These are great. I took the governor off mine so it cleans my house in 9 minutes. I clocked it at a constant 38mph. Remember to lift your feet if sitting in a chair or the couch. I’ve already lost one foot! Also, suction power is good. Took 4 people to pull my foot out of the intake. Nice unit
@bugger one more thing. Buy a bottle of Folex cleaner. It will remove blood for carpet, drapes, rugs, clothing and from massive blood splattering on your walls, ceiling, windows, dogs, bedding and neighbors. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! God bless and fucking good damn luck!!! If you pray. Do it BEFORE opening the box.
This looks like an updated version of the one I bought about a year ago. I love mine . . . well worth the 99. That being said, it’s ability to map my 120-year-old house has been a challenge. So, Sharky just bounces around for a while while I walk the dog, and, voila, surface dirt disappears. You will still want a regular vac for deep cleaning, IMHO, but it is great for keeping things looking nice. Say, when you’re busy cooking for your mother-in-law and you notice the floor. Suddenly you do have four hands. How many times does the double duty work for you before you say, “99 dolla done did it?”
@syllable I also bought a refurb Shark from meh a little over a year ago. I am reasonably happy with it.
A plastic piece on the bottom that holds one of the drive wheels in place broke after the first year of regular use. I did a temp repair with Gorilla tape which seems to be holding, but I think I will have to fabricate a more permanent repair at some point. AFAICT, repair parts are not available from Shark.
On a serious note. I don’t have this model but the specs are decent on this unit. I have 2 similar units that I run 5 days a week. One on edge clean and the other is pattern cleaning. I have 3 large dogs and my vacs are FULL every time I run them. They don’t carry much capacity but they do help out. JMO. This one is a good buy for sure at this price. They did the Ye ‘Old $99 price point. They want to move these out quick at that price. Good luck to ya all.
Designed with a Tri-Brush System, combining side brushes, channel brushes, and a multi-surface brushroll to handle debris on all surfaces, corners, and edges
Senses ledges and stairs, avoids damaging furniture and walls, and maneuvers around potential stuck situations, truly knowing your home
SharkClean app lets you start and stop cleaning and schedule your robot to clean whenever you want
Use Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant to easily make the robot clean at your command in your connected home
Suitable for use on hard floor surfaces, as well as carpeting
Whole-home, floor-to-carpet cleaning for up to 2 hours
How loud are these things? Reviews on Bed, Bath & Beyond are mixed for durability and not very encouraging. I have a skitterish cat and it might not take too kindly to a loud vacuum roaming around.
My Shark Robot Ion RV772 WiFi Vacuum (Certified Renewed) QUANTITY: 2, has not arrived yet. Also, it has not shipped yet. The lack of shipment is causal I believe. Standing by.
I got mine last week, and I can’t get it on the Wi-Fi. After some phone tag with Shark, it seems there’s a hardware issue. At least when I run it manually, it works!
I would name mine Bruce.
@ircon96
@macromeh More like THIS Bruce!
This deal sucks!
@yakkoTDI at least it doesn’t stink

I have a robot vacuum: I think it’s called a “spouse.” Fuel required includes chocolate chip cookies and nachos…
Where’s the Tank?
@hchavers That silver button on the bottom is the release for the bin.
@wickhameh thanks for directions for the bin. But where’s the Tank?
@hchavers @wickhameh
That’s what she said.
If I get two, will they play Hide n Seek?
Play “Tag” for three?
Maybe, bumper cars?
If not, what do robots do to amuse themselves?
Or do they just idle and plot their revolution?
(I’m sure the WiFi connection helps them in that.)
@phendrick Remember the warning:
Don’t let them charge up after midnight.
I own sooooo many suck pucks already…
@chrismacenski
And now the new official name has been created!!
/giphy it’s official
I have an ilife that I love, but it doesn’t map. Is this a “run into something, stop, turn around” unit or a more intelligent system?

@irenegade Maybe your cat will like it.
Does it vacuum up rona? Can I remove a few masks if I get one?

@KREE mine didn’t ship until Friday night but I did get it
Getting closer. FedEx, however, says the following:
Package details
WEIGHT 1 lbs / 0.45 kgs
DIMENSIONS 6x4x1 in.
TOTAL PIECES 1
PACKAGING Package
Those are some Shark Robots. Half pound each since I bought two.
@KREE Microbots!
Those measurements seem to be standard for everything Meh sends out; they’re just placeholders and never accurate.
I got mine last week, and I can’t get it on the Wi-Fi. After some phone tag with Shark, it seems there’s a hardware issue. At least when I run it manually, it works!
@sanspoint Did you contact support?

@sanspoint Oh, good.
