Even though the outlook of the Shark Navigator Lift-Away Professional NV356E provides an impression that it may look similar to other ordinary products in the market, it is packed with a lot of features.

Carpet Cleaning

We don’t see many vacuum cleaners in the market that is not self-propelled. The NV356E still can drag forward a few inches if you leave it alone running. The frame is extremely lightweight making it easier to operate. The suction is very powerful as it always manages a tight grip over the carpet. And the moment you start the brush rolls, it slowly starts chugging and sucking up all kinds of dust particles on its way. But remember that the suction is so powerful that it can gobble even small pieces of clothes and scarfs. So make sure before you start cleaning, you remove all those small things strewn around the place.

Bare Floors

Even though it doesn’t do quite great on bare floors, still you can see it does a decent job when compared to other vacuum cleaners in the market. Even chugging along rough surfaces or over large pieces of debris, it still provides a great amount of suction to gobble up all the dust and dirt on the floor.

Hose Airflow Strength

Another major feature of the Shark Navigator Lift-Away Professional NV356E is its hose airflow strength. It provides an airflow similar to that of the power produced by a Dyson or a Hoover machine. The suction power and the airflow strength make the NV356E stand tall ahead of its competitors. Another highlight is the detachable canister which makes the NV356E easily portable.
