Know before you buy
The AI Laser Vision allows the vacuum to detect and navigate around objects in its path in real-time. While it is highly effective at avoiding larger items, it is still recommended to clear small, loose objects from the floor to ensure the most efficient cleaning cycle.
Yes, the brushroll is specifically engineered to actively remove hair as it cleans, preventing the typical tangles that require manual cutting. This feature significantly reduces the need for maintenance compared to standard vacuum brushes.
Absolutely. Through the Shark app, you can set up no-go zones that the robot will recognize and avoid during its cleaning sessions. You can also use the mapping feature to send the robot to clean specific rooms on demand.
The RV2001 provides up to 90 minutes of runtime on a full charge. Please note that a full recharge takes approximately 360 minutes, so it is best suited for daily maintenance rather than deep cleaning an entire large home in one go.
While the robot can be operated manually using the buttons on the unit, a Wi-Fi connection is required to access advanced features like room mapping, scheduling, and voice control via Amazon Alexa.
The dust bin has a capacity of 0.31 liters. Depending on the size of your home and the amount of debris or pet hair collected, you may need to empty it after every one or two cleaning cycles.
