Keeps clean with 5 cats
Color: Black, Color: Black
I like this vacuum - a very convenient solution to the issue of 5 cats leaving their hairs all over my house. The mop feature is mostly useless though, so I canโt give it a full 5 stars.
Pros:
It's way quieter than a normal vacuum. You can have a conversation with it running in the same room & not have to raise your voice at all. Itโs only slightly annoying to have it running when youโre trying to listen to music/ the TV, or make a phone call.
It fits under all the furniture I have & gets between legs of chairs without me having to lift things, move things out of the way, wrestle with a power cord, then put everything back (the reasons none of us want to have to vacuum).
The dustbin will hold a lot of dirt & cat hair before it needs emptying. It has never had to quit a cleaning session early because the dustbin is too full.
The cats like to watch it work but they havenโt bothered it/ havenโt ridden on it & it hasnโt bothered them. My one cat likes to stand vigil at his food dish & the vacuum will just clean a one-inch circumference around him without trying to bump him out of the way. (Itโs quiet enough that they donโt run in terror.)
Cons:
Itโs advertised as working on both 2.4 Ghz & 5 Ghz Wi-Fi, but that turns out to be a total lie when you try to set it up &, suddenly, it NEEDS to connect it to the 2.4 Ghz (which I donโt know how to do & it was the specific reason I bought THIS model instead of hundreds of others). I did try pressing random buttons on my router before returning the device & it HAS been working ever since.
I have a raised threshold one half-inch high & four inches wide between two rooms that it continually struggles to climb over. It usually spends about 5 minutes there, trying, before backing down the way it came. Maybe one time in ten it actually makes it into & cleans the other room. - Youโre not supposed to pick it up & help it get there, even if you feel sorry for it.
If you have the mop attached it has no chance of climbing onto anything. Thatโs supposedly a โfeatureโ but when it gets into an area between two carpets and you watch it scoot back & forth repeatedly like a sad lost animal โฆyou kind of feel bad for it.
The โmopโ is just a gravity fed water reservoir with a removable (washable) cloth attached to the bottom. It doesnโt actually โmopโ anything, so much as give it a very gentle slightly damp dusting. It wouldnโt clean a single dirty footprint off of a hard floor if you ran it for 100 cycles. It would only spread a spill around if it came across one.
The mop function, honestly, is pretty useless unless you have dark hardwood floors that show dust everyday.
When itโs finished cleaning, it goes back to its charging station, which could be a problem if the charging station is kept on a wood floor or carpet with the mop reservoir full (& continuously damp). So, if youโre using the mop, you have to remember to take that attachment off soon after itโs finished cleaning (or damage your floor).
