The manufacturer excluded the turbo brush from the robot equipment, since a lot of energy is expended for its operation. This made it possible to increase the suction power of the model, as well as eliminate the problem with hair curling around the brush. The dust collector contains a high-quality filter that prevents dust from returning to the room. The waste container is accessed through the top panel, which can be folded back completely. The dust compartment is equipped with a convenient handle, for which it can be easily removed and carried to the place of emptying and cleaning.

Kitfort KT-518

Kitfort KT-518 can operate in five modes:

  1. Auto. Designed to clean the entire available area. The vacuum cleaner evaluates the room and determines the path of movement itself. The only mode that can be turned on not only from the remote control, but also manually with the button on the case.
  2. Manual. The user assigns the path of movement from the remote control. This mode can be activated after turning on the Auto program.
  3. Intensive. Cleaning a highly contaminated area at high power. It moves in a spiral shape within a radius of 1 sq.m.
  4. Around the perimeter. The robot is installed next to the wall and turned on. He runs the entire room along the baseboards, entering the corners.
