Shark RV2620WD AI Ultra Robot Vacuum and Mop

If you want a **robot vacuum and mop** that can keep up with pets, carpets, and hard floors, this Shark is aimed squarely at the real world rather than showroom floors. It uses **360° LiDAR mapping** and **Matrix Clean** to work in a grid pattern, so it covers rooms more methodically than bargain bots that wander and miss patches. ## What makes it worth it The big selling point is the combination of strong vacuuming, sonic mopping, and Shark’s **self-cleaning brushroll**, which helps with pet hair and reduces tangles. **CleanEdge Technology** is another genuine advantage, using air bursts and corner recognition to improve edge and corner pickup versus older Shark models. The app support is also decent, with room-by-room cleaning, scheduling, and recharge-and-resume behaviour, which matters if you want a robot to do more of the work while you’re out. ## Where it falls short TechRadar found the AI Ultra line is **pricey** and that the **battery life and charge speed are only okay**, so bigger homes may find it a bit impatient. Edge cleaning is improved, but still not perfect, and you’re paying for convenience as much as raw cleaning power. Buy this if you have pets, mixed flooring, and want a robot vacuum mop that can handle regular upkeep with minimal fuss. Skip it if you want the cheapest robot cleaner, or if you need best-in-class battery life for large homes.
