Review 1 for Shark Navigator Lift Away Pod Portable Vacuum, NP318

this vacuum makes life easier

I like the long long power cord and lift away on my shoulder. it makes so easy to clean everything.
This time my vacuum won't tip over on the floor and I have a long way to go. I vacuum from upstairs room through all 14 step stairs to downstairs living room all the way without stopping on changing my plug. At least for now, I didn't smell anything while vacuum compare to all other
vacuums which always produce a lot of awful smell while working.

As a EuroPro brands ambassador I have been selected to test and keep the LiftAound vacuum in exchange for reviewing the product. Don't let its size and inexpensive price fool you. This vacuum has great suction and will be perfect for any job you may have for it. I love the size because it's easy to grab for the little clean up jobs around our house (which happen often with three kids and a dog). I have also used the vacuum several times for cleaning our cars. The attachments make it great for this job, getting into all the nooks and crannies and really doing a great job on the mats. I would recommend this to anyone who's looking for a product that is easy to use right out of the box, doesn't lose suction, is very manageable and works fantastically on any job, big or small.

I bought this vacuum to help me clean out my car and it works great! Many tools and very powerful. I saw some reviews saying there isn't a place to wind up the cord, but it comes with a Velcro strap, which when used correctly, functions well to control the cord!

This product really produces. Upon receiving the vacuum cleaner, I cleaned the basement (which we have animal hair ) and it worked wonderfully. I did the stairs going up as well as small areas not reachable with other products. With its portability I was able to do the car completely. I'm one fussy guy with my cleaning and this vacuum cleaner does the job.

THE VAC IS VERY WELL DESIGNED SO THAT THE PARTS ARE COMPACTLY ARRANGED FOR STORAGE. ALSO, IT HAS SIGNS TO SHOW WHERE THE PARTS SHOULD ATTACH. IT IS A GOOD VAC FOR LIGHTER DUTY WORK. THE ONLY IMPROVEMENT I CAN SEE IS AN ADDITIONAL, ROUND BRUSH THAT CAN BE USED FOR SMALLER AREAS.

I think this product is great, but for small areas such as couches and ceiling fans. This wouldn't work for a whole carpet. I'm returning it, because I need to vacuum my living room without getting a backache.

Just what I was looking for

This is a great little vacuum. Big enough to do the job, small enough to easily carry. This is not for vacuuming floors but it is awesome for baseboards, corners, stink bugs and lady bugs in the windows, cobwebs, etc. It is lightweight and the three little attachments fit on the bracket and go along for the ride. I didn't even look at the manual -- just looked at the release buttons and was able to pop the container off to go outside to empty. Easily reattached and I was back in business. Much more powerful than a cordless but just as convenient. With an extension cord, I'm sure it will be incredibly helpful for getting into nooks & crannies in the car, too.

Great product. Used on my hardwood floors mainly for dog hair that the broom just wasn't efficient. Also in the truck for dog hair that has been there for ages! Picks it all up no problem! Excellent vacuum. Easy to Cary around light long cord attachments cover everything I need it for. Sucks up quarter sized plaster mess like it was a piece of cotton awesome!

Even though its not for big spaces I know it can do the job, the thing is that it'll take you a long time. I have very little rooms, so it helps. Its great for edges, corners and walls; Its quiet and powerful.

This Machine is worth every penny. High quality it light it is easy to use. And it more powerful then my upright vacuum. Once that dies defiantly getting a shark upright. Nice to have a good alternative to way over priced dyson products.

Hated it

I thought this would be a compact easy to use vacuum ideal for hardwood floors. First off its a bit heavier an I imagined. My shoulder felt tired very quickly after just a few minutes. The body itself was clunky and very aggravating to deal with while vacuuming steps. The attachments are cheesy and cheap and nothing locks into place with male/female type click fit. The long attachment was ready to buckle while i was just sliding it along the floor. The floor attachment was cumbersome and didn't pick up well. The only worthwhile piece was the upholstery brush which rotates by suction. I love Shark products and was very disappointed.

I am so excited to find this vacuum! It is light enough to carry aroundand the ajustable extention rod is unique. , It is compact to store and the suction is terrific., The only thing they didn't addrss is storing the electrical cord-which by the way is plenty long as you are using this. I love it

Very Handy Vacuum!

I bought the Shark Lift Around about a month ago at my local Walmart store and I love it!
Because of the compact size it definitely helps you clean those hard to reach places in your house. I'm so excited that it is now so easy to get rid of the cobwebs in the corners where the walls and ceiling meet. I also use it to do a quick clean up of the floor around my couch and table (I have wood floors#.
I am also very pleased with the suction. Finally, all of the attachments #except for the hose extender) fit neatly on a little carrier which in turn attaches to the unit itself.
While I am very pleased with the purchase, there are some things to consider before buying this:
-The Lift Around is still a vacuum with a motor so it's not the lightest thing I've ever held. It's a little more than 8 pounds which doesn't sound heavy, but when you have it hanging off your shoulder for about 5 minutes, you start to feel it.
-The shoulder strap is very handy, but instead of letting the vacuum hang on the strap dangling from one shoulder, I "wear" crossways so the weight is distributed more evenly across my body. This way I don't get pain in my one shoulder after just a few minutes.
So if you have possible issues with carrying things that are more than 5 pounds, you may want to take that in consideration before purchasing, but otherwise go for it!
I do wish they would have found a way to store the cord somehow or made a way to hang the coiled up cord from the unit, but for me that's a minor issue.
I would definitely recommend purchasing this product.

This is working out very nicely. Great to vac steps and dust furniture and get into small spaces. Also, pet hair. We have a terrible stink bug problem in our log home, helps to vaccuum the critters up.
