Before going into details let's see what's in the box:
- The robot
- Charging base
- A housing to create a virtual wall for the robot
- Cleaning accessories
Loading the robot is quick enough but in my battery does not hold a week if I use it only once.
Once loaded you can either put it to work directly, or make adjustments to the make the most of opportunities such as the program to boot has a specific time. Different suction programs are also available
It also has a small propeller to clean the complaints. this small propeller comes off very easily by removing a small screw. Very handy for removing pet hair and / or hair that manquero does not attach to it
As others have said before me, it is not by what it is autonomous will happen to get along at all times. We must therefore prepare the ground by removing anything that might hinder its work. I think of the chairs, jouetspar land in the children's room ... It has happened to me to find him making forward and reverse to get out of an area without success. It is supposed to identify the cables to the ground but for security reasons I did not want to do the test
Overall it works well. It is not blocked by the slight differences in height when it comes for example to pass the floor to a thick carpet for example.
Now back to the key question is whether this robot is also a good vacuum cleaner. As for me, the answer is yes. It has a suction power, even if it is far from the high-end vacuum cleaners, is still sufficient. I have never had to complain about the result. The fact that it measures only 13cm high allows it to pass through areas that are very difficult to reach with a conventional vacuum cleaner such as under a bed or a dresser.
If he avoids having to vacuuming, it must still ensure its maintenance for optimal operation. But here nothing too: cleaning brushes, essentially wiping sensors
I did not give it 5 stars because for me it lacks a feature that could have made me switch to a true home automation product namely remote control him. It could have been nice to be able to steer and administer it from its smartphone. I think of what we can do with the products Nest
