Shark customers have been raving about a ‘super smart’ robot vacuum they say is a ‘game-changer’ for people who hate cleaning. The Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Self-Empty Robot Vacuum and Mop is now £50 off at £449.99, down from £499.99.
The deal is also available at Amazon and Currys. The innovative gadget serves as a ‘powerful’ vacuum cleaner that can remove dust and dirt from carpets and mop hard floors, while its sonic mopping function scrubs hard floors 100 times per minute and is safe to use on wood, tile and laminate.
The vacuum uses Shark’s Matrix Clean feature to clean in a precision matrix grid for the best coverage and takes several passes over dirt and debris. It uses blasts of air and corner recognition to pick up dirt from edges and corners and pulls the debris into its path.

It also has a self-cleaning brush-roll with Shark’s popular Anti Hair Wrap Technology that makes it ideal for homes with pets and a bagless base with an Anti-Allergen Complete seal. The Matrix Plus uses LiDAR technology to create an accurate map of your home so it can clean, detect and avoid objects day or night and can adapt when objects are moved around the room.
With this, users can select specific areas to clean on-demand with the SharkClean app, while also setting cleaning schedules and no-go zones so you can control exactly where the robot does and doesn’t clean. The clever little robot empties itself on its bagless base that can hold up to 60 days worth of dirt and eliminates the need to buy extra disposal bags.
It also charges itself and can deliver up to 110 minutes of run-time from a single charge. Shoppers will receive several self-empty and mop attachments with the device, including a filter, side brush and two microfibre reusable mopping pads.
The Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Self-Empty Robot Vacuum and Mop has racked up a 4.6-star rating after 45 reviews, with 95 percent of customers recommending it, according to Shark. Shoppers have called it a ‘game-changer’ that saves ‘so much time and energy’.
One user said: “I’m thoroughly impressed. The vacuum’s ability to sweep and mop is a game-changer. It streamlines my cleaning routine and ensures a thorough job. The self-emptying feature is a standout. No more manual emptying – this vacuum takes care of it automatically, saving me time and effort. Setting up cleaning schedules via Alexa is a breeze. Voice-controlled automation adds convenience to my daily life. The vacuum navigates intelligently, avoiding obstacles and reaching every corner. I appreciate the attention to detail. From dust to pet hair, it tackles everything effectively. I rarely need to use my cordless vacuum anymore. In summary, the Shark combines efficiency, convenience and performance. Highly recommended for busy households!”
Another said: “Great robot hoover. It’s an amazing piece of equipment. Being a mum with two young children and a home that has lots of chores, this is one I don’t have to do as it’s done with a click within the app. I can set it to (vacuum) when I’m out. It has three different suction settings and also an option to matrix clean up and down the room and then across too. The mopping is also a great feature although I don’t use this as much as most of my home is carpet. You can get this (vacuum) to clean a small area or the whole room. I advise anyone who hates (vacuuming) to buy this, so much time and energy saved.”
Another thrilled buyer said: “I can’t imagine not having this now. This is a total game-changer. It’s super smart, navigating around furniture that we move around and it’s pretty good at avoiding our kitten who constantly tries to play with it while it’s on. We were a little nervous about setting it up, but it was surprisingly easy and the app guides you through everything with clear instructions. We schedule the robot to go on whilst at the gym after work and come back to a clean house every evening, we couldn’t go back now. Love it.”
However, the same user pointed out a downside of the Shark vacuum, adding: “One fault is that it would be great if you could add a room without having to remap the whole house again.”
The Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Self-Empty Robot Vacuum and Mop is available at Shark (£449.99), Amazon (£449.99) and Currys (£449.99).
