Shark NV360 vs NV370: What's The Difference?

META: This article will show why you should get the Shark NV370 when you need a new vacuum to replace your broken NV360, especially when you need a similar machine.

Shark has produced so many vacuums with a similar naming scheme that sometimes can make their catalogue seem more confusing. For example, we all know that the NV370 is a newer model than the NV360, but not everyone is sure that they should spend money on it when they need a replacement vacuum. This article will help you find out the answer to that question.

The Similarities

In terms of design and feature set, these Shark NV360 upright vacuums have many things in common.

Both of them give users the versatility of a 2-in-1 vacuum. You can choose to use them in the default upright configuration or convert it to a more compact machine, thanks to the Lift-Away technology. This brilliant design allows for a greater maneuverability every user will appreciate when they need to clean small areas like stairs. You will have a much lighter machine in your hand to go around, while the combination of swivel steering and flexible handle allows you to maneuver between furniture easier.

These upright vacuums also use specialized HEPA filters to capture allergens and dust in the airflow, providing a much better performance than normal filters. They are washable, meaning you can just detach them and rinse with water to get rid of all the dirt and dust that have built up there. This is a great deal for budget-conscious customers as it helps them save a big amount of money by not having to buy replacement filters.

Additionally, the filtration systems of the Shark Navigator Lift-Away Deluxe NV360 and the NV370 are both properly sealed thanks to the Anti-allergen Complete Seal technology. It prevents allergies from going back to the environment.

The strong suction of these two vacuums are powered by the same 1200W motor. It's powerful enough to suck up dust and debris from most floor types, including bare floors and carpets.

The Differences

Compared to the jump from the NV352 to the shark navigator nv360, Shark has introduced more changes to the NV370 than its previous versions.

The Shark NV370 has an 8-inch crevice tool, a Pet Power brush, a dusting brush, and a Hard Floor Hero tool. On the other hand, the NV360 comes with just a 5.5-inch crevice tool and an upholstery tool. In terms of extra attachment alone, the NV370 has proved to be a much more versatile vacuum.

There is a small difference in weight: while the NV360 weighs just 12.5 pounds, the NV370 is slightly heavier at 13.7 pounds. The NV370 also has a bigger dust canister (2.2 dry quarts) compared to what the NV360 offers (a 1.2-quart canister). This is a significant improvement as you can spend a longer time vacuuming your house before having to dump the collected dust and debris.

The Shark NV370 has a "premium" brushroll that has been certified by the Carpet and Rug Institute that it can leave carpeted surfaces in good shape after vacuuming. This is not the case for the NV360.

Final Verdict

We have once said that you should not upgrade from the NV352 to the NV360 since it won't give much value for your money. But with many more improvements, the Shark NV370 is worth consideration if your Shark Navigator Lift-Away NV360 vacuum has stopped working and you need a similar machine as a replacement.
