'Lightweight but sturdy': Shoppers love this Shark vac and now it's under $100

What is it?

We're all guilty of letting the dust bunnies pile up when the thought of pulling out the vacuum is too much. (They're called chores for a reason, right?) But trying to shove a heavy piece of machinery that seriously lacks suction into tight crevices can feel futile anyway. Well, this no longer needs to be your vacuum journey. Walmart's latest deal on this incredible Shark vacuum might make the floor-cleaning process, dare we say, enjoyable?

This upright vac from Shark boasts some serious suction, as well as a serious discount.

Why is it a good deal?

Walmart's amazing sale on the Shark Navigator has the vacuum marked down to just $97, which means it's over half off of its usual price. That means you're getting a high-quality, highly-rated, super-powerful vacuum for less than $100. We know — we can't believe it either.

Why do I need this?

It's a great time to do a deep clean of your living space, since we're transitioning to fall and winter and thus, to the more "indoors" months. And before we spend a lot more of our time around the house, don't we want to make sure that area is sparkling clean? The Shark Navigator will help do just that, removing allergens and built-up dust and dirt from your living space with reliability and ease.

There's a reason this Shark Navigator has been branded an XL — it features an extra large dust cup to help you get rid of messes all over your home without the need for constant emptying. But when it is time to dump the mess, the dust cup can be easily removed and emptied into the trash without any hassle.

Dust and allergens don't stand a chance against the HEPA filter trap which can catch particles as small as .3 microns, while the handy hose attachment allows you to reach dust and cobwebs up high. The Shark is also incredibly easy to handle. Because it's lightweight, it can be carried from room to room without the needed for a bonus gym sesh. And if you need to get into those hard-to-reach spaces, you can use the lift-away detachable pod to clean your stairs, furniture, car and more.

What reviewers say:

One reviewer notes that even with seven shedding fur babies, the Shark held its own. "We have four dogs and three cats in our home so it can be a challenge to keep up with the shedding. We recently tried the Shark Navigator XL vacuum and I am very impressed. This thing managed to suck up all kinds of dirt and hair my other vacuum left behind! The filter also seems to work better on this vacuum, as I find myself not needing to dust as much."

Another fan was astounded that, despite their frequent cleaning, the Shark managed to pick up dirt they missed. "This vacuum is a game changer. I am a very tidy gal and I vacuum all the time. I am surprised to collect so much debris every time I vacuum. It is very powerful."

A happy five-star reviewer couldn't believe how easy it was to navigate the Shark throughout their home. "The vacuum is lightweight but sturdy. It swivels, rotates, and steers easily around furniture and into corners. The swivel steering feature allows you to easily maneuver your vacuum from your carpet to hardwood floors, so you can clean every inch of your home with minimal effort."

Cleaning made easy — could it be so?

Deep-clean both carpets and bare floors with superior suction. Plus, an extendable hose allows you to clean higher-up surfaces.
