Shark PowerDetect 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum & Mop, White, AV2800ZE

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).

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Shark PowerDetect 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum & Mop Review! 🦈✨ I have to give this machine 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My Shark PowerDetect 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum & Mop has been doing an AMAZING job keeping my floors clean, and I absolutely love the convenience of having both vacuuming and mopping in one machine! 🙌🧹✨ One of the things I appreciate most is how helpful it can be for anyone with physical limitations or difficulty with bending, twisting, or repetitive movements. ❤️ There’s no need to constantly twist, wring out a traditional mop, bend over, or make those awkward motions that can be hard on your body. And honestly, having the robot do the mopping means less worry about walking across a freshly wet floor and potentially slipping or falling. 🙏 I am, however, still troubleshooting one little issue—getting the water to fill the reservoir after a simple cleaning. 💦🤔 I even turned to YouTube to see what I might be missing… and let’s just say, after watching a few videos, I realized the problem was 100% operator error! 😂😂 Yep… sometimes the machine isn't the problem—the person pushing the buttons is! 🤣🙋‍♀️ Overall, I LOVE my Shark and would definitely recommend it! ❤️ If you’re looking for a smart little helper to keep up with everyday messes—especially if traditional vacuuming and mopping can be physically challenging—this little machine is definitely worth considering! 5 stars for the machine… and maybe 3 stars for the operator until I get the water situation figured out! 😂⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #SharkPowerDetect #SharkRobotVacuum #RobotVacuum #RobotMop #SharkVacuum #HomeCleaning #CleaningMadeEasy #Accessibility #PhysicalLimitations #IndependentLiving #OperatorError #YouTubeHelp #FiveStarReview

Okay, so my history of seeking out robot vacuums is a long one. Back when I was in college and still lived with my parents, robot vacuums were just starting to come out. My mom had a back injury and I'm disabled - I thought that if we got one of these things it would be a lot easier to keep the house clean. I looked into it, but there was only one big brand at the time, and I had no point of reference for how well they worked since they were such a new thing. They were far too expensive for me to take that chance. Fast forward about 15 years to 2020. At this point it is a well-established technology. I've looked at countless different models over the years, and the price has gone down a lot, but it never seemed like the right time until now. One of the rooms in my current apartment has low pile carpet so I had been looking into these more heavily, as vacuuming every day was becoming tedious. I was lucky to find this Shark on sale on Amazon and it has been great, apart from the app, which is useless. The vacuum itself works wonderfully. It does a great job of cleaning the carpet, which is what I primarily use it for. The carpet always looks so good after I run the Shark. I clean the device out about every other day and I could see it picks up all the dust, hair and particles. I've used it in the other rooms in the apartment with flooring that is laminate as well and it does a good job also. I have no complaints as far as cleaning capability. Cleaning the device out is easy. The pieces were designed to be easily removed and reattached and I have had no problems doing that so far. I'm glad that it’s so simple. I also like that it is fairly quiet. This is huge because I live in an apartment building and noise is a big concern. There was one instance where I did not charge it for like 2 days and the battery didn't die within that span. I was pleasantly surprised. The device is capable of cleaning multiple rooms without losing charge. My apartment is fairly big and there has never been a time it wasn't able to handle it. It has a good battery life. The only downside is that the app is useless. It will not connect no matter what I do. This is not a huge issue for me because, as I have said, the vacuum by itself works well, but it I have noticed some small blind spots, so it would be nice to be able to draw the rooms to minimize that. Overall, I am happy with the device and consider it a good value for what I paid.

First impressions: I love this machine. Durability, reliability and battery life are as of yet unknown. But for what I’ve seen thus far, this machine is what we were looking for. You give the machine a name when you set it up. I named it Dirty Harry. Pros: The mapping function of the rooms to be cleaned is very precise. I love how I can send the vacuum, to a specific room or all of them. The cleaning is thorough. If the battery runs low it will return to the dock for a charge, then go finish the job. We have two cats and I’m amazed how much more hair it seems to find than I did with the floor vacuum. We have floor registers and it breezes right over them. Bathroom rugs that are kind of shaggy are no problem. It doesn’t roll them up or get stuck on them. The self cleaning function works great. I’ve run the upright vacuum after Harry finishes just to check. The light on the floor vac will show everything if it’s dirty. The floors are clean! Cons: You can only schedule one daily cleaning. I have ours scheduled to run at 7:00 a.m. I wanted to have a second scheduled vacuum for 7:00 p.m. It’s easy enough to send the vacuum, Dirty Harry, on his way with the app manually. Like so many WiFi enabled devices these days, getting Harry to connect took 3-4 attempts. Since then all is well.

UPDATE: my initial review was 5 stars and opinion of this robot was quite high. However, after 4 months of ownership, I’ve started to have nothing but problems with this unit. The clear water containers used to hold the mop water have serious quality control issues. I’ve had the base mop reservoir replaced under warranty due to random cracks that formed in the plastic on their own, constantly leaking water into the base. Soon after, the robot kept giving error after error, not running as expected, always giving an error stating an issue with the flap (error number 9), and again leaking mop water from the robot. After an inspection, I found more of these cracks in the clear plastic on the mop reservoir for the vacuum itself, one of which actually caused an entire screw mount to completely break off causing the flap to not function — so this component also got replaced under warranty. Now just a couple weeks since my last base reservoir was replaced under warranty, I have cracks yet again forming in the plastic. I’m not doing anything crazy here. I have hardwood floors. I replace the water when it runs out. Mops twice per week, vacuums once per day. Nothing out of the ordinary at all. There’s a serious quality issue with whatever plastic materials Shark is using for the clear components. And here’s the best part — now that I’ve had to call numerous times for this very obvious defect, Shark customer support has told me THESE PARTS ARE NOT UNDER WARRANTY. WHAT?! Apparently they only cover the “base” and “robot” itself. Nothing for these water tanks. So I guess they think these are consumables? Either that or Shark is very aware that these components are junk and are just trying to charge their customers for them at this point to recoup their costs. If you push back on them, they’ll eventually offer a free part, suggesting a goodwill effort, but still make you pay for shipping. Honestly insane. I purchased the product. I expect the product to function. I should not have to bear the burden of any additional expense because of defective parts. I’ve had to escalate this issue through Shark’s support to their head offices. I think they’ve got an issue leading all the way back to their manufacturers. Until this is clearly resolved and addressed, I cannot recommend this product to anyone. ORIGINAL REVIEW: Performance The vacuum and mop functions work exceptionally well, especially in a home with a dog. Running the vacuum daily and the mop every three days keeps my floors nearly spotless. It handles 90% of the floor cleaning effectively, leaving only 10% of edge and baseboard areas for occasional manual cleaning. Convenience The self-emptying vacuum and self-cleaning mop make it a “set and forget” device. During a full clean, it typically returns to the base once to empty dust and refill water. Navigation is excellent—it finds its way back home without issues. My 1,500 sq ft main floor uses just over 50% of its charge for a complete vacuum and mop. Obstacle Handling The robot handles most obstacles with ease and navigates tight areas efficiently. I’ve only had to rescue it once when it picked up a clothes hanger left on the floor. Mopping Efficiency The mop pad agitates back and forth for a thorough clean. The spot-cleaning mode is particularly impressive, as the bot moves incrementally and spins to ensure deep cleaning in the designated area. App and Voice Control The app communication can be slow and unresponsive. Once an action starts (e.g., spot cleaning), you’re locked into the sequence until it finishes. This can be frustrating if you make a mistake, like selecting the wrong room or cleaning mode, since there’s no way to interrupt or override the command mid-process. Alexa integration is disappointing—most commands are met with confusion or failure to execute. Noise Level The vacuum itself is quiet, but the base is quite loud during the self-emptying and pad-cleaning process. You will not want this running while you sleep because the self empty is going to keep you up once the vacuum gets back to base. Maintenance Switching out the mop water and emptying the dust bins is simple and only needs to be done every other week. Summary Overall, this Shark robot vacuum mop cleaner excels at automating daily chores, though the app and voice control could use significant improvement. If I could knock the review down a half point for this, I would. However, its performance and convenience outweigh the minor drawbacks, making it a worthwhile addition to any home and warranting a 5 star review. Easily one of the best purchases I’ve made in a long time.

I purposely did not write a review for this immediately after receiving it. I think those reviews really do not tell you the full picture because everyone is excited and then they rant and rave about it, not knowing that it should run through its paces beforehand. As of today, it’s been approximately nine months since I’ve had this machine. In fact-it is running right now as we speak. So, if you were expecting this machine to clean everything in your house, well, it won’t. However, if you put it at the setting of an average clean, it will pick up the dust and everything else in between in the common traveled areas. If you place it on matrix clean, you will run the battery down and it will take a couple of sessions in order for it to clean your entire place based on the square footage of your home. One recommendation is to make sure every week you dump out the container or the collecting bin. Also, when you do, make sure you inspect what it has picked up when dumping!!! I had found that it my wife’s missing earring, a few dimes and a missing screw that I was looking for for my key fob to the car. So make sure you are looking to see What the vacuum shot into its collecting bin. Also, in regards to hair, it will pick that up however, make sure you have a fine or small screwdriver available. The hair tends to bind up the bristle wheel that is next to its traction. If there’s any long hair, or dog hair or what not it will end up collecting there and bind up the Pick up Wheel or spindle. You will have to unscrew two small screws and gently take it apart and get that tangled weave of hair out of there. There is a ball of it binding the wheel to make it free flowing. What will happen is over time, it will not spin as well, it will drain the battery because it had to work harder when working, and then you will get errors stating that the wheel is caught up somehow. It is because of that reason you need to make sure that you do a monthly maintenance check on this vacuum. It’s just like any other robot vacuum / it can only do so much as it’s designed for. Constant preventative maintenance insures that your robot vacuum will operate properly like brand new. As in with bumping into things and so forth, it does have some hiccups where it cannot find the collection bin. You may want to make sure that the Wi-Fi is working properly in your house and also make sure that the base unit is plugged in properly. I’ve already had that happen to me a couple times because the vacuum Will sometimes pull out the cord when vacuuming around it- the cord is on the floor and then it has problems finding the charging base even when it’s right next to it….just a suggestion… The app is very friendly to use, and you can set your zones, so customization is really user-friendly- once again. Also, this machine tends to find its way quite easily through all the areas corners, nooks and crannies. It operates in the dark because of its motion sensor, and Vacuums our entire floor in one charge based on its settings. 1750 Sq feet. It notices stairs, and also one feature I do like is that it does adjust to objects that are either stationary or if you’re standing in the way. Meaning, if you’re standing in the vacuum comes up to you it will work around you. It will then turn around to do the next pass. If it sees that that object is not there, it will come back And vacuum the spot where you were standing. That’s a very cool feature in my opinion. I also noticed that it does not miss or uncover typical open areas. They are very uniform when this robot is vacuuming those spaces, almost like a golf course lawn pattern. Once again: nice job in uniformity. If you are low on charge, the vacuum will stop, find the charging unit, recharge, and come back to the same exact spot and continue vacuuming until the whole (day task) is completed… Keep in mind, this won’t do everything, but it does keep the dust down. In tight corners, this will not be able to reach due to its circular design. The main key is to perform monthly maintenance on this vacuum if you are running this one to four times a week. If you maintain that which is very simple, approx 5-10 min of time, you’ll be very pleased with this shark vacuum. I just bought another one for our downstairs because I am that impressed. Additionally, I purchased two extra batteries to make sure that this model is discontinued. I have enough prolonged extended time for this machine to keep going. This is a great investment. Good luck!

After a lot of research, I purchased this vacuum a year and a half ago. I was primarily looking for a self emptying robotic vacuum that would pick up lots of long dog hair. I loved this vacuum until this weekend when one of the side brush motor’s apparently burned out rendering the entire vacuum useless. The vacuum will not move an inch without shutting down and saying that the side brush is stuck and to clear the obstacle. Checked both side brushes numerous times and Nope! no obstacle, not even a Speck or strand of hair. When we were actually able to get the vacuum to move a short distance it was apparent the left brush was not moving. We took everything apart and there is absolutely no obstruction, so the only thing we can assume is the motor has given up. It’s a shame that the design of this “AI” vacuum renders the entire vacuum useless simply because one side brush isn’t working. The vacuum will not work at all until you clear the error message. Ergo my problem! I will say it did a terrific job of picking up dog hair (I have a golden retriever) and the wall unit is very powerful and empties the vacuum out very well. We do ensure that we clean out the dust bin (in the wall unit weekly) and clean the filters (both wall unit and the vacuum) weekly as well. We cleaned the roller brush etc on the vacuum every few days because we use the vacuum daily. We have only wood floors with some small throw rugs and the vacuum gets most of the house done before needing to go back and recharge. ~2,000 sqFt house. Other than this issue, it’s a terrific vacuum. I’m very disappointed in this vacuum not lasting longer and becoming completely unusable due to one side brush issue. If it looked like I could replace the side brush motor assembly I would gladly do so, but the design doesn’t look like this would be an easy consumer fix. Now my dilemma is what to buy to replace it?? I’m thinking of buying another if the same but quite leery of the same thing happening all over again. I understand a vacuum doesn’t last forever, but for $450 it should last more than a year and a half!

So I actually bought this in July of 2022 but did not open the box however until January 2026...yeah I know stupid on my part! We were remodeling and replacing carpet to hardwood floors so I thought this was a good idea, we were not quite finished so I left it in the box and quite frankly forgot about it, again I know stupid on my part! I am seriously kicking myself in the butt for not using it sooner! I have been using Minny everyday since the end of January and what a game changer she is! We have 2 short haired, hound mix dogs and 2 short haired cats and she seems to get their hair, our hair and ALL the dust bunnies! I do have to say with the XL cup, I still have to empty it every other day but I have not really swept in 3 months, that used to be an everyday job! Unless something big gets tracked in of course! I have had no issues with the app or wifi connection and the house mapping is spot on! My only issue is in the last few days is an error needing to clean out debris. I simply can't find anything wrong and I do empty out her internal cup once a week due to hair build up! Today I pulled her apart because clearly there is something wrong and I found so much hair wrapped around the roller internally that you would not see just by turning her over and looking! I took some pliers and pulled it out and used the air compressor to give her and her filters both on her and in her docking station a good cleaning and shes now good as new! I added pictures so you can see where I'm talking and yes that's before cleaning her which took about 45 minutes total! I do have new rollers and filters for replacements but I'm not quite ready to change them out! Also, there is something much fine dust she is picking up and I am impressed as heck about that!!! Overall I love this little robot and she does a great job, takes her about 80 minutes to clean the1200 square foot upstairs of the house and i love her!! I am very pleased with Shark products and this one is no different! No issues that can't be fixed with a little maintenance on my part and well worth it!!

This has been a house saver! Our labsky and long haired kitty were driving me wild with the amount of cleaning I had to do with all the hair. This has reduced the workload and I'm so grateful we invested in one. We unload it everyday because of all the hair and stuff it picks up. It runs on time and love doing it first thing when I get up to keep an eye on it. The only con is it gets stuck on our screen door track, but problem solved by closing it. It will get caught in clothes and towels left on the floor, so run it only when your floors are clear of that. 200$ sounds like a lot, but it has paid for it self with saving me time, energy and stress over cleaning. Put it in your cart and buy it if you want something to help you maintain cleanliness without the headache.

1- Does not work in the UAE as an app (need to download an apk) 2- after working for 2 days - it broke - does not self empty 3- Suction power and maintenance is bad. Do not waste ur money. other options are better i got the Roborock Q7 max and is wayyyyyy better and is supported.

This device kept breaking down and the company keeps stalling on my refund. Its been 2months since its been picked up But STILL they have not refunded me.

Gran product de limpieza

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. Recomendaría 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
