Bissell SpinWave Pet Robot US

Product Information

When this unit runs, it does a good job. I wanted this for the mop to work in tandem with another robot vacuum. I could definitely tell my floors were cleaner. This did a good job of identifying where rugs were and avoiding them. It does a good job of mapping the layout of my home, like most vacuums with LiDAR. If you have younger kids, you'll need to clean up toys and clutter from the floor first and larger bits of dropped food, but otherwise it should work OK on wet and dry messes. There is a sanitizing solution you can buy for use with the mop tank, too. From there, it walks you through the setup process. Press Get Started, select the SpinWave Robot from the list, turn it on if you haven't already done so, and press OK. The app then instructs you to locate a QR code under the dustbin and scan it with your phone to start the pairing process. No matter how you run the Bissell SpinWave R5, it is surprisingly quiet as it maxes out at just 60dB when in use. While certainly not silent, it's not distracting in the same way as a typical vacuum and is much quieter than other robot vacuums I've used, particularly budget and mid-priced Roomba models. It would sometimes randomly stop because it had an error for not being able to locate the base in the middle of a scheduled cleaning. Pushing either the clean button or home button would get it to working again.

Households that are not very cluttered will fare better. If you tend to store things on the floor or hide stuff under furniture, you would need to declutter a bit for best effect. Do a good floor clean before using this robot. Since this is better for maintenance, you’ll get better results. But I had too many issues with this that I decided to return it. It would constantly drop wifi connection. When this happened, it would not run according to the programmed schedule.If you hate mopping and also happen to loathe cleaning the shower, tub, or any other similar surface, the Samsung Jetbot Mop might be the robotic helper of your dreams. Because of the two spinning pads on the bottom and a handle on top, this versatile robot can scrub the gunk off of tile, vinyl, laminate, or hardwood floors with little help on your part. As mentioned, it also doubles as a handheld cleaning tool for washing your walls. It doesn't offer some of the perks of pricier competitors, such as app or voice control, but it's still worth a spot on your short list because of its niche capabilities. We also like the "spot" cleaning feature, where you set it in one area, and it runs in increasing and then decreasing circles thoroughly around that spot (about a 3-foot diameter area) for a deeper clean, either in vacuum or mop mode. With sensors and a front bumper, when you start the robot, it just heads out and figures out a way to cover 90-95% or more of most floor spaces around most obstacles. It can detect some obstacles and avoid bumping into them, but even when it does bump, it is very gentle and there has been zero damage to baseboards or furniture.

Dry vacuuming performance is excellent. Definitely not as good as with our Miele cannister vac, but we have to use the Miele way way less now. It easily removes crumbs, hair, fur, bulkier items up to the size of about a large marble, smaller leaves, pine needles, and definitely dust dust bunnies. The carpets look fresh vacuumed texture-wise, too. The Ecovacs Deebot Ozmo N8 Pro+ excels at both mopping and vacuuming, making it an excellent choice for homes with multiple flooring types. In testing, it had no problem traversing tile, laminate, and carpet, or the transition strips that separate them. With 2,600Pa of suction power and the ability to empty its own dustbin into a hypoallergenic bag, it's also a compelling option for allergy sufferers and pet owners.On-demand spray trigger allows you to control the amount of water and detergent that gets applied to the floor. Works equally well on hard floors, vinyl, tile, wood, and on carpet, and mopping performance good (but not as good as a human) This is a handy feature that’s rarely found on comparable models. On some other units, the manufacturer recommends that you fold the edges of area rugs underneath themselves to stop a carpet robo-cleaner from rolling over them when they’re mopping. However, this ridiculous solution is totally unnecessary when you have a machine like the SpinWave on the job. Sleek Design

Let’s say you have height differences between types of flooring in your home (for example, between a low-pile carpet and a hardwood floor). In that case, you’ll be glad to hear that the Bissell SpinWave can handle these transitions without any loss of operational performance. When it reaches the edge of a rug, it simply turns around in the other direction. It can even detect and avoid carpeting in mopping mode. That way, your carpets won’t get unnecessarily wet.Because it has all the features of the standard Roomba j7+–a self-emptying dustbin, AI-powered obstacle avoidance, and a poop-evasion guarantee–in addition to mopping abilities, the Combo j7+ is an excellent option for homes with a mix of hard floors and carpeting. Some high-end competitors on this list offer more scrubbing oomph and require less mop maintenance, but the Combo j7+ is a top choice for efficient double-duty cleaning runs. We think you still need to do a detail/base clean about once or twice a month using your regular vacuum and steam mop, but the robot is great for everyday maintenance The Spinwave comes with 2 scrubby pads and 2 soft touch pads. It also comes with two 8 oz. bottles of multi-surface formula cleaning solution. Battery life is also important; the size of your home determines what is sufficient. The longer the robot mop can run on one charge, the better it is for larger homes. We consider a battery life of 60 minutes to be sufficient for small homes and apartments, though, ideally, we like to see results in the 90-minute range. To test battery life, we fully charge the robot before running a cleaning cycle. We then let it clean for as long as it takes to completely run down the battery.
