Shark IQ AV1010AE has a width of 325mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that it can properly clean in one go.
The width of a robot vacuum is important as it can affect its efficiency and the duration it takes to clean a room
The Shark AV752, at 315mm
measures less in width than the Shark IQ AV1010AE by 10mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. Shark IQ AV1010AE's height measures 89mm, here you are considering the measure from the bottom to its highest point.
Height is a key consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. The Shark AV752, at 90mm
measures more in height than the Shark IQ AV1010AE by 1mm. When selecting a robot vacuum, ensure that the robot vacuum can fit under the furniture and navigate effectively in your living space without getting stuck or causing damage.
The operating time of the Shark IQ AV1010AE refers to the time the vacuum can clean continuously on a single battery charge before it needs to be recharged. Shark IQ AV1010AE's operating time is 2h
The Shark AV752, at 2h
has the same operating time as the Shark IQ AV1010AE
Always plan cleaning cycles around the vacuum's operating time to maximize efficiency and prevent "incomplete work" between charge intervals. Shark IQ AV1010AE has a charge time of 5h, 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 AV752, at 4h
spends lesser time charging than the Shark IQ AV1010AE with a difference of only 1h. 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 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.
