The thankless job of cleaning can be less of a burden if you own a vacuum. The problem is, uprights have a huge disadvantage: A lack of mobility. They can be really heavy, and even if they have a hose, they often lack reach. Moving them around can be really tough, especially if you want to clean upholstery or the stairs. Don’t fret. With the Shark Rotator Professional Lift-Away Upright Vacuum, you never have to worry about lugging a heavy piece of equipment thanks to its detachable canister. Right now you can purchase it on Amazon for a

huge $142 off

. Get this lightweight, versatile, and highly maneuverable vacuum for just $158 instead of $300.

The Lift-Away is a fine-looking vacuum cleaner. It doesn’t appear high-end but it certainly looks sturdy. The machine is painted glossy white with red accents, with sturdy-looking components. The wand feels secure to the touch, and the transparent bin doesn’t appear flimsy. Overall, the build quality is excellent, and it seems durable enough to last for a long time.

When it comes to features, it doesn’t get much better than the Lift-Away. This vacuum has a ball-pivot head that makes maneuvering around furniture and corners easy. With just a push of a button, the Lift-Away transforms from an upright to a canister, which makes it handy in cleaning hard-to-reach areas like ceilings and tight spaces. It has an extendable hose that’s 8.4-feet long and a narrow floor nozzle with LED headlights that adds visibility to dark areas. Although corded, the Lift-Away has a 25-foot cord that enables vacuuming of the entire house by using a centrally located outlet. And at 15.5 pounds, it is lighter than most upright vacuums.

This vacuum has an extra-large capacity dust cup that is completely sealed. The canister houses three sets of filters that ensure optimum dust removal: A foam filter, a felt filter, and a HEPA (high-efficiency particulate air) filter that traps 99.9% of dust and allergens inside the vacuum. There are five attachments that come with the unit, each serving a specific cleaning purpose: The flexible crevice tool, the dusting brush, the premium pet power brush, the straight suction nozzle, and the wide upholstery tool.

According to a number of Amazon reviewers, the Lift-Away isn’t obnoxiously loud, doesn’t spew dust into the air, has powerful suction, and is pretty easy to clean. Because of these reasons, it has received an excellent 4.4 out of 5 stars rating. The Shark Rotator Lift-Away vacuum is an excellent bargain at just $158 on Amazon, $142 less than its original price.
