Shark ION Robot Vacuum for Carpet AV751 Wi-Fi Connected, 120min Runtime, Works with Alexa, Black

We had an old Eufy robot vacuum that just wasn't worth the hassle of using. Our dogs hated the old vacuum and would chase it around, flip it down stairways, etc. It was time to replace it. I purchased a new Eufy self emptying model and hated it after one use. It got stuck in sooooo many places! Plus it had these tiny little bags that it emptied into that would require me to spend a fortune on replacement bags. I returned it and began researching Shark robot vacuums. I ordered this and was in awe of how well it worked! It mapped out our home and let me set up "no go" areas. I have this run every morning and it covers a large area, returns to the base to recharge and then resumes cleaning. It does a really nice job and has cut down on the time needed to run a manual vacuum. With two dogs and a busy household it gets a workout every day! It would not hold 60 days of debris for our household due to the dog hair. But that is not a big deal. I typically empty the canister every two to three weeks even though it isn't full. It goes over area rugs like a champ! There are three floor vents that it will occasionally get stuck on if it hits them at the right angle...but that only happens about every other week.... and only on one of the three. Getting stuck once out of 14 runs isn't too bad. Especially when our old Eufy would get stuck multiple times in one run.The cons have been that recently I will get an error saying the bin is not installed correctly...but it is and the vacuum continues to run and works just fine. It's annoying that the app sends the notification while it is in fact working fine. The other complaint is about the app as well. If the vacuum does get stuck the app will not show where it is. You must activate the beeper on it to locate the vacuum. Not a big deal, unless of course the battery has died and it is unable to beep. Fortunately, we are aware of the three possible spots that it gets hung up and can check those if we are unable to locate it by sound. I do think the battery could last longer. It runs for about 45 minutes on normal power before it needs to return to recharge.Besides its cleaning ability the next best thing...our dogs completely ignore this vacuum! I don't know if the older one made a sound that only they could hear and find annoying or what. But they have paid zero attention to this since its first run!

Let me start this by saying I bought this product on my own and DID NOT receive it for free so this is an honest review from someone who actually spent the money on this product.I have an Australian Shepherd who blows his coat twice a year (aka sheds all day, everyday all day). If you don’t keep up with the hair... it’s like the wild wild west with tumbleweeds just floating across my carpet and hardwood floors.I have been looking into buying a robot vacuum for a while to help with maintenance vacuuming in between vacuuming with my shark upright duo clean (which is my second shark vacuum and it is absolutely amazing). I was looking at Roombas for a very long time but was hesitant as the price was so expensive and the lesser models I thought were not going to do a good job so I was looking to spend almost $1000 for the 900 model and almost pulled the trigger. Then I came across this shark ion robot vacuum by chance when it came out a week or month or so ago I believe. I waited to see some of the reviews on here and then went ahead and purchased it and boy am I glad I did! It has been well worth the $350 I paid. I can’t say I’ve ever owned a rumor but my parents have and comparing their experience and the experience as I have read through several reviews I believe that this vacuum meets up to the same standards at a reasonable price.It does a wonderful job of picking up the dog hair, I was actually surprised of how much it actually picks up. Almost as much as my Shark upright. It also doesn’t really good job of picking up the find debris such as dust, dirt and sand. Also does a great job on larger debris such as dog food, leaves, grass, bark and other things that get tracked in from the bottom of shoes. I have used my upright directly after a robot cleaning just to see how much more I would get up and honestly I was surprised that it was minimal hair and debris and I mainly think it is because the vacuum can’t obviously get into every, nook, crany and tight corners.I have used the app and scheduled timer and so far it works great. I love that you can start it and stop it away from home. I love that you also get alerts on exactly what is going on and what is wrong with the robot vacuum when it’s not working. The only problem I’ve had is that it was getting stuck under a shelf and I easily fixed this problem with the magnetic tape that came with this product. It bumps into the magnetic tape and keeps on doing it’s job. I like that it has a low profile clearance though so it can go under my bed and other pieces of furniture that have a higher clearance where a lot of dust and hair or not reachable with an upright vacuum. I do pick up the dogs toys and chewys to make sure it does not get stuck on them.It does take a while to find it’s charger when running out of battery but it is just a robot and it makes sure it holds enough battery so it can do so. I’m pretty happy with the battery life. I live in a one bedroom, one bathroom apartment with a walk in closet, decent size kitchen and living room/dining room area. It is approximatley +900 ft.² and can clean all of it in one charge.Overall, I am very happy with my purchase. I would recommend this to any family or friends and also to you. I would like to finish this review by saying it will not replace your upright vacuum but is a wonderful tool for maintenance vacuuming especially for someone with OCD like myself. I will update this review if I have any problems in the future. Thank you Shark for another well made product at a reasonable price!
