If you hate cleaning the floors, it’s probably time to get a robot vacuum. Snag this bagless, self-emptying Shark AV2501S while it’s 40% off. Normally costing $549.99, this Wi-Fi-enabled, smart machine is going for only $329.99 right now, but not for long.
This robot includes Shark’s proprietary Matrix Clean navigation, which utilizes AI to promise no missed spots, multiple floor pass-throughs and superior object detection. It’s so powerful that you won’t have to run around the house cleaning before running the vacuum, either. And because it runs with voice control via Amazon’s Alexa or Google Assistant and comes with a handy app, you don’t even need to leave the couch to get it going.
Its bagless design has a self-emptying base that holds up to 30 days of the yucky stuff you don’t want on your floor. Bonus: This Shark boasts a HEPA filtration system to trap even the tiniest dust and allergens. With strong suction and a self-cleaning brush, reviews say this is a great option for parents of both children and shedding pets.
“We bought this a few months ago. When I say life changer I really mean it,” reviewer Brandon wrote. “Between 2 kids, 2 dogs, and 3 cats, this thing has paid for itself.”
Others comment on how easy it is to set up, especially mapping out your home and setting it to run a specific route and routine. Reviewers like it for carpet and hardwood, even commenting on how “seamlessly” the machine transitions between the two.
“The little brushes on the front of the unit get into corners and around the baseboards,” writes Janet I Hinnenberg. “It even goes under the beds.” Many note the vacuum’s low profile means it easily rolls underneath couches and chairs. Some even say they want multiple machines for each floor of their home.
If you’re trying to limit dirt and dog hair around your house or want to give yourself a break from manually vacuuming, you’ll want to snag this Shark while it’s on sale.

“This product has totally lowered my frustration with the daily dog fur. It picks up VERY well, self empty’s and makes its way around the house well. You can choose the rooms or vacuum the entire house. So far so good on working efficiency toy with few if any malfunctions. Let’s hope it stays that way. It has been worth the price thus far. Let this machine do the work for you !” — Kee Kee
“Now this is a review I’m so happy to write! I love the app that I can set the vaccum to go when I need it to. I can set what rooms I want done or not. It’s quiet and it cleans effortlessly. The mopping function gets most spots and I don’t have to clean as even often to what I was. Love this thing. Especially when I run a daycare as well” — Rachel james
“Purchased the AV2501S in July 2022 and had my first issue with it this week. It wasn’t working at all and the alert lights could’ve been several things. I contacted Shark customer care and a great agent walked me through troubleshooting and got it back up and running quickly. He even stayed on for a bit to make sure it kept working. I return to a brand/company who have not only good products, but great service. More Shark purchases in my future!” — KatMusik
“I have had this vacuum for 2 months now. I have a farm and this has been a great purchase to save me from manually vacuuming every single day. I run this every day while I am working at home and this doesn’t interfere. I would highly recommend. The app is user friendly and the set up for everything was really fast and easy.” — Kaleigh26
“This vacuum is great, it goes back to base and empty itself into a canister that i can empty when I get home. It’s low profile can vacuum under our couch and love seat. It’s also easy to clean the other filter’s on the base unit. We’ve had it for about 3 years now and just recently changed the brushes.” — John
