Medtech, advise me a robot vacuum cleaner with wet cleaning

Added Saturday 04 Jun 2016 10:50 PM

Medtech, 156m. 6 rooms .45m the largest room. laminate plus carpet. cat and dog. one man. hostess. maintaining cleanliness. ready. I love worthy things

[esenij]

esenij, there is no budget, there is no answer, this is a work in two directions, you give me the data I give you the answer

[Medtech]

Medtech, 25000-40000t

[esenij]

esenijYou only have one option, and Klebo Arte with a carpet is so-so or the future Omega, the next version with a carpet is fine, but such an area is already 2 times with intermediate charging, crossing a snake and a hedgehog is not always good, two different robots are better, each works in its own area - one vacuums the other, wipes the harvesters on the field are good.

[Medtech]

Medtech, Sergei, please tell me, will Irobot Braava wipe it with a sufficiently damp cloth or practically dry? And it, like the Irobot Roomba, must be constantly charged?
I want a floor polisher, I really look forward to your advice!

[Belka13]

Belka13, Braava is small, it has a charging dock, but you put it there yourself, the robot does not charge automatically, does not automatically start, wet cleaning without even the near presence of an operator is not very good. The robot can be constantly on charge or just lie / stand charged somewhere.
In Braave there is a small container for water that feeds the napkin during the cleaning process, but do not flatter yourself with a large cleaning area, usually a napkin for one room, then it is better either to wash it and continue cleaning or take the next clean one, and then wash all wet napkins immediately ... The robot can also wipe the floor in dry mode, many users wipe with a damp cloth in dry mode and they are also satisfied with this.
You should watch videos and pictures of real users how Braava works.

[Irina742]

Irina742, or carpets, or iKlebo, or put up with wool on the carpets and on the robot's brush. Wet cleaning at 100 meters with one cloth of questionable quality.
Therefore, if you want to buy iKlebo, you should take the second base so as not to carry it here and there, and use the MAX mode on carpets, it is not for nothing that the Koreans left it in their robot.

I was aiming at aiklebo art, and now I came across their new model omega, but it is not yet, as I understand it, on sale. How is he in terms of communicating with carpets?

[Medtech]

Medtech, Sergeias always, thanks a lot

[Varnika]

Varnika, on the carpets they promise super, but I have not yet been in my hands, they promise.
World sales are expected to start in September.
According to technical indicators, everything will be so, but the local price will be higher than Arte.

We need to save up))) there is time until September. And in your hands, it is by chance, before sales in Russia will not appear, your opinion is very interesting.

[Varnika]

Varnika, He already has it in Russia, from an official dealer, but he does not give it, he says that the firmware is still being finalized, therefore there are no world sales, only in Korea, he promised to give it a look after updating the firmware so that I would not spoil the first impression with stale firmware.

I'll wait)))) Well, they also do the right thing, the first impression is so hard to erase.

[Medtech]

Medtech, what do you think of the new Hobot-268 window cleaning robot?

[Belka13]

Belka13, I don’t know, the method is very simple, it wipes it, it still doesn’t rub it in the corners, there are sensors and the robot also doesn’t reach the corners a little less, but .... 168 The trunk was brought in for repair, rubs, rubs a lot, and the square one just moves a napkin, you have to watch the video, read real reviews, I have no opinion.

Good day. I would be grateful for your help in choosing. ))
1.120 meters (house)
2.5 rooms
3.60 meters (this is a combined kitchen-dining room and living room, there are no doors between them)
4. tile + laminate
5.a dog (with short hair) and two cats (there is no hair from them, since they are bald, but the filler is scattered regularly)
6.no
7.me or my husband, usually there are no problems with technology
8.Daily maintenance cleaning
9.yes
10. I would like to keep within 20,000-25,000, but probably nothing quality can be found in this cost ((((, therefore, the maximum allowable budget is 35,000 rubles.
Thank you in advance.

[Alen-k @]

Alen-k @, iKlebo Arte, Botvaki any.

Alen-k @, iKlebo Arte, Botvaki any

Thank you so much. That is, both of them will be good at collecting short hair? Since this is still the main trash in the house. ))) And who would you choose from these two options?

[Alen-k @]

Alen-k @, I would choose the Kobold VR-200, all robots have some subtleties in use, whether they are critical or not, you can only find out after trying the robot for at least a week, it takes a lot of time to talk about the subtleties in the forum format, today is the first day of the rest of your life.

[Medtech]

Medtech, Sergey, please tell me what kind of robots are there with both the suction function and the sweeping function?

[Svetlana2014]

Svetlana2014, in robots with turbo brushes there are always two of these options, only for a long time the Robot combined these two processes, although in Trilobite from Electrolux it was so from the very beginning. Now in the Chinese who stupidly copy old developments, passing them off as new decorating with intriguing names, they repeat suction and sweeping, sweeping is a process without the participation of air movement, only bristles work, you also sweep the debris with a broom.
More than a hundred years ago, this process was separate, not very effective, for example, such a device from my collection

[Medtech]

Medtech, good day. I ask for advice in choosing a robot.
1) House on 2 floors. Total area 180 sq. m.
2-3-4) 1st floor: room 20 m with loop carpet, kitchen with laminate flooring, hallway with carpet. There is a two-step difference between the room and the kitchen.
2nd floor: hall, of which 4 rooms, the larger area - 25 squares. In one room there is a cork, in one there is a carpet with low pile, the rest of the floor is laminate. There are ordinary butt thresholds between the rooms and the hall.
5) there are no animals
6) long-haired - one.
7) we will clean and monitor ourselves.
8. I would like to free myself from cleaning as much as possible.
9) there is little furniture, we will clean up toys.
10) any budget, but you don't want to overpay. Cleaning quality and robustness come first.
We want a robot vacuum cleaner and floor polisher. We live in a small town where there is only an iRobot office. Of course, we can buy any, but the nearest service center, for example aiklebo, is in Kazan, 400 km away.
What options are seen:
1. Aiklebo Omega is like two in one, but perhaps as a floor polisher he is not very good and Braava is necessary for him.
2. Rumba 880 + Braava.
3. Botvak 85 + Braava?
We are ready to listen to all suggestions. Thank you.

[Maryka]

Maryka, It is worth considering that the floor polisher does not drive on carpets and such complex cleaning is possible only on smooth surfaces.
A robot suits you only with navigation or building a map, Rumba is not lower than 980, Omega will most likely have to wait until the end of September, and Botvak should only be taken D. All three of these models will cope with your squares, even if they were on the same floor.
Braava works under conditional supervision, like any robot with wet cleaning, in the audible zone or 15-20 minutes of visual control, this should also be taken into account when using robots with wet cleaning, the operator must be at hand.
Of course, it's worth taking a second base for each floor so that there is no downtime for the robot without charging.

[Medtech]

Medtech, Sergey, thank you. Everything will be under supervision. I propose to transfer Braavu from room to room. I have already read your advice about the second base. Botvak is just considering 85D. Do you think Omega should not be regarded as a vacuum cleaner and floor polisher, that is, you still need Braava to help her?

[Maryka]

MarykaI don’t know about Omega, it’s difficult for me to give advice on a robot that just fell into my hands.
So you still don't care to run the robot twice, once for dry cleaning, the second time for wet cleaning, which is Klebo, that Omega, that LV, and the Chinese don't care if they can drive onto the carpet - they will also wipe the carpet if they can.

Good afternoon, please advise which models to look at. Initial data:
1) Two-story house (90m2 -each floor- one day I will run on the top floor, another on the bottom)
2) 3) top. floor-kitchen-hall -45 m without a door passing into the hallway (total 55), studio-10m, toilet, pantry, stairs down. Lower floor - 3 bedrooms, toilet. room, pantry
4) 80% coverings - parquet, in bathrooms, closets - tiles, no carpet
5) there are no animals, but there are two children :-), rather big, but littering :-)
6) long-haired I am alone
7) it is also serving (based on this, I would like to have a fairly simple programming, no frills such as voice commands, etc.)
8) turned on and went to work, on the next. I moved the day to the lower floor and ... went to work :-)). The goal is to take out the main vacuum cleaner once a week
9) ready within reason, stairs, for example, are not ready to barricade :-)), tape magnet. or lighthouses, if it's not difficult to deal with them, then yes.
10) about 500 euros
I don't know if it will affect the choice, but the purchase will not be in Russia (we live in Europe).
thanks in advance

[OlgaRy]

OlgaRy, Botvak D, Neato XV can be found, Mile RX-1 or iKlebo Arte - but there are not very good nuances about stairs, you should carefully read the instructions when buying, it differs in different countries and, accordingly, different cases of warranty.
You can, of course, rumba 7xx, 8xx, series, but the open area is large and there are many rooms below, a robot with navigation or building a map is desirable, you can look at the LV with large numbers, but like Millet, it is better to clean iKlebo during the daytime.
In any situation, it is worth buying a second base so as not to twist with wires and not leave the robot without charging after cleaning for a long time.

Medtech, thank you very much, took me to study :-)

[Medtech]

Medtech, good day! And you can express your opinion about Philips 8820, please. Now in MVideo there is a big discount for it, the reviews are good. I wanted to take him to help my Rumba 780. House 180kv, one floor, no animals, rugs only near the bed. Laminate flooring and tiles. My daughters and I are long-haired.

[Medtech]

Medtech, Sergey, my Lg VRF3043LS robot will be 3 years old in December. She is happy to work, but recently she began to notice that she collects or sucks in less dust. I wanted to buy a new filter, but nothing came out on request on the Internet. Or is there another reason?

[Tatoshenka]

Tatoshenka, This is an ordinary Chinese robot, only plastic is a little better, you only have room-by-room cleaning with such a robot, you locked the robot in the room if it is no more than 25m for 30-50 minutes and then moved or kicked off to another room, there are no miracles, you need a robot with navigation or cartography, Rumba cannot cope with such an area even with lighthouses, only if you divide the areas or turn off the base after launch, then the robot will work much longer until full discharge, but this is not a panacea either.
How often do you launch Rumba?

[Sergei]

Sergei, many thanks for the answer and recommendations.
I rarely start Rumba, it takes a very long time to remove it, and one charge is not enough.

[francevna]

francevnaHow long have you changed the filter?

[Medtech]

Medtech, I have never changed the filter and cannot find it on sale. I clean it with a vacuum cleaner lg compressor.

[francevna]

francevnaIt is probably necessary to open the robot and clean it inside, since the fan is inside the robot and air is thrown into the robot, then everything is usually overgrown with dust, and the filter of course should be changed, but there may well be another problem, usually a complex of problems.

[Medtech]

Medtech, but you can open it yourself or carry it to a service center.

Sergey, how are your impressions of Omega?

[francevna]

francevnawill you be fined for this? Or is the warranty still running? look for a video of the disassembly of your robot and open it, you still need to clean it, if it's scary, send it in, transport companies now carry it very inexpensively and quickly, the last robots were sent for repairs from Krasnoyarsk and Komsomolsk-on-Amur, but here only the Russian Post ...

[Medtech]

Medtech, Sergei. First impressions of Omega are positive. Yesterday they let me into the hall and two rooms, one of which has carpet. Vacuuming for 85 min, including about 25 min in turbo mode. He carefully tidied everything, knocked down quite a bit, sees obstacles very well, did not run into the curtains. I got a little confused in the second room, started driving diagonally. In the process he butted the base, but at the end of the work he returned to it and parked correctly.

[Maryka]

MarykaAnd I have no doubt that most of the owners of robots are satisfied with the purchase, run it often, the robot is designed for daily cleaning, your assistant will have a long life.

Sergey, hello!
Please help me to choose my assistant for auto cleaning.
here is the initial data
1.100m, apartment
2. 3 rooms
3.20m
4. Mainly laminate, tiles in the kitchen, bathroom and at the entrance, in one room a synthetic carpet 3n5m with a short pile.
A corridor in the shape of the letter L, elongated, from which there is an exit to the kitchen, bathroom and 3 rooms.
warm floors are nowhere to be found.
5. no
6. Two
7.I will be myself
8. For daily dry cleaning.
9. ready
10. Up to 50 in case the vacuum cleaner itself will, in my absence, clean up the garbage in the whole apartment with high quality. I would like to have a guaranteed reliable device that has already proven itself better.
or if there is no such guarantee, please advise which vacuum cleaner is good for room-by-room cleaning in my case. Accordingly, the budget for this option will be lower.

Botvak D, Rumba 9xx, everything else is still with a lesser degree of reliability, Omega is good, but it can be recommended in six months on such areas. With a carpet, it will definitely be cleaned in two times with intermediate charging, and this, in my opinion, is a decrease in the consumer qualities of the robot, despite the maximum vacuum among others.

Sergey, thank you for your prompt reply! Everything is clear about rumba, but I will read and learn about the botvak.

Added Wednesday 28 Sep 2016 11:08 AM

Well, subjectively, it seemed that there was more negativity. They write that it is too gentle and so on. Probably rumba.
My question is, in Moscow, official dealers have such a service to take the Rumba 980 robot for a test with a certain payment, and then buy it back or return it?

Good day! Sergey, help me with choosing a robot. I have been reading the forum for a long time, during this time some models have already ceased to be released))) Here are my answers to your 10 questions:
1. The area of ​​the apartment? 70 sq. m
2. Number of rooms? 3 + large entrance hall
3. Size of the largest room or combined space? 25sq. m
4. The composition of the coatings? laminate, linoleum, carpet in one room (still Soviet, the pile is small as I understand it)
5. The presence of animals and which ones? German Shepherd
6. The presence of long-haired with a hair length of more than 25cm? I
7. Who will service the robot (clean, empty the bin, watch)? Me or husband
8. How do you imagine the work of a robot? Most likely, each room will be cleaned separately. High thresholds, I doubt that he will be able to overcome them himself - he will need to endure. The most important thing is cleaning your pet's fur ...
9. Are you ready to adjust the apartment for robotic cleaning? I know about cleaning cables from his path. but here they are all hidden
10. Budget? [/ Quote] preferably 25-30 thousand, max 35

I bought myself a Kitfort KT-519-1 vacuum cleaner 🔗

We did not have a relationship with the rumba and scuba, but we took them from among the first, maybe they were imperfect then. They quickly broke down ... And I don't want them anymore yet. Thank you!

[AlisaG]

AlisaG, Neato Botvac. As an option, China, after 2 years a new PS: Sergei almost never comes here.

[AlisaG]

AlisaG, now it's better to Omega.

I didn't like Botvak. Rumba 555 cleared much cleaner. Of course, he had to be moved from room to room, but you could be sure about the quality of the cleaning. And Botvak's side brush, in my opinion, is made only for show, there is little practical use for it. And the vaunted navigation in my 170 meters suffered a complete fiasco.
