Shark
Shark PowerDetect Speed Clean & Empty System
This bundle pairs the PowerDetect Speed stick with a dock that empties the dust cup automatically, so the bin is rarely handled by hand. Shark lists it at $499.99, and the stick inside matches the IA1241: 60 minutes of runtime, a 0.5 qt cup, HEPA filtration and a 5-year warranty. The 14.2 lb weight Shark gives includes the dock. It is the nearest current match for the retired Detect Pro Auto-Empty System.
