Title: LOVE this vacuum - Exceeded my expectations!
Review: While relatives have had them for years, this is MY first robot vacuum. In my opinion, this is the BEST budget vacuum at the price point. I purchased one on sale for $139. It was super easy to get started and watch it go with AMAZING results in the dustbin! Okay, so it was purchased to use at my parents' house, but I HAD to test it, right? 🙂 Now, it worked so well, I immediately ordered 2 more (taking advantage of the $ale) and have 2 at my parents' house and one at my own. I use the schedule feature in the app to run mine every day at 9am. It starts up perfectly. With a Basset hound, it does an amazing job of keeping the house livable in between my own vacuum/mop jobs. I'm a firm believer in doing a deep clean with a larger vacuum, but with this running in between, my house is HUGELY improved. To top it off, running it at my parents' house couldn't be easier with the app. I can start and stop them on MY app, and all they have to do is empty the dust bins. I've been running them for a little over a month now, and am very happy with the results.PROS: -Runs much longer than predicted, even on standard power. -Easy to empty dustbin. -It has an Air filter (and despite others saying you have to remove screws to get to it, you don't. The outer mesh is fixed in place with a screw, but the filter cartridge slips out the side). -You can "Set it and forget it" for the most part if you use scheduling. -Compared to a standard vacuum, this baby is VERY quiet. That isn't to say it doesn't make any noise (seriously, it has suction and airflow... it's GONNA make noise). -If you put it in ECO mode, it is even quieter, but regardless of the mode, my basset doesn't run from it. :)CONS: All 3 of the models have a 'different' sound when running. Seriously, they each sound completely different and have different noise levels, which makes me wonder. Next, she -her name is Suzie- completely ignores the boundary strips I purchased to use. (And no, I did NOT place it under anything. I even tested by laying it face up straight across the edge of the carpet... on top. NOPE, she rolls right over it -_- ... and the 2nd one I cut to fit the base of a pole lamp that she kept getting stuck half on/off of. Since it was metal, the strip just magnetically attached to the round base side... NOPE, she still bangs into it. Although she hasn't hopped up onto it anymore so... you be the judge)TIPS: 1st-If you get it on sale, go ahead and add the warranty coverage. I did. In my opinion, a CYA is always a good thing. It gives me piece of mind that if one of them turns out to be a lemon (all things have them, even vehicles) I'm covered. The most I'd have to pay is shipping and that is NOTHING compared to purchasing a new one. Besides, as I said above, they each have a unique motor sound, and I feel better knowing that if there is anything that would take away from the motor life involved, I'll get a repair or a replacement. 2nd-take the time to look at the undercarriage and inspect the roller. You never know what could potentially get wound onto that brush roll, and it's super easy to pop it out and clean it off (if you've ever had a large vacuum, you should already know to do this as regular maintenance). Keep in mind that the harder that brush roll has to work, the more pull it puts on the Motor. Stressing that little thing will potentially take away from its life of service.Final Thoughts? I love it and would recommend it to anybody and everybody. And if it's on sale it is HUGE bang for your buck$!** I gave all 5 stars except the 4 on Deep Cleaning ONLY because of my own beliefs that you need to get out the big vacuum at least once a month (depending on your environment maybe a little more often).

Title: This works great!
Review: We have a 3 bed, 2.5 bath 2 story town house. Our home has 4 people and 1 cat. We have had this 12 days and have used it about every other day.This works great! Our downstairs is hardwood and our upstairs is carpet. It does great on both floors. Couple of issues it does have. I have a standing ott light in the living room for sewing, it does try to climb up the stand and get stuck, same with our stand-up fan. Our downstairs is a hallway, living room, kitchen dining and half bath. it does a great job sweeping there, I do pick up the cat toys before turning it on.When we want it to vac the upstairs, we move the base upstairs and only have the doors open for the rooms we want it to clean. (Upstairs we have 3 beds, a bath and laundry room) But it picked up plenty of cat hair in our carpet that we didn't know was there, and we have a short-hair cat. Our upstairs bath has a rug with long fibers, so I don't let it go in that room either. But it does great in the larger master bath that has no rug.I have the Shark app and Alexa. I usually don't use the app or Alexa to turn it on as I want to make sure my daughter has picked up her legos and that the main bathroom door is closed. For downstairs I pick up the cat toys and the breakfast bar stools. However, it does get under our entertainment center just fine and it navigates any cords on the floor without a problem. Additionally, I have a sewing space in our dining room and it gets little threads easily. It has a large container to collect the dust, but not as large as a traditional vac. However, it is easier to vacuum more often with this as it does it on its own, so as you use it more often, hopefully it has less to pick up. The vacuuming process is longer with this than a traditional vac, but that is okay, I don't have to be with it all the time like I do with a traditional vac. When I want it to clean a different floor I just take it and its base upstairs, plug in the base and press the button. I make sure that notifications are turned on in the Shark app and it will notify me if it has gotten stuck. Although I have it linked to Alexa and I use Alexa often and have several Alexas in several rooms, Alexa never gives me notifications on this. But this isn't something that bothers me, just an fyi if that is important to you.Couple of things. I have 5 children and 4 are grown (my 23 year old and 8 year old live with me) I don't know if I would have used this as much when I had small children and lots of toys around. Although it would have vac'd around them, I don't think it would have done as thorough of a job. I also like to be home when it is running, so I can keep an eye on it in case it gets stuck. It doesn't get stuck often, but I wouldn't want to come home and find it was stuck and hadn't done what I expected of it, but that is my personal preference.Overall, I love this thing. I think it does a great job and is easy to use. I would recommend this.

Review: Ya habÃa probado este producto en USA y me encanto, por lo que intente probar en Mexico, pero no existe la aplicación aquà por lo que la funcionalidad está muy limitada, creo que optaré por otra marca que si cuente con la aplicación en Mexico para mis próximas compras

Review: Muy buen producto si se utiliza en los lugares adecuados. Lo recomiendo ampliamente para pisos, areas con alfombras de pelo corto y areas despejadas y no muy amplias. RecomendarÃa un robot con sistema mas avanzado de navegación para areas mas extensas o con muchos cuartos.Nota: no funciona con alexa México, aunque utiliza su propia app y eso es suficiente

Review: This vacuum works well. It does not map so it sometimes does miss some areas, but overall does a good job. We have a husky & this has no problem controlling the hair! My only negative is when it goes over our rug, it drops some of the dirt it collected onto the rug and does not pick up the hair well. I normally have to go back over with my hand held vacuum to clean the rug.

Review: Hola soy de México1. Solucion para usar la app en mexicoEn Google navegador poner app shark clean y buscar, en una de las opciones puedes bajar a travez del market aptoide. Aptoide es como una google storeEs necesario instalar aptoide y luego shark cleanAl instalar la app solo esta en ingles. Pero asi puedes programar y conectar la app via remota.2. Para sincronizar con la app por primera vez es necesario cargar completamente la aspiradora sino no se conecta.3. La aspiradora aunque no tiene mapeo es excelente no muy ruidosa y nomse como pero abarca toda la casa y funciona alrededor de 2 horas todos los dias.4. En resumen buena aspiradora
