I have had my robot friend, Simon, for a week. First impressions upon opening the box was an “Oooo Aahhh”. The directions said to let your new robot friend charge overnight before first use, but of course, I ran him around immediately to just see how he works! He worked for about ten minutes. I couldn’t figure out how to get him to his home (charging station), but it turns out, he can find his own way home just fine. I recommend that you do take a few minutes to read the directions and familiarize yourself with the remote. It took about 4 hours or so for Simon to fully charge, then I turned him loose. Let me just say, I thought my floors were clean, or, at least, pretty clean. As it turns out, they were not. They were not clean at all. Simon has picked up so much fur, dirt, dust, it’s unbelievable. My floors have literally never looked better! They are CLEAN. For real clean. I’ve always had a hard time cleaning under the bed, but now I don’t have to worry about it at all, because my robot friend takes care of it. I have all hardwood floors and tile. I also have a few throw rugs, some thick, some thin. Simon does a perfect job on the floors, and has no problems navigating over the throw rugs (though he might turn up a corner, but he will run back over it and still get it clean). I don’t think your robot friend would work very well if you have a lot of or mostly carpet. If you have hardwood or mostly hardwood, you will love your new robot friend. Simon mostly gets from room to room okay – the “up” entry points he cannot do on his own. For example, he cannot get over the hump into my kitchen, but he can get down the hump. He also cannot get over the hump to get in the bathrooms. This is actually fine for me, because I prefer to control when he goes into the kitchen anyway so that I can shake off the rugs and/or pick up the cat food and water bowls and any shoes or other things that might be on the floor. I just put a bar stool in his way to keep him from exiting the kitchen when it’s time for him to clean in the kitchen. Simon will clean for about 3 or 3.5 hours. He does not have a “plan” so to speak, not like a person would say go from corner to the center of the room, but he is still very thorough, and obviously, his plan is way better than mine since my floors are so much cleaner than they ever were when I was in charge. My advice is to just trust the process and let your robot friend find his way around on his own! Just make sure that you pick up any cords, especially small cords like phone charging cords, and shoe laces or the like, so that he doesn’t accidentally grab onto something he shouldn’t. Simon also has sensors so that when he comes to a piece of furniture or a wall, he will slow down so as to gently bump it before he turns off into a new direction. I have also noticed that if he comes into contact with a chair or table leg, he will often go in a circle all the way around the leg to clean around it. Once your robot friend is done doing your dirty work for you, he will go back home on his own. If your robot friend cannot find his way home, you may not have provided him enough space. Is that any way to treat your new best friend?? Make sure that he has several feet of clear space in front of his charging station, and that there are a few feet of clear space on the sides of the charging station as well. Also, make sure to empty out his dust bin after every use. One of the fortunate side effects of having my new robot friend, is the “give a mouse a cookie” effect it seems to have had. Give a person a clean floor, and the person may say oh, it looks so clean in here, let me pick up this shirt and put it away. The person then notices that the bathroom trash can is full; since the floors look so nice, the bathroom should be clean, too *cleans bathroom*, and so on. The only thing about my new robot friend, which isn’t enough to bother me at all, is that he is, well, he’s not super loud, but he’s not very quiet either. So, if you are watching tv, you may need to turn it up just a bit if you are running your robot friend while you’re at home. Well worth it for the service he provides, though. Overall, I do recommend this little robot. I am very pleased with this purchase. If you’re in the market for a robot floor cleaning wizard, don’t hesitate to click that Buy Now button.

I was pretty skeptical and didn't want to break the bank on something that might suck. Reviews on this product were great, and now I see why! It's not the most amazing I'm sure, but at this price point, I'm ecstatic! Two males, a dog, and an old cat that sheds more than Big Foot and this thing keeps my floors darn clean! I hate vacuuming, I hate sweeping, I hate chores honestly, and this does that for me. It's a bit random in it's tracking, and I'm still learning how it works, but so far it works just fine. A little loud, but it's a vacuum, why wouldn't it be? My pets don't seem to mind it and it handles transitions from hardwood to carpets VERY well. This bad boy even rides up the side of one of my fans sometimes and I think it's going to get stuck but it gets itself off just fine. I wouldn't hesitate to buy this model at all. The controller is also pretty handy. Do yourself a favor and stop dealing with vacuuming all the time. Even though the thing spins around like an idiot sometimes, eventually it gets pretty much everything, even places you wouldn't think. ONE THING TO NOTE! Make sure your floors are clear of larger obects (pet toys, cables/wires, w/e else). It'll do fine with them, but sometimes will stop and avoid a large area or get stuck on a wire. I haven't had it suck up anything that I didn't want it to. Just gets stuck in the bristles a little bit. Will update my review if I have any issues! UPDATE-------- 6 months in, still fantastic. She's a bit overzealous and takes longer than I'd like to notice it's running stuff over, but it gets the job done still! One spinning brush got a bit messed up after running over a phone charger and wrapping around it (phone charger was undamaged and everything still functioned on the vacuum). It'll run over clothes and get stuck, but hey, it's not a maid, it's a vacuum. Sometimes it takes an extra pass to get everything, but still easier than doing it myself. Overall, I love it! My girlfriend got a Shark for her place after her mom bought it for her, and I swear mine is much better! It doesn't do as much random roaming and can actually find its way out of a corner without just going back and forth over and over again. Not sure if it does a better job cleaning up because her place is pristine most of the time, but I'd bet they're pretty similar. They do the exact same job but mine was $100 less, so really it comes down to longevity at this point, and I feel confident that mine will go long enough to justify paying almost half the price.

We're running two of these on the ground level of our house. One was purchased about a year ago, and works well enough at this price point that we ordered a second one. NOT having a wifi in these robots was a plus for us. Cell phones, TVs, and now newer cars already spy on us. I will not have vaccum cleaners, dish washers, refrigerators, etc., in my home spying on us too. Our thermostat does not have wifi capabilities. Damn corporations can keep their advertisements out of our house and away from our daughter. Government can suck it too. Yes, I'm one of those IT weirdos that runs a PiHole on my home network, blocks everything, etc. You should to. These iLife robots seem to be pretty 'dump'. Only comparison is that years ago we had a refurbished iRobot vacuum that we got at half-price (because it was a refurb) (these iLife robots we purchased new, not refurb, wanted to be clear). That iRobot last about four years. Batteries and these robot vacuums are better now, so these run longer per charge than that old iRobot. But...that early model iRobot would maintain a map of the house and could easily find its way back to the charger when it needed to. These things seem to bumble around the house in a completely random fashion cleaning, and when their batteries get low, they wonder around aimlessly looking for the charger. Most of the time they find their way, but not always. I work from home, and sometimes when I go upstairs for lunch, I'll find one cruising around lost looking for home. I'll use the remote to 'guide' it to the charger. These things seem to run for about 90 minutes on a charge. The first one is about a year older than the second one, and both seem to run for almost the exact same length of time. Hopefully that means the batteries are of a descent quality and will last a long time. The old iRobot I replaced the battery packs twice in four years. In the end that old faithful machine just got glitchy and we had to scrap it. Fingers crossed these iLife machines last longer due to advancements in technology. We'll see. Until I add an outlet to the laundry room, the two charging stations are sitting side-by-side in the guest bedroom. They must use reflectors to line themselves up with the charging stations while parking. Having the two chargers side-by-side confuses these things as they are trying to park. On occasion, when one is coming in to dock, if the other is already on a charging station, the incoming robot will go crash-up derby on the first one. On those occasions that I'm 'steering' a robot back to charge with the remote, I'll block its view of the other station with my feet so it will go to the one that I want it to. Seems to be a design flaw, but really likely a money saving decision. Keep in mind if you have multiples of these and place the charging stations next to one another, you can expect some problems. If you are easy going, then you'll be ok. If such things annoy you, try to place the chargers in separate rooms. If anything interrupts their job, say one gets stuck or tries to eat a sock, if you carry the stranded thing back to the charging station, you'll want to press the timer and the clock buttons on the remote again. Seems if they do not complete their task for any reason, they'll lose their programing for the next day. This is easy to do, using the remote to kind of 'reset' the programed start time and clock, but it was nowhere in the instructions. We figured it out through trial and error. I find the instructions to not be clear for clock time and programing a scheduled start time. Basically, you're looking at the remote to set the time and schedule a 'go' time, but the robots have to beep at you so you know they received the programing. You use the remote to see what you are doing, but if you are not within range of the robot while you are doing it, or pointing the remote away from the robots, they do not receive the instructions. Program your remote with clock time and start time. Then, point the remote in the general direction of the robots, and press the clock button twice (like you are going to set the time). The robot will beep with each button push as an audible confirmation that it received the message. Then do the same thing with the schedule button. Ours run at 9am so they can finish by the time I go upstairs for lunch. This way, I can rescue one if they get stuck or lost. Most of the time these guys cannot get over the transition strip between our bedroom floors and the bathroom tile floors; its a 'speed bump' that they usually cannot climb. On occasion they'll hit it just right and get into the bathroom (and then choke on trying to eat the bath rug). Know that they struggle with what I believe is something they should be able to get over. Replacement brushes are available. They don't cost the world, but I wish they were cheaper. The first robot needed a second set of new brushes at roughly the one-year mark. Note that they do come with an extra set of brushes, and we do appreciate that. Thanks iLife. Do NOT lose the little screw that secures the brushes. I'm a shade tree mechanic, and know to keep track of little fasteners, but I failed and lost one. Couldn't find a replacement anywhere. Tiny, close to 3mm in size, but an odd thread. We emailed iLife and asked about purchasing some, but they sent us two for free. Again, thanks iLife. Some amount of hair and dirt will find its way between the brushes and the body. Keep this area clean, and be sure to clean it out thoroughly when replacing brushes. We use the upright vacuum to clean the filter, and as a result they last well over a year easily. Since we have two of these that are about a year apart, I've noticed a difference in the software. The older one is easier to 'steer' with the remote; say I'm guiding it to the other end of the house at the start of its shift for example. The newer one will 'fight' me for control by immediately turning right after following my command to turn left. Very frustrating. As a software developer myself, I cannot understand why they would program it to do this. Me being stubborn and trying to 'best' a dump machine (I know, not a 'smart' move on my part), I keep telling it to turn left until after half-dozen times or so it finally stops fighting me. Almost as if it has to travel X distance before the programing just takes my input. I hope they fix this in later models. Not the 'smartest' robot, but at this price point, we went back to the well and purchased a second one. When we go for a third machine for the basement, I might try a different make or model. I miss the very old iRobot from years ago keeping track of where it had been and keeping a map of the house layout so that it would cover all of the floor, and so it could easily find its way back to the charger when low. These things are much cheaper now days, but seemingly way, way dumber than those that came before them. As long as you understand what you are getting, and can deal with the quirks, I can recommend this product. If you don't want to deal with lost robots wondering the house in search of a charger, or perhaps something that will simply and blindly follow your every command (with the remote), suggest you look for something else.

***08/07/2020 UPDATE*** I don't write a lot of reviews, but I had to come back and update this review from 4 stars to 5 stars. Is the vacuum perfect? No. But is it one of the best purchases I've ever made? Yes. For the money, this thing is a life changer. We haven't had to vacuum or sweep (except in corners and hard to reach places) since we bought it more than 2 years ago. For the most part it has run without issue. I change the dust bin every night (and knock the dust out of the filter), and clean and remove the pivot wheel and brushes occasionally as they can pick up some hair and fuzz. It has started acting a little strange where it won't run automatically after it's been powered off (I only power off if we go on vacation and can't empty the dust bin). But if I just adjust the schedule by an hour and then back to original time it seems to correct itself and run the next night per schedule. Anyway, there are fancier models with more features, but for hard surfaces and the price, I would buy this again in a heartbeat. I sometimes wish it would die so I could get one with a bigger dustbin - but now that I'm used to emptying it every night it's just part of my nightly routine. If you're looking for your first inexpensive robot vacuum - I can't recommend this one highly enough. ***09/05/2018 UPDATE*** I've now had the V3s Pro for 6 months and had to come back and upgrade my rating from 2 stars to 4 stars. This vacuum has proven to be so effective it has really improved our cleanliness around the house and I am constantly recommending this vacuum to friends and family. It is very noticeable when it hasn't run for a couple of days as the dog hair shows up on my dark floors. The vacuum still has a few issues - the dust bin is so small that it fills beyond capacity every night. We have a pile rug that sheds like crazy along with 2 dogs so there is no shortage of material for the vacuum to suck, but its a pain to have to empty the dust bin every night. My next robot vacuum will have a larger dust bin. Additionally you need to do a good job picking up the floor every night before it runs (also forces good habits). Shoes with long laces, dog toys, clothing, sloped lamp base, dog bowl - all will find a way to tangle or disrupt the vacuum. Also, I've gotten over the gripe I mentioned about the scheduling and charging. Yes, it's a dumb glitch or programming decision, but in reality it doesn't really matter since I just run the vacuum every night anyway. ***ORIGINAL REVIEW*** Only had the vacuum for 2 days but so far it seems to function well as a vacuum. However, there is an odd programming bug (or feature choice) on the remote that won’t let you cancel the schedule time. The included instructions state that the only way to keep the robot from running at a scheduled time is to turn it off with the power switch. Problem is, the instructions also state that the vacuum will only charge when the power switch is in the on position. Alternate instructions found online suggest that you can set the schedule time to 00:00 but this functionality is not available on the remote I received. Instead it just rolls from 12 to 1. Perhaps this was a safety feature to keep people from leaving it on the charger in a chargeable state for days or weeks without a discharge? Or it’s just an annoying bug in the remote programming. Either way, it’s an annoying situation. I now have to remember switch the robot off after it docks to make sure it doesn’t start by itself at the scheduled time, but if I switch it off when it docks it won’t charge. For the time being, I don’t trust it to just run unsupervised and prefer to start it when I’m available to keep an eye on it. Tried to reset the schedule to 00:00 and discovered that you can’t. It may be that if you never set the start time in the first place you won’t have this problem so keep that in mind as you set it up.

I've had this guy for about 7 months now. First six months, awesome. Ran for like two hours in my studio apartment before dying, picked up all the hair and dust bunnies. I ran it every day, because I live in a desert city and dust accrues VERY fast. For the last month, I've noticed that even fully charged, it runs WAY less before docking. I timed it today, it only ran for 15 minutes before needing to be recharged. I brought the inner lithium battery to a Batteries + Bulbs to check the voltage, and it's pretty low. Basically the capacity to recharge is depleting fast. I was like, "that can't be right, it's only 7 months old and lithium batteries should last at least a year, if not two years!" After chatting with the B+B guys, we're thinking that it sits docked too much, sitting there even when fully charged. Which is frustrating, after consulting the manual it says to leave it docked for "normal use" and only turn it off and undock it when it's not used for a long period of time. Using it nearly every day, I assumed I fell under the "normal use" category. But much like your smart phone or a laptop, if it stays plugged in after being fully charged too much, the rechargeable lithium battery will start to deplete its capacity to recharge. So now I'm half a year in with a dying robot. I'm going to buy a replacement battery, and NOT listen to the instructions, and in the evening when it's fully charged I'm going to turn it off and undock it for the night, and see if the lithium battery lasts longer than six months. But it's very frustrating to be so excited for a great little vacuum for my small apartment, and already need to buy a replacement battery (which is not included in the first year warranty, I checked and it specifically lists the battery dying in the "not included" column, very smart of them). I mean, they already have my money, so it's not like I can do anything about it. And when it works, it's a great little robot for a much lower price than big brand names. But some transparency with their product would be nice. Like I wish they had listed the expected life of the battery, or that overcharging it will deplete the life faster. You would buy this thinking it would at least last a year, like most robot vacuums, right? Maybe in six months I'll update my review, but even if this new method works, it's kind of obnoxious to have to do it. I didn't buy this vacuum to babysit it, I bought it because sweeping sucks and robot vacuums are supposed to be the easier option. If it dies again in six months with the new method, I'll probably look at a new vacuum from another company, because I can only find these batteries from this company, and I certainly don't want to continue giving them money for a poor quality product. tl;dr it was a great product until it wasn't

This robot vacuum has become such a vital step in my everyday routine. It is ran every day, twice. This vacuum has not only made my floors cleaner but help me organize and put everything back to where it belongs, dog toys, blankets, pillows, shoes, etc. Every morning I pick up clothes, dog toys, shoes, and anything else on the floor or under the bed. I run the vacuum until it dies in the bed room. It is a little loud so I wait till everyone is up and ready for the day so it can work without people being in the bedroom. My carpet is low/medium pile so it does a good job of getting all the top hair, dirt, etc from the carpet. However it will leave huge fuzzies from dog toys. But it will move them out from under the bed so I can pick it up easier. I would suggest if you have carpet that you do a deep suction vacuuming atleast once a month to get the deeper dirt, but overall it works awesome. I even noticed it smells cleaner and my dust headache went away. I actually sleep better and wake up more refreshed. It also leaves a pattern in the carpet so if you leave it unattended you can see exactly where it went, and it had gone everywhere. Even under the bed, dresser, and nightstand. Before it dies I run it in the small bathroom we have for 10-15 minutes, I shake out the bath mats, and let it clean all that dirt up before I lay them back down for it to run over. At night I run the vacuum around our open floor plan living and kitchen area. We don't have a table but an island that the vacuum can easily go under. I clean the island, put the chairs & garbage can on top, pick up the dogs dishes & toys, blankets, and pillows. I run the vacuum in that area space until it dies, since I go to bed I'm not sure how long it runs but it always finds the charging port and is ready for the morning run fully charged. I noticed that if you turn off the lights under the couch it can get stuck since it's so dark so I put a small night light back there so it can "see". It goes under my ottoman as well. Since it's low pile carpet and hard flooring there is no pattern to check and see if it got anything but I have not noticed any areas where it has not gone. Definitely make sure you can pick up all that you can so it has more access. After each clean I empty the dust bin to see how much it collected. It only takes a minute and I like seeing each rooms progress. I'm always surprised on the amount it picks up since I run it every day. If you have bigger spaces or more rooms I would suggest making a schedule to do rooms every other day. Or get one for each floor, as they are cheaper than sharks, roombas etc. and is good quality. If you have built in carpet all over I would try the deep suction vacuum. I have a mix of tile, vinyl ( I think), and carpet. So the mop was not worth it. THIS VACUUM GOT DOG FOOD STAINS OUT OF MY LOW PILE CARPET. This vacuum could be your only vacuum if you have hard flooring and low pile carpet.

I don't think I can begin without first saying... Where has this little guy been my entire adult life? Seriously my fellow citizens, if you have pets and feel like managing hair is an uphill battle, you need this product. Living in our home is 2 adults, a German Shepherd and a cat. Our GS sheds like she gets paid to do it. My usual routine was to vacuum on Wednesday's and Saturday's and most of the time, I would have to pull our the Shark on other days due to all of the hair that my girl dropped on the daily. With the bag-less Shark meant for pets, I would empty the canister 3 times each time I vacuumed, and that is no exaggeration.... I no longer have to pull out the Shark on day's other than my usual Wed and Saturday! IT IS THE BEST! After receiving this guy (haven't named him yet), within the week, I knew I was falling in love. I don't have him set to run every day at the same time, so I run manually when I choose. Let's get to the great things this little guy does for me and a couple of his hiccups: 1. I run him every day (except on Wed/Sat when I Shark vacuum) usually in the evenings when we're home from work. He runs about 2 hours and I stop him twice during that time to clean out the bin. 2. He's taken on, what looks to be 5 different paths in our home. I've never had one before, so I don't know what it would be like to have one that learns the home, but this one works for our needs. He takes a different path each day and then you get a good rotation for the entire week. 3. I only use him on hard-wood and ceramic tile. I don't use him on carpet because I don't think he has the suction to handle that type of job. I let my Shark handle that for me. Again, I have a large GS and a cat. 4. He does go over my normal thickness rugs, but he will not attempt the thick piled run in my living area, nor would I expect him as when he does find his way on the rug - he really has to work to get back down. 5. He will get stuck from time to time under a certain cabinet in my kitchen, guess that's a low spot. I try to watch out for that area. He will also get stuck under my dining room table that seats 6 and is very tight. Usually, he works his way through the areas perfectly, but he has gotten stuck twice under there and turned itself off. 6. Had recently dropped a coffee cup in the kitchen, put him on spot and he cleaned up the small shards nicely. 7. I love to set him to clean around the baseboards - that is a nice option for people with pets because the hair tends to hug the baseboards in high traffic areas like my hallway. Such a quick pick-up when company is coming and you're in a time crunch. 8. He usually always finds his way back to his base. When he fails to find home, it's because I had to purposely move him SEVERAL times for one reason or the other. If I move him once or twice, he still finds home. 9. My dog has zero problem with him, was concerned as she hates the Shark and tries to attack it. This one, doesn't bother her one bit. Our cat is completely infatuated and follows him all over the house. 10. He's not quiet, so you may not be able to nap while it's running. We can still watch TV and have a conversation while he's out doing his cleaning. I hope this review helps others that are on fence. Like I said, I've never owned a robot vac before, so I don't have anything to compare. If you're trying not to spend a fortune and want results, you'll get it with this one. Again, I use for hardwood and ceramic tile floors only. I don't think you would get great results for carpeted floors cleaning up after pets, just my opinion that it's not strong enough to handle that type of job. I love that I'm able to manage the pet hair in my home with this little guy, it totally works for us. This one is relatively inexpensive compared to others on the market. In my opinion, I can't see those other high-dollar brands being that much better to warrant the money.

Updating: after a week of trying to find a manufacturer/seller to discuss repair/servicing, I have found zilch. The thing worked wonderfully--briefly. The one day in the middle of cleaning, stopped for no reason. Now will only back up an inch, then stop and beep an alarm. No troubleshooting in the manual made one bit of difference. Piece of absolute junk. Seems people are supposed to be willing to buy a new one once a month and be grateful. So, sadly, after loving "Crabby" for a time, I enter the ranks of crabby 1-star reviewers who found it mysteriously stopped functioning after a few weeks/months, and there is no company to turn to for repair. Don't waste your money. Buy a $3 broom from Dollar General. It'll last you 10 years. Adding to review below: the thing suddenly stopped working the other day. Nothing happened, it just stopped working. Troubleshooting with manual = an hour of totally wasted time. Cleaned everything. Unscrewed all the little screws and opened it up. Manual seems to indicate 2 beeps means "cliff sensors" need cleaning. Manual does not say what "cliff sensors" are anywhere, and also doesn't indicate whether one low beep, pause, 2 higher-pitched beeps means 3 beeps or 2 beeps. Not sure it's worth the cost of shipping this off, paying for repair, and paying for shipping back. So, it was fun for a brief time, but in the end a pricey and cheesy toy. Crabby does very well. And he looks like a crab too, with his little eyes and bristly claws. Very glad I decided on this low-end robot and not a more expensive one. This is all we need, no question. We have 2000 sq ft of all-wood floors on one story, so it's very easy. Have several cats and dogs, and this is perfect for the hair. Don't pay any attention to expensive product claims that this one won't pick up pet hair (from hard floors). I don't pick up the main household broom for days now, and we were sweeping several times a day before. Dogs went after it at first, of course, and border collie kept lunging out from behind furniture to bite it, but now they lazily shift out of the way when it approaches, and then lie back down again. One does have to go around the house picking up things that will get in the way, and I pull chairs out from the table so it can get around them (it does nicely go around furniture legs). Things it does not do: 1) kitty litter. We still have to use an actual broom around the cat boxes. Crabby will pick up some, but mostly the brushes scatter litter everywhere if it hits some. 2) corners, whether inside or outside. Its "edge" setting is great, but it goes wide around outside corners; and of course it can't really get all the way into inside corners. Other small things it can't handle: the kids' clothes on the floor--like the stray dirty sock lost under the bad. Small things will get partly sucked up and Crabby will choke and call for help. Pad that dogs' water bowls are on: gotta pick that up because, despite the half-inch-high edge, Crabby gets over it and spills the water, and then gets stuck and can't get back over the edge. And yeah, you can waste a surprising amount of time following it around with the remote, enjoying watching it eat up the balls of pet hair while you don't have to sweep--until you realize you could have swept half the da-n house in less time than you're spending steering this little guy. After a bit of fun the first few days, we've all learned to let it do its thing and not play with it. No idea how this would perform on carpet, as we have none, but for floors, it's perfect.

Es una maravilla, le he regalado una a cada uno de mis hijos Muy bien de precio y súper efectiva

I've been using the robot vacuum for two weeks and I'm amazed by it! I have long black hair that sheds a lot. Throughout my life, I've had to constantly vacuum and pick my hair off the floor by hand. I had considered a robot vacuum before but expected I'd have to regularly cut hair off the brush like I have to do with my regular vacuum. I recently went in search of a robot vacuum that sucked hair off the floor without having it get tangled in a brush and the iLife was my first choice. I thought because it was a budget-friendly vacuum that it wouldn't be this good, but I was wrong. What you get for the price is incredible! My floors has never been this bare; totally free of hair, dust, and crumbs! It catches everything! Even goes under my furniture, which I'm super lazy at cleaning. There are some cons, but I still give it 5 stars for its unexpected capability given the price. #1 Pro: It vacuums hard floors perfectly without your having to lift a finger. No more hair, dust, crumbs! Minor Cons: - The sensor could be improved. Remote is not sensitive. I.e. You have to be fairly close and pointing at the vacuum with the remote. Often have to press it a few times before the command is registered. -Also, presumably, a sensor problem: The vacuum struggles to "return home" when you press that button on the remote. Even if it registers the command, it'll wander aimlessly...even if it's right beside the dock to return home. I called iLife customer service about this and they said that there has to be at least 6 feet of free space in front of the dock. If you live in Toronto, in a 450 sq ft apartment, that's a difficult ask. The robot has to have a clear view of the dock because the sensor is not smart. I was told that it also won't find the home dock if there's a dark coloured rug in the way. I have a white and grey rug near the dock (2 feet away). CS said my rug shouldn't be a problem, but it is. I did a test by removing the rug and it was able to find home more often (although, still not always). This con is a very small one imo, so I just have to physically move the robot back to its dock when it's done. No biggie! -Hair does get caught in the sweepers and it'll stop and go into error mode when this happens. This is also a super small con because all you have to do is turn it over and pull them out of the sweepers, then restart it. Compared to using scissors to cut through a mountain of rolled up hair in a traditional vacuum, this is a miracle! -It does climb on my rugs (and this impressed me because I wasn't expecting it to), but it's not great on them. I knew this going in because the vacuum suction is not as powerful as you'd find on more expensive robot vacuums made for carpeted floors/rugs (I compared). I bought it specifically for hair on my hardwood, so if that's your purpose too, this does the perfectly! The pros trump all the cons. I 💯highly recommend this for anyone with long hair that sheds a lot!

Estou usando esse robô aspirador há 2 meses e ele realmente facilitou minha vida. No início tive um pouco de dificuldade para entender o funcionamento, mas depois que peguei o jeito ficou muito fácil. Ele é simples de limpar, carrega bem e consigo deixá-lo varrendo enquanto faço outras tarefas. Tenho uma casa de tamanho médio/grande e ele consegue varrer vários cantos, tirando poeira, resíduos e pelos dos meus cachorros. (e ele limpa tres cômodo, a area ao ar livre, cozinha e o quarto do meu filho) Não substitui uma faxina pesada, mas mantém a casa muito mais limpa no dia a dia (principalmente p quem tem pet). Todo mundo que vê pergunta onde comprei, de tão útil que ele é. Penso até em comprar um modelo melhor no futuro, de tão satisfeita que fiquei. Os pontos negativos: o barulho, que é um pouco mais baixo que o de um aspirador, mas pode incomodar no início (depois a gente se acostuma); e o fato de não mapear os ambientes, o que faz ele repetir alguns trechos e demorar mais para limpar. Ainda assim, o sensor funciona muito bem, nunca caiu da escada e nem teve problemas com desníveis, ele atravessa tranquilamente. No geral, vale muito a pena pelo preço e pelo resultado. Recomendo demais para quem quer praticidade no dia a dia e odeia limpar como eu.

Top, funciona 2 horas sem parar, retira todos pelos nos cachorros, fiquei muito satisfeito, uso todos dias.

La verdad que con varios perritos en casa que sueltan pelo no me esperaba el buen resultado que me está dando este robot aspirador. Sólo tengo que tener en cuenta vaciarlo hacia la mitad de la carga porque el depósito ya está lleno. Pero claro hay que tener en cuenta que no tenemos sólo un perro.
