Viomi Cleaning Robot (V2 V-RVCLM21B) is an innovative robot vacuum cleaner from Xiaomi, the navigation is based on the LDS laser, this is the company's first trial in the production of robots with such a complete set. A washing smart vacuum cleaner using 10 sensors to detect obstacles and type of coating, adapting the suction power to it. What else does the new product offer - its characteristics, pros and cons, we will consider in this review.

Design
The design of the model is somewhat different from the previous ones, the body is in dark gray colors. At the top of the case there is a protruding tower, in which the very novelty is located - the LDS sensor, it scans the room and makes its map. In the center of the upper part there is a corporate logo. At the bottom, the center and side brushes are made of thermoplastic elastomer and nylon blend. There are also two large driving wheels that allow you to pass high obstacles.
The body is compact, but its height is not so small in comparison with other models, it is larger due to the protruding laser sensor. On the top there is one control button that turns on the power and returns the vacuum cleaner to the base for charging. Under the lid is a container for collecting garbage, tools for cleaning it. There is also a container for water.
Functional
The vacuum cleaner has a small size, but very high suction power, it picks up debris from corners, along walls, in hard-to-reach areas due to brushes and high power. Works in three modes: eco, normal, turbo. The noise level is relatively low.
Cartography and navigation are carried out using a laser and a large number of sensors scattered around the hull. The LDS laser scans the room around it 360 degrees, based on the data received from it and 10 additional sensors, a cleaning map is created, then the vacuum cleaner starts working. The robot moves along the created maps forward, backward along the lines, clearing all surfaces. All created maps are stored in memory until the next launch, while several map variants may be saved, for this reason the model is considered optimal for houses with several floors or a large number of rooms.
The water tank is the largest among all competitors and predecessors. It is enough for a large room. The set includes a microfiber napkin, water is supplied to it, the surface is wiped in automatic mode. The vacuum cleaner is automatically set to charge after cleaning or when the battery level reaches a critical level.
To control the robot, it connects to the APP application, where you can set operating modes, schedule cleaning, control the movement of the robot, and set movement limits in the required areas of the room. Local cleaning of the selected area is also included here. The vacuum cleaner is effective on carpets, thanks to its large wheels and great flotation. On a smooth surface, its effectiveness is increased by wet cleaning.
