Design
The body of the vacuum cleaner is black, glossy, in the form of a regular circle, on the upper part there are touch buttons and a blue backlight. The assembly and all components are of high quality - there are no gaps or backlashes. IR sensors are located on the surface of the robot for communication with the docking station and remote control. On the side of the front there is a rubber bumper with sensors for detecting the proximity to an obstacle. At the bottom is a UV lamp.
The container for collecting waste is removed from the top, the lid is opened by pressing on the central upper part. The container itself is transparent, its filling level can be easily determined without dismantling. Filters are easy to dismantle, it is allowed to wash them under running water. At the bottom there are two side brushes and a hole for sucking up debris with a rubber scraper, no turbo brush is provided.
Functional
The vacuum cleaner performs well on smooth surfaces - parquet, tiles, linoleum. Removes debris from carpets if the height of their pile does not exceed 1 cm.Programmed to perform cleaning in three main modes of operation:
- Auto - movement along an arbitrary trajectory: along the perimeter, zigzag or snake.
- Local - the robot moves in a spiral. This algorithm allows you to harvest more intensively and thoroughly in a specific area. It is optimal to use the mode for cleaning a specific dirty area.
- Manual - the trajectory is selected independently by the user using the remote control or buttons on the front panel.
The vacuum cleaner differs from other models in the line with a UV lamp that disinfects surfaces. The model is well suited for families with children or pets. Sensors located along the entire perimeter of the case help to make an overview of the room, determine all obstacles and height differences, avoid collisions and obstacles.
Wet cleaning as such is not provided in the model, but it can work as a floor polisher. A damp cloth is attached to its bottom and the vacuum cleaner is started up. There is no strip for fastening the napkin, but the napkin itself has a sticky side, due to which it is securely held at the bottom.
Pros and cons
Based on the review, the following advantages of a vacuum cleaner can be distinguished:
- The set includes a virtual wall motion limiter.
- There is a UV lamp.
- Two stages of filtration.
- Small size.
