Rare Shark Vacuums?

Good to know ☺️

Euro Pro had some cool machines and I only have one true power head canister. I can't find a sliver of info on that particular one. No reviews, no parts lists... Any info on it?
 
Euro-Pro is now known as Shark. Most of their early stuff is little known or documented. I think they primarily sold through home shopping channels and then they filtered into big box stores gradually.
 
This is the only real photo online

of the Shark Trailblazer. This actually popped up at a local Savers around Christmas and I had a temptation to get it. The only thing that kept me from doing so was the numerous reviews of early Shark vacuums having an overheating problem. Anyone know how often an occurrence that was on the old Euro Pro units?

Unknown Shark Model

Does anyone know the model of this shark vacuum? There’s a local goodwill that has a mostly complete one. I’m thinking about buying it since from an earlier post it seems quite rare. What do you think?

I remember those Shark 3 in 1 vacuums. I received one as a Christmas present back in 2010 from my previous stepfather👹. I actually wanted the Dirt Devil FeatherLite Bagged but this one was not too bad. They're known for being too bulky and it's monstrosity look. They would've been better if they had a power nozzle for rugs and carpets. I donated it to Goodwill back in 2018 since I lost interest.
 
This is an oddball

Shark released a Rotator Powered Lift-Away canister vacuum in late 2014. It is bagless, and how is the "Lift-Away" feature utilized? The main suction motor piece lifts away from the wheels. This design choice always struck me as odd.

It appears that this machine didn't sell very well, making it a rarity. I could only find one review of this vacuum on YouTube. In it, the presenter criticized the Lift-Away feature, calling it "extremely heavy" and not very practical for cleaning stairs.
