Does the UV light actually clean anything?

No. It reveals spills and dried-on messes so you can see them; the vacuum and mop do the cleaning.

Do I have to empty the bin or refill water?

The NeverTouch Pro base empties the bin and refills the water tank automatically. You still swap and maintain the mop pad.

Does it work on carpets?

Yes. It vacuums carpets and floors, with edge detection for corners. Mopping is for hard floors.

What comes in the box?

One antimicrobial mopping pad, two side brushes, a starter VACMOP solution, an odor neutralizer and its assembly, and a standard NeverChange mopping pad.

How does it compare with the RV2820ZE?

Shark rates the HyperSonic mopping at 7x the scrubbing power of the RV2820ZE, and this model adds UV stain detection and the self-cleaning base.

Is the mop pad sanitized between runs?

The base heat-cleans the pad, which Shark says kills 99.99% of bacteria.
