Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum & Mop in Black/Silver

If you own both hard floors and rugs, you'll know the compromise most robot vacs force you into — suction strong enough for carpet often buffers poorly on sealed wood or tile, and anything with a mop pad typically struggles when it hits a rug border. The Shark Matrix Plus sidesteps this by combining sonic mopping — a rapid scrubbing motion rather than passive pad-dragging — with a matrix cleaning pattern that maps your home in a grid to reduce missed strips. It's doing two distinct jobs in one pass on hard floors, not just vacuuming with a damp cloth draped underneath.

Who Is This For?

This suits someone with a mixed-floor home — think open-plan kitchen-diner running into a living room rug — who wants one device to handle daily maintenance without swapping tools or manually mopping after the robot's done. It's particularly well-suited to pet owners on hard floors where grit and hair accumulate quickly. If you live in a flat with exclusively carpet, or want a robot that can tackle genuinely stubborn stains rather than surface grime, this won't satisfy you.

What Buyers Say

Owners consistently praise the matrix navigation for being noticeably more thorough than older random-bounce robots, with far fewer missed patches in corners. The sonic mop draws particular approval for leaving hard floors visibly cleaner than passive-mop rivals. The most common frustration is with the app connectivity — setup can be temperamental, and some users report inconsistent scheduling via Wi-Fi. It's also worth noting the dustbin is on the smaller side for larger homes, meaning more frequent emptying. For more options at this price tier, see our best robot vacuum mop combo deals UK guide.

The Deal

Currently priced at £199.99 against an advertised was-price of £399.99, this looks like a 50% saving — however, our price history across 369 data points shows it has never been sold above £199.99 on the tracked retailers, meaning the "was" price should be taken with scepticism. What remains true is that £199.99 is a genuinely competitive price for a sonic-mopping robot vacuum with grid navigation. Check our best Shark deals UK page before buying, but at this price point, it earns its place.
