Shark AV911S EZ
Score: 75/100
Roborock Q5+
Score: 75/100Rankings

The Shark AV911S EZ robot vacuum features a self-emptying base and strong carpet cleaning performance, with a low-profile design that fits under furniture. Its camera-based row-by-row navigation is slower and lacks virtual boundaries, and it does not mop. It suits pet owners in single-level homes who value hands-free emptying and solid suction.

The Roborock Q5+ provides 2,700 Pa suction, a 220-minute LiDAR-guided runtime and a 7-week auto-empty dock, focusing on vacuum-only cleaning. It lacks mopping capability and has a relatively small onboard dustbin. Perfect for pet owners and carpet-heavy homes that prioritize hands-free vacuuming.
