair tool Picking up pet hair on upholstery or Stairs. This is a complete cleaning system in a lightweight package.

What do consumers say?

Almost all consumers who have purchased this product say that it performs great on floors and carpets.

The suction was phenomenal, and the beater rod does its job of deep cleaning the carpet and picking up dust, sand, pet hair and all the nasty stuff that gets trapped under all those carpet fibres.

Better than Dyson?

One consumer, in particular, compared the Dyson DC33 and said it had similar if not higher suction power.

What drove him to give this a better rating than the Dyson is the attachments that come with it. It had more and was more usable. The best part is not to pay $400++ for a premium brand.

Great for cleaning pet litter

Pet owners loved this one too because of the amount of pet hair; It is able to capture.

To maintain performance, you will have to remove pet hair that is wrapped around the motorized brush at least once a month.

The lift away feature is also popular with consumers because it allows them to clean “above the floor” areas that most rolls cannot use. The pet hair brush tool will enable people to clean carpeted stairs as well.

Here are some pictures from consumers.

There were some negative reviews, most of them were decent and finish issues that could be from the lemon units.

Some potential issues

These complaints include premature breakage of plastic parts, motorized brushes that have stopped working, lack of suction and a vacuum that tip over easily.

You have to remember that most vacuums will have their share of similar complaints. And it should not be a cause for concern as it comes with a 5-year warranty.

This is great for a vertical under $200. One consumer was able to return his Shark cart to Amazon even after seven months.

Does Shark Navigator NV352 Offer Good Value?

When you look at the performance-price ratio, the Navigator NV352 brings a lot to the table. It may not have the latest features that other Shark upright vacuums have, but what it does offer is excellent cleaning performance on hard floors and carpets. The lack of a Duo Clean brush means that it cleans carpets better than hard surfaces.

If you live in a home with a lot of carpeting, the NV352 is an excellent choice for budget-conscious individuals.

It is one of the cheapest options that has a completely closed system, which means that most of the allergens will remain inside the dust cup and will not seep through the exhaust.

The lift system offers some versatility, but compared to newer models like the ZU62 or ZU561, it’s not as good at brushing hair as it lacks Zero-M technology. This version also doesn’t have the Duo Clean system so it doesn’t clean big piles of dirt either.

Regardless of the limitations, the most important factor why I recommend this portrait mode is price. If you are looking for a work horse that cleans floors, take a look at the NV352.

Verdict: Who Should Buy the Shark Navigator NV352?

This vacuum cleaner is an excellent choice for people who are looking for a lightweight standing appliance that cleans floors well. The lift system gives it some versatility in that it also cleans upholstery. It has a flexible hose and interchangeable tools for just such. It won’t match a Dyson V10 or V11 with portability, but it’s a lot cheaper.

To sum up, here are 5 reasons why you should buy the Shark Navigator NV352:
