2. Shark ION
The Shark ION is a basic robot vacuum cleaner with an impressive amount of features for the money. It has a long-running time and does an excellent job of cleaning carpeted or bare floors. It's a great app and works well when used with Alexa. robots that vacuum and mop does not have the mapping capabilities and other advanced controls you will find in more expensive competitors.
This robot vacuum features an extremely powerful motor that has multi-surface brush rolls that penetrate into cracks and corners to ensure your home is clean. It comes with bumper sensors that help it avoid collisions, and a lower cliff detector to keep the robot from falling. It can also be programmed to run a single room or set of rooms at regular intervals and is capable of resuming cleaning sessions that were stopped midway through.
The Shark ION is extremely effective in cleaning floors with no dirt. However, it struggles to remove pet hairs and fine debris from carpeted surfaces. It also gets stuck under furniture. It is capable of avoiding obstructions, and runs for 90 minutes.

The app will tell you how much battery remaining and the status of the vacuum. It will also inform you whether the cleaning session has been completed or not.
Another thing that many people have liked about this vacuum is its ability to work with Alexa. This vacuum can be turned on and off by simply speaking. You can also set up cleaning times by using the app. The only negative that we found with this robot is that it takes a little longer to charge than some of the other models that we've examined, and that the two included hand vac attachments can't fit into the base and can get lost pretty easily.

This model isn't very good in spot cleaning. We tried it by scattering rice grains across carpets with low pile and sending the robot in to clean. The robot was unable take up or push the rice grains. This is a disappointing test given that other models have performed better in this test.
It's also worth mentioning that the Samsung Jet Bot AI+ isn't cheap in comparison to its rivals. Other robotic vacuums offer the same quality and performance at a lower cost.
