Our Verdict
Shark Navigator Lift-Away Speed
Miele Dynamic U1 PowerLine
The Miele Dynamic U1 PowerLine and the Shark Navigator Lift-Away Speed have different advantages, so you may prefer one or the other depending on your needs. The Miele has a noticeably more powerful motor, resulting in superior performance on bare floors and carpeted surfaces, and it's significantly better built. It's also easier to maintain and comes with more tools and brushes. That said, you can use the Shark in a handheld configuration, and it incurs virtually no recurring costs due to its bagless design and reusable filters.
