I have currently set up in my house (vine reviewer) l10s pro L20 ultra X40 Ultra X50, Aqua10, (all shark robots) and an E25. I have several other brands, but they're unknown or lesser known like Switchbot.
Of all of them, none is perfect. Aqua10 is fantastic, but crappy navigation compared to eufy. Eufy e25 has incredible navigation,with similar ability to clean.
My favorite of all of them is my E25. App is nice, but lacks the features of all the Dreames. I wish I had the opportunity to try roborock, mova, etc.
Sharks aren't horrible, but overpriced and useless compared to others. Shark makes really good hand vacuums, but their robot lineup is amateur garbage compared to the rest. They bank on their name to sell and people don't know better are happy with them not realizing the better options out there.
Just bought our first Robo Vacs,
Ecovacs Deebot x11 for main floor ($900~).
Shark AI Ultra Vac only for top floor with carpet ($250).
We just threw them in the mix without making anything ready for them so we can test their strengths or lack thereof.
Both are stellar for their price point.
Both work well in darkness for their price point.
Both avoid obstacles like pros.. as per their price point.
While Shark is doing exactly what we want it to do, vaccum carpet and bathrooms everyday. Ecovacs vac+mop has been stellar! First few rounds felt like streakleftover fest. But, by 3rd day, floors were squeaky clean.
First 2 days was all about tweaking and trying to customize everything. By 3rd, I went autopilot mode and let it do its thing. It’s working quietly at night too. We have a toddler so lot of small pieces on floor. We find everything as it is the morning or through out the day.
I read a lot and I assume that the higher you go in price, the less chance of making errors in choosing the right Robo cleaner.
Good luck and go for it 👍🏼🙏🏼
I have a robot vac dedicated to just the litter box area, so it's not tracking poo/pee germs all over the house. I know the cats also track germs everywhere, but I can't program them to stay in one place.
Shark IQ is my litter box vac. The old Deebot died, so I replaced it with my existing IQ and replaced my IQ with a Roborock. It uses a magnet strip for boundaries, but it would be nice to have one with mapping.
Roborock Q5 Max+ for the rest of the upstairs floor. It handles fur the best out of the three. Less tangles that I have to cut out.
Shark AI Ultra for downstairs. It works pretty well, but the roller is finicky and needs to be cleaned more often.
If I had the budget, I'd have all Roborocks.

Reliable, great mopping (lifts pads), but poor cable avoidance.
