What buyers say
Most owners find this Shark robot vacuum does a great job quietly picking up pet hair and everyday debris on hard floors, with a self-emptying base that genuinely reduces chore frequency. However, its navigation can be unpredictable, and you may need to tolerate occasional software glitches or prepare to babysit its cleaning routes.
Loved by buyers
- •The bagless self-emptying base holds weeks of debris without needing replacement bags, cutting down chore time.
- •On hard floors, it quietly picks up pet hair, fine dust, and small debris that upright vacs often miss.
- •Row-by-row pattern means it won't randomly miss patches, especially in open spaces.
Buyer concerns

- •Software setup and Wi-Fi pairing often glitch, requiring customer support calls and a steep learning curve.
Frequently Asked Questions
How quiet is the Shark AV911S compared to a regular vacuum?+
Many owners compare it to a dishwasher or sewing machine, noticeably quieter than an upright, so it won't startle pets or interrupt conversations.
Can I control it room by room with the app?+
After an initial mapping run, the app lets you select rooms to clean, though the map editing is less polished than premium robots.
Does it pick up pet hair from carpets effectively?+
It handles surface pet hair well on low-pile rugs if used daily, but don't expect it to pull deeply embedded fur from thick carpets like a full-size vacuum.
How often do I need to clean the robot and base?+
Check the robot's internal bin weekly for clogs, especially if you have long hair, and the self-empty base bagless bin can go up to a month before needing a rinse.
