Advantages and disadvantages

The Polaris PVCR 0826 model is a cleaning robot that performs both dry and wet cleaning of any surface. The principle of its operation does not differ from other similar devices. The medium size of the device allows cleaning in tight spaces and under furniture. In the review, we will get acquainted with the functionality of the device and its methods of operation, without losing sight of the technical potential.

Appearance

The vacuum cleaner is made in the form of a circle with a diameter of 31 cm and a height of 7.6 cm. It weighs 3.5 kg. The body is made of sturdy plastic in a combination of soft pink and silver. The upper part is made of durable glass and the start button of the device is visible on its surface in front. Opposite is the button for opening the dust compartment.

A soft touch rubberized bumper is installed along the side panel, in which sensors and sensors are built in, monitoring the correct movement of the device. On the bottom of the robot there are:

2 side wheels and front swivel castor;
2 side brushes;
in the center is the main brush above the suction hole;
battery compartment with cover;
dust collector.

Specifications

The robot is programmed for dry cleaning of floor coverings and wet mopping of the floor. It has the following technical parameters:

It receives power from a Li-Ion battery with a capacity of 2600 mAh. Works autonomously for 200 minutes. It takes about 300 minutes to charge.

Functionality

The Polaris PVCR 0826 has high suction power, which is kept constant by cyclone technology, thereby increasing the life of the motor. The air entering the dust collector undergoes triple filtration, and the HEPA filter also absorbs harmful allergens, preventing them from getting outside. The robot can work in five modes:

Routine cleaning, when the vacuum cleaner automatically sets a route for itself.
Local cleaning of a specific area with heavy pollution. Cleaning takes place in one place, the device pedantically deals with only the specified area.
Cleaning around the perimeter of the room over the walls and near the baseboards.
Scheduled activation. The user selects a specific time on the right day for cleaning.
The quick cleaning lasts 30 minutes. During this time, the device manages to clean a room with a small area.

The work of the cleaner is controlled by the remote control. The vacuum cleaner is charged at the base, where it automatically returns at the end of the program or when the charge has expired. In this case, he himself calculates the time required for him to receive a full charge. In addition, recharging is possible through the power adapter from the mains.

The robot cleans a smooth surface perfectly, but with carpets with a pile length of more than 2 cm, it has difficulties. The device's spatial orientation is provided by a set of specially selected sensors.

the presence of a dust collector filling indicator;
it is not required to use special detergents for wet cleaning;
the presence of a charge level indicator and sound notification in case of a device failure;
a sufficient number of sensors and sensors to ensure correct movement;
the ability to set a cleaning schedule.

Disadvantages:

when working on a carpet, the side brushes must be removed;
