If you are into mopping, get the Bobsweep Maxim and it will change your life forever.

Shark vacuums are trash. We bought the BObsweep Maxim in January and it has been great for our 2 bloodhounds. The only downside is that the bags are undersized and hard to get due to it being a new model

Sharks are terrible. They basically due a week after warranty goes. And not just a little, like unusable. They also dont do well with pet hair or larger floor plans. Roombas are fine for a couple years, but then break frequently. Customer service is good but its weeks without your vacuum. Bobsweep works well except for the self emptying. Its not everytime but about once a week, I do have to take out the debris in the Dustin as it won't go into the bin of the base. I think robot vacuums just aren't quite where people think they are.

The bobsweep model I have, comes with detergent. I bet that same detergent works on your model too.

Bobsweep is awful for long pet hair. I have a golden retriever and I have to clean the roller after every use. Roomba pet version w rubber roller is much better. You get what you pay for in these cases.

My current ones are both Bobsweeps, because Sam’s had an incredible deal a while back on them - I paid about $300 for a $1000 unit.

I have 2 Bobsweeps. The one that lives upstairs is primarily cleaning wall to wall carpet and it does fine, but it is self emptying 🤷🏼‍♀️

I had a bob sweep for my first and only robot vacuum and it was terrible. Now I’m afraid to take the plunge on an another robot vacuum to only throw away more money.
