UltraVision

I second the Roborock.  I purchased one a month ago.   I originally had a “bObsweep - UltraVision Self-Empty Robot Vacuum & Mop”. It unfortunately could not keep up with my two German Shepherd’s hair.   The Roborock is amazing, and has more options than Bob. I would recommend Bob if you don’t have dogs and cats that have excessive shedding. If you need a robo vacuum to handle lots of animal hair I recommend the Roborock. I saw a huge difference between when I returned Bob and was looking for another vacuum.  A lot more vacuuming, and what I call “fur tumbleweeds”.

We have a Roborock Qrevo Pro and it does struggle a bit if there is too much pet hair (we have 3 shibas that sheds like crazy twice a year when they blow their coats). The suction power is only stated to be 7,000 pa and if it sucks in too much pet hair, it jams up inside the vacuum reservoir and doesn't get sucked out when it returns to the base. We also have hardwood floors throughout and just ordered the bObsweep UltraVision from Sam's Club since it is on sale through Nov 30th, marked down from $800 to $269. That one is supposed to be rated at 10,000 pa of suction power. We are planning on using it upstairs to replace a Shark robot vacuum that we've been using for almost 5 years.

Can y’all share what you disliked about Bobsweep? I’m not trying to argue - just honestly curious because my experience was the total opposite and I want to understand where you're coming from. I have a ton of reasons why I settled on Bobsweep after trying the brands you are promoting but I do not see one real reason on reditt from all these nay sayers except that the price is too high -- which I think was totally worth it.

Possible controversial suggestion, but try a Bobsweep Austin when they are on sale at BestBuy for $179. Might not last a lifetime but it will help get the job done. Had one for almost 2 years now.... hasn't been problem free, but the first year it worked like a charm. Support is pretty good at getting you replacement parts for free if it's under 2 years old.

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.

We bought Bobsweep, on sale & we love it!! We are a single floor...carpet & tile. Caution is don't leave doors open 🤣 One dog two people, lot's of foot traffic
