Cartoons like The Jetsons predicted that in the future we would have robots who would do everything for us. Well, it’s the year 2020 and while humanoid robots that can do everything are still not here, you can still get a robot that will vacuum your house for you. Robotic vacuum cleaners have been around for a while now and while they may not look anything like humans, they get the job done. And that’s the important bit. Here’s a look at some robotic vacuum cleaners that are available on Amazon. Keep in mind that these devices are selected based on specifications and the features on offer.
The ECOVACS Deebot 500 Robots Vacuum Cleaner features a Max Mode which is said to double the suction power of the vacuum cleaner. This is aimed at removing stubborn dirt that may not be easy to clean otherwise. The vacuum cleaner is also compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant, so you can control the various features of the device by issuing commands to devices that feature Alexa or the Google Assistant built-in. It also offers app connectivity, allowing users to control the device via their phones.
The iLife Robot V5s Pro Robotic Vacuum Cleaner comes with two modes, namely Wet and Dry. This means that it can not only work as a traditional vacuum cleaner but can also be used to mop floors. It comes with a water tank for mopping and the i-Dropping Technology used by it is aimed at minimising water consumption. Other cleaning modes include Auto, Scheduled, Edge and Spot cleaning modes.
The iRobot Roomba 671 WiFi Connected Robot Vacuum is compatible with Alexa and comes with a bunch of interesting features. The auto-adjust cleaning head can automatically adapt its height to ensure that the dual multi-surface brushes are in close contact with the floor. It also comes with Dirt Detection sensors that are said to be able to recognise areas of concentrated dirt and prompts the device to clean that area thoroughly. The 3-Stage Cleaning feature promises to pick up a range of differently sized particles, while the iRobot HOME app allows users to control the vacuum cleaner via their smartphone.
The Eufy BoostIQ RoboVac 11S has a height of 2.85-inches, which allows it to get under low furniture such as couches or beds. It also comes with BoostIQ Tech, which is said to automatically increase power within 1.5 seconds. This should be useful when the vacuum cleaner comes up against some tough dirt.
The company claims that the device has a battery life of 100 minutes before needing to be recharged.
