Features

If you're in the market for a robot vacuum that is a combination of and mop the shark 2 in 1 is a great option. Its powerful performance and smart navigation make it a must have for anyone looking to get their home cleaned without a lot of effort.

The model is available as a bundle with a bagless self-emptying base station and you can buy it by itself for $699 / about PS559 or AU$1,054. The vacuum comes with a small dustbin and a water tank that stores the cleaning solution mix. It is very maneuverable and uses the system of a path that runs from the center to each row of the room. It can navigate obstacles such as electrical cords, furniture and can even climb onto carpets with high pile. Its LIDAR sensor allows it to identify its surroundings. Additionally, you can label rooms and set no-go zones using the Shark app.

The Sonic mopping technology as well as the precise pathing make the mopping system extremely effective. It might be slower than a pricier model, like the Roborock S8+/S8, but it is capable of removing caked-on dirt and grime. You'll need empty and replenish the water tank and clean the mopping pads on a regular basis, but that's no different from other mopping robots.

The vacuum is also unable detect carpets. You'll need to manually establish zones that are not allowed or block off areas where you have thick rugs to prevent it from sucking your carpets. The performance of the vacuum in cleaning crevices is not the best.

Design

The shark detect pro self emptying robot vacuum AI Ultra 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum and Mop with XL HEPA Self-Empty Dock is sleek and stylish cleaner with a unique design that features two different dustbins. The first bin is used to store debris, while the second bin is used for cleaning and water solution that the vacuum can use to mop. This vacuum's sleek, minimalistic design and powerful performance makes it an ideal choice for anyone looking to get rid of the manual chore of cleaning.

The vacuum has a couple of important smart home features which include the ability to use your smartphone to trigger it to begin cleaning and switch between different modes. It also supports a variety of cleaning techniques, such as Matrix Clean, which uses the rotating brushroll to clean up pet hair and stuck-on debris that has accumulated on floors. The app can also let you set no-mop and vacuuming schedules, and you can also adjust the power levels for both suction and the mopping.

In our tests, the robot vacuum was able to pick up the majority of small particles and hairs of pets easily. It also was able to reach corners and other difficult to reach areas. However, the brushroll was not able to grab larger, more stubborn debris, and it was susceptible to getting caught on furniture and other objects.

During our tests, we observed the mopping function of this robot vacuum to be very efficient. It was able to clean away a number of stubborn stains. We particularly enjoyed the way it moved the pad back and forth with an scratching motion.

The vacuum also has three suction power settings, from an energy-saving 'Eco' mode to the default 'Normal' and high-power Max' modes. The battery life isn't as great as some of the other top robot vacuums, though, with 40 minutes of mopping and vacuuming the battery's capacity being reduced by 50%..

The Performance of an

While there are better robot vacuums available Shark's 2-in-1 model is well-built and an excellent choice for people who have to vacuum and clean their floors. The mops work well on bare floors, clearing away dried spills and other dirt with ease. It can even handle some pet hair.

It is unable to deal with the high pile carpet. It has a hard time picking up fine debris like baking soda on this surface type, and it does a poor job dealing with larger debris such as sand. Additionally, it could become stuck on rugs or electrical cords. It also has a high LIDAR sensor that makes it difficult for it to pass through low-lying tables and chairs.

Despite its shortcomings, even with its flaws, the Shark 2 in1 vacuum and mop is a great choice for those with a hectic schedule and small homes. Its intuitive navigation and user-friendly application help it keep up with the majority of robot vacuums, and its battery lifespan is sufficient to take care of even the biggest rooms in your home.

The only areas where the Shark 2 in 1 vacuum and mop falls short is its performance with rugs and the absence of an automatic cleaning mode. If you're looking for a machine capable of tackling flooring and bare rugs take a look at the Roborock MaxV. It has a longer battery life, a simple app, and real-time safety warning.

This device comes in many different configurations. If you don't need the mopping feature, you can purchase it as a regular vacuum with a self emptying base.

Battery life

If you're planning to invest in a dual-functional robot cleaner, you're probably hoping it to provide outstanding multitasking capabilities. The shark cordless self empty vacuum AI Ultra lives up its word on. It is very effective at cleaning pet hair and messes, and its mowing abilities are quite impressive. Its careful application of water and cleaning solution lifted minor stains and moderate staining off my bathroom and kitchen flooring and left them feeling soft and clean.

The primary drawback is its battery life. Mopping and vacuuming require a lot of power, and drain the Shark's battery quickly. After a 40-minute vacuuming and mopping session, the robot's battery had been diminished by 50%. This isn't bad but it's not ideal either. If you plan to use this cleaner to clean your whole home or if you have many furniture pieces and other obstacles that would hinder its cleaning, you'll need to think ahead and have a backup charger nearby.

The Shark app is packed with features that will assist you in managing the robot's functionality. It includes a scheduling tool, and the ability to set physical boundaries to keep the cleaner away from certain areas. The app lets you control the robot's power mode, view its current location as well as its status and push notifications.

Shark AI Ultra 2-in-1 Vacuum and Mop with XL-HEPA Self-Empty base is one of our top picks, but it is not inexpensive. The package we reviewed (without charging station) costs $699. This is a substantial investment for homeowners.

Conclusions

Although the shark cordless self empty vacuum 2 in one mop and vacuum does have some flaws but it's still an excellent choice for anyone seeking a dual-purpose robotic cleaner. It is very maneuverable and its laser mapping is better than robots that follow random routes. It is also able to navigate around obstacles such as rug tassels, electrical cords, and rug tassels without getting stuck. It is also small enough to clean under couches and tables.

The mopping feature is more difficult to maintain as you will need empty the water tank manually and wash the mop pad following every use. This can be a hassle but it's essential to stop the growth of mold. However, the app makes it easy to see when it's time to empty the bin and fill the water tank. It also features an energy-saving Eco mode that uses only half the motor's strength.

For mops the shark robot vacuum self empty base 2 in 1 vacuum and mop can remove dirt on hardwood floors, although it might require multiple passes to completely remove stubborn spots. It also can climb over carpets with low pile and does a great job. However it has a difficult to pick up small pieces of particles on carpets and could become stuck on larger flooring carpets.

Overall the shark 2 in 1 vacuum and mop has an improved navigation system than the iRobot Roomba 675, and it's more user-friendly. It's also less expensive, has a bigger dustbin and a battery that lasts longer and charges faster. It can also create carpet areas to prevent mowing floor rugs. This can be useful for pet owners.
