Plus, the visibility encourages me to clean more.

The self-emptying process surprised me at first, mostly because of the noise.
I quickly learned this is the self-emptying system.
If you’re worried about the noise from the self-emptying feature, don’t fret.
The canister on the Shark Cordless Detect Pro makes it easy to see all the dirt you pick up.The Spruce
Theres a quiet-mode button on the canister to pause the emptying.
I use it in my two-bedroom apartment with one roommate and lots of city dust.
Another perk of this vacuum is the interactive LED panel on top near the handle (shown below).
On the side of the vacuum’s slim dock, you can see the garbage icon that you press to empty.The Spruce
It shows your battery life and lets you toggle between eco-friendly, intense, or normal modes.
Eco-friendly is a bit quieterotherwise, I opt for the normal mode.
Even on my high-pile carpet, I find the lightweight vacuum easy to maneuver.

It just requires a bit of extra grit to move it back and forth than on smooth hardwood.
After nearly a year, I’m confident I can’t live without this vacuum.
I’ll be moving apartments this year and will absolutely be bringing the Shark Detect Pro with me.

Regardless of what my next space looks like, I know this vacuum can clean it.
