The Shark Stratos NeverTouch RV2720ZE claws back one area, smart-home integrations, thanks to its Home Assistant support, which the iRobot Roomba 415X does not confirm for this model. Both robots use LiDAR navigation with multi-room mapping and no-go zones, and both have a dock that washes and dries the mop pads automatically, so the maintenance routine is comparable. Buyers chasing the best all-around value should choose the iRobot Roomba 415X; Home Assistant households that specifically need that integration should look at the Shark Stratos NeverTouch RV2720ZE instead.
