has more capacity than the Shark EZ with a difference of 0.6L
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 beneficial 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 Shark AV2501S's reach, enabling it to ruffle up and collect dirt and debris from these often-neglected areas.
Many robot vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors and indicators to notify users when the dustbin 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. Shark AV2501S also can indicate when its dustbin is full, for a robot vacuum to alert that it's full can improve the convenience of owning one since it minimizes the need for constant monitoring.
The Shark EZ weighs 2.8kg, robot vacuums are commonly designed to be lightweight and compact to easily get around and portability. The Shark AV2501S, at 3.1kg
weighs more than the Shark EZ by 0.3kg. It's advisable to take in consideration the weight of the vacuum when getting a model, and that's if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
Shark EZ has a width of 340mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, is 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 duration it takes to clean a room
Shark AV2501S, at 348mm
measures more in width than the Shark EZ by 8mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, reducing the time it takes to clean a room. Shark EZ's height measures 89mm, here you are looking at the measure from the bottom to its highest point.
Height is a key consideration, especially if you have obstacles with low clearance in your home. Shark AV2501S, at 104mm
measures more in height than the Shark EZ with a difference of 15mm. 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 run on a single charge. It is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Shark EZ's battery power is 2,450mAh
Shark AV2501S, at mAh2,500
has more battery power than the Shark EZ with a difference of
A bigger capacity implies longer battery life which can be of advantage if you have a large room or if you would like the robot vacuum to complete cleaning cycles without frequent interruptions to recharge. The operating time of the Shark EZ refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to return to its charging dock for recharging.
Shark EZ's operating time is 2.4h
The Shark AV2501S, at 1.5h
spends less time than the Shark EZ by only 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 Shark AV2501S, at 4h
charges for longer than the Shark EZ with a difference of 0.7h.
Charge time is an important factor to consider when choosing a robot vacuum, as it determines how long you'll need to wait before the vacuum begins 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 often measured in watts (W) and can vary among different robot vacuum models based on several consuption factors.
An overheating indicator in a robot vacuum serves many key purposes, making it a very important safety feature. It helps protect the Shark EZ from damage by detecting when critical components, such as the motor or battery, are operating at temperatures that could cause harm. Shark AV2501S also has an overheating indicator, the indicator helps mitigate this risk by preventing the robot vacuum from working under unsafe conditions.
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.
