Shark has recently realized something that other vacuum brands have never seen before: Vacuums are allowed to be colored other than black or white.

Announced on June 3, the Shark Home Luxe collection features a high-end Shark robot vacuum and a high-end Shark cordless vacuum in four chic earth tones. “As robot vacuums and cordless systems become a part of everyday life, consumers are increasingly looking for products that feel more integrated with their spaces instead of something they want to hide,” said the press release.

I could no longer be seen. I can’t remember the last time I reviewed a robot vacuum or a cordless vacuum and didn’t consider their street appeal. Living in an apartment with limited floor space, any large, beautiful entryway should be placed in the main living area where it will be seen every day.

The decision to switch to exciting colors seems simple, but I learned during the presentation that the design process of the Luxe collection was actually quite complex.

Shark’s design team was inspired by the natural elements that are already evident in our homes through furniture, floors, and walls. Greens are not just green, “sagewood” or “evergreen.” Brown and tan? More like “espresso” and “oatstone.” Whether your decorating style is modern, rustic, boho, or some eclectic mix that you can accurately describe, the Luxe Home collection has a color to rock.

Prior to the color palette, the design team used ribbed textures, metallic details, and satin finishes to enhance the general visual interest of each vacuum. The goal was to add a touch of natural comfort to the muted natural colors chosen – and to get far, far away from the technologically applied ladder we’ve been forced to accept in our flawless spaces for years.

What’s more surprising is that both Luxe collections are priced the same as their “regular” counterparts: the Luxe Shark PowerDetect Speed ​​Clean & Empty costs $499.99, while the Luxe Shark UV Reveal robot vacuum costs $1,299.99. Let’s explore your options.

Just released in April 2026, the Shark PowerDetect Speed ​​is Shark’s new wireless stick detector. The Speed​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ is some of Shark’s heaviest towing power to date, contained in a body that is a pound lighter than the previous Shark PowerDetect version.

The original PowerDetect vacuum cleaner has been my go-to pet hair dryer for almost two years. Now that I have the sagewood version of the PowerDetect Speed ​​at home to test, I have a feeling this will be my new stick vacuum for carpeting. The suction is so strong that you can feel the rollers of the brush digging into the carpet fibers, but with a carefully designed air flow that easily pushes the carpet.

Since the vacuum empties itself every time you return it to the tank, you start each new cleaning session with an empty tank – you’ll be able to see the evidence indeed how much gray fluff was removed from the adjacent room.

The Shark PowerDetect UV Reveal robot vacuum is one of the most innovative robot vacuum and mop combos of 2026 to date, and is easily Shark’s best robot vacuum, ever.

During each cleaning job, this Shark bot also scans the hard floors with a UV lamp to find any invisible stains you might have missed. If something is detected, UV Reveal kicks into hard spot cleaning mode. That includes scrubbing from multiple angles with 1,000 sonic vibrations per minute.

In my testing, the UV Reveal tripped over hidden dried puddles many times (one was cat puke runoff that wasn’t properly cleaned, the other was the sticky liquid that often sits around cat food bowls and water bowls). I didn’t know they existed, and so did the AI ​​spotting cameras of some of the high-end robots I was testing. It’s an amazing process to watch, NGL – and after seeing the time spent scrubbing each dirty spot, I can vouch that my hardwood felt clean when the UV Reveal was finished.

As Mashable’s resident vacuum reviewer, there are three to seven robot vacuums under my roof at all times. I’m very familiar with black, white, or gray (if the type is feeling bad) booths that are cheap to maintain in my cozy, jewel-toned living room. During a forum about the launch of Luxe Home, one of the Shark designers really spoke my language: “Robot vacuums have been black and white discs for a long time, and we’re doing consumers a disservice by not giving them options that fit their lifestyle,” he said. “There are many opportunities to add happiness to places [cleaning] people who didn’t expect it.”
