IQ 2in1 Self-Empty Robot Vacuum & Mop RV2402WS

I have one of those cheapo Shark like $150 vac and mop combos I fuckin love that thing- we only have LVP flooring, and 3 litterboxes so there is constantly litter and dust EVERYWHERE- and this little Sharkqisha Clean Latifah keeps that bitch *sporklin'*

Shark Iq matrix two in one.. There are lots of different kinds that are named that. Mine was five hundred dollars, on sale for 298 at walmart. This one has the feature where it empties itself on vacuum only mode. Otherwise, i'm not sure how to differentiate it from other models. I don't think you'd want a lesser model... This one maps well. Seems like one that didn't map well would be useless. You have at least thirty days to return it, i always tell people afraid to get one or stuck in a loop, trying to compare them from information online... Just jump in since they are returnable. The first one I got was on sale for a hundred and something, and with complete trash, but I learned from it what's important to me

I have all hard floors, so yes.

I'm sorry.I thought this was in the thread where I already had. Shark matrix two and one. There are like twenty different varieties under that same heading. I do not know how to tell you how to tell the difference between the models. 😞

People on here complain about the kind I have but I think it is great for the price, and i'm unwilling to pay more. It's a shark matrix two and one. And my personal opinion, it does all the important things well. It maps well, so it doesn't miss spots, it has object avoidance, so it will gently bump into furniture or whatever, but not harm it. It doesn't mop as well as I could, but running it daily solves that problem. Running it daily, my floors are immaculate. I can walk around barefoot or in socks. I have all hard floors, so I can't say how it does have carpet. It empties itself in vacuum only mode, but that doesn't really do me any good because i'm always having it mop also. I don't mind changing out the mop pat myself, emptying the vacuum part of the two and one, and refilling the reservoir. I mean, sure if I were well off, i would get a 1200 one to save me from bending, over and dealing with all that, but for the price point I don't mind at all. I can't tell you how much I love it. I have a condition that makes mopping entirely too painful.

Yuck. I got a shark two in one for 298 on sale from five hundred. Worth every penny. It doesn't miss anywhere, and it has object avoidance

I have a far lower budget. I have a shark matrix two and one, there are many varieties, mine was at the five hundred mark starting off, on sale for $298. It empties itself when it's in vacuum only mode, which doesn't do me any good because i'm always having to mop since I also have LVP. I am happy with it, but I see a lot of complaints here about it. Since your budget is higher, you can get a better one!

AV2310EDUS with self empty

I have three floors of primarily hard flooring to clean. Sweeping has largely ceased to be a thing due to my robot vac. It does area rugs decently as well. It’s not heavy enough to really get down in the fibers so I pull out the real vacuum every couple weeks and do over the rugs.  I don’t use the damp cloth “wiping” feature because my upper floors are slippery and the robot spins in circles over its own tracks once it has wet the floor. In my basement, my tiles are kind of rough and I don’t think damp wiping would be effective so I don’t use that part either. When it’s time to unleash the robot vac, I do a quick run around for any large enough items or debris that it’s gonna choke on and remove them. I sweep dust and debris out of the corners where the robot wouldn’t fit out onto the main floor. Then I run the bot and come back later to empty. (Usually done before 90 mins) They make ones with vacuum bases that empty themselves. It’s convenient. If you get a vacuum base, get one with washable base filters instead of a vacuum bag that needs replacing after every fill. My friend bought an expensive one that vacuums and mops with spinning pads that self empties, self rinses, and dries its mop pads back on its base with heated water. He seems to like it. His house is all wood-look tile. Unfortunately his has vacuum bags as consumables. I also worry spinning action might swirl some missed grit around on any more delicate flooring. I’ve got a Shark IQ with the self-emptying base(vacuum only),  a secondhand Roomba 890(vacuum only, manual empty every use), and a Yeedi K700 in white and rose gold coloring(he’s pretty). Yeedi has the optional mop bin with the wipe cloth I don’t use. And is manually emptied every use. They make it simple to pass a mop myself after the robot does its run. 

I have had two of the shark iq ones that auto empty themselves for 5 years. Had to replace the batteries this year but they have been the longest lasting robot I’ve had. They’re only $130 or so refurbished on Amazon.
