It really depends on the height it must climb. I have rugs over a half inch thick and mine made it over with no problem.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, the Shark ION robot will easily go over the edge of the rug. I have a fan that has a base that is around 1/2 inch high and the robot would attempt to climb on it, however, I put a 3/4 inch pole down and it would hit the bumper.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Ours is able to maneuver from carpet to hard wood floor pretty well, and my wife has the thick kitchen mats to stand on and it got over them pretty easily also.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have a room that has an area rug with a thick padding and it did get up and over it without a problem a few times. Where I have it now there is none but I have personally seen mine do it.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Depending on the thickness of the pads and total height. I have uneven floors between my kitchen and living room. The Shark ION was able to transition from both those rooms even with the uneven floor and small gap in between. Really impressed by it.
