    Overview

    The Shark PowerDetect Clean & Empty system is a game-changer in cordless home cleaning, delivering powerful suction, intelligent dirt detection, and hands-free convenience. It's innovative Auto-Empty dock charges and empties the vacuum after every clean, sealing away dust and allergens with up to 1000x less dust exposure than traditional emptying. The PowerDetect technology utilises Shark’s DuoClean Detect system, featuring two brush rolls designed for all floor types and multi-directional cleaning—capturing debris in both forward and reverse strokes for faster, more efficient results.With an impressive 70-minute runtime, this vacuum keeps up with whole-home deep cleaning without interruption. The MultiFLEX wand adds to its versatility, allowing you to easily clean under furniture or fold it for compact storage. The vacuum also features Odour Neutraliser Technology, which helps keep your home fresh by reducing unpleasant smells inside the unit.Equipped with intelligent technology, the Shark® PowerDetect Clean & Empty system detects dirt levels, floor types, edges, and corners, automatically boosting power when needed to increase cleaning performance by up to 75%. The Auto-Empty dock means no more touching dirt, and no more dust clouds—just effortless cleaning from start to finish.
    Included accessories like the 8” Duster Crevice Tool, Pet Multi-Tool, and Motorised Hand Tool make it easy to tackle pet hair, upholstery, and tight spaces.This is Shark’s longest-lasting cordless vacuum yet, designed to capture more dirt and debris with every pass. Whether you're dealing with pet hair, fine dust, or stubborn messes, this smart, self-maintaining system ensures a powerful, hands-free clean every time.
    MultiFLEX technology

    MultiFLEX technology makes cleaning and storage effortless. The flexible wand bends to reach under furniture without the need to bend down, while its foldable design allows for compact, space-saving storage. Enjoy greater convenience and flexibility for a hassle-free cleaning experience.

    Reverse Cleaning Technology

    Most vacuums only clean when moving forward, but the DuoClean Detect nozzle works in both directions—picking up debris as you push and pull. This reverse-cleaning technology ensures faster, more efficient cleaning, reducing the need for extra passes and saving you time.

    Automatic Charging & Emptying

    The Auto-Empty dock takes care of the mess for you—automatically emptying debris into a sealed base and recharging the vacuum after every clean. No more handling dust or dealing with messy bins, just effortless, hands-free convenience for a cleaner home.

    Odour Neutraliser Technology

    Odour Neutraliser Technology helps keep your home smelling fresh by preventing bad odours from building up inside the vacuum. It actively neutralises smells from dust, pet hair, and debris, ensuring a cleaner, more pleasant environment every time you clean.

    Not for homes with multiple shedding dogs.
    I bought this vacuum cleaner last October and have had multiple issues with it jamming up with dog hair. I defiantly like the functionality of this vacuum cleaner but not recommend if you own more than 2 corgis or dogs who shed! I have owned lots of shark vacuums in past, and I always have one on standby. I wish I had discovered this issue sooner then later.

    Yess! You wont be disappointed!
    I bought this to replace a different Shark Cordless vacuum that was terrible! This thing did the job and Shark came to the rescue w a 50% off discount to purchase it! Recommended!

    Horrible product, do not recommend.
    Flimsy, battery life less than 20 minutes. Internal filter clogs up. Dirt trap door gets stuck open. Dirt container can pop open spilling contents all over your floor. Dirt gets trapped inside container, and once it's there, it is there to stay.
