"On hard floors it was as exceptional and never left a piece of cat litter in between the wood planks."
"The shark is an absolute beast for vacuuming ... It also will clog off the mesh before the robots hepa filter but this is due to how good it is at picking up liter and small particles."
"that thing was a beast on hard floors for vacuuming."

"I’ve seen on the camera the poor guy making multiple trips to self empty while in one room but it’s cut the hair buildup tenfold."
"Get one that has the auto empty dock. I empty mine every couple of days that way."

"One huge leg up for a Shark over Roomba is that the brush roller is similar to a vacuum (e.g. hard plastic), whereas the roomba is a plastic roller with a rubber cover that is DESTROYED by dog fur and you have to frequently replace."
"I run it 1-3 times and day, I’ve had it for 4 hours. ... Still works great"
"the only robot vacuum that didn’t clog or burn out was the self emptying shark one ... it’s been going three years strong."

"The big thing for me is the app and the map. Once it learns the house you can send it to just individual rooms to clean which is a lifesaver with small kids as rarely are all the floors clean at once. ... I send the robot and it’s amazing."
"I love the mapping function because I can keep it out of certain areas depending on how good I was at preparing the house."
"Sharks clean in a stripe or grid pattern whereas roomba is a seemingly random pattern that drives me nuts. ... also has an option for what they call matrix clean but it’s basically a grid, it’ll do stripes all one way then perpendicular to really get everything."

"Especially the mopping which has really exceeded my expectations."
"I think it works pretty good! ... I use the floor cleaner that goes with the machine and think it's super helpful. ... it def does a great job. ... I don't see any streaks when it's done. ... Yesss it works great!"
"Another pro is that it has advanced edge cleaning "No cleaning details missed—when vacuuming, EdgeDetect blasts air to push debris from edges into the robot’s cleaning path. While mopping, it extends the pad up to an inch to for edge-to-edge mop cleaning.""

"I felt like it was only surface cleaning the carpets ... We have 3 dogs (one with extremely long fur) and 2 cats; the fur gets imbedded into the carpets and it had a hard time picking it up."
"the long hair is too much and it clogs up the roller and we have to clear it before it can run again."
"Where they have never done a great job is on Oriental Rugs. ... The golden hair just kind of balls up or gets stuck on the edge. ... Ran it last night on a rug that hadn't been hit in a week or so and it actually looked worse when I woke up because so much hair was brought to the edges."

"it just stopped dispensing cleaner when mopping. ... A common problem with these. ... There is no fix for it. I’ve tried everything."
"The Sharks left behind pools of water in the tests, there is no way to turn it off. ... its leaves the floors worse (streaky and dirty) than if it had never mopped."

"the long hair is too much and it clogs up the roller and we have to clear it before it can run again."
"If it doesn't get run at least once a day, the roller brush will get clogged."
"The rollers do tend to get hair wrapped around them but once or twice a week"

"it ’s randomly stopped talking to the app (I’ve troubleshooted it as much as I can short of calling support), so now it’s lost half its functionality."
"Occasionally with an app update your robot will act like it ’s lost and doesn’t know the map and you have to remap the house which is annoying"
"the app is lacking many customization options that you can get with other apps. ... Lack of options like suction power, routines or order of room cleaning, auto empty frequency “30 minutes is too long for our house”, invisible walls, or threshold lines,etc."
