Shark ZU503AMZ Navigator Lift-Away Upright Vacuum with Self-Cleaning Brushroll, HEPA Filter, Swivel Steering, Upholstery Tool & Pet Crevice Tool,…

I bought this model vacuum 8 years ago, it always worked great, but it didn’t work anymore. So I repurchased this same model. I hope it will last a long too.

This is great mid to large vacuum, great for pets and kids, easy to clean, the front has lights, swivel heads. Hose is easily accessible and easy to use for edging rooms, lift away feature is great for stairs, has a large cleat canister so you can see when it’s full, really long cord and great suction

… I’ve had A LOT of vacuums. Of the SERIOUS one’s:
– The Original Dyson Animal (pricey but perfect. I killed it via massive overuse, only to find Dyson stopped making them in favor of The Ball 👍. So…
– The Dyson Animal BALL (Effective suction [the hose, like with the original Animal, REALLY REACHES up to my stair landing easily, and collapses back neatly – perfectly designed👍] but the ball is clunky, hits everything, is heavy, and difficult to maneuver. Just using it is a shoulder-injuring workout👎.
– The original Shark Navigator (white with gold trim…), DESTROYED an expensive area rug when it’s superior suction pulled a yarn right down the middle. Then it mysterously died👎
– Then we can group all the others here (Bissel, Dirt Devil, Eureka … None could be considered serious cleaners👎).

Gotta give a shout-out to the Bissel Featherweight for fast, efficient use when picking up kitty litter, etc. on hard floors. A super bargain, considering how IT gets in corners and up against baseboards in a way no BIG vac can. Too bad it’s useless on carpet😪

Then, I took a chance and got one of these. THIS VACUUM IS FAR AND AWAY MY VERY FAVORITE SERIOUS VACUUM!* I had been using the Dyson Ball on my first floor but, then, warily (thanks to my prior negative Shark upright experience), bought this white and red Shark vacuum for my upstairs, based on reviews. For over a year it has been a dream and continues to work beautifully – and it has adjustable suction! It has been perfect in nearly every way, so when I had no choice but to recruit a vac for my permanent use in my unfinished basement, I chose the Dyson for that job and went looking to buy, I hoped, the exact same Shark vac I was already using for the upstairs. Fortunately, I found it here and hope to have it by tonight or tomorrow. I got the white Shark with red trim (the teal shown as an option is NOT the same so I won’t vouch for it, especially after my 1:1 Shark brand experiences!). It’s as close to a perfect vacuum as I’ve ever owned. I strongly recommend it but, if you notice the (*) I used twice, I DO wish the folks at Shark would offer the vac with a traditional handle instead of the loop. When using the hose, the loop handle really hurts my hand and makes the hose difficult to control and “steer.” As I write this I’m thinking I hope I can get used to the loop handle when using to hose on the stairs of my foyer…😒

Muy buen producto, súper potente , Pero si me parece un poco pesada para mí y aparte se me complica aspirar abajo de camas y muebles

I’ve had this vacuum for a little over 3 years now and it is still going strong; it is the best vacuum I’ve ever owned bar none. When it goes I will get another Shark, this model if it’s still available. I cannot say enough good things about it. I do the filter changes within the recommended time frames that I’m supposed to and honestly the motor is just so powerful and the suction has stayed just as strong as when I first bought it. Off-brand filters are incredibly easy to find as well and are very reasonably priced. The attachments that come with the vacuum are incredibly versatile and well made. The wand release and lift away feature are so helpful with getting stairs. All of the bristles on the main brush are still very together and firm there’s absolutely no wear on them or fraying. Some people like to say ” they don’t build them like they used to” about a lot of consumer products out there. Well… those people would be wrong about this vacuum this is probably one of the best things you can buy for your household and count on it to work reliably day after day year after year. I would also like to add that I have been a bit rough with this vacuum like I am not a delicate person I’ve slammed this thing around a bit. am I the only person out there who really puts their rage and emotion into their vacuuming? I seriously doubt it but let me tell you this vacuum can handle just about anything you can throw at it. Also, I love how easy it is to clean hair and strands of fiber or string out of the main brush roll with the rich grooves that they’ve created in the brush roll itself so that you can slide a sharp pair of scissors or a knife into the groove and cut the fibers or hairs and then pull them out from the brush roll. It’s really hard to understand why all vacuums aren’t designed the way that this one is and have the features that this one does and have the kind of quality that the shark vacuum does. I swear that I’m not a bot or some kind of like salesperson for shark this is just really an awesome vacuum and I could rant about it all day because out of all the things that I use in my house on a daily basis this is probably my favorite and not only that but it actually looks nice too. you know how a lot of things that are white plastic that you buy get that ugly yellow dinge within a short amount of time? This vacuum is not in that category mine still is the same nice white color It had when it was purchased. All of the rubber and silicone dust seals and the places where different components of the vacuum that are removable meat are still very well sealed and there are no air leaks in the hose either I swear to God this vacuum is like a miracle that something this could can actually exist. Most stuff made out there by most companies whether it be cell phones or cars are designed to break I feel like within a few years. Maybe I just somehow got a magical vacuum that was like blessed by you know the goddesd of home economics or something but in all seriousness BUY THE VACUUM.
