Shark PowerDetect Robot Vacuum
~C$699
The Shark PowerDetect Robot Vacuum is Shark's flagship with the most powerful suction in their lineup. PowerDetect technology automatically senses floor type and dirt level, boosting suction up to 2x on carpet and reducing it on hard floors to prevent scattering. The self-cleaning brushroll handles pet hair without tangling. 360° LiDAR navigation creates precise maps, and the self-empty base holds 60 days of debris. EdgeDetect technology ensures thorough cleaning along walls and in corners.
