After owning roomba-like products in the past, I was skeptical of how much value this Shark could bring. I think I've been safely proven wrong. The thing mapped our house, vacuumed over the top of a rug, and returned to the base to empty itself all with minimal set up from myself. The hardest part was taking it out of the box! The voice prompts are too loud out of the box, but I shut those off immediately and it was quieter than most of my children's toys immediately. 

I've been pleasantly surprised by my experience so far! I'm looking forward to many more pleasant surprises from my Baby Shark!
