Our Verdict
Shark WANDVAC
iRobot H1
The Shark WANDVAC and iRobot H1 each have their own advantages. The Shark is easier to maintain, incurs virtually no recurring costs, is notably lighter, and recharges much faster. Conversely, the iRobot comes with a motorized turbo brush as well as a larger dustbin and performs notably better on high-pile carpet. It also has a suction power adjustment feature and lasts much longer in its most energy-efficient configuration.
