Shark - PowerDetect™ 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum and Mop with NeverTouch™ Base RV2820YE

I have tried several different ones and have had very good luck with Shark. It has done the best of all of them IMO. Cleans very well. I am now using the Power Detect 2in1 (30day) which vacs and mops. https://a.co/d/0ifgSYI

My solution has always been a Robot Vacuum which has been the best investment when it comes to dog hair maintenance. After 5 years of daily use my old one died last April and I bought [this Shark Vacuum and Mop](https://www.amazon.com/Shark-Self-Emptying-Self-Refilling-Technologies-RV2820YE/dp/B0DDYZ4VK4/). Yes, this unit is expensive but worth every penny. DO NOT PAY FULL PRICE. It goes on sale for under $500 on a regular basis. I have it vacuum the whole main floor every day and mop every three days. The floors always look perfect. They claim up to 30 days without emptying the bin but I must empty it every week at a minimum. Which is completely fine by me. Just be sure to clean and replace the filter regularly. It isn't hard and they are cheap. I am not 100% sure what all the poor reviews are for because I have had nothing but a great experience with this thing. Again, worth every penny.

I LOVE my Shark Ninja. It sweeps and mops. I am disabled and cannot sweep and mop anymore. We used to live in a 850 sq. ft. house and just purchased a brand new 1386 sq ft home. This thing is a life safer for me!

I don't have pets. I have this model: [https://tinyurl.com/462nns45](https://tinyurl.com/462nns45)

We have the Roomba j7+ We did a fair amount of research before getting it and watched YT videos comparing all the different makes and models and this was highly rated for pet hair. It’s pretty good - but like others have said you do have to spend time cleaning the hair out of the wheels which is an annoying and dirty job and also I find that I don’t run it very often because the sound makes my dog bark so I have to only run it when the dog isn’t in the house, which isn’t that often (of course, I could try to get the dog used to it, but I haven’t taken the time to do that) As an alternative to a robot we also recently bought the Shark Auto Detect and we are loving it! It’s cordless and really lightweight. It’s so easy to maneuver picks up tons of hair and has really good rollers that don’t get stuck on hair. I actually was looking forward to vacuuming today, which is crazy. I never thought I would say that!

My home is a mix of hard floors and rugs. Last week, on a whim, I got the Shark PowerDetect 2in1 (vac and mop) from Amazon for £477. I was impressed with the cleaning power of it but had to send it back because I was unable to get it to clean under my sofa or up to the kickboards in my kitchen. I would have kept it if it wasn’t for that. Today I got a Dreame X40 Ultra Complete for £699 as I did my research this time and have found it to be a lot better suited to me and totally covered what was missing from the Shark.

I just bought it, and i will either be returning or exchanging it. I do find the Shark App quite frustrating. I know you have experience with it, but it bugs out and is super slow a lot of times. Also, the live navigation is not always working like it's supposed to while it's cleaning. Only happened once in a span of like a minute. I know my friend is able to see what and where his vacuum is at while he's at work to check its progress. Unfortunately, that's not working for me. The pad plate removes itself way too easily. I couldn't find it at first after it mapped out my place, but it turned out it was completely stuck on the home base. As per the manual, I had the robot vacuum slide back up to reattach itself, but it wouldn't. It was super stuck on the home base. I tried so many times to reattach, like instructed. I ended up having to *gently* remove it from the home base. Even then, if I had to use the mopping function, I would have to manually put the water and cleaning solution in ( I haven't tried it yet). Because the pad plate won't attach, the mopping solution won't put itself into the robot vacuum from the home base whatsoever. Then, if you do reattach the pad plate, you would have to put it back on the home base, and you're back at the same problem where the pad plate is detached. To have to manually put the solution into the vacuum is not the convenience that it advertises it for 😭 I have to say the mapping feature, creating the rooms, labeling rooms, vacuuming, and scheduling vacuum only cleans throughout the week is super nice. I unfortunately can't schedule the vacuum and mop cleans because of the previously explained issues. I also enjoy choosing select rooms to clean at a time. But those problems i listed unfortunately outweigh its benefits. I also wish you had more customization in the app. Like choose and schedule how often to clean certain rooms, etc, like other models. It's not available in this one.

Changes its own water. Dries its pad. And even lifts up the mop pad as it goes across rugs and carpets. 10 out of 10 highly recommend. Shark Power Detect 2 in 1

Shark AV2820S. We had the unit that mopped. This robot is extremely good at vacuuming hard floors and removing cat litter from grout lines. One of our cats was bad at kicking out litter and this robot never failed to vacuum it up.

Shark powerdetect was great at vacuuming. They make a vacuum only model. The narwal pro also looks promising.

Mopping most likely not. Vacuuming we enjoyed our shark powerdetect(can’t state enough how surprised I was with its hard floor performance) and our current Dyson visnav also does an exceptional job.

My shark powerdetect could get over our large double threshold that was taller than this. 90% of the time it worked.

We’ve been very happy with our Dyson. The only big issue we had was it not liking metal floor registers for the ac/heat. We replaced them with wood ones and it’s been flawless in that aspect since. The amount of hair it removes from the rugs/carpets is extremely good; we have 3 dogs and 2 cats. I should also mention that our shark powerdetect robot was also very good at removing dust/dirt from the rugs/carpets but slightly lacking in hair removal. Might be worth looking into as well.

Our shark powerdetect is amazingly good at vacuuming cat litter.

Mine is a vacuum-only Shark Powerdetect. In the 4 months I've had it it has only gotten stuck once, and that was on a very challenging piece of furniture. It hasn't gotten stuck other than that one time, and I run it daily. We do keep a very tidy apartment, so other folks might have more challenges. On sale, I got mine for $350. Less than 1/3 the cost of the Matic.

My Shark is just over one year old out of warranty. I was very happy with it but it just stopped dispensing cleaner when mopping. A common problem with these. There is no fix for it. I’ve tried everything.
