Shark PowerDetect NeverTouch Pro
Fine for smaller homes with mostly hard floors and carpet that needs a deep clean, but the newer ThermaCharged adds heated washing and better pet hair pickup for less money at Shark.

Newer model: the Narwal Flow 2 replaces this one (rated 3.9, #46 self-cleaning dock). See every Narwal Flow generation.
Pros
- Only 95 mm tall, so it reaches under low beds and sofas
- Track mop is rinsed with warm water and scraped as it goes, and extends to within 5 mm of walls
- Dock washes the mop in hot water and dries it with warm air; a plumbed-in compact version exists
- Left no hair wrapped on the brushes in Vacuum Wars’ tangle test
Cons
- Lifted 83% of sand from carpet, behind cheaper robots
- You add detergent to the tank yourself
- Covered about 1,400 sq ft per charge, far less than the Flow 2 and Freo 20
- Replaced by the Flow 2, which costs about the same
