Who needs such a thing:
People who like me do not like wiping and have fun with technology.
Application:
Tiles and (sealed) laminate; in unsealed floors I would not let the Braava wet wipe.
One should have a robot-friendly as possible at home, read: no lying about cables or lightweight furniture, which can move a robot or where he can get stuck
Appearance:
The black, glossy surface looks very valuable, but has the disadvantage that you can see fingerprints or similar fast.
Scope of supply:
-Braava Robot
Navigation Cube
-Magnetpad For dry wipe
-Magnetpad With water supply for Naßwischen
Charger (no charging station)
-depending a microfiber cloth for dry or wet wipe
Use:
The microfiber cloths or disposable wipes (damp or wet) are clamped in the Magnet Pad without water supply.
Works great and keeps bombproof. Alternatively, the micro fiber cloth for Naßwischen in the Magnet Pad is clamped with water supply. This is then moistened continuously over the water tank.
The Magnetpads are then attached to the Braava which included navigation cube placed somewhere in the room, the Braava off and then via a switch either the "dry wiping" or "Wet Wipe" is selected.
Wipe dry means that the Braava only travels straight until it encounters an indernis, then turns and slightly offset the same way back runs (meandering). Here the Braava remembers the dimensions of the room and also cleans afterwards along all corners. The dry cloth takes up dust and small particles. Is similar to dry with this Swiffer dusters.
Naßwischen means that the Braaava slight angle drives up to the right, then back to the original position, and then a slight angle to the left (typical sweeping motion). Here, too, the room is measured and cleaned finally the corners.
Is exciting that the Braava not cleaned after the chaos system, like some robot vacuum cleaner, but really strictly going according to plan. Mostly he really manages to get all corners of an area.
The Braava returns after work back to its starting point back and then has to be connected to the charging station from there.
What can we expect:
One should not expect that you never have to wipe again. With coarse and fixed dental dirt Braava is overwhelmed. He's too light and can not build enough pressure. Light stains (water stains, fresh coffee splashes) etc. eliminates the Braava but with flying colors. He leaves in my kitchen a slightly shiny surface and through the disposable wipes used (Swiffer) he spread a great fresh scent of lemon. It is always fascinating how much dust and pollen of Braava found in a freshly sucked apartment yet. This is evidenced every time the disposable cloth. It is of course also possible to use the micro-fiber cloths and wash them in hot wash later.
Conclusion:
I do not regret the purchase and am always happy when I can watch the kids while working.
