Review
The model was created by one of the largest manufacturers of such gadgets. Its main advantage is that, unlike its analogues, it does an excellent job of cleaning carpets, and collects the smallest dust on smooth surfaces. Thanks to its low height (76 mm), it also copes well with cleaning under furniture.
The range of robots is constantly expanding as the demand for home cleaners increases.

Modes
The robot has 4 of them:
- in auto mode, the automatic cleaner vacuums all available space with normal suction power, not forgetting long-pile surfaces, corners and surfaces under furniture;
- in the “borders” mode, it runs along the walls, cleaning with particular care near the baseboards and in the corners;
- spot. When turned on, the gadget cleans a specified limited area. He begins to remove from the center, moves in a spiral, gradually increasing the radius;
- maximum, i.e. when the device cleans at maximum power. This is relevant for places of heavy pollution.
In addition, the vacuum cleaner can clean at a strictly programmed time, which is very convenient. To activate it, just set the desired time using the remote control. The device will do the rest on its own. True, it is impossible to set a cleaning plan for the entire week, but given its low price, this cannot be demanded.

Pros: Great helper, collects hair and small debris. There are several cleaning modes, a maxi mode, and cleaning at a designated time.

Pros: Low, can fit everywhere
Cons: Doesn't clean neatly - it scatters crumbs all over the place and then can't get there. There is no normal setting for cleaning time - if you set a certain time, it will run every day until it turns off, starting from the specified time. The vaunted obstacle recognition system is marketing. He goes around the legs crookedly, some of them he doesn’t see (doesn’t depend on the color of the legs)
Comment: It's better to pay extra and get something better.

Pros: Price, bought for 6500 rubles. Build quality
Cons: This is not a vacuum cleaner, it's an electric broom! At first I cleaned well. A year later, the quality of cleaning has decreased. It constantly gets stuck if there are any objects (a bottle cap, a hair tie) on the floor (they appear due to the presence of a cat who always throws something off) since these objects stop the base of the brush. Attention, it does not suck up dust, it collects dust with a brush. Hemorrhoids with cleaning, if you have girls with long hair in your house, you will have to clean the brush once a week. It is not convenient to clean, even though it is completely removable; you have to take a knife or scissors to cut the hair. You start cutting and touch the bristles of the brush, and then cut them off too.
Comment: If you don’t have carpets at home or you don’t have enough carpeting, take a model without a brush, for example ilife v50

Remote controller
In addition to setting the time, the remote control serves to send it at the right time, i.e. use it like a radio-controlled toy.
It is known from practice that during cleaning it is not advisable to leave things, wires, toys on the floor. If he twists something on the brushes, he will begin to squeak pitifully, hoping for help.
Having completed cleaning or completely discharged, the gadget returns to the charging station. He always finds her.
Bottom line: Robotic vacuum cleaners are not cheap devices, but given their functionality, they fully justify their cost. It makes your home, including your carpets, much cleaner by removing debris, fur and hair. However, they are not able to carry out full wet cleaning.
