About This Vacuum
The Shark PowerDetect Self-Empty Robot Vacuum uses three detection technologies to handle visible and hidden dirt. DirtDetect senses debris and increases suction power and cleaning passes automatically. EdgeDetect uses targeted air blasts to pull stubborn debris from corners and edges into the cleaning path. FloorDetect recognizes surface changes and adjusts brushroll engagement for hardwood, tile, and carpets. NeverStuck Technology lifts and lowers the robot to navigate over thresholds, thick rugs, and obstacles, delivering up to 2x more coverage compared to previous Shark models. Advanced 3D Object Detection helps the robot see and avoid items both high and low to the ground. The companion app lets you set schedules, create no-go zones, and target specific areas for spot cleaning. The XL self-empty base holds up to 60 days of dust and debris in a bagless system. HEPA filtration captures 99.97% of dust and allergens down to 0.3 microns. Odor Neutralizer technology keeps the base fresh. At 14.44 lb, it handles mixed flooring and pet hair well. The main trade-offs are the higher upfront cost and the space needed for the charging base.
