Shark EZ cleans all floor types, this comes in handy, since different rooms within a home may have different types of flooring i.e. carpets. When a robot vacuum cleaner is advertised able to clean all types of floors, this implies that the vacuum is designed and equipped to effectively clean flooring materials without any limitations.
Shark EZ has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor serves the purpose of detecting and identifying objects in the robot's way, allowing it to navigate around them thus avoiding collisions. Also, the Narwal Freo has this sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a comprehensive understanding of its environment, making it possible to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room and preventing damage to both the robot and its obstacles. Shark EZ has 3 cleaning modes, the number of cleaning modes supported by robot vacuum cleaners can vary depending on the make and model of the robot vacuum.
The Narwal Freo, having only 3
has the same number of cleaning modes as the Shark EZ
Robot vacuum manufacturers offer different cleaning modes to provide users with flexibility and adaptability to different cleaning scenarios. The Shark EZ has a period of 1 year, warranty periods typically range from 1 year to 2 years, but some higher-end brands may offer longer warranties. Narwal Freo, at 1 year
has the same warranty period as that of Shark EZ.
When considering a robot vacuum cleaner, it's essential to read and understand the warranty terms and conditions, alongside any limitations or exclusions that may apply. The Shark EZ has washable filters, these are designed to capture dust, dirt, and fine particles during the cleaning process and can be easily removed and cleaned to keep up the vacuum's performance. Narwal Freo comes with washable filters, the advantage of washable filters is that they can be cleaned and reused multiple times, reducing the ongoing cost of replacing disposable filters, plus it's also good environmentally.
Shark EZ's dustbin capacity is at 0.2L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, debris, and pet hair the robot vacuum holds before it requires to be emptied. The Narwal Freo, at 0.5L
has more capacity than the Shark EZ by 0.3L
The dustbin capacity can vary widely among robot vacuum models, and the capcity you choose should depend on your cleaning needs and the size of the area you want to clean. Shark EZ has twin side brushes, twin side brushes can be useful for certain cleaning tasks, as they help the robot vacuum sweep dirt and debris from corners and along edges.
Instead of a single side brush, which is commonly found on many robot vacuums, twin side brushes have two side brushes one on each side of the robot vacuum. They extend the Narwal Freo's reach, enabling it to ruffle up and collect dirt and debris from these hard to clean areas. Many robot vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors and indicators to notify users when the dirt collection container is full and needs to be emptied.
Shark EZ supports this feature, which prevents the robot vacuum from getting clogged thus performance will be maintained as soon as the bin is emptied. Narwal Freo also can indicate when its dustbin is full, for a robot vacuum to show that it's full can improve the convenience of owning one since it reduces the need for constant monitoring. The Shark EZ weighs 2.8kg, robot vacuums are generally designed to be lightweight and compact to easily get around and carrying around.
Narwal Freo, at 4.4kg
weighs more than the Shark EZ with a difference of 1.6kg. It's advisable to take in consideration the weight of the vacuum when selecting a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
Shark EZ has a width of 340mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, refers to the width of the area that it can effectively clean in a single pass. The width of a robot vacuum is important as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a space
Narwal Freo, at 350mm
measures more in width than the Shark EZ with a difference of 10mm.
A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. Shark EZ's height measures 89mm, here you are looking at the measurement from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have obstacles with low clearance in your home.
The Narwal Freo, at 106mm
measures more in height than the Shark EZ with a difference of 17mm. When choosing a robot vacuum, ensure that the robot vacuum can go under the furniture and navigate effectively in your living space without getting stuck or causing damage. The battery power of a robot vacuum cleaner is important as it determines how long the vacuum can operate on a single charge.
It is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Shark EZ's battery power is 2,450mAh
The Narwal Freo, at mAh3,600
has more battery power than the Shark EZ by
A bigger capacity usually means longer battery life which can be beneficial if you have a large home or if you prefer the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles with fewer interruptions to recharge. The operating time of the Shark EZ refers to the amount of time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to be recharged. Shark EZ's operating time is 2.4h
The Narwal Freo, at 3.3h
lasts more than the Shark EZ with a difference of 0.9h
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals.
Shark EZ has a charge time of 3.3h, the charge time of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of time it takes for the vacuum's battery to recharge fully after it has been depleted during a cleaning cycle. The Narwal Freo, at 3h
spends lesser time charging than the Shark EZ with a difference of only 0.3h. Charge time is an important factor to consider when choosing a robot vacuum, since it determines how long you'll need to wait before the vacuum is ready for its next cleaning cycle.
The operating power consumption of a robot vacuum cleaner refers to the amount of electrical power the vacuum uses while it's actively cleaning your home. Shark EZ has a power consumption of 36W, power is measured in watts (W) and can vary among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors. Narwal Freo, at 60W
consumes more power than the Shark EZ with a difference of 24W.
Lower power consumption is more energy-efficient and cost-effective over time, however it may also affect cleaning performance, especially on carpets. An overheating indicator in a robot vacuum serves several important purposes, making it a valuable safety feature. It helps protect the Shark EZ from damage by detecting when key components, such as the motor or battery, are operating at temperatures that are dangerous.
Auto-off is a feature designed to automatically turn off the vacuum after it has completed a cleaning cycle or when certain conditions occur. Shark EZ has an auto-off feature, which is useful for energy efficiency and battery preservation. Also, Narwal Freo has this feature, overall, the auto-off feature in a robot vacuum is a valuable addition that in a way promotes energy efficiency, prolongs the vacuum's lifespan, enhances safety, and adds convenience to the cleaning process.
Self-emptying bins or automatic dirt disposal systems like the Shark EZ, are advanced robot vacuum models that have a convenient feature to empty their dustbins automatically. This feature enables you to program a robot vacuum to focus on cleaning a specific area in your home, Shark EZ supports this, which can be really useful for dealing with localized messes or busy areas.
