Tikom G8000 Pro cleans all floor types, this feature comes in handy, as different rooms inside a home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. When a robot vacuum cleaner is stated able to clean all floor types, it implies that the vacuum is designed and equipped to effectively clean most flooring materials without much significant issues.
Shark AV2501S aslo cleans all floor types, which implies that it too is designed to be versatile, giving effective cleaning results on either hard floors or carpets found in most homes. A vacuum's ability to generate a map of its cleaning space is one of the commonly asked-for features. This map allows the robot to keep a record of the layout of the desired space.
This can be used for several purposes, for example the Tikom G8000 Pro having the mapping feature can provide efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas keeping out of those that are not. Shark AV2501S also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation defines how the robot vacuum moves around the space. Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum move to the mapped-out spaces to be cleaned ignoring those that aren't.
Tikom G8000 Pro has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor serves the purpose of detecting and identifying objects in the robot's path, allowing it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the Shark AV2501S 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 avoiding damage to both the robot and its obstacles. No-go zones is a feature of many advanced robot vacuum cleaners and Tikom G8000 Pro supports this feature.
These zones are basicaaly digital boundaries or restricted spaces that you can set up preventing the robot from entering specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. Most modern robot vacuum cleaners such as the Tikom G8000 Pro are designed to work with Amazon Alexa, which implies that they can be integrated with the Amazon Echo ecosystem and programmed using voice commands. The Shark AV2501S can also work with Amazon Alexa, keep in mind that you will require an Alexa-enabled device such as an Echo speaker for voice control to work with your robot vacuum.
The Tikom G8000 Pro is compatible with Google Assistant, enabling you to control it using voice commands via Google Home devices or the Google Assistant app installed on smartphones and tablets. Shark AV2501S too is compatible with Google Assistant, it's advised to verify the level of compatibility with Google Assistant before purchasing a robot vacuum. The Tikom G8000 Pro has 4 cleaning modes, the number of cleaning modes offered by robot vacuums can vary depending on the make and model of the robot vacuum.
Shark AV2501S, having only 3
has less modes than the Tikom G8000 Pro with a difference of only 1
Robot vacuum manufacturers may offer different cleaning modes to provide users with flexibility and adaptability to different cleaning floors. The Tikom G8000 Pro has a period of 1 year, this typically range from 1 - 2 years, but some higher-end models may offer longer warranties. The Shark AV2501S, at 1 year
has the same warranty period as that of Tikom G8000 Pro.
When thinking of buying a robot vacuum cleaner, it's essential to read and understand the warranty terms and conditions, alongside any limitations or exclusions that may apply. Tikom G8000 Pro has washable filters, these are designed to capture dust, dirt, and fine particles during the cleaning process and can be easily removed and washed to keep up the vacuum's performance. Shark AV2501S comes with washable filters, the advantage of washable filters is that they reusable multiple times, reducing costs of replacing disposable filters, plus it's also good environmentally.
The Tikom G8000 Pro's dustbin capacity is at 0.6L, dustbin capacity indicates how much dust, dirt, and pet hair the robot vacuum holds before it requires to be emptied. Shark AV2501S, at 0.8L
has more capacity than the Tikom G8000 Pro by 0.2L
The dustbin capacity varies widely among different robot vacuum models, and the capcity you choose should be based on your cleaning needs and the size of the area you want to clean. Tikom G8000 Pro has twin side brushes, these brushes can be useful for specific 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. Different floor types require a robot vacuum to be at a given ground clearance so as to optimize performance.
The Tikom G8000 Pro adjusts its height to match this demand, for example, it may raise itself slightly when moving to a carpet to allow for effective suction, and then lower itself on hard floors to make sure the brushes make good contact. Automatic height adjustment is commonly found in mid-range to high-end robot vacuum models such as the Shark AV2501S with advanced sensor technology and adaptability. This feature is essential for keeping up cleaning performance across various floor types, including carpets, rugs, hardwood floors, and tiles.
Most robot vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors and indicators to alert users when the dirt collection container is full and needs to be emptied. Tikom G8000 Pro 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 reduces the need for constant monitoring.
Tikom G8000 Pro 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 Tikom G8000 Pro by 0.3kg. It's important to take in consideration the weight of the robot vacuum when selecting a model, and that's if you plan to carry it up and down stairs
Tikom G8000 Pro has a width of 325mm, aslo known as its cleaning path width, is the width of the area that the robot vacuum 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 space
The Shark AV2501S, at 348mm
measures more in width than the Tikom G8000 Pro with a difference of 23mm. A wider cleaning path can cover more ground in a single pass, shortening the time it takes to clean a room. Tikom G8000 Pro's height measures 78.7mm, here you are considering the measure from the bottom to its highest point.
Height is an important consideration, especially if you have furniture with low clearance in your home. The Shark AV2501S, at 104mm
measures more in height than the Tikom G8000 Pro by 25.3mm. When selecting a robot vacuum, make sure 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. Battery capacity is typically measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), Tikom G8000 Pro's battery power is 2,600mAh
Shark AV2501S, at mAh2,500
has less battery power than the Tikom G8000 Pro by only
