Our Verdict

Roborock S8+/S8

Shark IQ 2-in-1 [RV2410WD, UR2410WD]

As far as hybrid robot vacuums/mops go, the Roborock S8+/S8 is better than the Shark IQ 2-in-1, though that isn't too surprising given the significant gulf in price between the two. The Roborock feels better built, does a better job of maneuvering itself, has an even more feature-rich yet intuitive app, and has a real-time hazard avoidance system. Better yet, it's fully compatible with a base station that empties its dustbin, refills its water tank, and washes and dries its mop pad.
