Shark releases hybrid robot vacuum and mop models

Shark has released and promoted several robot vacuum and mop hybrid models featuring different specialized technologies.

The Shark PowerDetect UV Reveal is a high-end hybrid model priced at $1,299. It features a UV module designed to detect invisible stains, a 360 LiDAR module for navigation, and an UltraRange Camera. While it demonstrates strong suction on carpets and effective navigation, reviews note it struggles with pet hair and can smear messes during mopping. The Ecovacs Deebot X8 Pro Omni is noted as a more cost-effective alternative.

In a separate offering, the Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 is available on Amazon at a discounted price of $429.99, down from $699.99. This model utilizes Matrix Clean technology for grid-pattern vacuuming and Sonic Mopping for high-frequency floor scrubbing. It includes an automatic emptying base that can hold debris for up to sixty days and allows for customized mapping and no-go zones.
