Neato Robotics 945-0079 XV Signature Automatic Robotic Vacuum
Neato XV Signature Review
Yes, the Neato does occasionally get hung up on floor cables. It can wedge itself into tight spaces and get caught. It is rather noisy, especially when it cleans bare floors. But who cares? This thing cleans as well as a powerful upright (I have a Dyson and a Miele), and it does so with very little human intervention.
The thing is programed and equipped to be tenacious. It really digs in to extract dirt and fur. While it will gently recoil from furniture, it will gamely push aside pillows, slippers, small pet bowls and other light-weight items that might lie in its path. (Once we understood its determination, my wife and I did a much better job of tidying the house and gathering up cords and cables.)
I have three cats. They are terrified when I pull out an upright vacuum. But for some reason they don't mind the Neato. I guess they see it as just another benign creature in the house.
Our unit seems to run for nearly 45 minutes. That's enough to clean a...
Best Vacuum I could have bought!
I've bought a lot of products, but this if the first I have left a review for. If you are considering a robot vaccum, then look no further then the Neato. I did a lot of research (including talking to several friends that own the Roomba vacuum, and Neato seemed to come out on top. Now that I have been using it, it's better then I expected from the reviews. Suction is fantastic. Navigation is smart (I have a 2,000sq ft home). It has no problem navigating between rooms.
Overall, if you can afford it, buy. You don't think you will be disappointed.
1st robot I've owned, and it's amazing!!!
Using this in a 1000sq foot condo with blend of carpet and wood floor. Programmed it for once weekly cleaning, and then some extra "on demand" cleanings as well. Must keep all electric cords off floor. Using magnetic boundary markers to keep it from getting stuck under our low couch. I hid the boundary markers under carpet, not noticeable but fully functional. I might buy another one of these for my office! Powerful suction, easy to clean filter.
