Navigator Lift-Away Professional

The Lift-Away feature allows you to detach the canister from the main vacuum wand with the press of a button. This makes it significantly easier to clean stairs, upholstery, and hard-to-reach areas above the floor without having to carry the entire heavy unit.

Yes, it features a brushroll shutoff switch that lets you toggle between deep cleaning carpets and gentle cleaning on bare floors. Turning off the brushroll prevents debris from scattering on hard surfaces.

The vacuum uses washable foam and felt filters. For optimal suction performance, you should rinse them with water every three months and allow them to air dry completely for at least 24 hours before reinstalling.

Yes, it features Shark's Anti-Allergen Complete Seal Technology combined with a HEPA filter. This design traps 99.9% of dust and allergens inside the vacuum, preventing them from escaping back into the air while you clean.

It features swivel steering, which makes it quite agile for an upright vacuum. While it is not as lightweight as a stick vacuum, the swivel mechanism allows you to navigate around table legs and corners with minimal wrist strain.

Like most standard brushrolls, it can accumulate hair over time. You may occasionally need to use scissors to cut away hair wrapped around the roller, though the design is generally easy to access for maintenance.
