The Shark RV912S, at 5.6kg
weighs more than the Shark EZ by 2.8kg. It's important to take in consideration the weight of the robot vacuum when selecting a model, especially if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
Shark EZ has a width of 340mm, often referred to as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that it can effectively clean in one go. The width of a robot vacuum is important as it can affect its efficiency and the time it takes to clean a space
The Shark RV912S, at 330mm
measures less in width than the Shark EZ by 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 measure from the bottom of the robot vacuum to its highest point. Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home.
The Shark RV912S, at 83mm
measures less in height than the Shark EZ with a difference of 6mm. When choosing a robot vacuum, make sure that the robot vacuum can fit 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 a crucial factor that determines how long the vacuum can run on a single charge.
Battery capacity is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Shark EZ's battery power is 2,450mAh
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 Shark RV912S, at 2h
spends less time than the Shark EZ with a difference of only 0.4h
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.
Shark RV912S, at 6h
charges for longer than the Shark EZ by 2.7h. 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. An overheating indicator in a robot vacuum serves several key purposes, making it a valuable safety feature. It helps protect the Shark EZ from damage by sensing when key components, such as the motor or battery, are operating at temperatures that could cause harm.
This feature is 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, Shark RV912S supports this feature, overall, the auto-off feature in a robot vacuum is a key addition that in a way promotes energy efficiency, prolongs the vacuum's lifespan, enhances safety, and adds convenience to the cleaning process.
Self-emptying robot vacuum cleaners like the Shark EZ, are modern robot vacuum models that have the ease of use feature to empty their dustbins automatically. Also, Shark RV912S is self-emptying, it's important to note that self-emptying robot vacuums tend to be on the higher end of the price spectrum due to this advanced feature.
