(NEW!) Shark IQ 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum & Mop

This review is about SHARK RV2620WD AI Ultra Robot Vacuum and Mop with Matrix Clean Navigation. Seems reviews on Amazon are mixed up between different models, so it can be misleading. I also have Roborock vacuum and bought this one due to mopping function which I haven’t been able to try due to issues listed below.1. Mapping: It doesn’t map the home correctly as far as I can say after repeating multiple times.2. Carpet zones: it fails to create carpet zones after multiple tries. this is important if you want to use mopping mode. It has a hard time getting on my thin rugs. Nine out of 10 times it doesn’t go on the rugs during carpet, recognition mode, but it does go on those rugs during mapping mode. Go figure!3. With auto recharging enabled, during the Cleaning runs, it returned to the dock after battery dropped to 90% from 100%. Only after disabling auto recharging, it continued cleaning more than few minutes. And even during those runs, Never cleaned all the rooms selected but only a small section, and then returned back to the dock. This behavior is repeatable. It took about half an hour to clean a small section of the room. Can’t imagine how much it would take to clean the whole house which I have not been able to do successfully with this robot vacuum.4. In the app you cannot see the robot path in realtime unlike Roborock app.5. The push notifications are enabled in the app and phone settings but I do not get any push notifications from the robot activities.6. After trying more than 20 times so far, the robot has not vacuumed the home a single time as selected in the app, only partial sections.It seems this product was released before it was ready for consumer release or at least before the software, the firmware, and the apps were ready for this model. Very disappointed.It seems as if they haven’t done much internal testing for this robot vacuum else I can’t believe why this model was released to consumers.Update:12/19/23: I tried mopping function by selecting only 1 room with tiles Unfortunately even that doesn’t work as the robot really has a hard time navigating and covering the room. It kept on mopping a small tiny area of the room for a very long time and then missed larger other sections of the same room. Eventually ot ended up in the other adjacent room which was not selected for cleaning. Mopping does work okay when it works. Clearly the “AI” name in this model is a big marketing gimmick and the laser radar function does not work. This is the worst robot I have ever used. AVOID at all costs even if it’s free as it does not work at all and will end up wasting lot of time for you.
