I will start this by saying we purchased a cheaper, less advanced robot vacuum a few years ago and returned because it couldn’t even clean our house in one day and it had to be emptied several times while running. This SharkClean vacuum still has to stop and empty and recharge mid clean, but it does it all by itself with no help from me. It definitely takes longer than just vacuuming yourself San it does miss a few spots like corners or places I typically would use a hose attachment, but I can set a schedule and the house can be clean by the time we get home. It has never gotten stuck or had an issue while running and does a surprisingly good job of taking care of crumbs and everyday dust etc. We received this to try for free in exchange for a review and I have to say it’s the best item I’ve received from Influenster yet.
