"I run it once a day, and mop a couple times a week. ... In fact, my wet/dry floor vacuum just died so its pulling even more work right now as it's the only real mop I now have, other than a Swiffer."
"My GOD am I glad I did. I had no idea how much I had been missing! ... We have 2 dogs and a cat, and live more rural. That means dirty paws folks, and a lot of them. The mopping and vacuuming has been no short of amazeballs. Not amazing. Amazeballs."
"The current champ of perfectly sparkling clean floors. ... Have 5 dogs tracking in dirt all day? Run this mop and go eat off the floor. That's how clean it is. ... Step aside spinny & vibration mops, this constantly clean roller mop is the champ. ... The mopping ability is light-years ahead of the Curv. ... The continously cleaning of fresh water is where is truly unique. ... You will be delighted and shocked on how amazing this E28 is. Its truly incomparable to any roborock. Get ready to start eating off your floors 😁😉"

"The roborock I have kicked and smashed with my foot so many times out of anger when it doesn't collaborate, and still he rocks 4-5 yrs later and no broken parts"
"has withstood the last week of winds over 70 freezing kph."
"I've used it daily for at least 10 years now, probably closer to 15 and apart from the fact you need to clean it periodically, it's still works like brand new."

"On hard floors it was as exceptional and never left a piece of cat litter in between the wood planks."
"Vacuuming it was extremely good ... the robot vacuums really good, I can’t stress that enough."

"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."
"splurge for the self emptying because if you have to empty it every time you're less likely to use it. We only have to empty ours like once a month and I have a 14mo and a 3yo who drop crumbs everywhere. ... we have a Shark with a large self emptying bin and that thing is great for the price point."
"Get one that has the auto empty dock. I empty mine every couple of days that way."

"made me realize how shitty the Shark was. ... primarily it cleans way better"
"Of these, the worst mopping will be the Q5 and Q8 robots, which just have stationary pads attached to the back."
"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."

"if I had to use the mopping function, I would have to manually put the water and cleaning solution in ... Because the pad plate won't attach, the mopping solution won't put itself into the robot vacuum from the home base whatsoever. ... To have to manually put the solution into the vacuum is not the convenience that it advertises it for 😭"
"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."
"it just stopped dispensing cleaner when mopping. ... A common problem with these. ... There is no fix for it. I’ve tried everything."

"If it doesn't get run at least once a day, the roller brush will get clogged."

"app needs a lot of work and it tends to forget your map settings after a while for some reason. ... The app and settings are very barebones."
"Also the app is frustrating becuse it logs you out constantly, so everytime you want to use it, you need to log back in."
"Just know the app is buggy and has little options for the robot"

Not BIFL, but our Shark (get the self emptying base!) has withstood 4 cats, a long haired dog, 3 adults, a toddler, and a long haired teenager for 4 years and still doing well. I was incredibly disappointed in the original roomba I tried. If you do buy a shark buy directly from them. Their customer service is phenomenal. I bought one through a home improvement store as it was on sale. It had a charging issue within 12 months and when I called Shark I was told that since I hadn’t bought from them they couldn’t cover the full replacement even under warranty. BUT if I paid shipping they would send me a new one - $34 later I had a new one on the way. Bonus points as I was able to fix the original and had two robot vacs for the price of 1+ shipping.
r/BuyItForLife • Robot vacuum recommendation? ->I have a dog that never stops shedding. And I just got two cats. I have the Shark robot vacuum that self empties. I love it. I still vacuum every couple of days and get plenty of fur and dirt but I know it picks up its fair share because I empty the reservoir once every week or so and there is plenty in there. I can tell if it doesn’t run for a couple days because I will notice the floors not being as clean. I typically just have it run every day while I’m at work on a timer so I come home to fresh carpet lines. It’s worth spending a little more on these robot vacuums because the self emptying is huge, especially if you have square footage to cover. But it is also so much smarter than the older cheaper brand I had that would constantly get stuck and just bounce around the rooms willy-nilly. This one maps it out and covers all the floor space efficiently.
r/CleaningTips • I'm about to check myself in a mental institution ->yes. we have three shibas and *had* two automatic vaccums until one of them succumbed from dog hair and the other one is literally on its last leg. highly recommend, as well as the shark vac/mop!
r/dogs • Is a Roomba-like vacuum worth it for dogs? I need to be de-influenced for my wallets sake ->I have the Shark that empties itself. Only does one floor and mixed hard wood and rugs. Empties itself twice while cleaning and does a pretty good job.
r/husky • Robot Vacuums? ->Not the original commenter, but I had a cheap no name one and two sharks. Those three each lived about 18 months. I do use them heavily (at least 3x a week) but love them so much. I wouldn’t pay more than $300 for one that vacuums and mops with a station that cleans it. But that seems to be the sweet spot for me. Right now I have a shark and a yeedi. The yeedi app often stops working but the cleaning itself is fine.
r/BuyItForLife • Little luxuries or upgrades that you made this year that makes your everyday better? ->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.
r/RobotVacuums • The Verge Review: The Matic robot vacuum is smarter, quieter, and gets the job done ->Well it's definitely not the BEST robot vacuum, because I'm a little on the cheap side and I don't have to have the best thing, but I really like my shark vacuum because they have a patented "lint roller" that keeps pet hair and string from getting tangled or building up on the roller. It's the lidar kind with the self empty base. The self empty base is a must have imo. Running this daily keeps the pet hair tumbleweeds from taking over the house. Doesn't do great on carpet though.
r/homemaking • The best robot vacuum on the market right now that you swear by? ->I'm so confused by this new system. Like the Shark Never touch Pro. 116 stain 3.1 3.1 3.1 water (NEGATIVE)50?? for water test? And a total score of like 133.3 average? I know I failed math but.....
r/RobotVacuums • I Was Wrong About Robot Vacuum Mops and What I'm Doing About It ->I have a Shark with a base that it self empties into. Mine is scheduled to run three times a week and I empty the base once a week. I’ve got two cats, hardwood, and a lot of dust. You’d probably have to empty the base multiple times a week with two shepherds. Honestly I love my Shark. It saved me so much anxiety and time because I was constantly fighting to make my floors feel clean. Now I just have to spot clean and vacuum the corners where the robot can’t reach.
r/CleaningTips • Robot vacuum VS dog hair… battle to the death 💀 ->Personally, I like Shark brand the best because once you buy it, that's it. Every other brand, you have to buy replacement bags for the debris. So, the cost keeps going up, while also creating more waste. Shark's, you just empty the bin. And now that Shark has the Nevertouch Pro, it does all the same functions as any other top of the line robot vacuum.
r/Appliances • What do you think are the best robot vacuums available now? Do they work better than traditional cleaning methods? ->I'm not too worried. Every brand experiences enough problems that someone won't buy it ever again, meanwhile there are hundreds of thousands with no issues. Just like any other product really.
