Review: Robot vacuum cleaners - how to choose? Tested on humans
The robot cleaner — many of us, these home appliances are associated with the brand iRobot. But today, the number of brands that you can find on the market has more than a dozen. Yes, iRobot remains one of the most recognizable, but no less active in the leaders of the strikes and the Samsung-branded phones and devices from LG, and a number of less famous Asians. The price of ribopyranose starts from 8-9 thousand, and then flies into space — you can find the model and 30 and 40 thousand. The chassis, naturally, is a budget vacuum cleaners cost about 10 thousand rubles. Plus or minus.
These are the models we decided to take in the Internet-shop "Yulmart", to see whether or not they are something other than as a vehicle for cats. We took the more expensive model from LG — I wonder how brand power affects the quality of cleaning.
As a result, in our hands was:
Ariete 2711
Kitfort CT-501
Panda X500
Qwikk XRobot 700
LG Hom-Bot 2.0
Testing ribopyranose — process in something fun, or meditative. And to not go to Nirvana, we decided to formalize field tests. The first thing checked, as these devices generally handle different types of rubbish — we had confetti, rice, millet, peas and a couple of coins — something that usually feed the cleaner. Simultaneously, we evaluated the algorithm by which these household robots are making their way. Next, to examine how they can overcome obstacles and how built-in sensors can protect them from falls and difficulty.
What are these vacuum cleaners and what to expect from them. In the mass, is a kind of pancake, height 10 cm, equipped with a main cylindrical brush (and sometimes without it) and one or two side. Inside the bag is equipped with simple filters. By the way, the vertical dust more convenient than a retractable rear — in the first case, to scatter the garbage collected is almost impossible.
The most interesting thing in nabopalassar — a set of sensors that helps the device to navigate the terrain and avoid obstacles and dangers — walls, stairs, furniture etc Expensive models are equipped with lasers and cameras in the budget you have — as in our case — is likely to detect only infrared sensors.
What and how ribopyranose clean. As shown by the collective experience, best of all, they do all sorts of little stuff — flour, crumbs, cereals, ordinary household dust and dander. The device with one side brushed in our opinion spends more effort on cleaning up trash on the Playground or driving it into the corners. Two lateral — PROFIT!!! They throw garbage to each other and eventually it gets to the bag is more likely. Draw conclusions: two side brush better. But they need to have in reserve — quickly wear out (experienced users take once a year). Large debris budget robots beyond the power of a pea, he can drop-kick, and the small coin in 99% of cases just ignored. Add that socks robots either go around or wound on the shaft, and then blocked and squeaked plaintively.
If we talk about the algorithms that move, then the vacuum cleaners are divided into two types — nerds and Jolly fellows. First, like LG, lays out the territory, swept once around the perimeter, and then go zigzag, dividing the area into square sectors. Second — you can move from wall to wall diagonally, stop and begin to move in a spiral, then back to your old ways — it looks like a chaotic movement, but generally "Jolly fellows" also good at my job. And after these dances then another, and themselves returned to the charge.
As for obstacles, even budget vacuum cleaner pretty good job with them, overcoming the barriers to the average height of one-half centimeters. Simpler models are equipped with bumpers to the robot is more difficult tie a bit more of the sensors. Carpets and rugs not all vacuum cleaners in the teeth — even if they cleverly call them, then just as easily can get stuck. Everything is fine with sensors to prevent the fall — all our ribopyranose able to maneuver even on its own box without the risk of falling. There remains a small probability of getting stuck under the sofa or table, but this "ability" of the robot can be verified only experimentally.
In commercials, colorfully depicting the opening after the purchase of the robot cleaner prospects, often the emphasis on the fact that these home appliances low noise and fuss you can safely watch TV and take a NAP in peace. Basically, if you have nerazgadannaja nervous system is true. Yes, robots buzzing clearly quieter household cleaner. But the level of noise produced by them is comparable to a powerful household fan. And some of them literally drifting clang on the tile and with a nice difficulty moving lightweight tables and chairs.
A couple of useful "chips" that are available and the state — independent return on the charger and virtual wall. In the mass, the device can easily cope with the task of returning to base, although in some cases, you can search it endlessly. By the way, ribopyranose supposed to navigate in multi-room apartments, but for several reasons it is not so — they have often violated the route, for example, when a large number of light furniture or the presence of sex cords/cables. And there may come in handy "virtual wall". Small infrared beacons, which create invisible barrier cleaner — some robots are included.
An important point that a happy newly minted owners forget consumables. Caring manufacturers often complement new vacuum cleaner replacement sets and it was good, but it is important to remember that depending on the intensity of use of filters and brushes you will have to replace at least once a year. Therefore, buying a robot vacuum, keep that in mind (for all the device from our test consumables can be purchased in Russia, though — for some models — and not without hassle).
Two key findings that we made while testing these devices. First, in front of us, rather than intellectual sweepers, robot vacuum cleaners. And this applies to devices in different price categories — the power of suction is very small in comparison with a conventional household vacuum cleaner. Second, ribopyranose disciplinary owners and accustom them to order — Yes, Yes! — small things can block the cleaner, and, for example, thick wires often become insurmountable obstacles. The conclusion is that practical robotic vacuum cleaners can hardly be used for cleaning, but rather to maintain it.
If we talk about models we had in testing, in General, all budget vacuum cleaner very close in features and quality of the cleaning and structurally differ only in the placement of the dust collector, the presence or absence of the main and side brushes. Hom-Bot from LG was a little more smartest and quietest, but the difference in cost between the cheapest model Qwikk Xrobot 700 is more than 3 thousand rubles. published by P. S. And remember, only by changing their consumption — together we change the world! ©
