"splurge for the self emptying because if you have to empty it every time you're less likely to use it. We only have to empty ours like once a month and I have a 14mo and a 3yo who drop crumbs everywhere. ... we have a Shark with a large self emptying bin and that thing is great for the price point."
"It saved me so much anxiety and time because I was constantly fighting to make my floors feel clean. ... Now I just have to spot clean and vacuum the corners where the robot can’t reach."
"we have a german shepherd and she sheds all the time. this robot vac has kept up with the dog hair and kept our floors clean for 3 1/2 years now with no issues. ... we run it daily only on our hardwood floors downstairs."

"the only robot vacuum that didn’t clog or burn out was the self emptying shark one ... it’s been going three years strong."
"I’ve seen on the camera the poor guy making multiple trips to self empty while in one room but it’s cut the hair buildup tenfold."

HazardousHD 1.0I currently have the Shark Matrix Robot Vacuum (UR235BCDUS) and I have been extremely pleased with its performance for the price. For only 80$ used off ebay, I have gotten at least 2 years of use out of it on carpet and recently hardwood with no major issue. With the introduction of Hardwood floors throughout my house, I have thought about looking at a mopping alternative/upgrade. I am looking used in my area so just trying to get some ideas on upgrade paths I can look into. I would love the unit to be: \- Full Docking Station with Clean/Dirty Water and Dustbin \- Bagless Dust Bin \- Some type of self-cleaning of the Mop feature \- Decent App/App Feature Set Would love some thoughts n opinions. If this isnt the right sub/post structure, pls lmk
Not worried about budget currently. Just testing the waters with what folks actually use. I really like the bagless design on my Shark Matrix. I have a dog that sheds enough that may make the bag replacement cost stack up really fast. Another small pro is that it makes it incredibly easy to empty. It seems like Shark is the only company with bagless offerings. If that limits the pool too much, maybe ill need to do further research on the bag cost long term..
TheWorstMigrane 0.4Shark matrix - 10000 pa - no mop - less than 200 on Amazon with a 30 day dustbin. Thank me later 💯
It's the suction rating on the product description. Although some people believe the pa rating might be skewed or inaccurate from lab tests vs at home tests. What I can say is I bought it and it's amazing
JellySignificant8964 0.4Keep the shark. In my experience they last a lot longer than roomba.
Curious_Jag2025 0.2I had original roombas for many years. Saw a deal end of 2024 on Woot for refurbished Shark Matrix self emptying robotic vacuums. Since then 7 friends and family have done the same All are very happy, great deal at $100-$t50. My Aussie and I both shed a lot, it goes from carpet to tile and cleans throw rugs. Last time I saw them on Amazon for about the same price
Illustrious_Dust_0 0.2Shark matrix self-emptying. I like it because I can schedule it to run every evening. It’s moves from hard floor to rugs easily
k9rap 0.2we bought a shark self emptying (rv140) a few years ago from lowe’s and it’s been one of the best purchases we’ve made for our house. we have a german shepherd and she sheds all the time. this robot vac has kept up with the dog hair and kept our floors clean for 3 1/2 years now with no issues. we run it daily only on our hardwood floors downstairs. highly recommend.

BakedMasa 0.0Same here. I have a Dyson animal that I use once a week. I run the self emptying shark matrix the days I don’t use the Dyson. I don’t have carpet though and that seems to help. When we had carpet it required more effort on my part.
juno7032 0.0Fail. The tail furs are too long and strong and the roller kept snapping. I had the pet model too. Gave it away and have been happier with the Dyson and a handheld
Gadgetskopf 0.0I've got a Shark something-or-other that has a "matrix clean" function (Dreame does something similar, I think) where after it finishes an area/room, it goes back and does it again running perpendicular to the run it just finished. I don't have any idea about the *actual* efficacy, but my spouse ("it's not vacuumed until you've gone over the same spot in 3 different directions") ***loves*** it. Since 'perception is reality', our carpets are cleaner because my spouse perceives them to be so.
