Imagine a world where cleaning is no longer a dreaded chore; a household equipped with a smart technology that senses and detects the littlest and lightest of dirt and dust, and cleans and charges itself after doing so.

SharkNinja Inc. (NYSE:SN), the #1 Floorcare Brand in the US, has turned that vision into reality with its latest smart cleaning innovation, the Shark CleanSense IQ+. To prove just how innovative cleaning can be, SharkNinja brought the buzz to Level 2 of One Ayala Mall in Makati City for a high-energy product showcase.

The spotlight was on the Shark CleanSense IQ+, designed to tackle the chaos of everyday life. CleanSense IQ+ is equipped with a lineup of impressive features that take the guesswork out of cleaning. The dream of a self-cleaning vacuum equipment came to life with the model’s Auto-Empty System that handles debris disposal for up to 30 days, and with the addition of its Multi-Flex Wand that bends for hard-to-reach spots. This is the perfect sidekick for busy professionals and homemakers alike.

Giving its potential customers and consumers a peek at what CleanSense IQ+ offers, SharkNinja, the company behind Shark CleanSense IQ+, demonstrated its smart cleaning power in the Shark Clean Experience last 25 May in One Ayala, Makati City.

The product showcase and experiential event is part of Shark’s campaign, which aims to champion smart deep cleaning technologies to redefine household cleaning into a memorable and engaging experience. Its Thailand leg received praises from Bangkok residents, and continues to create buzz online.

Star Power and Cleaning Showdowns

The event was elevated by the presence of beloved celebrity guest, Chesca Garcia- Kramer, who took centerstage alongside vibrant host Cesca Litton-Kalaw. The duo brought humor and energy to a one-of-a-kind cleaning showdown, where Chesca faced off against an audience challenger using the Shark CleanSense IQ+. Spoiler alert: the challenger didn’t walk away empty-handed, bringing home a brand new unit that will create a cleaner home, thanks to CleanSense IQ+’s revolutionary technology.

But it wasn’t just about the competition. Guests immersed themselves in hands-on experiences, putting the CleanSense IQ+ to the test. They witnessed its smart technology in action and with its LED display offering real-time feedback, every dust bunny met its match. Here are some of the key features of the vacuum:

●Auto-Empty System: Automatically empties and charges when docked, collecting up to 30 days of debris while utilizing a HEPA filter to effectively trap 99.99% of allergens, contributing to a healthier home environment.

●Multi-Flex Wand: A flexible design that bends up to 90 degrees for deep cleaning under low-lying furniture, reducing strain on the user’s back.

●Hybrid Clean Brushroll: A multi-surface brushroll that combines two brushroll technologies into one. You never have to swap floorheads again; plus, it actively separates and removes hair from the brushroll as you clean, helping keep your brushroll hair-tangle free.

●Smart IQ PRO Technology: 4 Smart Deep-Cleaning Sensors, comprising of Dirt Detect, Floor Detect, Edge Detect, and Light Detect. ○Dirt Detect detects hidden dirt and automatically boosts suction power for better pick-up. ○Floor Detect detects floor type and automatically optimizes suction for more effective dirt pick-up. ○Edge Detect detects edges and corners automatically and doubles suction power by up to 2.5 times. ○Light Detect automatically illuminates hidden debris in dark spaces. ○LED Display: The real-time LED display provides dirt detection feedback, battery runtime status, and cleaning mode selection (ECO, IQ Auto, or BOOST), ensuring an intuitive user experience.

Making Clean Out of the Ordinary

Yvonne Tey, SharkNinja’s Head of Marketing, APAC, said, “Chesca and Cesca’s dynamic energy made the perfect duo to showcase how the Shark CleanSense IQ+ transforms cleaning from a tedious task into an effortlessly satisfying experience. We create products to positively impact people’s lives in Philippines.”

Chesca Garcia-Kramer shared her enthusiasm, adding, “With three kids, cleaning is a constant in our household. But the CleanSense IQ+ has truly changed the game. The Multi-Flex Wand is a lifesaver, and the Auto-Empty Dock? A total dream come true. Anyone who knows me knows how much I love a clean home.”

Cesca Litton-Kalaw chimed in, “Who knew cleaning could be so much fun? I usually leave this to my husband but seeing the sensors in action and watching how the vacuum adjusts its power automatically was mind-blowing. I might start cleaning more often at home.”
