[Rewarded Review] Excellent choice easy to use, Time saver

This has met my expectations. The setup was easy for each room. The app is pretty straightforward and user friendly. It’s an excellent time saver. Instead of cleaning the upstairs (3 beds, 2baths) 1x per week if I have time, it’s collecting dust as frequently as I want and now 2x per week. It takes less than a minute to activate. I watched how it’s adjusted to and worked around obstructions . It’s well programmed in adjusting and working through any issues. There is a mix of wood flooring, rugs and tile floor. It has had no problem with thicker rugs around the bed. It gabbled all runners and a plush bathroom rug very well. Great time saver.

AI robots not so smart

Had a shark robot vacuum before, lasted about 3 years. Bought this new model and now they all have this laser sensor on top so it no longer goes under any of my furniture, where as the previous model did.

[Rewarded Review] Worth it!

I love my little robot - his name is Bruce and he makes my life easier! I will explain my 4 star rating. First of all, he will get stuck at least once a week. Granted, it's probably because we left something on the floor (shoelaces, clothes etc) and this happens with any robot vacuum. But if my husband didn't work from home, he wouldn't be able to finish his job! Second con is that the little brush on the bottom keeps falling off and getting lost! I put some tape on it, so hopefully it holds. I have also had to reset his mapping system once, due to him getting confused after having to be picked up and cleared of debris. If you can overlook these cons, here are the pros! This little guy cleans its heart out. He goes until he needs a recharge, then goes again! I have him scheduled to clean the whole house top to bottom during the week, and i can also spot clean on weekends or anytime. If i have people coming over, i do a full max clean and i know the floor is going to be spotless. We have several furty friends and it has been so nice not to have furr tumbleweeds anymore! I love that i can use him remotely - i was out of town and my mom was watching the house, and she said the kids made a mess in the kitchen. I sent Bruce in and he took care of it! Overall, I love this product and how much it helps our busy family out everyday! Not having to empty the bin every day, and coming home to a clean house every evening is worth ita

[Rewarded Review] Shark robotic vacuum with canister base

I have to say, I’m pretty impressed. I’ve owned Roombas in the past and this Shark robo vacuum does just as good of a job as my previous Roombas. I can’t compare it to the newest Roomba vacuums but I can say I’m pleased with this model of the Shark robo vacuum for the price. I did purchase it on sale, approximately 40% off, but I still feel that for the price, these vacuums are still way too expensive. The vacuum covers about 650sq ft. in about 35 minutes and consumed about 60% of the battery life for that amount sq footage. It was very easy to configure the app and setup the robo vacuum. I have a black lab that sheds a lot and it did a good job picking up his hair under normal mode except for the hair that is almost against the furniture. The app was easy to configure and navigate. The vacuum returns to base to charge while vacuuming and to empty its bin and then returns to cleaning when it empties its bin or recharges until the cleaning you assign it to do is complete. The vacuum is pretty quiet except when it empties its dust bin in the base canister. The only concern I have is how well the battery will perform as it ages. But, as of right now I’m am really enjoying the convenience of this robo vacuum. Still doesn’t work as well as a canister or upright vacuum, but it has reduced my hand vacuuming time to once per week while having a dog that sheds a lot.

[Rewarded Review] 5 Dogs, 5 Humans, Great Vaccum

This is my 4th robot vacuum, my second name brand, and my first Shark robot vacuum. I was hesitant because I had nothing but issues with my other ones, but this one is great! It is thorough and leaves those nice vacuum lines on the carpet, seems to do great on the linoleum too. In the months since I've got it it has never once clogged with dog hair or anything else. (Constant issue with other brands.) It hasn't once incorrectly thought it was on a cliff, or gotten stuck under or behind anything. (Except when my toddler follows him into a corner and won't let him leave.) The only thing it has gotten stuck on are dog toys with rope sticking out that get caught in the brush roll, or if the dogs chew something into medium sized pieces (like chunks of firm foam.) It finds it's way back to the dock when it needs to empty or charge and I've never had to help it get back or seat on the dock properly. My kiddo loves it and turns it on throughout the day in addition to me running it twice a day. With 5 people and 5 dogs I only have to empty the base about twice a week. (Small living area, about 700 sq ft.) This is not an advertised selling point, but my 20lb puppies occasionally step on it, and my toddler has flipped it over a few times, and it still works great. Thank you for restoring my faith in robot vacuums!

[Rewarded Review] Forever a Shark customer

I had been eagerly waiting for my old Roomba to give out so I could invest in a new robot vacuum. After some research, I knew I didn't want a combo mop and vacuum, so I settled on a specific model. I first picked one up in-store, only to discover it was used, prompting me to return it. I then ordered another one for home delivery, but it too turned out to be used, leading to another return. Finally, I found one at a store near my home, made an exchange, and eagerly checked the box to ensure it was brand new — and it was. I brought it home, and to my delight, it mapped my small (minus the bedrooms) home in less than 10 minutes and got straight to work. It's incredibly quiet, and I absolutely love this vacuum. Despite its price, the efficiency and smart features of this robot vacuum make it completely worth it. BE SURE YOURS IS NOT USED.

[Rewarded Review] **2-year review**

So i purchased this unit in November of 2021. It died in November of 2023. It would run for a few minutes then stop and make an alarm sound. The laser was clearly messed up as it was bumping into things erratically. I called Shark this November for help and the individual i spoke to was amazing. We went through troubleshooting, and in the end he said it needed a new laser base. Even though it was past warranty, he said the part was on back order and would contact me once it was ready to ship. Fast forward to January, and I've heard nothing in two months so I call again. This guy was terrible. He told me that part couldn't be replaced and that a note on my account said i was told to call back for help.. which I was not. He told me it wasn't under warranty so I was basically out of luck and he kept repeating that. So I'm pretty disappointed a $500 machine didn't last 2 years, and apparently cannot even be fixed. So no more Shark for me. Good job guys

[Rewarded Review] Just buy a Roomba

I really love Shark products, but this vacuum was a giant disappointment. It is not good for anyone with pets or pet hair. The vacuum gets clogged easily and will continue to roll around picking up zero dirt. Additionally, Shark’s product design team didn’t bother to think that corners and edges might also need to be vacuumed. It will leave a 2-4 inch swath of crumbs kicked off to the side that is not cleaned at all because they didn’t bother to include anything in the design to care for edges. Only dirt caught in the roller between the wheels gets picked up, maybe…. If it’s not clogged or malfunctioning. Save yourself the irritation of having to go behind it sweeping and vacuuming and just buy a Roomba at least Roomba has the edge sweeper to move dirt from the edges to the roller bar between the wheels. Poor design Shark. Very sad to see such low quality work from your engineers.

[Rewarded Review] Effective, reasonably quiet, easy to use

I got this as a gift for my wife for Christmas because she gets frustrated with all the vacuuming. Our house is mainly one level, about 2,400sqft, and we have the same wood flooring throughout with several thin area rugs. Since we have guests in town for the holidays, we only had the robot map about 1,400sqft staying out of the guest bedrooms.

[Rewarded Review] Convenient..BUT poor pickup!

Was excited to try this out as I have a cat and he sheds quite a bit. Went thru the procedure of mapping my home layout and the Shark took off on its run. 90 minutes later, it re-docked and I emptied the bin which lthough it had some dust and hair, there was not as nuch as I normally got. Thought this strancge as I had not vacuumed in a couple of days. So I broke out my faithful cordless and proceeded to quickly run it around a couple of rooms. When I finished and opened the bin, I was surprised to see how much hair I had picked up. That did it for me. Returned it later that week. I loved the convenience of not having to push my cordless around the whole house, but what's the sense? I looked at other Shark models, but there are so many that it's totally confusing. If there was a way to determine suction power between models, it would be helpful, but they all just say "powerful pickup"!

[Rewarded Review] Does not do as advertised

I bought this for the matrix cleaning patern. Well, it only does that pattern when you select room clean. Meaning you have to send it to every room seperate instead of just selecting to clean entire house. Very misleading. The no go option is lacking. When you set a no go area you get a box almost the size of a room making it hard to set boundaries in certain areas. Ecovacs let you create any size and shape to select smaller areas. It also shows you where the robot is on the map and wherenit has already cleaned. The shark does not. Although it does a little better cleaning due to better suction. Shark also claims hair will not wrap around brush...hahaha! I just finished cutting a ton of hair wrapped around the brush.

[Rewarded Review] Great RobotVac

After owning 2 Neato D7’s in the past, I am very pleased with this purchase. We have hardwood, ceramic tile and carpet in our house. It handles all very well and helps keep up with 2 long hair cats and wife with long hair. Setup and mapping were a breeze. Many great settings and cleaning features, the self-emptying was a great addition over the Neatos, but one thing I miss and hope is added to the app is the ability to schedule individual rooms or zones to be cleaned at a specific time. Currently you can only schedule your whole house minus any No-Go zones. That one addition would make this Vac perfect IMHO. 3300 sqft on normal suction takes about 3 1/2 hrs with 1 recharge/resume in the middle

[Rewarded Review] Absolutely without questions, awful l

I've been a user of premium (read: $900-1.4k) robot vacuums since 2016. I used the iRobot 980, the S9+, Neato's D7 and D10. They all failed, but failed for understandable reasons (except the 1.4k S9+, where the charging and auto-empty base died 2 days out of warranty, and iRobot refused to replace it, instead telling me to buy a new $300 base). So I decided to go 'midrange' with this Shark. Whoever is pricing the $600 msrp, even the $450 I got mine at, is on some strong substances. The box claims '60 days without thinking about vacuuming', yet the instructions tell you to clean/wash/dry the base filter every 30 days. Last I checked, 30 is less than 60. The box also claims that it features a no-tangled brushroll, and nothing could be further from the truth. Not only does it get hair tangled in it *constantly*, but hair can also make its way to the end of the brushroll where it then enters the small gap between the brushroll frame and the brushroll motor, where it then gets heated to a point that, when the robot is done and is sitting on the base, the hairs cool into this glue-like substance that then, in short order, jams up the motor by the new friction. It's legitimately awful. But that's not all: for the app to work (and for the bot to register itself), it connects to its online servers, which use a domain that is literally for advertising purposes, and is blocked by common ad-blocking lists. The bots battery is meh for runtime, and the thing will always wait *three hours* before resuming, even if it only needs 5 minutes of juice to finish a run. The bot picks up a laughable amount of dirt and dust, even on the max-power double-pass 'matrix' mode. It doesn't remember settings like alert volume, the map regularly deletes entire rooms and no-go spaces, the navigation is so stubborn it will fight furniture for several minutes just to entrap itself in said furniture. The initial map is all it does, so you better have your floor completely open, it will never visit an area that it doesn't see after the first go. You can't name rooms with a custom name (apparently nobody as shark has kids - it's 'master bedroom' or 'guest bedroom', nothing else). The push notifications don't work, so you'll just walk into a room to find the bot sitting on your floor, waiting for assistance. Replacement parts (filters etc) are overpriced if you get them from shark. The scheduling system only lets you do a full run, up to daily - if you want it to do just a couple rooms on the weekday, you better get used to manually telling the bot. The shark account you are required to make has a password limit of (I believe) 20 characters, but will let you register with any number of characters, locking yourself out of your new account, and you can't reset your password because you need to confirm the account, and you can't do that because you need to login, and you can't login because your password is 'incorrect' even though it's not. I've had 4 models of robotic vacuums in 7 years, which isn't great for longevity, but this one lasted 10 days. Even at $200 - run away!
