Efficient for Quick Clean-Ups, But Lacks Deep Carpet Cleaning Power
The Shark Navigator cordless vacuum is ideal for quick clean-ups, especially if you need a convenient tool for everyday use. It performs well on hard floors and is faster than sweeping, with a noise level that's relatively low. However, its suction power is mediocre, and it struggles to deeply clean carpets. Additionally, it takes a while to fully charge, so I leave it on the charger often. It’s a good choice for light, frequent cleaning but may not meet your needs for more thorough carpet maintenance.

Takes to long to charge
I got the vacuum home and I plugged it in. It took seven hours to charge it. I’ve been without a vacuum for a few weeks so I needed to do a lot of vacuuming. It only ran for 15 minutes and didn’t do everything. I needed it to do the portable idea is great because it’s lightweight but after running it for 15 minutes it’s still on the charger and it’s been three hours. It takes too long to charge. I don’t wanna wait all day long just to vacuum my house. I’m going to return it.

So Impressed!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m so impressed with the Shark® Freestyle Pro Lightweight Cordless Vacuum SV1114! It has strong suction power, holds charge for hours, and is the easiest vacuum to clean! With a snap of a button, you can unlock the dust dispenser and throw out everything the vacuum picked up. I also love that this doesn’t have to be mounted on a wall. It stands up right and has a small stand where you can dock it to charge. The cordless feature has made life a lot easier especially when you have a toddler in the house making some sort of mess every other second. Our shark vacuum hasn’t let us down and is always there to save the day!

Great cordless
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The SharkFreestyle Pro is by far the best Lightweight Cordless Vacuum I have ever had. It’s super easy to use, with just to speeds, one for carpet and one for the floor. My favorite thing is the charger stand, it’s really convenient and that the capacity is big.

Love It
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m so impressed with the Shark Freestyle Pro Lightweight Cordless Vacuum. I have a dog that’s a husky which sheds year round it seems so I’m constantly vacuuming. This vacuum picks up her fur easily and I’ve never had a problem with it clogging but I do have to empty the dust cup a few times. The lights are nice and bright so you can see very well. One of my favorite features is that it lays flat and I can actually fit it all the way under my bed. It is lightweight and the swivel steering makes it a breeze to vacuum. I’m very happy with the quality and performance of this cordless vacuum.

Great mobility
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this Shark vacuum. My favorite thing is that it's cordless and not bulky. I love that I can go anywhere I need to without having to change the cord outlet. This is light weight, easy to move which is also important to me. I am a smaller person and bulky vacuums are heavy for me. Not this one! It's a nice green color. The tank isn't very big but that's to be expected for such a light weight cleaner. I was able to use this on both bare floor and carpet and it worked wonders on both I even used it on my couch to get the dog hair and boy did it it was a night and day difference. This vacuum is easy to put together literally came with only 1 screw, I love that. The charging tray is small and easy to keep out of the way. The blue light makes it easy to know when it's charging and when charging is complete. Overall, no complaints with this vacuum. I've had time to use it several times and it works wonders for pet hair!

Decent for small spaces
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Shark vacuum is slim, convenient, and space saving. It functions like a regular stand vacuum and does not come with any attachments. Initial assembly was very easy and straightforward. It came in about 4 parts and all clicked together. The vacuum has two settings, one for carpet and one for hard floors, which you select by pressing a button located on the power head. The button also functions as the on/off button and you just press it to cycle between turning it on, hard floor setting, carpet setting, and then off. I love that the vacuum is lightweight and cordless so that I can easily bring it around with me room to room and not have to worry about a cord not being long enough. In regards to charging, there is a plastic charging dock that you plug into an outlet and sit the vacuum in. It takes me about 7 hours to reach a full charge. I do find that the vacuum does not drive itself forward very much, so I do have to use more energy pushing and maneuvering it. Also, the dust cup is pretty small. I enjoy using this for quick clean up jobs, but because of the dust cup capacity, this vacuum would be best for small places or college living. I don’t find it sufficient for larger homes.

Lightweight
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vacuum has got to be the lightest vacumn i have used . Its super easy to maneuver and the perfect vacuum to have if you have little ones running around the house . I like that the dust cup is a good size so I spend less time emptying it . It quick and easy to unclip from the vacumn and place back on . It sucks up rather well and with a push of a button I can go from carpet to hardwood floors with ease. The light on the front of it is super bright so I can easily see dust and trash that needs to be picked up . My favorite feature is no cord . I always get aggravated with having to vacuum with a long cord in my way . That's not an issue with this. It snaps on and off the charger for a quick go . No more cords getting tangled up or in the way . I also love the color.

Works great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Shark cordless, light weight vacuum is amazing! It works on hardwood, laminate flooring and carpet. Transitions smoothly from different floor types with the tap of a button at the base (you push with you foot). I also like that it has a light so you can see those dark corners. It also swivels and can go between low furniture. With it being cordless, it has a charging dock or rest in when not in use. The only downfall with the Shark vacuum is it’s a bit pounder than I thought it’d be. Otherwise, I LOVE IT!

Lightweight Vacuum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this vacuum for about two weeks and there are definite pros and cons. I love Shark products and my standards are high for them. This vacuum is truly light weight, it comes in at less than 8 pounds and is cordless. I think those two features alone would make it great for anyone that has a physical disability that could make vacuuming hard or someone that is older and more weak that can’t push a heavy vacuum. Being cordless cancels out any trip hazard that could happen with getting caught up on the cord. The buttons on the bottom is just a toe tap away from changing vacuum modes of flooring or carpet. I like that it spins faster and harder to really get dirt up from a carpet but is more gentle on plain flooring. This vacuum did great with sucking up dog hair but couldn’t get bigger things like dog kibble off the floor. Something I wish was a little better is the battery life. I can clean my whole downstairs or my whole upstairs but I cannot clean them both in one charge. Also my home has radiators and while the vacuum is thin enough to go under them a little, if I go to far it hits the top of the vacuum where the buttons for the brush speed and on and off are. I also wish it had attachments to get into smaller spaces where it can’t reach or an attachment to clean the stairs off. But overall for a lightweight vacuum it is pretty decent. You won’t replace all your vacuums for just this but it’s very convenient for something quick and easy.

So convenient, powerful and no cord !
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow, do we enjoy our upright Shark Cordless Vacuum. This vacuum is super lightweight, easy to maneuver, powerful and best of all cordless. We have 2 kids and a dog, our floors are always a mess. It is so convenient to grab this rechargeable vacuum and to keep our floors clean. Right out of the box it is ready to go, 1 screw for the handle, the parts snap together - easy to assemble, it sits on a small charging stand. It is easy to change the 2 speeds for carpet and hard floors. The cleaning head has a particularly low-profile, swivel steering and bright lights to see and easily clean under my kitchen cabinets. It works great… and no cord!

Great for SMALL jobs!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Shark cordless vacuum works as it should. It gets all the dust, dirt, and pet hair. The best part is it's cordless! You can charge over night and be ready to clean those floors again the next day or however often you decide to do it. The charging base is easy to use, just sit the back two wheels of the vacuum on there and the blue light will indicate it's charging. The vacuum does have a small tank so it's better for smaller homes or use on large area rugs. If you have a pet that sheads non stop then you may find yourself dumping the tank before you get done. You will also need to have a separate hand vac as this vacuum does not have the usual vacuum attachments to do furniture. It is only for getting dirt and hair off the floor. I recommend this vacuum ONLY FOR SMALL JOBS.

Mine didn't come with the docking station or adapter when I ordered it online. Then after 4 phone calls to Home Depot online. 1 that said I had to return it in store, 1 that said they would have someone pick it up and refund me, another that told me to call back the next day because it was after 4:30pm and 1 that said they contacted the company and made a ticket number for me when I call them. I'm still waiting for my parts to come from Shark.

A delight to use, charge, and empty
It's a joy to use - the simplicity of the floor charger is fantastic. The vacuum is really well designed. All the weight is in the bottom, which is perfect - you won't get as tired as you would with other stick products where the battery & components are held in your hand. Suction is decent, have yet to kill the battery. Terrific for area rugs, tile/hardwood. Skip the broom. Dust cup is big, clean & easy to empty. So much better (for specific uses) than a Dyson.

The shark navigator freestyle cordless upright vacuum is ideal for us. We have all tile floors and it glides over the floors and does an immaculate job. Easy for us to handle .
