Description
Meet the Shark Stratos 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum & Mop, built to handle everyday messes with powerful, automated cleaning across carpets and hard floors. Strong suction pulls in dirt, debris, pet hair, and fine dust, while advanced sonic scrubbing works to break down dried-on spills and stubborn stains on hard surfaces for a more thorough clean. The NeverTouch base takes care of maintenance from start to finish—self-emptying debris into a bagless bin, refilling water for up to 30 days, and automatically washing and drying the mopping pad after every cycle to reduce hands-on upkeep. Designed with pet owners in mind, it combines deep-cleaning performance with a self-cleaning brushroll that helps prevent hair wrap, while a sealed HEPA filtration system helps capture dust and fine particles inside the base. Intelligent navigation uses LiDAR mapping to quickly learn your home layout, allowing the robot to clean in an organized pattern while avoiding obstacles and adapting to changes in your space. With Edge Detect technology, it reaches along walls and into corners more effectively to pull debris into its cleaning path for more complete results. When transitioning between surfaces, the robot can cross over thresholds and lift the mop over carpets to help prevent unwanted wet messes using AutoLift technology. With the SharkClean app, you can customize how your robot cleans—schedule sessions, target specific areas, set boundaries, and control your cleaning with Amazon Alexa or Google Voice for added convenience. Built for efficiency, performance, and versatility, this robot vacuum and mop delivers powerful, automated cleaning for modern homes.

My Usage and Overall Comments: ============================== Have had the Bot for 2-3 weeks now. Mostly used on 2nd floor (bedrooms/bathrooms/Loft area) which is 90% carpet. I mapped this floor only. Occasionally used on 1st floor, which is about 50% carpet. (Not mapped). Overall it seems to do a pretty good job, keeping in mind these Bot Vacs are not meant for DEEP cleaning carpets. Much quieter than my old Neato Botvac80! Cleans my 2nd floor on a single charge with BOOST cleaning, and recharging takes about 3 hours. Overall I feel it's a good Robot Vac, but wouldn't spend more than $300 for it. Floor Mapping Review: ============================== - My 2nd floor is about 1,000sq ft and it takes about 10-12 mins to map it. - It's not the greatest at mapping. It will sometimes take 2-3 "Explore" runs for it to get it right because it occasionally misses entire wall sections. - Adding/Changing/Removing Room Labels and No-Go Zones on the app is pretty easy. If you're older, it's easier to do it on a Tablet vs the phone. - I noticed that once it completes the entire cleaning run on the 2nd floor, it seems like it internally compares the results with the full map(??), and if it detects area's that it missed it will go back to them to clean them. When it does do that, it doesn't always clean them in the most efficient order, often running from one end of the house to the other to address these areas. I have also seen this behavior when tasked with cleaning a specific room. It's will sometimes bounce around in the room getting the spots it feels it missed. - There have been times where I've seen it do several clockwise/counter-clockwise spins in the same spot as if it's trying to decide where to go next. Sometimes these crazy spins can last 30-40 seconds. - So far no problems with it finding the Base Unit and Docking with it. - Mapping is only required if you need to specify No-Go Zones or want the ability to vac a specific room(s) so you CAN do like in my case, map the most commonly vacuumed floor (ie: 2nd floor) then manually initiate a cleaning for the 1st floor. (see more about mapping in my "CONS" section). Detailed Review: ============================== PROS: - It's fairly quiet. You can actually have a conversation standing next to it as it's cleaning. - Their SHARK CLEAN app is easy to use. Again, if you are older using it on a Tablet (larger screen0 will be a better experience. - The self-vacuuming / evacuation unit works well, typically removing 95% of the bot vac's contents. - So far have not had any issues with it getting stuck in a corner, going over room thresholds/transitions, etc. - Bump avoidance it pretty good as long as objects are high enough for the Lidar Sensor to see it. - No issues transitioning between carpet and hardwood/tile surfaces. - Although it may not take the most efficient paths on occasion, and sometimes re-cleans a section(s) 2-3 times during it's total run, it does appear to do a very through clean, cleaning all the places that it possibly can reach. - It does well respecting No-Go Zones. - Ledge detection works well also, but the fall-off is only detected after about 25% of the bot is hanging over the edge - depending on it's speed. It can be nerve wracking to watch near stairs!! - The Evacuate and Resume feature is nice to have. (After every 30 mins of cleaning, it will return to the Dock to empty its dust bin then return to clean where it left off. - The Do Not Disturb Schedule works well. - The No-Go Zones work well. - Although I have not had a need for it as of yet, I'm confident the Recharge and Resume feature will work fine. FYI: - Initial WiFi Setup: I did have an issue trying to pair the Bot with my phone. I think after I rebooted my phone it finally worked. - Annoying - if you remove the Bot's dust bin while it's ON, it will complain stating it's dust bin needs to be replaced. - The foam roll filter in the Docking station gets VERY dirty real fast and needs to be cleaned every 2-3 runs. It's easy to clean, just tap over a garbage can to get the bulk off, then slide off the foam roll from it's base and rinse in a sink. Let dry completely before returning to docking station. - The Evacuation system will engage EVERY TIME you return the Bot to the dock. So if you pull the Bot off just to check the roller, as soon as you re-dock it, the evacuation system will turn on. - The Evacuation system is as loud as a typical upright vacuum, so keep that in mind when deciding on a location for it!!! - I have not tried the SCHEDULED Cleaning at all. I personally prefer to manually initiate when/where I want it to clean. CONS: - I was not able to Register the Bot via the app - kept saying "Something went wrong". Had to do it online. - The app could use some improvements/updating, like showing the current location of the BOT and what it's cleaned so far as it's running, estimated time of completion, etc. - Deleting your map when you want to do a "Re-explore" (ie: Re-Map) can take a minute or two to complete. - "Matrix" cleaning can only be performed on one room at a time. So if you have 3 kids bedrooms you want to Matrix clean you have to select one, do the cleaning, then send it out again to do the Matrix cleaning on the 2nd bedroom, etc. You might be able to work around this by setting up 3 Scheduled cleanings(??), one for each room. - The Mapping system could be MUCH better. I can understand it not mapping a shoe on the floor, but missing an entire 10-FOOT WALL SECTION??? Would be nice to have Multi-Floor/Level mapping also. - I've run into an occasional issue where after doing a manual cleaning (via press of the CLEAN button) on the 1st floor (not mapped), then using the app to vac a specific room on the 2nd floor (mapped), it will clean the room, but then starts re-cleaning the last 3-foot section over-and-over until I manually stop it. Others also have reported odd issues jumping between "Mapped" cleaning and "non-Mapped" cleaning areas. The fix for me was to delete my map and have the bot do a re-explore to build it again (and hope it does it correctly on the 1st pass). If this issue continues, I'm toying with the idea of not doing any mapping at all and just letting the Bot figure it out as it goes regardless of the floor it's on. I'll loose the No-Go Zones and Specific Room Clean functions and it will likely take longer to run, but it might be worth it until the Mapping Logic is improved. CUSTOMER SUPPORT: ============================== I did reach out to them when I had the "re-cleaning the same 3-foot section" issue after bouncing between a Mapped and Un-Mapped floor. This was during Black Friday weekend, and I only waited 5-10 minutes to speak with someone. They were OK, some easier to understand than others. I was eventually connected with one of their Technical Support staff and had to re-explain the issue. He asked if I could run the cleaning session again (I was fine with that) and he wanted to video record the Bot in action, so he sent me a link for the video connection. I was unable to get that working (Android phone issue??). He asked me to re-explain the issue to him again, and we got into a brief disagreement about how the MATRIX CLEAN function worked - he claimed that was only for "Spot cleaning", which I told him was NOT true. He finally suggested I delete my floor map and re-run another mapping session then try to replicate the problem again. I was assigned a Ticket# to reference when I called them back with my findings. After re-doing the mapping, I haven't been able to replicate the problem yet, and I'm leaning towards assuming the Bot works best with Mapped areas only, and jumping between Mapped/Non-Mapped floors is not 100% supported (???)

I did a good bit of research before deciding on the Shark. We have a Shark upright and another dustbuster size Shark so we are very positive about their products. I chose a spot for the dock that doesn't really comply with the instructions but it hasn't affected the operation in the least. It is under a side table in a bedroom. Works very well from there. I used the app to map my apartment, which it did very well. I closed the doors to rooms i didn't want it to go - either because i just want them cleaned more thoroughly by our cleaning service or i thought it might get stuck on the rugs. It handles rugs pretty well, though. Minor complaint that others have mentioned: it doesn't take the same route each time. And it goes over the same areas more than once. The first time it ran, it got itself stuck under a low riser dresser so i now put a stool in front of the dresser to prevent that. I think the app is pretty slick and easy to use. You can set it to vacuum every day or any odd assortment of days. Ours runs twice a week to be sure the cat hair gets cleaned out. First run complaint: since it was vacuuming under beds, it was probably going places that had not been vacuumed in a long time. So that first time, it filled the bin with cat hair and just stopped in mid run. I had to take it back to the dock but even then it couldn't off load the hair. It was too full and compacted so i had to remove the bin from the robot and clean it by hand. That hasn't happened again though. Just be aware if you have any areas like that. The app lets you do the whole house, just one room, or a selected 5 ft square space. In the app, choosing Spot, it puts a square in the middle of the screen with the house map over laid. You choose the spot by moving the map under the square until it is over the area you want cleaned. It's not intuitive, but once you see it, you know how it works. I read many of the older reviews that mentioned a magnetic strip to keep it from going certain places like off a step. I was wondering where those strips were because mine did not come with any. I almost returned it before the first run because i do have a sunken room and was concerned about it going off the step but it ran right up to the edge, stopped, and then ran along the entire width without a problem. Pretty impressive. It will obviously have trouble negotiating table and chair legs so if you want those areas cleaned you will need to move the chairs. It would also be nice to know how to deal with the sunken area of our home. For now, i take it off the dock and carry it to that room before turning it on. It does the room completely and returns to the starting point where i again have to pick it up and return it to the dock. Then, i have to use the app or the button on top to tell it to return to the dock, which works ok. Im just concerned if this confuses the mapping of the rest of the house. I wish the instructions addressed this issue. UPDATE, Nov 13, 2025: I have been using the robovac for two years now and I still love it. I have discovered a few irritating features- 1. Make sure you don't have anything on the floor that could jam the machinery. My cleaning lady left a dryer sheet somewhere and it got sucked into the filter on the Shark. There is no warning and no other notification that the robot is no longer working. 2. The app keeps asking me to re-logon every time I need to start vacuuming. I have it set up to NOT do that but it seems to forget every so often. It's very inconsistent. The app just needs a little tweaking to be perfect, 3. If you have a separate room that isn't on the same level as the majority of your home, it isn't able to "map" the separate area. That would be a very-nice-to-have feature.

absolutely abysmal cleaning and battery performance I bought this botvac to replace our Neato. The neato has been good but Neato is no longer producing botvacs and the support is all but gone. With that in mind we decided to replace the Neato even though it’s still performing well, at least for now. We started looking for a self emptying model and one that’s only a vac because we have very little hard floors, a mopping unit would be a waste. Not having a proprietary bag was a big plus too. We looked at a lot of reviews after much debate settled on the Shark AV2501S AI Ultra as it checked all the boxes and had decent reviews. $550 was on the high end of our budget but when the price dropped to $279 on Amazon we quickly pulled the trigger! The unit arrived over night and well packed as expected. We unpacked and put the botvac on it’s base and allowed it to charge over night before we even set it up. Setup went Ok, but the first indication of problems started as soon as we had it do it’s first mapping run. We watched it and it missed lots of areas that the Neato had no problem navigating even though the Neato is slightly bigger. We wanted to check the full cleaning power so we set it to max and turned it loose. It came of the base ran about 1 min and then returned to it’s base... WTH? First fail. Restarted the full house clean on max again and same result! Second fail! Ok, maybe it’s something I did wrong. Factory reset, set it back up, did another mapping run and sent it out again. SAME THING! Fail three. Ok, I’m a bit stubborn so I send it back out again with recharge and resume & evacuate and resume both on. It only makes sense right? Low and behold, it actually starts to vacuum the house but… after about 45 min it returns to it’s base to empty and recharge. WTH? It’s supposed to have a 120min battery life! 3 hours later it finishes it’s run. Almost 4 hours to vacuum the house... The Neato did it in about 1 hour with plenty of charge to spare. Fail four! At this point it’s been an all day affair. Frustrated we leave it to charge over night and try again in the morning. The next mornings attempt 2 went not much better. I deactivated the recharge and resume & evacuate and resume and sent it back out again with max. Shark states it has a 120min run time so we figured even though it was on max it should have no problem with our house which has 800sqft of open floor space. At first it wouldn’t start because it was asking to empty the dust bin. Ok, completely emptied the base and bot, blew them out with compressed air so they were squeaky clean and tried again. Success! It finally starts it’s run. At about the 40% battery remaining level or so I noticed the suction sound reduce down to the “normal” level. Not cool… It did manage to finish the run but I noticed it wasn’t picking up even small pieces of debris. Fail five! Ok, my butt is really getting chapped about now so immediately I sent the Neato out on max power as we always do. Keep in mind the Shark had already done a run and the Neato needs to have the dust bin emptied every time so it’s empty too. Time to compare the results. All the stuff the Shark clearly missed is gone and it only took about a hour as usual. Let’s see how much the Shark and Neato picked up. I took both dust bins and dumped them each onto a sheet of paper. OMG! The Shark performed abysmally. While I didn’t do any scientific measuring you can see the Neato picked up at least 5 times or more debris than the Shark. And that was right AFTER the Shark had done it’s run. Bottom line – the Shark’s performance is atrocious. The suction is poor, the battery life is poor and the mapping is poor. This thing is headed back to where it came from! So disappointed...

[update May 18, 2024] I'm even more pleased after Buddy has been on the job for six months. He's just a joy to have around. Yes, he has a name now. Buddy has gotten stuck no more than four times while cleaning at least part of the house every few days. I'm still amazed at how much stuff (mostly cat fur) is in the base station when I check it every month or two, because to me the house looks like it's mostly clean all the time now so I don't expect that much "invisible" debris to be collected. The self-cleaning brush roller isn't completely maintenance free, but I never expected it would be. The worst culprit isn't the cats, but my wife's hair. Fortunately it's extremely easy to pop the roller out and untangle the stuff, which I do about once per month. You can hear when it needs a cleaning. The only thing I really wish for is a single-room learning update. No way I want to update the whole house again, but there are one or two small pockets where Buddy just doesn't go. I'd like to be able to update just that one room without having to re-learn the whole house. But, I have to say, this is one of the most unexpectedly satisfying purchases I've made ever. [original review] I can't compare this robot vacuum to any others because it's my first. I will say that I didn't expect it to work as well as it does. We have two rag doll cats that put out an amazing amount of fur. It's either vacuum all the time or just put up with it between vacuuming. Not any more! Sure, it can't get everywhere the fur likes to go hide, but surprisingly, it does get most of it. We have wood floors with area rugs. I was afraid it would choke on the thicker area rugs. They're a pain to do even with a regular vacuum, but it handles them like a champ! It's so refreshing to see the floors so tidy. I'm embarrassed at what we put up with before. Another nice thing is if I make a mess, such as in the kitchen, I no longer care. I just whip out the phone and order up a room cleaning. Now for the big advice. Spend as much time as needed getting the initial exploration, map, and room creation process as perfect as possible. Move everything you can out of the way so it doesn't mistake something like a bathroom scale as part of the house geometry. After the first few tries, there were areas it just decided weren't part of the house because it couldn't get there when exploring. It simply wouldn't clean there even if not obstructed! Once I went through the house thoroughly and got everything I could out of the way, it made an excellent map. When you put things back, the map will remain but those things will just be seen as temporary obstacles. Seriously. It's worth the work. My biggest ask for improvement would be single-room learning. After going to all this trouble getting a good map, I really don't want to re-learn the whole house if I, say, rearrange the furniture in one room. But for now that's not an issue. I initially took off a star for these initial shortcomings but have put it back up to five stars. Overall it's fine. I can't say for sure, but I think it's getting smarter. For sure, it hugs the walls really well now, where it wasn't doing that before. The only downside is I can't say this thing is saving me any real time yet because I end up following it around the house just to watch. lol!

Overall I'm satisfied with the product so far, but have a couple of issues. Now that I have it set up, it operates as advertised. Using the phone app, I can direct it to go vacuum a room. It goes, vacuums the room, returns to base, empties direct into the base receptacle, and recharges. The initial setup was extremely difficult. It came with no manual, only a brief sheet of steps printed on a sticker on the device. They didn't work, so I hunted for a PDF manual online. A QR code which pretends to lead to the manual actually takes you to a shopping site. The manual, once found, is written vaguely to cover numerous different models. I was surprised that once I finally had the device paired to my phone, it still didn't seem to know which model it was and wasn't able to give me precise instructions in the app. It is finally working, and I enjoy that it can vacuum under beds. My house has a second story and I see no way to add the 2nd floor to the house map. I've only been able to vacuum the upstairs in manual mode where it just bumps around the floor somewhat randomly and haphazardly. It seemed to miss a lot, but once I sent it around 3 times the upstairs looks pretty good. The instructions I found online suggest that I should be able to map the upstairs, but it refers to options in the phone app that I don't see. I'm choosing to be satisfied overall with the quality of cleaning. It is noisy if you are trying to work or watch tv, so setting it loose while I am out of the house is nice.

ALL HAIL KING SHARKVAC, EATER OF BUNNIES DUST MADE, CONSUMER OF CAT HAIR! *slaps box it came in* THIS BABY SUCKS AND SWEEPS THE FLOOR SO GOOD, YOU'D THINK IT INVENTED CLEANING! The only thing I'm disappointed in is me NOT getting one sooner. Setup was a bit tricky but I then realized I was using a VPN on my phone while trying this. TURN OFF THE VPN DURING INITIAL SETUP! The app is very user friendly, I'm sure my 80 year old grandma could set one up. The fact that I caught it in a sale and have my floors swept daily really adds to the value in my opinion. It goes everywhere you want it to: bathroom, kitchen, bedroom, closet, living room, you name it! Sharkvac has earned his keep in my apartment. Were there some growing pains? Of course! He got trapped with some cords and yarn in my bedroom from a project I was doing, but that was because I missed a small piece of the yarn hanging off the bed. Sharkvac sent a notification while I wasn't home letting me know it was trapped by something. It also connects to your smart home for easy automation. I suggest setting a schedule at a designated time. Again I am EXTREMELY thrilled with my purchase and you should consider adding one (or two) to your home.

2/12/25 Revising my rating Everything I originally stated below is trues. However, have 18 months of use, 6 days/week, there are things you should know. Maintenance - remember to change the filters in the base as well as the roving unit. The engineers decided to used both hex head and Phillips head screws. You need multiple small tools to change filters and whisker brushes. Finding a replacement main roller that FITS hasn't happened yet. I have a drawer with several non-fitting spares. Some too long, some too short. I have noticed that run times are getting shorter and charging times longer. I assume I will need to change the battery soon. Research indicates they last about 2 years. As much as I like Shark products, when this one eventually dies, I will be very thorough in researching the next unit. And, the paperwork all indicates I bought a AV2501S, however the sticker says AV2510SXUS --- buyer beware. Originally, I expected an overgrown toy/gadget. I think my wife expected the same. After a pretty in-depth research, the Shark AV2501S AI, won out. Mostly because we already own a Shark upright unit that is great for pet hair. We have two large dogs. One is a half Mal that can leave a layer of hair on the floor overnight. It has been about 30 days since this shark has come into our home. The unit runs 6 days a week and on command. So far, it works quite well. Generally, it will have to stop the routine and dump a load back at the base while cleaning. If you have pet hair, or a lot of dust, get a model that is self-dumping. As for the *estimated 30 days* of storage in the base, I have to dump our storage unit every other day. We only wanted a vacuum, not a mop machine. I can't see a machine that holds 600ml of water mopping the floors. We have all hardwood. And, mopping bots have had poor sanitary ratings related to their cleaning pads. The Shark AI units use LIDAR and have a specific cleaning pattern. Apparently, some of the other units seem to use more random patterns. TIP: Move all obstacles when you perform the initial mapping routine. Including any items under furniture. One of the best features is that the Shark gets all pet hair under the bed and couch. I saw another review that described the Shark robot as "aggressive." That is a good description. So far, it seems to attack one of the bar stools and is relentless. To date, it has gotten tangled up with the cord hanging from the blinds, a loose seam on the couch cover and the shaggy bathroom rug. When it does, I get a notification via the phone app. Finding it stranded in the house can be interesting. It should have an optional audible signal when it gets in trouble. Non-Five star rating -- The dump station needs to be a bit larger. The software can stand a few improvements : Alex usually needs a two-part command to get things moving. The scheduling feature of the app can ONLY activate once per day and ONLY clean the whole house. You should be able to schedule rooms at optimum times and multiple times per day,. You should be able to modify the house map without the need to run and entire mapping operation again. Same with No entry zones. These are pretty easy to create but you should be able to edit them. Overall this is a good unit. If things change, I will update the review. _____________________________________________________________________________________ 10 Weeks of ownership report Sharky is still diligently picking up pet hair and other small debris. Still attacking the bar stool and has only gotten stranded a few more times. What we have noticed that is beginning to bother me is, the unit may take off late in the afternoon or early evening. It is programmed to launch Mon-Thursday at 8:45 AM. When taking off late, it heads straight to some spot before cleaning. I am pretty sure it is picking up where it last stopped. In checking the history, it indicates about 170 -180 mins of run time per day. 1250 sq ft of area covered. That seems like a really long time to clean the floor. It runs about 45-70 minutes before returning to the dock for recharge. It takes about 3 hours for enough recharge to get going again. Two concerns here: I think the battery is prematurely pooping out and there is NO direct communication method with Shark central. ========================================================= 13 Month Update Reports show it cleans 1233 ft2 in 161minutes yesterday. This is actual cleaning time, excluding the intermittent charging period. Maintenance performed to date: Replaced the roller, side brushes and filters. I was not aware the base unit has TWO filters until I received a filter kit. I had only been cleaning one. The other was solidly clogged. Sharky still runs 6 days/week. Recently, I adjusted the schedule and suddenly it began skipping cleanings. I have yet to determine the issue. The unit has to be forced to start cleaning either through the app or by pushing the "clean" button on the unit. It still gets all the pet hair. It still gets hung up on various things like cords, rug fringe, shoes, and bath towels. Overall this is a great unit. My negatives still remain: No updates to the software, or firmware. It needs an alarm on the base hopper to notify someone it is full, the unit needs an (optional) audible alarm for when it gets stuck so you can find it. Using the software to find it has such a delay, it is useless. Since ours is used nearly daily, I am wondering just how long the battery will last. The software should allow for scheduling different rooms at different times -- it does not. The voice command in Alexa needs something like "Shaky, go home." Or, "Sharky, come back later." My wife works from home and often the Shark's cleaning schedule conflicts with her work.

If you have a dog or cat you need this :-) It works great and is a major upgrade on the earlier Roomba robo cleaner from years ago that we had. Seems to handle transitions like wood floors to carpet fine. Maybe you might want to pickup small rugs like bath mats before setting it off to clean though. Overall its great value and has an app which lets you control it from anywhere. Set it off cleaning while you're at work and come back to a clean floor. With any luck the dog will ignore it like ours does :-)
