Shark is bringing some style to robot vacuums.
Its PowerDetect UV Reveal now comes in four colors — brown, green, blue, and ivory. The earthy neutral palettes feature metallic accents and look surprisingly good — for a robot.

As robot vacuums become more capable, they are also getting bigger, so it’s encouraging to see manufacturers putting more thought into how they fit in with your decor.

Shark PowerDetect UV Reveal debuts in four colors (brown, green, blue, ivory) with metallic accents to match home décor. As robot vacuums grow larger and more capable, aesthetic design emerges as a market differentiator in smart home competition.
