I live in a two-bedroom apartment with my partner and our five animals 鈥 two dogs, two cats, and a bird. Naturally, our floors are constantly covered with fur, dust, and feathers. After spending a lot of time watching YouTube reviews and reading up on different robot vacuums, I decided to go with this one after seeing a demonstration of its power on carpet. Even though we have mostly hardwood floors with only a small area of carpet, the way it handled sand on carpet sold me.
That was in February 2024, and now, in mid-February 2025, I couldn鈥檛 be happier with my purchase.
For the first 9 months, we had Rosie, our robot vacuum, on a cleaning schedule for 7am every day, except Sundays. At first, it was perfect. But one unfortunate night, one of our dogs had an accident in the living room. I didn鈥檛 even think to check the floor before starting Rosie鈥檚 cleaning cycle, and as you can imagine, she ended up spreading the mess all over before heading back to her dock. It took me over two hours to clean up, and Rosie needed about two months to dry out and get back to work. Lesson learned: never schedule cleaning when you have pets! Always inspect the area first before setting Rosie to work.
After some time, I was able to clean Rosie thoroughly. I removed the battery and cleaned every part I could without disassembling her completely. With a lot of patience and the help of Q-tips, cleaner, hot water, and paper towels, I managed to give her a proper cleaning. After ensuring she was fully dry (five days, just to be sure), Rosie was back on her daily chores, and everything returned to normal.
For the first nine months, I barely needed to pull out my traditional vacuum. I only used a small hand vac to clean behind doors, and within five minutes, I was done. It was so convenient to let Rosie handle the bulk of the work!
In conclusion, I鈥檓 incredibly happy with this purchase. With five animals, a clean home can be a challenge, but Rosie has made it so much easier to keep everything tidy every day. It鈥檚 been worth every penny. If you have pets and need a reliable cleaning solution, I highly recommend this robot vacuum. It鈥檚 an investment that pays off in convenience and cleanliness!
