"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."
"if we run the robots once day, we can get away with only vacuuming the rugs once a week to once a month. ... They work much better for maintenance than for deep cleaning."
"I have lpv throughout the house, except bedrooms, and the robots run daily."

We have the shark self emptying one, it works great! https://www.sharkninja.com/shark-matrix-self-empty-robot-vacuum/RV2310AE.html
We have two long hair cats and got the Shark Matrix and it’s been great! Three years now and no issues. You’ll need to clean its filters every month or so depending on how much you use it. Our place is around 1800 square feet and takes about 1.5 hours to clean the entire place. The app works well, mapping your place is pretty easy, and it’s detection for new furniture and objects works well. https://www.sharkninja.com/shark-matrix-self-empty-robot-vacuum/RV2310AE.html You can find it cheaper than their site at target, Amazon, etc. You could also get their Vacuum and Mop version for exactly $300 too.
We too have a shark, the AI Matrix Self Emptying one. We have two long hair cats that shed more than my husky growing up did. The amount of hair these cats shed daily is INSANE. The Shark one does a great job a picking it all up. https://www.sharkninja.com/shark-matrix-self-empty-robot-vacuum/RV2310AE.html
I love my shark matrix v2300s (I think) - it picks up so much of my pet hair and rolls right over rugs and my hardwood. I love it for the pure power. I opted for non mop unit so it solely focused on vacuum power. My only complaint is I can't map my second story as it will delete my first story map. And it can't handle multi floor mapping (my second story). I bring it upstairs and let it clean but it won't generate the map so I can label the rooms ect. Overall a 4.8 out of 5 stars
Smooth sailing. The app is pretty straight forward. Your can set auto cleans every day. I can also do quick spot cleans 5 ft x 5 ft anywhere on my map. I set no go zones, I also can pick between eco mode, normal power and, heavy duty cleans. It's a little loud but not enough to throw me off. My dust bin also holds about 30 days worth of dust. It's my first robot and I'm loving it to be honest! I couldn't have made a better decision. Especially for the price point. I got it for 150 bucks on sale! Worth about 250-300 normally. Also uses lidar navigation which is clutch.
I can choose which room to clean or i can chose if I had an emergency clean up in a specific area. I wish I could see a map of the pattern in which it cleaned in the final report as well. Aside from that im extremely happy with it. I read reviews for like 2 months before putting the trigger on one. I also knew that everyone is trying to solve a slightly different problem with a robot. For example my problem was, I wanted a vacuum that could handle 3 short haired dogs shedding in between the work week. I also needed it to be pretty smart in regards to obstacles. I also needed it to handle rugs (I have a rug in my living room) and hardwood. I realized a mop on my unit wouldnt be so convenient as I have a lot of short hairs being released by my 3 dogs. And the wet mop would just make the hair stick to the ground. I had a long in depth convo with chat gpt in regards to recommendations. And I also watched a lot of just dad robot review videos. Find whats best for YOUR situation and go with it!
I got the shark matrix with the self empty base without the mop. Works great and no issues with the app so far, I also like that It has Google home integration. I paid $200 at Costco, not sure I would pay much more than that. I would look into the refurbished ones I think they get down to like $150
Same 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.
I'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.
I bought a refurbished Shark Matrix robot vacuum/mop for $99 on Woot. I haven’t used the mop yet but the vacuum feature is awesomeness!
I love shark matrix!
I use a Shark Matrix. It self empties and has a lot of features for its price point. It uses both bumpers and LiDAR to navigate around and vacuums up GSD and Lab fur really well.
Have had the Shark Matrix for a year now. Works fine. App is not the best, but the bot vacuums and mops the floor pretty well.
I bought Shark and I regret it, and I'll never buy another. Many people on this sub will confirm that they are terrible. Shark broke connectivity with Google Home through a software update 2 months ago and they have done nothing to fix it. It also affects Alexa and Home Assistant, all of which worked perfectly before the September update. Even if you don't use smart home features, the fact that Shark will break software functions and not fix them should give pause to anyone.
Room scheduling was possible through Google Home until Shark broke that connectivity 2 months ago. The fact that they broke it and since then have just been like, "oh well" - it makes me never want to buy another thing from them. Who knows what feature they will break next.
