WYZE Robot Vacuum with LIDAR Mapping Technology, 2100Pa Suction, No-go Zone, Wi-Fi Connected, Self-Charging, Ideal for Pet Hair, Hard Floors and Carpets

This was my first experience with a robot vacuum and I got to admit I was skeptical on the quality of the device, it's ability to "map" my cleaning area and properly and powerfully clean. But boy, was I amazed!The LIDAR used on this device to map your floorplan is amazing and a bit scary. You charge it up and set it on it's way to conduct its first vacuum and it will make a full scale model of your floor plan that shows up on the App used to control the device. All the walls, furniture, nooks and crannies, it sees them all. And if it doesnt see them the "bump sensors" will help it figure it out and navigate them.The cleaning and build quality on this device is fantastic as well - even on thick shag or higher pile carpeting, this little tank of a machine will make multiple attempts to traverse it and pick up all dirt in its path.What you'll find in the overkill HEPA filtered dust / dirt chamber will amaze you. It even picked up a wayward no-show sock the other day and kept on going.They've thought of everything, even including a handy duster brush with built in hair cutter to remove the stray hairs that may collect around the wheels and or dust bin.The machine and app very clearly tell and show you what the vacuum is doing at any given moment, so there's no guess work involved. Just make sure you have your house set up to allow the device as much access to the space you want cleaned as possible.And I love how you can select the room(s) you want cleaned. It's great to be able to "set it and forget it" while you go make food, take a shower, let the dog out, etc. It's a true time saver in the home.This is the second WYZE product I've purchased. They seem to make great products at very reasonable price points. Highly recommend.

It vacuums well, it mostly navigates fine without bumping into walls, it is thorough, you can tell it to spot clean from the app and set schedules, and even tell it to vacuum specific rooms. At this price, it's a great deal and I would buy again.However, it does get caught on my rug pretty frequently, and can get caught on things at just the right height. Luckily you can set no go zones in the app so it won't go to the objects it can't avoid.The only other issue is that it will sometimes get confused and think it passed through a wall and entered a sort of mirror version of the room. This can cause unexpected behavior like not avoiding no go zones, cleaning areas multiple times, and failing to return home. While this is annoying, it's worth it for the price, features, and performance.

The media could not be loaded. I purchased the Wyze Robot Vacuum after visiting a relative's house over the holidays. They raved about its cleaning ability, reliability, and great battery life, and I was convinced to get one for myself.Pros:- The suction power is impressive and effectively picks up dirt and debris.- The app functions very well, making it easy to control the vacuum and set schedules.- The no-go zones and LiDAR mapping work excellently, allowing for precise navigation around my home.Cons:- The biggest stumbling block for me is the vacuum's inability to climb wooden thresholds on my floors. My home has multiple transitions from tile to laminate floors, and the vacuum struggles to get over these bumps. I often have to nudge it to help it over the thresholds.- At my relative's house, this was a non-issue because they had no transitions, so the vacuum performed flawlessly.Unfortunately, I had to return it because of this issue and will be looking for something that can get over the bumps more easily. Overall, I wish the Wyze Robot Vacuum was designed with more traction to handle these floor transitions better. Despite this, it remains a solid choice for homes with uniform flooring.

Our new robot overlord has arrived, and we call her Bertha. Bertha was very easy to set up and runs very happily through our home.In all honesty, we're horrible house keepers. I get sick of cleaning, the 12 year old rebels against it, the husband cleans in spurts every few months and the quadrupeds (a dog and 2 cats) are utterly useless. As I work towards being a better house keeper and drag the family along I figured it would be nice to have little help. So I ordered Bertha. She helps me remember to straiten up and takes care of the sweeping for me. This is how she is taking over our lives and forcing us to be better at humaning. Stinking robotic overlord!In all seriousness here are some pros and consPros-really not that loud even on the standard setting-quite thorough (although I've really only had her work on hard floors)-easy to clean-works pretty quickly-good suction-mapped each room pretty well and avoided the basement stairs like a pro-her talking voice is nice and soothing as it lulls us into submission to do things like save her or tell us she's charging.Cons-natural enemy of stringy toys that might have been left around by creatures or kids-quick mapping is a little wonky-best to just let her map while working-if you accidently allow her into a place where you don't want her (like a child's bedroom) then close the door to block her from returning in the same clean it's kind of tricky to convince her to move along and ignore the death trap of a roomOverall. Great product so far. I'll try to update when we've been serving our overlord for longer than a day or two.EDIT: well it's been a month now since our new robotic overlord has come to stay with us and it's going quite well. Bertha does a good job of vacuuming all of our hard floor spaces according to the schedule we set and sometimes when we just run her an extra time. The natural enemies of the robot vacuum are dropped face masks and charging cords. It's a little cumbersome to untangle these things from the vacuum bits but not so bad-and really we should pay more attention to them before Bertha is tangled.New Pros: Bertha fits under the beds and gets to those places that I would typically forget about. She also does her best to clean up stuffed animal fluff left behind by the dog.Con (ish): It was a little clunky to block off areas from her grasp and that led to her knocking out the wifi a couple of timesStill would recommend this little machine to anyone. It is saving a lot of fights in the house over sweeping. Oh! And the dog is getting progressively less terrified of it even if the cats still run and hide when Bertha is running.
