Good concept, not more ...

Vacuuming made me really from nothing. Until our youth so slowly began to eat themselves and to become mobile. Since then we can actually permanently suck. At least once a day, it is then also urgently needed! Add to that a fireplace, which also neatly dirt produced in the winter (not only ashes, but gibts nen ash vacuum ...).
And what is even more precious than money? Right, time! And so I began to search the market for a robotic vacuum cleaner. Unfortunately, this also could not meet the expectations. Just like the Neato Botvac 85 who failed in another field ...
Our House. 55 m2 below, 55 m2 above.
Top laminate and tiles, 2 2cm Hoche kurzflorteppiche. Also rocking chairs in the dining room (big problem ...)
Up just laminate.

Navigation: Super! At least mostly. The device moves out of the base and then begin to systematically suck the room. Unfortunately, he found their way not always. That he learns, I could not find at least. He also has a couple of times spaces not found.
3- 4 stars

Suction / cleaning performance: Here you have to say that the robot rather returns and very little sucks. For the price but in my opinion inadequate. Again and again were crumbs are, even though I could clearly see that the HomBot over it went ... not much better even in turbo mode. But for carpet he is better because he has neatly brought out what. Only those who have the still.
2 stars on hard floors, 4 on carpet (because it gets even better, the Neato has brought out more ...)

Obstacle height: For me, a separate point, because that's what matters! Here the LG scores principle and makes it better than the Neato. He pushes so good as not to furniture, because it has sensors. He runs once on an object firmly, has a climbing aid, with which he can usually free themselves. On our carpets without problems he came.
Unfortunately, he was just like Neato not at all clear in our rocking chairs. The below its "radar", he drives it, back down, backwards, forwards, super annoying. But this is a special case, I think. Who normal chairs, will have no problems. The chairs I superscript, then it went.
4 stars

Volume: relatively pleasant. One can stay in the same room. But television is not, I think ...
4 stars

Why did not I keep it? He then but often omitted small areas. Also upstairs in the laminate remained too much lie or ungesaugt. The way to the kitchen he has despite the open door 3 of 10x not found.
Since we want to make him necessarily run in the absence, for us as a whole, along with the rather poor suction / Sweeping the KO for the LG ...
