Shark Navigator Lift-Away Deluxe NV360 vs Shark Rotator Lift-Away NV501

The Rotator Professional NV501 is the better pick for most people. It adds LED headlights, a longer 30-foot cord, a longer hose and a wider set of tools, and owners rate it higher. The Navigator NV360 is a solid, lighter-feeling upright with strong suction and a proven anti-allergen seal, but it ships with fewer attachments and some owners find it awkward on certain carpets. Both are corded bagless uprights with HEPA filtration and a detachable Lift-Away pod.

• Choose the Shark Navigator Lift-Away Deluxe NV360 if you want a proven, widely owned upright for carpets and allergies and you don't need headlights or a long hose.
• Choose the Shark Rotator Professional Lift-Away NV501 if you want the more complete package: longer cord and hose, LED headlights, more tools and higher owner ratings.
