The robot performs dry cleaning of hard and soft floor coverings. It thoroughly cleans the floor, collects small debris, dust, wool, hair. We'll cover other features of iLife V3S Pro in detail in this review.

- batteries for the remote control;
- HEPA filter (2 pcs.);
- side brushes (2 pcs.);
- brush for cleaning the dust collector;

The manufacturer has taken care of the reliable packaging of the vacuum cleaner so that it is not damaged during transportation. It is placed in two cardboard boxes at once, one of which has a convenient plastic handle wrapped in foil.
Appearance
The design of the robot vacuum cleaner is futuristic, modern. The model has a round case made of white plastic. The dimensions are compact - only 30 × 30 cm, and the weight is small - 2.05 kg. With a height of 7 cm, the robot can easily drive under furniture and clean up every corner of the house.
The main control buttons are located on the robot body: the Clean touch button to start cleaning and the Push button to open the dust container. There are indicator lights showing the status of the vacuum cleaner. The on / off button is on the side. There is also a connector for connecting a charging unit.
At the bottom, the vacuum cleaner is equipped with two powerful wheels fixed on a high suspension. Thanks to this design solution, it easily overcomes household obstacles - wires, door sills. The robot has one pivot wheel and can perform turns and other maneuvers.
Functionality
The robot vacuum cleaner can perform cleaning in three modes:
- Auto. In this mode, the vacuum cleaner moves randomly around the room. He removes it to full discharge, and then returns to the station to recharge.
- Cleaning stains. When activated, the vacuum cleaner operates at high power. It is suitable for local or local cleaning to remove difficult dirt.
- Cleaning along the walls. The mode allows you to effectively clean the space along the baseboards and in the corners.
The user can program the vacuum cleaner to work at a specific time. A timer is provided for this. It makes it much easier to maintain cleanliness.
The design includes sensors and orientation sensors. They prevent it from colliding with objects, prevent it from falling from heights.
Two brushes and a 600 Pa suction hole are responsible for high-quality cleaning. The dust container is transparent, so the user can control how full it is. To throw away the debris, just open the top cover and pull out the dust container.
The robot vacuum cleaner has a high-quality filtration system, consisting of HEPA fine air filters. From time to time, the filters need to be cleaned of dust with water and the supplied brush.

The ILIFE V3S Pro robot vacuum cleaner is a good assistant for cleaning premises, although it is of Chinese origin. With its main function - dry cleaning - it copes perfectly: it is helped by a high suction power of 600 Pa, a HEPA filtration system and a powerful lithium-ion battery. However, you will have to throw away the garbage often, since the volume of the dust container is only 300 ml. Users will also have to put up with the high noise level: when cleaning at high power, it reaches 65 dB.
