Shark Mop/Vac 2in1.

Maps entire house, send to do one room, multiple , or all. Comes home when full, auto empty and return to complete task.
Give you est time to complete and will recharge then return to complete task.

Mop have to change front unit to mop head. Mops from rear, while vacuum in the front. It will tell you when fluids are low and when to add. I will send out to mop couple areas, remove mop pad, RINCE CLEAN, THEN SEND BACK OUT.

I have hand mopped room, then sent out R2D2 (yes named, pool robot is C-3PO)
I can’t believe how much the mop pad comes back dirty.

One drawback you have to manually empty vacuum when mopping.

That said I have had two iRobot one just vacuum, one mop/ vac.

Shark did a better job after iRobot cleaned, because clean path is better on shark.

Note if you have a pet, don’t run robot while you are gone. Our pets challenge it, treat it like a toy.
If no pets send it out when you are leaving, clean floor when you return.

I gave our oldest iRobot vac, he has trained his dog to hit the button on command “Esme clean your room” to start cleaning.

iRobot mop/vac is up north and our granddaughters cat rides on it while it runs.

Best investment ever. Entertainment for pets and clean floors
