Design
Outwardly, the model is somewhat different from its relatives. It has a body in the shape of the Latin letter D. This shape was chosen by the engineers to increase the maneuverability of the apparatus. Although all of its overall dimensions are relatively large, it cleans the room well, without disregarding even corners and areas with difficult access to them.
The upper part of the robot is very concise and maximally functional. It houses an LCD display and two control buttons. At the bottom, in its square part, there is a central turbo brush, a little further on the side brush. Two pairs of wheels, large drive wheels and one pair of small roller wheels.
The shape of the letter D was not chosen by chance, it appeared and was approved after lengthy tests, which confirmed that it is precisely vacuum cleaners of this shape that are best suited for cleaning in corners. The square rear allows you to get as close to the wall as possible, while the rounded front retains maneuverability.
The case has metal inserts for increased durability and scratch resistance, in addition, they reduce vibration and noise during operation. But for interior items, metal may not be the most delicate material.
Distinctive features of the model
The manufacturer claims that this model is worth the price tag set on it, since it has undergone a number of upgrades, which endowed it with distinctive features that favorably elevate its competitors. Among them are such items.
Improved navigation system
Scans the room, identifying the most clogged places on the road. All the data obtained is compiled into an individual map of the My Floor Plan room, which can be corrected during the cleaning process online through the application. At any time during cleaning, you can put the virtual "No-Go" line online. This function works simply: in the application, you just need to draw lines around the areas where the robot should not enter.
At the end of cleaning, the robot provides a detailed report on the work done, the report looks like marks on a virtual map, they even show places where obstacles were found that prevented cleaning.
Works with any flooring
The model quickly and independently adapts to any type of flooring: parquet, laminate, ceramics, linoleum, carpets and carpets. The vacuum cleaner passes through obstacles up to 1.5 cm. Cleaning is carried out with the possibility of replacing the SpinFlow brushes - a combined brush and silicone are used. Each of them is optimally suited for specific tasks.
For high-quality cleaning along the walls, the installed side brush is used. The robot is not suitable for collecting liquid and is quite sensitive to moisture. To avoid damage not covered by the warranty, do not use it in rooms with high humidity.
