Shark NV356E White
Score: 77/100
Bissell CleanView Swivel Rewind 2254
Score: 79/100Rankings
The Bissell 2254 is a corded upright with automatic cord rewind, a triple-action brush roll and five height settings, delivering strong pet-hair pickup and convenient storage. It lacks a brush-on/off switch and variable suction, which can reduce flexibility on hard floors. Ideal for pet owners who value easy cord management and adjustable height for different floor types.
The Shark Navigator Lift-Away NV356E is an upright vacuum with strong suction and a large 0.55-gal sealed bin, complemented by HEPA filtration and Lift-Away versatility. Its top-heavy design, non-retractable cord, and occasional bin leaks are notable trade-offs. Ideal for pet owners and allergy-sensitive households seeking deep cleaning.

Professional reviewers commend the NV356E for its strong suction, large sealed bin, and HEPA filtration, noting it delivers consistent cleaning on carpets, hard floors, and pet hair. They also praise the Lift-Away versatility and Dust-Away attachment, while calling out the top-heavy canister, non-retractable cord, and the ergonomics of the brush-roll pedal as minor drawbacks.
Everyday users overwhelmingly praise the vacuum's large easy-to-dump bin, powerful pet-hair pickup, and maneuverability thanks to the 30-ft cord and swivel steering. Common complaints focus on the canister's top-heavy feel, occasional bin leaks, and the stiff brush-roll pedal, with some noting the unit feels heavier than expected.
