Our Verdict

Shark Navigator Lift-Away Deluxe [NV360, UV440]

Eureka Whirlwind Bagless Canister

The Eureka Whirlwind Bagless Canister is a better canister vacuum than the Shark Navigator Lift-Away Deluxe. The Eureka is easier to maintain, incurs lower recurring costs, is more portable, and has better maneuverability. It also outperforms the Shark on bare floors as well as low-pile carpets. However, the Shark does much better on high-pile carpets, its dirt compartment is larger, and it's easier to store.
