None of us want to spend our precious weekends vacuuming our homes. Who wants to know what’s hidden under your cupboard or stuck between your couches? But let’s face it, we can’t do without doing it at all. Imagine what if your parents stopped by? Or your colleagues? Don’t worry. Blessings of 2017! We have our little minions to help us complete the tiring task. Call Robot Vacuum.
A few years ago owning a Robot Vacuum meant you had to spend a lot of money, but that is a thing of the past. Thanks to production plants in the Far East and brands like ILIFE, Alfawise and Xiomi, robot vacuum cleaners are not in your dreams. They’re affordable and have some really smart features, meaning faster and cleaner jobs from your dear droid.
All ready to buy your little robot vacuum cleaner at an economical price?
Here are some pointers that you may want to consider before making a smart choice or decision.
Floor Type
This is probably a no-brainer. But each type of floor may require a different type of cleaning. While very few vacuum cleaners are suitable for all floors, many customers fail to understand the areas they want to cover. Carpeted floors might make you feel like you’re staying in a five-star hotel, but that comes with cleaning issues. Again, hardwood floors look very classy, but do you clean up the dust bunnies and mites afterward? Make sure the robot vacuum cleaner you choose works better on your floor.
Navigation
Pay more attention to droid navigation skills. Do you need them to navigate between rooms yourself? Is there a ladder they need to sensor to avoid falling? Often these robots have trouble finding their way back to the charging station when done with them scheduled cleaning. Tripping on carpets is also sometimes a problem. Try to check if the product you choose is suitable for this problem.
Wet Mopping
Mopping floors is more often on the list of the most hated jobs. Some robot vacuums also incorporate this feature and even have a separate, smaller, water tank to help you wet mop. They act exactly like a vacuum cleaner except obviously, they clean wet surfaces. They come with disposable or reusable pads that clean including pet hair from your messy floors.
More details
You may want to look at the miscellaneous aspects while making choices such as:
- Run time per charge
- Battery capacity
- Charging time is required
- High (for cleaning under furniture and the like)
- scheduling facility
- Number of side brushes
- cleaning radius
- Dust bag capacity
While this robot vacuum cleaner may sound like the answer to all your prayers, it can’t work miracles. So keep your hopes up to have a clean and hygienic home.
