Tikom G8000 Pro cleans all floor types, this is essential, since different rooms inside a home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum cleaner is said to be able to clean all floor types, this means that the vacuum is capable to clean several flooring materials without much limitations.
Shark IQ RV1001AE aslo cleans all floor types, meaning it is designed to be versatile, providing best cleaning results on either hard floors or carpets found in most homes. The robot vacuum's ability to create a map of its cleaning space is one of the commonly asked-for features. The map it creates allows the robot to "understand" the layout of the space.
Mapping and navigation can be used for different situations, e.g. the Tikom G8000 Pro having the mapping feature can provide efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas without accessing those that are not. Shark IQ RV1001AE 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 navigate to the mapped-out spaces to be cleaned ignoring those that aren't. Tikom G8000 Pro has an obstacle sensor, this serves the purpose of detecting and identifying obstacles in the robot's route, this allwos it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the Shark IQ RV1001AE has this sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a comprehensive understanding of its environment, enabling it 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 robot vacuum cleaners and the Tikom G8000 Pro supports this feature. These zones are basicaaly digital boundaries or restricted spaces that you can set up preventing the robot from accessing specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. The Shark IQ RV1001AE also supports the no-go zones feature, such a feature is particularly useful in rooms where there are locations that you want to restrict access to the robot vacuum.
Many 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 Tikom G8000 Pro's dustbin capacity is at 0.6L, dustbin capacity determines how much dust, debris, and pet hair the robot vacuum holds before it can be emptied.
The Shark IQ RV1001AE, at 0.6L
has the same dustbin capacity as the Tikom G8000 Pro
The dustbin capacity varies widely among robot vacuum models, and the size you choose should depend on your cleaning needs and the size of the area you want to clean. Tikom G8000 Pro has twin side brushes, twin side brushes can be useful for certain cleaning tasks, as they help the robot vacuum more effectively sweep dirt and debris from corners and along edges. Different floor types require a robot vacuum to be at a given ground clearance so as to optimize performance.
The Tikom G8000 Pro can adjust its height to match this demand, for example, it may raise itself slightly when transitioning to a carpet to enable effective suction, and then lower itself on hard floors to ensure the brushes make good contact. Automatic height adjustment is commonly found in mid-range to high-end robot vacuum models such as the Shark IQ RV1001AE with advanced sensor technology and adaptability. This feature is essential for maintaining cleaning performance across various floor types, including carpets, rugs, hardwood floors, and tiles.
Many robot vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors and indicators to alert users when the dustbin 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.
