Our Verdict

iRobot Roomba E5

Shark AI Robot

The iRobot Roomba E5 and the Shark AI Robot both have advantages, so one may suit you better than the other, depending on your needs. The iRobot is better built, has fewer parts that need regular cleaning, has an allergen-trapping HEPA filter, and performs slightly better on carpeted surfaces. Conversely, the Shark has a wider array of automation features, maneuvers itself more effectively, clears more debris on bare floors, and incurs lower recurring costs. It also has a much longer battery life, though the iRobot charges substantially faster.
