Verdict

The Shark Power Detect Robot Vacuum offers outstanding cleaning performance on both carpets and hard floors, backed by strong suction, excellent crevice pickup, and a convenient bagless auto-empty base. Its innovative detect features and odor control make it especially appealing in busy, pet-friendly homes, and it is one of the best carpet-focused robots in its price range. However, weak app software and modest battery life mean it is best for buyers who prioritize raw cleaning power over smart features and long single-run coverage or mopping.
