    To start with the straightforward stuff, it is a fantastic product for those looking for something simple to keep their rooms clean when they cannot do this. I would not recommend it for super heavy cleaning of tons and tons of fur if you have a husky or another large shedder. I do not have any pets, so this was fine with me. I use it in my basement because it gets pretty dusty down there fairly quickly. It keeps it very clean, especially from all the debris knocked off of shoes. The app was, at first, minimal and did not provide much control over the robot. But they just recently released an update that shows a more clean interface, and it allows you to pause the robot if there’s an issue. Before there was no pause button, so it would be difficult to resume it when the robot would get stuck in a situation. It definitely takes more than a few runs to learn your room and to stop running into things. I have watched it slowly grasp where everything is, and it has finally stopped running into problems as much. It used to get stuck under my computer chair, but now it recognizes it and completely ignores it. It does an excellent job of cleaning dust, debris, and even little critters. There are 3 different modes to choose from when it comes to suction strength: • Eco mode is suitable for light cleaning around the rooms if you want to save the battery and such. • Normal mode works fine if you are doing a regular clean. I mainly use this mode because it cleans the best while reaching all rooms without running out of battery. • Max mode will cause it to lose battery much quicker, but it will clean at the maximum suction. This mode is excellent for these types of situations. However, I would not recommend using this mode if the area you are cleaning is large in size.

    I’m not sure if this was a great buy for me or not. It took me months to get this little vacuum and myself too coexist together. Every day when I come home, I have to check to make sure it’s on the port and if not, I have to search my house for it. I bought this because somebody had wrote that it did really well with picking up birdseed it does not and then also it clogs all the time. If you don’t have pets it would work great.

    The pros: it does do a decent job of cleaning and works well on my carpet and much better on my tile. It has only gotten stuck once and sadly was under my desk. The unit has gone throughout my home (areas i want vacuumed). The unit is small enough to get under my couches, bed, and will make its way around my chairs and tables. Overall, there is value in the unit and what it can do. Wearable/Replacement parts seem to be readily available and priced reasonably. The cons: the AI/mapping is rudimentary at best. We have cars that can successfully self-drive but we cant seem to get a vacuum to map a home correctly. Ive now reset my unit 3x and tried to get a good map of my home... and to date without a strong degree of success. I get a map. The map has some areas that look like my home, but.. and esp as you get outside my open floor plan area, it seems to struggle understanding where my bedrooms, baths, office, laundry, etc are in relation to the open area. it seems to use the first 2 runs to do the initial map of your home and doesnt seem to up date the initial map much after that... if at all. After that, it just seems to clean what it mapped on those first 2 runs and doesnt really update the map after that (or so it hasnt seemed to in this case). Help resources stink. Theres not much in the literature and even less online. So, do i wait for some sort of notice that the map is complete or do i accept the initial one and it will update it as it learns more?? The unit runs for 60 minutes then docks. It doesnt matter if the battery is 15% at the end or 80%. it docks after 60 min and there doesnt seem to be any way to change this (ive been completely throughout the settings.. and again.. documentation is terrible esp within the app).Evac and resume will pause for 3 hours regardless if the battery charge is 15% (which it needs some charge) or 80% (it should just resume at this point.. but no, its going to sit for 3 hours). it does this regardless if its cleaning or if its mapping out your house. Firmware updates are pushed and cannot be requested. So, lets assume my firmware is out of date by a release or 2. I cannot download and apply it to my unit. it has to be pushed from some central server somewhere to my unit. Im not sure if my release is current or not (2020 is the date of the last update... which may be WHY the AI/mapping seems quite dated in capability). And, if this is the latest version... that would have me question the commitment by the manufacturer for this product. Overall, the unit is good. It does a fair job at cleaning and does offload the stuff it picks up into the bin which does last a while (have the 45 day bin). The unit does a really good job of avoiding getting stuck and if it vacs up something (like a toddlers sock) it will alert you to the issue. There is so much more potential with this device and it seems much of this is software/firmware related (hardware is pretty solid). Im hoping the company makes some changes to allow some more self-service, improves the mapping and AI capabilities, and releases regular updates. If not, then open this thing up to third party tools which will do this for us.

    I love my shark robe vacuum. I bought this after watching my daughters work around in her home. Ive named her Hazel and she is wonderful. The first couple days she worked she filled really quickly - the crazy thing went under me bed and found lots of dust bunnies - thank you Hazel. Now she can pretty much do the entire house with only one trip back to empty. Ive had Hazel about a month now and have found nothing I dont love about her. Twice she got her self into a spot where she needed help to get out. The notification part of the app told me of her distress and it was an easy fix. I never thought Id want or need a robot vacuum but now that I have one Im never giving her up!!!

    I got it at a large discount and I like the self-emptying feature, so 3 stars. The cleaning performance and coverage are OK, about the same as my 1st generation roomba. The smart features are designed terribly. The creepy eye with an internet connection is a privacy concern and is useless for mapping. Why do you try to map walls while its so much easier to map the working area? You could use cheap ultrasonic radars for that. That would also allow to discover obstacles without bumping into or climbing onto them. When it tries to run over my bare foot, that actually hurts a bit. The map is not utilized for route optimization: robot keeps bumping into walls and ignoring doorways even after it has mapped out the room. It wastes battery while doing that. The docking algorithm is ridiculous - docking can take up to 3 minutes. It cannot climb the raised front edge of its own docking mat.

    I previously had less expensive robot vacuum of another brand and it worked well for about a year until the pets killed it out of curiosity. I went about 6 months without it but definitely missed it with 2 dogs and 2 cats inside. I had major rotator cuff surgery some months back and vacuuming still irritates my shoulder so I went to looking for another robot vacuum to help. I settled on this one and love it! I run it at least once a day throughout the house common areas about half standard carpet and half LVP flooring. My house is large so it runs quite a bit. The battery charge can all the areas in one charge and I have it set to automatically return to station to empty when it gets full then it return vacuuming. It picks up pretty well and makes it much easier to keep carpets clean. I still vacuum weekly with my corded shark upright because cordless vacuums don’t have the power corded do but sure make life easier. This little guy picks up everything from flour to cat food, it’s low profile enables it to reach under cabinets and into corners and it’s pretty good at emptying its canister but sometimes will let you know it needs help and you have to manually emptying out the canister but overall it works great !

    My Lady-Friend saw this Model on Sale for 200 Dollars off for a limited time. I had talked about getting a robot vacuum and this was the opening I was waiting for. Amazon shipped it to us and we received it without any incidents. Setup was a breeze. It is easy to assemble, and getting it onto my WIFI Network was a breeze. I had some issues until I discovered I forgot to switch my phone with the app from the 5g signal to the 2g signal (very important). Once I did that, setting up the Robot on the App was easy. I really have any complaints about the Shark Robot. It does what is advertised. It is actually cleaning our apartment as we speak. It does a good job of finding its way around without getting stuck. The only time it got stuck was when it was cleaning under our bed. I put down some of the magnetic border strips to keep it away from my surge protector and the wires around it, and it got stuck between the strips and one of the bedframe support posts. It was an easy fix, just moved the strips in more to give the robot more room to maneuver. Problem solved. So far, Im happy with my purchase. Now, the Kraken in the Room: The Suction. I think it is decent for what the Robot is. I did a good job of picking up the dirt and lint that was under our bed that we could have never gotten with our normal vacuum without moving the bed. Understand that this Robot, especially at this price point, will NEVER fully replace your standard upright vacuum. The purpose of this robot is spot cleaning and keeping a base level of cleanliness. You should still have and be using your upright for when you need true deep cleaning. In closing, this is a powerful little robot that does the job that it is advertised it will do. It is easy to set up and easy to use. If you absolutely HAVE to have a more powerful robot that does more of the deep-cleaning that youre looking for, the Roomba has a model that is around 800 bucks. Thank you, and GOOD NIGHT NOW!!!

    Just bought our second one. I would say the only thing I dont really like about them is they have no problem running over my feet. You would think the sensor with sense the human!

    First experience with a robot vacuum and not overly impressed. First unit lasted around 6 months before a component failed. Shark did replace it under warranty after I paid a nice shipping and handling cost of the replacement. Cleaning: It does well maintaining but does not deep clean. I purchased this unit due to the multi-floor and because we have a semi-indoor blue healer. The unit definitely keeps the hair from building up but we still need to do an actual deep clean from time to time to get everything. Mapping: I had to delete the first few maps on both the original and the replacement until they looked correct. I was hoping to be able to schedule the kitchen and living room nightly with the bedrooms weekly (dog doesnt get to come into the bedrooms). But when I would use the app to just clean one room_ it would go through the entire house anyway. I gave up on the map/room aspect and just hit the clean button on the unit when I wanted it to run. The barrier function is useless. Unless it already maps the space, you cant set it up. It it also very course in its mapping, there is no fine tuning. I wanted to set up a barrier on out laundry room so that it never attempted to go in that space but would have to let it map the area a few times before I could block it - I ended up just shutting the door. I tried to block the area of the Christmas tree the first year but it ignored it and plowed through the presents and the tree skirt anyway. AI: The programming lacks finesse and the ability to learn. Both units likes to bump into things and turn to discover its boundaries (and never stops). I put weights in front of the doors so that it doesnt shut the door on itself, pick up chairs so that it doesnt wedge between the legs, put a trashcan next to the toilet so that it doesnt hop up on the bottom of the toilet and get stuck, and move the entrance mat so that it doesnt get stuck between it and the wall. It doesnt learn where obstructions are to avoid them. I made tubes to act as barriers around the Christmas tree this year, Ill need to add some weights on them as it keeps trying to push through them. It works ok as long as you are there to fix it when it gets stuck. I do not schedule as I dont let the unit run when Im not home to monitor. Once the warranty is out and this one dies, I will most likely try a different manufacturer.

    I bought this about a week ago and it has not disappointed so far. I have a large ranch style home and 4 cats that are currently shedding for the summer months. This little vacuum has really helped keep the cat hair tumbleweeds away. I have it set to clean daily and do the charge and continue cleaning, so it will run throughout the day until it has cleaned the whole house. We have a sunken conversation room and it has not fallen off the step so far, it will go around it. It works great on carpet and tile floors. It cleans up after my kids very well. I’m very happy that I bought this so far and don’t know why I waited so long to get one.

The Shark EZ Robot is your easy path to a smart clean. It combines the convenience of a self-empty base with powerful Shark suction for a complete home clean. After each cleaning session, your robot automatically empties itself into the bagless self-empty base, which holds multiple sessions’ worth of dirt and debris so you can forget about vacuuming for up to 30 days. Now that’s easy.
