Our Verdict

Shark AI Robot

Roborock S7 MaxV

The Roborock S7 MaxV is a much better robot vacuum than the Shark AI Robot, though that isn't overly surprising given the substantial price discrepancy between the two. The Roborock has a more advanced dual-sensor navigation system, which allows it to map out its coverage area and spot low obstacles. It also features an ultrasonic mopping system that's impressively effective in scrubbing away stains, not to mention a far more potent suction motor, resulting in better debris pickup. Lastly, the Roborock is fully compatible with the brand's Empty Wash Fill Dock, which automatically empties the vacuum's dustbin, refills its water tank, and washes its mopping pads, making for a mostly hands-off ownership experience.
