Features and models of Neato robotic vacuum cleaners

Robotic vacuum cleaners are supplied by a number of different companies. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a specific brand as carefully as possible. Let's see what Neato can offer to the consumer.

To start the review, it is worth looking at the flagship version - Neato Botvac D7 Connected... This model is suitable for any gender. She is also distinguished by the ability to work for a long time. Control is carried out both using buttons and via Wi-Fi. The advanced bottom brush not only cleans the floor effectively, but also works quietly.

Metal inserts placed on the case increase its strength. Directly from a smartphone, you can set virtual boundaries and direct the robot in one direction or another. The package includes a pair of replacement filters. And not just filters, but devices that hold small dust particles. The double pass function has been implemented, which allows you to bring better order.

The developers have tried to improve laser scanning and optimize the algorithm for building virtual maps. Such innovations make it possible to increase the accuracy of orientation. The total area of ​​the floor to be cleaned reaches 450 sq. m.

Other characteristics are as follows:

• battery with a capacity of 4200 mAh;
• typical petal brush;
• power cord 1.8 m long;
• petal-bristly brush;
• another brush for side cleaning;
• bounding marker included.

If you need not a flagship, but just an effective model with significant operating time, you need to choose the Neato Botvac D5 Connected robot vacuum cleaner. This unit is characterized by a very simple and elegant operation. The package includes a bristly-petal brush. It helps to clean not only smooth floors, but also carpets. A mode of especially gentle cleaning is provided, which helps to put things in order in a room with fragile objects.

The Ultra Performance standard filter retains even the smallest dust particles. A double pass is provided, which helps to improve the quality of cleaning. As in the previous version, modern methods of laser scanning of space are used. With a vacuum cleaner, you can clean up to 420 sq. m. The sound volume during operation is 70 dB. The duration of the cleaning session is up to 2 hours. The company gives a guarantee up to 12 months. The dry weight of the product is 3.35 kg. The device is recommended for putting things in order in large apartments and private houses.

Neato D3 Connected - robot vacuum cleaner suitable for regular cleaning in small spaces. The brushes are the same as in previous models. As befits a high-tech device, there are high-quality mobile applications. They allow access to the maximum number of functions at any distance. The filter complies with all standards, if necessary, it only needs to be cleaned dry. The modest looking gray body hides quite adequate and modern "stuffing". The total harvesting area reaches 160 sq. m. This version is not equipped with a side brush. The battery capacity is 2100 mAh. There is no bounding marker.

Botvac D85 - a model of a vacuum cleaner designed for cleaning various hairs. It is recommended for use in homes where there are pets of any coat length. The device differs from other versions in the most complete set. The latest generation filter is three times more efficient than traditional filters. Supplied with a 2m bounding marker.

The Botvac D85 is designed in such a way that even after prolonged use, scratches are almost invisible. Feedback suggests that the geometry of the robot reduces the risk of getting stuck. The design characteristics of the model are assessed positively, as well as the thoughtfulness of the design. Even if the vacuum cleaner is forced to "park" in the base crookedly, the charging efficiency does not decrease. It should be noted that remote recognition of obstacles makes any object that reflects radiation an insurmountable barrier.

In comparison with similar products from other companies, the vacuum cleaner performs well. Although sometimes not the first time (according to test results), it cleans the floor. iClebo Arte, for example, is not capable of this, and leaves up to 25% dirt, and Clever & Clean - up to 8%.

As you can easily see, this manufacturer produces solid equipment that meets all modern requirements. Vacuum cleaners are clearly divided into niches - each for its own field of application... But in order to choose the right model correctly, one must take into account the basic requirements for such units. And also discard fairly common myths. So, do not assume that the robot vacuum cleaner will take over all the house cleaning.

Mechanisms without side brushes are not suitable for cleaning corners. If you have to clean a lot of hard-to-reach areas, this parameter should be kept in mind. The absence of UV lamps is characteristic of any model from Neato and other leading manufacturers. And rightly so - there is no evidence that this device really helps fight infection. But the harm of ultraviolet radiation is beyond doubt.

Also recommend:

• pay attention to the area that can be removed in one session;
• take into account the height of the overcome thresholds;
• buy vacuum cleaners with capacious dust collectors only for large apartments or dwellings where there are pets.
