Absolutely terrible. For as much as this thing costs I expected it to work much, much better
these are the reasons why I am returning my vacuum
- It can't "see" underneath my coffee table which is arguably the spot where I need vacuuming the most
- It errors out at least 3 times every time it runs. I got this thing to automate cleaning not so I can have something to babysit
- I have tile floors and a few rugs around the house. Sometimes it sees the rugs as obstacles and won't clean them even though the rugs are less than a centimeter off the ground
- Sometimes when it starts it spins in a complete circle at least 3 times which knocks the charging base out of alignment. When it's done it doesn't have anywhere to return to which is quite frustrating
- I set the robot to start at 1pm every day so it has daylight to help it clean. For some reason it starts at 5pm and at this time of year 5pm gets dark which doesn't help the robot. This is not something that I think the average consumer should have to figure out. It should just work at the right time. This is very easy to correct especially when the only way to schedule the robot is through the app. Use the phone to get the correct time zone for christ sake!
- The top of the robot is flat except for in one spot where the laser thing pops out about a half inch. I don't understand this design. They basically created a spot on the robot for all of your furniture to cling on to. What the heck, did they not notice this in the labs? So dumb
- The dust tray get filled up so fast and it's a pain to clean. It has these crevices near the filter where all the dirt gets stuck. It's not fun having to clean out a dusty tray every other time this thing runs
I really wanted to like this irobot and really could use the services this thing advertises. Unfortunately, this thing is a complete rip off. It needs to be several hundred dollars less to justify purchasing. I'm super disappointed with this thing :(
