The Shark AI Robot (AV2501AE) combines LiDAR navigation with a bagless self-empty base that features a true HEPA seal. This system is designed to trap 99.9% of dust and allergens, making it a practical choice for families with allergies. The robot uses PowerFins technology—a hybrid of silicone and nylon—to help maintain floor contact on both carpets and hard floors, and the base can hold up to 60 days of debris before needing to be emptied manually.
Built with high-impact ABS and a reinforced LiDAR housing, the unit is capable of mapping a home even in total darkness. To help the side brushes last as long as possible, it is helpful to remove hair and fibers from the motor gearbox weekly. Users should also note that the self-empty cycle is relatively loud, reaching approximately 75dB, so scheduling the cleaning for times when the house is active is often more comfortable.
Functional features for the home organizer:
- HEPA filtration in the base for a cleaner home environment.
- LIDAR mapping for rapid and precise floor plans.
- Matrix Cleaning mode for double-pass coverage on floors.
If you would like a model with similar self-emptying features but a smaller, space-saving design, the eufy C10 provides a compact alternative. View our complete guide to floor care in our robot vacuums and mop hybrids category.
