The Navigator and Rotator model can be easily converted to a canister vacuum thus making them ideal for both above and below floor cleaning such as fans, curtains, book shelves etc.

If you have a large floor area or prefer something that’s a bit sturdier the Shark Rotator and Navigator is ideal.

The Shark Rocket series on the other hand easily converts into a hand vacuum and is great for small apartments. It can be used on both hardwood floors and carpets.

Type of Flooring

The type of flooring plays a key role in the type of vacuum you select. All of the vacuums on our list are suited for both hardwood floors and carpets.
