Overview
Shark built this robot to map the home with LiDAR, then clean in a precise grid of multiple passes. When the bin is full it returns to a bagless base that empties it and holds the debris.
The self-emptying base and the recharge and resume feature cut down on hands-on work for larger floors. Pet owners get a self-cleaning brushroll, though the listing says nothing about bin size or the robot's weight.
Who it's for
Households with pet hair and large floor plans who want to schedule or voice start cleans are the match. Anyone who dislikes apps or needs weight and bin details before buying should read the listing closely.
Pros and cons
- LiDAR mapping and object avoidance
- Recharge and resume
- Alexa and Google Assistant control
- Robot weight not listed
- Dustbin size not stated
- Needs Wi-Fi for smart features
Performance notes
LiDAR scans the room and builds a map, which lets the robot clean in a grid rather than at random. When the battery runs low it returns to the dock, recharges and picks up where it stopped. The brushroll cleans itself to limit hair wrap, and the base seals debris behind HEPA filtration.
