Its dock washes the pad at 85 degrees, above the 75 degrees such docks commonly reach, then dries it with warm air. For Just A Dad Approved that was the change that earned its recommendation, since the pad no longer sat damp and musty between runs. Vacuum Wars ran the two side by side and preferred the unheated one, and its reason is the weak point here. The ThermaCharged put down about twice as much water, close to 5 grams on each test area, and the app has no setting to reduce it. On a glossy floor that means streaks and a wait before it can be walked on. Stains came up well, and its mopping mark of 3.27 on that lab's five-point scale beats the 2.58 midpoint. Vacuuming is the stronger half. Vacuum Wars had it over its halfway line and found its deep carpet cleaning well above what it usually measures. From Just A Dad Approved came a 6.5, half a point shy of that tester's middling 7, since a fitted pad tilts the rear up on carpet until the suction goes. The pad's 20-millimetre lift is about double the 10.5 millimetres rivals reach, and the pad may stay at the dock while the robot vacuums alone. Plan for a broad stretch of wall, as the dock spans 478 millimetres and 395 millimetres is the common width. #### Pros - Leaves carpets clean, including dirt and leaves a dog tracks in (Tom's Guide, https://www.tomsguide.com/home/home-appliances/shark-powerdetect-2-in-1-thermacharged-nevertouch-review) - Mops away muddy paw and shoe prints near the door (Tom's Guide, https://www.tomsguide.com/home/home-appliances/shark-powerdetect-2-in-1-thermacharged-nevertouch-review) - The dock handles bin emptying and mop washing, so upkeep is minimal (Tom's Guide, https://www.tomsguide.com/home/home-appliances/shark-powerdetect-2-in-1-thermacharged-nevertouch-review) - Cleans deep into carpet as well as the top robots tested (Vacuum Wars, https://vacuumwars.com/shark-powerdetect-nevertouch-pro/) - Picks up debris of every size, especially on hard floors (Vacuum Wars, https://vacuumwars.com/shark-powerdetect-nevertouch-pro/) - Bagless dock empties the bin and dries the mop with warm air (Vacuum Wars, https://vacuumwars.com/shark-powerdetect-nevertouch-pro/) #### Cons - Sometimes gets lost and shows the wrong position on the map (Tom's Guide, https://www.tomsguide.com/home/home-appliances/shark-powerdetect-2-in-1-thermacharged-nevertouch-review) - Air jets along the edges can blow debris the wrong way (Tom's Guide, https://www.tomsguide.com/home/home-appliances/shark-powerdetect-2-in-1-thermacharged-nevertouch-review) - The dock’s cord is very short, which restricts where it can go (Tom's Guide, https://www.tomsguide.com/home/home-appliances/shark-powerdetect-2-in-1-thermacharged-nevertouch-review) - Puts down so much water that floors streak, with no way to reduce it (Vacuum Wars, https://vacuumwars.com/shark-powerdetect-nevertouch-pro/) - App offers very few controls and no live map (Vacuum Wars, https://vacuumwars.com/shark-powerdetect-nevertouch-pro/) - Would not attempt even the lowest test threshold (Vacuum Wars, https://vacuumwars.com/shark-powerdetect-nevertouch-pro/) ## Our score - Score 7.0 out of 10 - Test-site results, 60% of the score: 6.7, measured by Just A Dad Approved and Vacuum Wars. - Owners’ ratings, 25%: 7.5, none yet, so the market’s mean of 4.5 stars. - Features, 15%: 7.4, 55 of the 74 points. - Deep clean on carpet: 7.1 - Pet hair: 7.3 - Mopping: 7.1 - Obstacle avoidance: 6.7 - Navigation: 4.5 - Just A Dad Approved: the test (read on 9 September 2026), https://justadadapproved.com/product/shark-powerdetect-thermacharged-av2900xe/ - Vacuum Wars: the test (read on 29 September 2026), https://youtu.be/9NqP-Qsk_XQ - Price does not count. ## Who it suits **Good for** - Rugs and carpet: lifts the mop 20 mm (https://vacuumwars.com/compare/robot-vacuums/) - Upkeep: all-in-one station **Not for** - Low furniture: 10.4 cm tall (https://vacuumwars.com/compare/robot-vacuums/) ## Frequently asked questions about the Shark PowerDetect ThermaCharged **What has the Shark PowerDetect ThermaCharged cost?** Since we began measuring on 21 October 2026, its lowest price was € 796 (21 October 2026, at Amazon.de) and its highest € 999 (3 November 2026).
