Product Overview

The Shark(R) PowerDetect(TM) Clean & Empty system is the ultimate cordless solution for powerful, intelligent, whole-home deep cleaning. It features an Auto-Empty dock that charges and empties your vacuum after every clean, reducing dust exposure by 1000x vs. traditional emptying. PowerDetect delivers Shark’s DuoClean Detect(TM) with dirt-detecting intelligence and multi-directional cleaning. While most vacuums push around debris with every back stroke, the redesigned DuoClean Detect(TM) nozzle eliminates this problem by capturing more dirt, dust, and debris in both forward and reverse. PowerDetect offers an impressive 70 minutes of runtime and a MultiFLEX(R) wand for effortless under-furniture reach and flex storage, while Odour Neutraliser Technology guards against bad odours inside your vacuum to help freshen your home. Put it all together, and you’ve got the Shark® PowerDetect(TM)Clean & Empty system, the powerful and intelligent cleaning solution for your home.

    Shark Never Disappoints.

    I purchased the Shark PowerDetect after the untimely demise of my beloved Shark Stratos. Cause of death? A teenager vacuuming, if you can believe that. As with every Shark product I’ve owned, I had high expectations. Somehow, this vacuum still managed to exceed them. The suction is phenomenal. It glides across every surface in my house and gets impressively close to walls and edges without leaving that annoying strip of dust behind. Its performance is so good that it honestly feels like the vacuum is guiding you rather than the other way around. The automatic debris detection is brilliant too. It senses dirtier areas and adjusts the suction power accordingly, which helps extend the battery life while still giving heavily soiled areas the attention they need. Then there’s my favourite feature: it cleans its own debris tank. Whoever came up with that deserves a pay rise. Emptying the main bin is ridiculously easy as well. The bending wand is another feature I love, and somehow it’s even better than the one on the Stratos. Honestly, this vacuum is outstanding. It’s powerful, clever, easy to maintain, and somehow makes vacuuming feel less like a chore. Expensive? Maybe. Worth every cent? Absolutely.

    Powerful surprise

    Purchased this after reading several reviews. Very surprised with the power and performance, especially on carpet. I notice the filters get dirty quickly, but are easy enough to remove and clean to ensure top cleaning performance. Highly recommended
