Rumba - robot vacuum cleaner for dry cleaning

Please answer, what is the maximum volume it captures garbage? with a pea with a 50-kopeck coin

and will tighten a pea and a coin.
What can fit into it in size will tighten. I once completely "ate" the cord from the charger.

wow !!! Wow!!! it all seemed to me that he only cleans up after cleaning with a broom, for example. Thank you!

No. It cleans much better than a broom and instead of a broom, but a newspaper on the floor or a bag will be an obstacle. A very crowded room, especially if there is something in the middle, not very good. He will clean, but he may not be able to cope with it once. Or you have to run it literally every day). Then there will be cleanliness)) My sister came to visit and asks, when did you wash the floor? I remembered, remembered and say, somewhere a week ago.))) She is in shock. I, he says, do not have such purity, although mine every other day.
This is how my Rumbik works.

thanks for the congratulations to everyone! I am also very happy, God forbid that it works without breakdowns! tomorrow he will work in his son's room, and there are just heaps of work!

if the dust is knocked to shreds, then it will be worse to clean. the gap is clogged there. it is better to empty the container twice a cycle.

I share my impressions ... I got a very smart Zhorik. I charged it for 16 hours, then dragged it to my son's room, so that there would be dust deposits ... I worked there for 40 minutes ..))), I see, well, he didn't have such purity in his life !!!, but he still works for you, everything pisses off, then, opened the door to the corridor for him. He ran there, and even though we had cleaned there the day before, he still drove there for about 20 minutes, swore, glowed blue .. Grumbled at our family, and then I let him into the hall, he also "plowed" there for about 40 minutes. the linoleum was already shiny, but the carpet was definitely clean, just like after my powerful HYLA vacuum cleaner. Then I got tired of looking at him, I went to cook .. I hear my boyfriend is silent, I go in, looking for him, well, as in childhood I was looking for children .. No under the sofa, no behind the aquarium, no behind the curtains .., I started to worry, I turn my head , and he sits on the charge, eats .. I didn’t expect that he would find it the first time, I didn’t believe, especially since many said that he didn’t find it the first time .. And I didn’t put the base in the most prominent place. The dogs, after he ripped out his son's room and the corridor, stopped reacting to him altogether, fell asleep .. And the Frenchwoman slipped down and lay down on the carpet, and still did not notice that Zhorik, that is the name of our assistant, knocked her a couple of times on the side .. It rides softly, gets out of the wires, it’s not stuck anywhere, but it doesn’t buzz annoyingly, it seems to me that I could sleep peacefully under it .. Well, no comparison with the noise of an ordinary vacuum cleaner can be made .. And you can watch TV. . I looked))) What else? several times I threw dust out of the collections, I thought that if it was the first time, it would be better to play it safe, and 2 times I cleaned the brushes for the same reasons. I have no men at home, my son drove off for the weekend to visit relatives, I coped with everything myself .. There was no spare part .. And this is given that I am a humanist, that is, with technology, not exactly "you", but with yours. Uhh, well, just an essay ..
The thing is good and if there are funds, with a strong desire, they are suddenly found - you will not regret it .. Mine is without bells and whistles, and everything went well .. A necessary thing in the household, like a washing machine, dishwasher and refrigerator

Tell me, does the rumbo clean up until it becomes clean from his point of view? And then, as in my opinion, it's already clean and he tries everything ... I turn it off and carry it to others.the room, nk ilm I open the door and he runs to explore new territories ...

so I kick out mine from time to time ... or else I'm trying so hard on some patch, trying so hard that I feel sorry for him! but if I give him only one room "to be plundered", then he decides for himself, so he drives to the base, to eat

.. A necessary thing in the household, like a washing machine, dishwasher and refrigerator

And how ... * and another list of 35 points * ...

And my Kuzya is constantly stuck in the same place on the first floor. And sits there, puffs. The husband said that he had a rookery there and that he was hiding from work. Literally after 20 minutes of starting work, he rushes there and gets stuck there tightly.

[Rumba 560]

For 3 days now, our family is a happy owner Rumba 560... There is no limit to joy, we vacuum almost around the clock. But today I was twirling a box from under Rumba in my hands and found the inscription in small letters:
this product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and / or birth defects or other reproductive harm
Google translated that This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and / or birth defects and other reproductive harm ... It scared me very much. There is a cancer patient in the house. And a 3 year old child. The vacuum cleaner is right in the room where we sleep with the baby. In Google, I did not find a word about such a problem. Who can say anything about this, develop my fears! I don't want to throw out Rumbik!

It seems to me that we are talking about the composition of the battery, there may be some harmful heavy metals (mercury, cadmium, lead ..) - it depends on the type of battery. for example, a nickel cadmium (NiCd) battery contains cadmium.
in the rumba it seems to be a nickel-metal hydride battery (Ni-MH), it is considered environmentally friendly ...
and this is probably all related to the problems of disposal, not domestic consumption? no?

Here's how I could - so I took a picture, all the text did not fit. At the very bottom in small letters.

🔗

Tell me it's not true or I misunderstood !!!

As I understand it, "Contains chemicals known in the State of California to cause cancer ..." and so on according to your translation. Apparently in California some very specific research was carried out. BUT it is not specified in what quantity, therefore, it does not bear any informational load, IMHO. If the device could cause such horrors, who would have allowed it to be used? And all kinds of warnings are written to protect against all kinds of lawsuits, otherwise the tobacco company can, it turns out, be sued millions for lung cancer. In addition, microwaves and mobile phones are also, according to numerous reports, a terribly harmful technique ... just something their sales are growing at a frantic pace

By the way, car batteries also contain heavy metals. Every day we come across various devices that run on batteries, the composition of which we do not even think about.
Rumba battery - the same batteries, there is nothing wrong with them, if you do not break them

Everyone is asking to stop panic!
Dear forum users - there is nothing wrong with robots, they are no more harmful than a coffee maker.
Yes, there are chemicals in batteries, which I do not recommend to swallow, but they are harmless by themselves.

Such batteries are found in radiotelephones (tubes), radio-controlled toys, and more. other products around us!
So don't panic.

Ayrobot, for example, takes certification and safety very seriously. All elements and parts are harmless, as well as a battery if it is not broken and boiled in soup.
Don't worry.

TV, mobile - much more harmful to humans.

As soon as I typed a hefty message that the panic was canceled, Andrey appeared!
Andrey, for such frightened buyers like me, it would not hurt to write: "Please do not touch the BATTERY, as it can cause cancer ..." and further in the text.How do you think? And then first comes the text, what a cool kid he is, this vacuum cleaner, and then in small letters that it can cause cancer, and not a word about the battery. So you can earn heart attack and stroke in one bottle.

Here I read you and want-want-want !!! Girls and boys, are there any owners of a vacuum cleaner from Belarus here ?? I was looking for it in Minsk, but our prices are staggering. An official dealer in Belarus has 531-470 euros, with a discount by March 8, 400 euros, and 555-590 euros, with a discount by March 8, 520 euros. In my environment, no one knows or even heard about such a wonderful assistant.

Good day!
Uraaa: girl_skakalka: I found it, that is, we have an online store where such a miracle is sold. Now I have this miracle of technology for everyone. I need your help, what model to buy. I looked at the 780 model, or maybe it's easier. I have five rooms (about 90 m2). There is also a cat, but does not live with us all the time. What do you advise?

I chose for a long time, many of whom do not even recommend a large apartment with newcomers .. I took the simplest one, well, I like it very much while I cook and clean in the room, and in the corridor, and lastly I send this miracle to my daughter, there it fizzles out, and I carry it to the base, and when you just need it in the hall and in the corridor, he runs to the base himself ..)))

I have 564. It has not movement coordinators, but limiters. Sometimes I wonder what would be better with coordinators (this model is more expensive). Because a robotic with movement limiters is removed in a room of 20 m for about 40 minutes, it can drive several times in the same place. It can be annoying sometimes when you need a quick cleaning. And with the coordinators of the movement, he distributes his move so that the second time he does not go to the same place and cleans the same room, as it is written in the passport, in 25 minutes. When I told my daughter-in-law about this (she also plans to buy a robik), she replied that when she vacuums the room, she can also go through the same place several times, so this is not bad, and it is not worth overpaying for coordinators. In principle, I agree with her. And it's up to you to decide!

Huge greetings to everyone from Kaliningrad, for a month now I have been madly wanting a robot for myself, soon it’s my birthday and I decided that this is what I need, but my husband hasn’t spoken out yet, I’ll buy it myself, otherwise I’ll imagine that 30 minutes will have to explain what it is not a toy, as I need it, but he will give me a dozen examples of useless purchases, in the end he will prohibit buying, and then I will present it with a fact. A couple of years ago I heard about this, but I thought it was nonsense, but after reading your reviews I now want with terrible force. Unfortunately, I did not find sellers in Kaliningrad, buying in America is certainly much cheaper, and in Germany it is even closer, but I have never encountered purchases abroad, so I will have to order from the capital, but I can’t decide on the model.
I WANT, of course, 780 or double diabot, but it is not possible because temporarily on maternity leave and the income in the family is one, and I really want to program and work in our absence with the children, otherwise the children are small, naughty, they will start climbing on it. there is laminate on the floor everywhere, but since he cleans carpets with pleasure I will put the carpet, I just cleaned everything so that I would not vacuum with a large one, but only wash the floors, even removed the rug in the bathroom, I was tortured to collect everything from him. no animals, long hair, 60 squares. which to choose? tell me pliz

[Pussy willow]

Pussy willowWhy do you need programmable? Or do you know in advance what day you will leave the house for? You can just press the button before leaving the house and leave. The robot cleans, the children walk, the money is saved. As an option

Programmable, IMHO, is needed for working busy people: they are always not at home at the same time, and you will not forget to turn it on when leaving home in a hurry. We took 551 only because of the air tank - the filtration is better and the container itself as a whole.

[Pussy willow]

Pussy willowWhy do you need programmable? Or do you know in advance what day you will leave the house for? You can just press the button before leaving the house and leave. The robot cleans, the children walk, the money is saved. As an option

It's just that I go to work in two months (the children will be three years old), so I know in advance that I will be loaded and this function will be very necessary, by the way, a good filter will not hurt us either, our dad is asthmatic, but since we live like ordinary people, I wash the floors every other day because of children, sometimes we vacuum the furniture with a karcher, and in our city we only have karcher 40 thousand robots, but this is expensive and cumbersome and not beautiful and, according to reviews, works very little in time. By the way, in the near future, moving to a large area, so I think it might be better to save up for 770 or 780, if you use it first on your 60 meters, I wanted to ask, after all, for the correct operation of the battery, you probably need to discharge it to the end, but if you use it on a small square, he will drive me until acc. the charge will not end, or will he understand that he has tidied everything up and will go to rest at the base?

Tell me, do the 521 and 531 differ only in the bundle?
551 not found on irobot sites? only 555.
I wanted to ask the happy owners of 564 models for animals if they have something to compare with, whether it is necessary to shake out the container after each cleaning if it is larger than that of other models and cleaning will take place every day, and accordingly there will be relatively little garbage + there are no animals, but on the other hand I shed all year round.
And one more question for the connoisseurs who have rumba of the 7th series, it is true that they move around the house more confidently than the others, I just saw the videos on the Internet tests, so they could control them and the remote control.
By the way, who has a house on an alarm system with motion sensors, you can't leave the robot in your absence, will the alarm go off?

551 not found on irobot sites? only 555.

This is 550 only with an aerial vehicle, such 🔗

By the way, who has a house on an alarm system with motion sensors, you can't leave the robot in your absence, will the alarm go off?

I think yes, the alarm will go off.

564 - it will be necessary to clean (shake out the container) every time if the animals are fleecy-fluffy. and Once a few days, clean the brushes.

770 \ 780 really move better - there are more recent algorithms.
I now have 770 living at home for more than 1.5 months - a great robot !!!
780 - for those over 100 sq. M.

Alarms (many) can be adjusted to the volume (so that they do not work, for example, on a cat, but on a person - these are already settings)

I didn’t find 550 or 551 on sale, whether they were removed or not for Russia, it turns out that there are gray ones, there are a lot of offers, as I understood from the official representatives a limited number of models and strictly set prices, I found int. store in Moscow there prices are 2, 5-3 thousand less, even somehow scary, probably gray.
The 531 and 555 have too large a price gap just because of the cleaning programming, so there would be an intermediate model: girl_claping:

Good evening! I'd like to hear a specialist's answer. Rumba521 will appear in my house tomorrow. I've been reading the topic for two days, but some questions remained unanswered. When will it arrive, how can it be checked? Turn on and so that he immediately drove to the base and at 16 o'clock? And I still don't understand: I want to start cleaning from a small room, in which there is 4 square meters of free space. Here he will clean up there, and then what? Will he somehow go to another room or should he be taken there? I apologize for the stupid questions, but this is the first time I will meet a robot. :

Of course, I am also an amateur, but it seems that if the door is not closed from 4 meters, then the love will get out, I read that it is better if he gets off the base and starts cleaning from there, then it is easier for him to return later.

Thank you. Can I take it and bring it closer to the base when it finishes cleaning? I'm afraid he'll get lost in the corridors.

When he decides that he has removed these 4 meters, he will go to the exit himself. But you must understand that it will take longer than you have with a vacuum cleaner. And when he goes to the exit, close the door behind him so that he doesn't come back.

Thank you. Can I take it and bring it closer to the base when it finishes cleaning? I'm afraid he'll get lost in the corridors.

Well, do the corridors also need to be cleaned? You can help him by cutting off the cleaned spaces. I will not argue, but IMHO, if you wear it, it is more likely to lose orientation.

I didn’t find 550 or 551 on sale, whether they were removed or not for Russia

I am from Kiev It is quite possible that we and you are officially transported different models.

This is how Felix works for me. First, I close it in one room. He will finish cleaning there and give a signal. Then I turn it off completely and move it to another room, I also close the doors. But if time is limited, then I open the doors to two rooms and he removes them at the same time, this is a little faster. But on the other hand, when he is closed in one room, he cleans this room more thoroughly. One charge (I have a completely new Felix) is enough for a hall (17 m), a corridor (tiny) and a kitchen (6 m), but only if the doors are open there. If the doors from the corridor to the kitchen are closed, then there is enough charge for the hall and the kitchen. There is no longer any left on the corridor. But very often I do not let him clean up to the end, I move him to another room. However, the room is clean. Then you will orient yourself on the operating modes, based on experience.

Andrey, what do you think of Neato? I have Rumba 561, I'm happy. More area for cleaning will appear soon, and he cleans slowly. What do you think, buy 780 or the aforementioned robot? He allegedly has a much higher speed, the shape is so round-square. Girls, can anyone have such a vacuum cleaner, share your opinion.

For some reason this robot was criticized 3 years ago, but maybe something has changed, I can’t tell you that I didn’t like it, it was just imprinted in my memory while reading about the scuba, and somehow it was said in a masculine way.

definitely sell to good people 561 and take 780
Yes, I also wanted to ask, I read that the 564 model has an order of magnitude less noise than the rest of the previous ones, is it so?

Yes, I also wanted to ask, I read that the 564 model has an order of magnitude less noise than the rest of the previous ones, is it so?

Are Rumbas noisy? Somehow I didn’t think about it, I imagined that they were crawling so quietly ..

In my opinion, they are not noisy at all. Well, it is clear that being in the same room with him is unpleasant to watch TV, but so ... I often turn on at night in the next room - it does not interfere with sleep.

I heard that the sound is much quieter than a regular vacuum cleaner, but I read that with the 564 model it is even quieter, maybe it doesn’t matter to someone, but I’m using the zelmer meat grinder as an example, I can say that I use it calmly when children sleep behind the same door. they will react, and if they wake up my twins earlier than they should, then they will arrange me in two throats, and I myself would like not to annoy. I choose between 555 and 564, so I don’t know much if the last filter and brushes are better, if there are no animals, does it mean that I will empty it less often with a large container, but there are constantly finely torn pieces of paper, and my hair, and of course this constantly multiplying the dust that lies on my dark laminate, and when the sun began to peep through the window: the situation is actually a nightmare, and these crumbs that stick to my feet are horror!
Someone will advise you from these programmable ones, otherwise you need to order as soon as possible to please yourself by your birthday

I have 564. I can only say that cleaning the container of the vacuum cleaner is no problem at all. Opening and shaking it into a bag is a matter of one minute. I clean the brushes after about 3-4 cleanings, which is also no problem. Here they need to pry off with a special knife that is attached to the vacuum cleaner. But - this is also a matter of 3 minutes, especially since they do not wind up every time. But, after cleaning the vacuum cleaner, you have to go to the shower to rinse, because the dust will still settle on your body a little, unfortunately. I was also afraid of cleaning the vacuum cleaner and bought 564 because of the cat. It comes with one regular container, one for animal hair, a set of spare brushes, including a side one, and main and spare filters - one for a regular container, the second for a container for wool. I have not used a regular container yet. I use it for wool. When the container is full, I pour it into a bag, take out the filter, put in a spare filter, and clean the main filter, rinse it with water and dry it. Then, after the next cleaning, I change them. Very handy with spare filters. And I repeat, there is absolutely no problem with cleaning the vacuum cleaner. It takes 3-4 minutes.

About the sound. My Felix works, of course, not quietly, but you can watch the TV at a little more than average volume while it is working, and when a regular vacuum cleaner is working, then even the doorbell is not heard. I do not know. whether it is quieter than other models, there is nothing to compare.

After the first 20 hours of charging, I turned on my Barsik. What a fine fellow he is! I absolutely love it! Only emotions. I went through all the nooks more than once, swept out of every crack. From the wire that lay on the road (it cannot be removed), he skillfully got out. And when I removed the rug from the floor, he returned to this place, and let's clean it again. Cleaning area 4 meters. Was cleaned for 15 minutes. And then he went to the base. Could it be that the door to the room was closed and he decided that the work was finished? I'm waiting for the orange button to stop blinking. and send it further.

I continue on. After 15 minutes of charging, Barsik mewed that he was ready to go again. I launched him along the same route, only I opened the door to the hall from the room, as well as to another room and to the kitchen. Here he worked for an hour and a half, drove back and forth, I myself stopped him so that the floor would not be wiped down to holes. Sent to clean up the hallway. It is small and limited by high sills. Then he cleaned for about 15 minutes, squeaked that the cleaning was over. In my opinion, the charge has not yet come out. Well, okay, I'll clean it up and send it to rest. In general, I am absolutely delighted! It is difficult to call it a vacuum cleaner. Barsik is Barsik. He certainly has intelligence. I already want to buy him a pair of Scuba. I will save.

Congratulations on such a wonderful purchase !!! Write to us all-all-all. Now I also think whether I need him or not. Although I want it terribly. As I understand it, this is not really a vacuum cleaner? Can I have a couple of questions?

1. Does he collect garbage with a scoop brush? This is how it works, right?
2. Is there a need to vacuum after it at least occasionally? What is the cleaning quality? In the corners, for example?
3. Will he be able to take the long pile of the carpet?
4. If there are animals, will he collect wool?

Girls, who has experience in using an electric broom and a robot, is their principle of operation the same or not? I just have an electric broom, it collects garbage well, but the wool flies more on the sides. Because of the dog (wool) + the private sector (sand on the paws) and I want to buy it. Do you think she can handle it? I will use it every day.

A broom is a broom. And rumba is a vacuum cleaner. He also has a suction system for the brush.

And, in principle, there are answers to your questions in this topic. We have not discussed so much here already in terms of points. Read it. Maybe you will find something interesting for yourself.

[Lenny]

Lenny, buy, you will not regret it. The quality of cleaning is beyond praise. Nothing scatters from him, he sucks everything in. And in the corners too, if he can get through there.I don’t know about long pile, the instructions say, cleans carpets with short pile, cleaned it like I could never clean it with an ordinary vacuum cleaner. It seems to me that in a long pile, his brushes will get confused. I think I should collect the wool. I also knit the wool from the threads on the carpet, fibers cm 3, similar to cat's hair. So he collected with a bang!

[Soneyka]

I have not used a regular container yet. I use it for wool.
Soneyka, did I understand correctly that both containers do not work for him at once, but only one, for example, you put a big one during the animal's molting period? I thought that both at the same time in one wool gets into the other dust. tell him he will not choke on pieces of paper torn 5 by 5 cm

Why should they rebel. I organized such a cute mink for my Barsik under the table. She threw all the things that were there from the room, just to make him feel good.

Hello everyone!
I apologize for not appearing regularly, if you have urgent questions - please write to robot @ 1- and you will be answered within a day. or call 8-499-340-90-60

I will answer the last questions and what I managed to remember on the topic:

1) Batteries are designed for the robot to work in all modes, including when the robot does not completely discharge the battery - it's not a big deal. So don't worry.
For most types of batteries (except for lithium polymer), it is scary when they are not fully charged - in this case, they lose capacity, but as a rule, after several full charge cycles, they completely restore it.
So use it as conveniently as possible - the main thing is to let the robot fully charge !!!

2) On sale you can find unofficial models or models 2-3 thousand cheaper - these are gray counterfeit supplies. To buy or not - everyone decides for himself. The main question is to remain without a guarantee or buy a counterfeit with a defect.
Official robots are tested and reliable. Among the grays, I heard about a large number of problems. I do not know exactly what this is connected with. Sometimes with the fact that robots are sold to us intended for a different electrical network and there they simply change or re-solder the power supplies, but the problems then surface!

3) The noise of the entire 5th series is approximately equal. It is difficult to assess the noise - everything is subjective. But it is small, the child can sleep in the next room behind a closed door. Watching TV in one room is already interfering. But the noise is not comparable to the hum of a conventional vacuum cleaner.

4) 555 - in addition to programming, it also removes a large area.
The entire line is built by Ayrobot in such a way that with a higher model it increases: price, equipment, functions and volume of area to be harvested.

5) 564 is one of the best modjelles among the fifth series Rumba in my opinion. This is due to the presence of the Aerowak container - it is better!
Therefore, apparently in the seventh series (770 \ 780) only he is used.
Yours faithfully,
Andrei

From what I understood about robots, I think it will stop.

Episode 8 is simply obliged to go down the stairs and go to the base

[Soneyka]

I have not used a regular container yet. I use it for wool.
Soneyka, did I understand correctly that both containers do not work for him at once, but only one, for example, you put a big one during the animal's molting period? I thought that both at the same time in one wool gets into the other dust. tell him he will not choke on pieces of paper torn 5 by 5 cm

Yes, only one container is put - either a regular one or for wool. As for the pieces of paper, I don't know for sure, I try to check before cleaning so that the paper or cellophane bag does not accidentally fall, because once he almost pulled the bag into himself, barely managed to snatch it out. And in the subject they wrote that there were a lot of pieces of paper in the nursery and the vacuum cleaner almost broke down, so I try to be careful, I check the area before cleaning, I don't want to risk it.

and to 555 or 564 models if you buy 2-in-1 wall beacons will they work with them or only to 581?

Can this Aerovac container be bought separately and shoved into the 581?
