Shark robot vacuums

• Does not matter
• Mostly hard floors (laminate, tiles, wood, PVC)
• A mix, with rugs or some carpet
• Mostly carpet

With carpet and rugs the robot must lift or drop its mop, or the rug gets wet.

• Does not matter
• Yes, pets
• Yes, long hair (no pets)
• No

Hair wraps around the brush. An anti-tangle brush prevents that; a camera that recognizes droppings prevents the other well-known accident.

• Does not matter

• As little as possible: it may empty itself
• Nothing: everything automatic, mop included

A station can empty the bin, wash and dry the mop and refill water. The more it does, the bigger and pricier it is.

• Does not matter
• Rarely
• Sometimes
• Often

A robot with a camera recognizes small items and drives around them. Without one it drives over them or gets stuck.

• Does not matter
• Only robots that fit under low furniture

It must also fit under low furniture (less than 3.5 in, or 9 cm, of room)
