Off to new shores

Normally, I suck with my old Vorwerk, Staubsaugerroboter I eyeing far rather suspiciously. I simply can not imagine that such a small thing could replace a normal vacuum cleaner. Admittedly, however small the Robo's not, but already the look inside where the "dust chamber" is letting me be skeptical still, after all this is not very big.
But after all, no pesky pouch. and the emptying also goes easy. Here I must say that even generally of Robo is very well constructed. The operation is quite easy to learn and all items can be removed easily, clean and grow again.
The cleaning brush that comes with also helps in cleaning. The dust filter can be cleaned even more easily because you can hold it under running water.

The Home Station of Robo is quite small, but still need a lot of space. In a distance of five feet to the left and right and two meters in front of the station absolutely nothing must stand, otherwise the Robo does not get the back and is confused in Robohirn. Well ok, is a bit difficult in my small apartment, but I was able to make a free wall in the bedroom.
He Cleaning Modes 4 different stock. I first put him in the learning-Mod, that he goes autonomously around and remembers quasi the environment through sensors and camera it detects obstacles and drives around this. I find quite handy as far. For this I express whatever the repeat button so that he repeated until its battery is empty and he drives this "distance" itself constantly to the charging station.
Plus, there's the zigzag Mod, which is very well suited to clean a larger open space.
The My-Space-Mod can be cleaned from Robo a predetermined small area (about 1 m²). Perhaps what if one chip crumbs spilled etc. However, I find the effort to be inappropriate, because I have to leave antanzen the Robo and then manually the outline of the surface to be cleaned "draw" using the supplied FB. In the time I have the crumbs 3 x cleared with the hand brush so. Especially since the "Drawing" such a thing is, I mean, maybe I'm just too stupid, but I can do it usually only the second time that the Robo detects and gets going the surface.

The final mod is of course the manual cleaning, here you control the Robo with the FB.

The cleanse itself does work surprisingly well, ok, large parts such as petals can be problematic, but otherwise I am very satisfied. And since the emptying and cleaning of the dust container is so simple it can be quite tolerate him once more to empty. What also surprised me positively was the volume, as opposed to my Vorwerk, or generally to the normal vacuum cleaners of Robo's almost silently.
Unfortunately, the Robo does not create high-pile carpets and nothing else which is higher than 1-1.5 cm. Even the Robo the Robo does not have sensors in front of stairs, etc. warn.

If the Robo has something he answers sometimes even to speak, for example, if a fallen leaf down my rubber tree has come under its wheels. If that annoys him can mute course.

As such, I am pleasantly surprised by Robo, a swab but you have to make. He already needs a little attention and for small apartments is a Robo my opinion rather unsuitable, unless that one hardly has furniture and carpets.
