more and more vacuum company is definitely leaning toward having an AI robot vacuum to clean your space not only that of of them doesn’t just vacuum it also mops, there’s tons out there with that feature and honestly it helps a lot considering sometimes you drip sometimes that just sticks to the ground having a simple vacuum mop does help a bit, i’d rather have a robot vacuum do it for me rather than me not being aware at all. and here we got shark latest power detect 2 in 1 never touch pro vacuum. yeah that’s one long name for a vacuum. DEVICE The whole overall built quality is plastic but with the weight and the vacuum is pretty heavy the overall packaging doesn’t feel cheap. the vacuum has the ability to shelf empty itself. Shark claim this has up to 60 days debris storage, also have the ability self clean and self dry, the vacuum has the ability to senses floor type, so you won’t have to worry about having wet carpet when it’s mopping the floor vacuum would adjust itself. the main vacuum has a small water tank that can empty and refill itself, make sure to not forget to install the small brush when unpacking the device, some might over look it coz I know I did. i’m keeping this on my basement space since it’s the flattest area around that house and I also have my washer and dryer with vent that tend to dust up the floor. basement also have an door for the dog to come in and out and it’s usually the area that stays wet due to my dogs bringing in some dirt or water due to wet grass, shark vacuum did it work and recognized the dirty floor near the back door and kept the area clean without me doing it myself. it was perfect it did such an amazing job keeping the busy area clean. I APP you can’t have a smart vacuum without an access to the app, standard features including mapping the space is currently at, ability to name your robot, my basement is not that big so mapping did not take long. you also have the ability to spot clean certain area you want the robot to focus on and again I kept using it in the morning after the dog goes in and out. the UX design of the app is very clean easy to use overall I had no complaints I feel right at home being able to navigate on shark application. CONCLUSION first if you’re a shark device fan I think this definitely one to look out for the amount of feature the vacuum offer is way more than enough to keep your space clean and not worrying about cleaning it atleast shark claim within a 60 days time frame, the vacuum has been a great thing to have down the basement, with easy setup, not worrying about dirty from front door to back door shark has been a great addition inside my household. from all its feature I think shark has done a great job building this 2 in 1 vacuum and I highly recommended it.

So, like most things, results may vary. This robot vacuum claims up to 30 days on refill/empty and 60 days on capacity, but that is completely dependent on the size of the rooms and how much activity is in those areas. If you have like 250 sq feet and only part of it is hard floor and you left the house for 30 days, it would almost certainly be able to keep the dust from accumulating on the floor in that area. But, an active area, with pets, kids and several hundred square feet, you might get 2 weeks out of it. Now, this isn’t to say that is a bad thing. Compared to the majority of vacuum bots we have had over the past few years, where you have to empty them after every use, or every couple days, this is far better. This is just like every other device that makes the best claims and puts in the fine print, based on XYZ type usage. Even still, this is by far one of the easiest robot vacuum and mop I have ever used. All the dirty work is done by the bot as it empties and cleans itself after doing the task. It even dries the pad to prevent any mold or bacteria build up. Setup of this bot is pretty simple. Basically put the ramp in place, open and install the odor neutralizer and the side brush under the robot, plug it up, fill up the water reservoir, install the app and off you go. It does an explore round, which at this point you want to make sure you have all the doors opened or closed pending if you want the bot to go in there and some movable objects out of the way so it knows to clean there when the object is not there. Then it maps the place out and even sets them up as specific rooms. Like in my image, the kitchen, hallway and bathroom are all hard floors, but open up to the living room which has carpet, so it shows the living room as a separate room. When using the de\vice, in the app you can choose the whole mapped area or which rooms to clean or a spot on the map and you can choose to vacuum, mop or both. When you choose both, it will vacuum first and start by doing the edges with the rotating edge brush. Then, it will do the middle of the areas in a nice pattern. It then returns to base, fills up with water and goes out to mop in a similar fashion. The mopping however, is like that of most robot vacuums and is mostly just dragging a wet cloth around the floor. It does not suck up any of the water along the way. Once it has done its job, it returns to the station, empties it vacuum contents, drops the pad and begins cleaning and drying. The little tune that it plays, I swear is “like a good neighbor”, but surely it isn’t, right? The cleanup that you have to do every “30 days” or so is simply removing the waste water and dumping it out, refilling the clean water and sliding out the waste bin to empty out. The waste bin is the only thing I find odd as you have to slide it to the right to get it out. So, you can’t have a wall or other item to the right of it unless you want to move the whole thing any time you want to empty it. But, once out, it is simply pushing a button to drop the bottom out of it and possibly pulling some hair. There is more advanced cleaning, like removing the washable filter, cleaning the pad or replacing it as they give a spare, but these are typical things that on a regular bot you would have to do nearly daily while this one can be months later. Overall, this robot is great for keeping the house cleaned up. I feel like with every new iteration we are getting closer to The Jetson’s or other cartoons from the mid 1900’s. The only next logical step is for them to detect when something hits the floor and cleans it up right away. But, simple, convenient and not something you have to check on every day or even week, while it does part of the chores for you.
