Now the newest flagship of iRobot Roomba, the original. The Roomba 871
Right at the front off, the suction power of the aforementioned robot was very very good, the Roomba 871 is again better. Gee, I did not expect when I read the advertisement for this robot.
But the new principle in effect, creates an enormous amount of dirt from the carpet :-)
Securely packed in a large and solid box the unit arrived.
It comes with the robotic vacuum cleaner, the docking station with the appropriate charging cable, a "virtual wall", a remote control, the corresponding batteries for the wall and remote control, a replacement filter for the collection container and the instructions, a quick start and detailed instructions. The charging cable is the only thing I want to complain about, it's just too short.
The virtual wall I will not use, the robot can be happy nozzle through the entire apartment.
This "virtual wall" prevented the Roomba leaves the room. She remembers when the Roomba switched ON or OFF and then responds accordingly just the same.
The robot is perfectly finished, I must not mention large, which is in the high-priced devices of Roomba Standard. The materials are worked just as high quality and precision.
The suction power is enormous, can the robot can operate in two different modes, once a "Spot" - mode, it then rotates from the inside out in a circle up to a meter in diameter around its own axis and back or in the cleaning mode, he goes zigzagging across the room and calculates the room size. In cleaning mode, it starts from the walls. He discovers a major pollution goes a little light on to signal that he does a deep cleaning. Without the lamp could otherwise assume that he will hang or so ..... well resolved.
Also appears that the bin is full. I have got used to each cleaning cycle to empty the container. There is a gentle pressure on the release button and the container is very easy to clean and remove and empty. Just as easily it can also be used again.
The robot can be easily programmed, individual days or a week. The programming is taken directly to the robot before, with the remote control, you can enter the most common commands, start, stop, charging station and you can see him use it to navigate manually.
Compared to my previous robotic vacuum that is here determined to the point, he moves quite quickly across the room, however, slows down just before a collision rather, touches, there are still, gentle, but more than in my old robot.
He finds the charging station very quickly and also controls at very accurately and centrally. Since my old Robbi was not exactly there.
My entire apartment I warmly decorated two years ago robot, he comes under all the cupboards and there are no cables around, it therefore can not become entangled. The Roomba 871 is itself could liberate in the event of the case. I'll be watching it. The Roomba 871 is two cm higher than the Eurobots, I'll have to lift a small closet but something that is not a problem. My whole apartment, except kitchen and bathroom is carpeted, I have in the matching color blocks for under the cabinet. It's worth it to me, I go once a month with the big sucker through the corner, the rest for the little :-)
I would not have missed the robotic vacuum never, he really takes off a lot of work. A tribute to inventor :-)
