​Should You Buy A Robotic Vacuum Cleaner?

Robot Vacuums

Cleaning the floors in your home can be a time-consuming task especially now that everything in life is so fast paced & we all have busy lives. Many people have started to use a robot vacuum to do the job, so they don't have to worry about at least one job!

A robotic vacuum cleaner is programmed for cleaning and has a certain degree of user autonomy. Just like other forms of vacuum cleaner, this little “Robbie Robot” is designed to clean all dirt and dust from tiles, carpets, and hardwood floors.

Robotic vacuums have become more popular in many homes these days, not only because they’ve become more affordable, but mostly because they have become more efficient at what they do!.

What Are the Advantages of Robot Vacuums?

Using a robotic vacuum is one of the best and most efficient ways of minimising the amount of time and energy you use in cleaning the floors in your home.

Ease of Use

Robotic vacuum cleaners are incredibly simple to use. You just have to program your device to clean up a particular room or space, set the timer on, and place your robotic vacuum and its charging/docking station in a suitable location in your home. . It contains various sensors, edge brushes and rollers, which allow it to clean independently over carpets and hard floors, so you can just leave it to whizz around by itself, while you are doing other things, taking a breather or fast asleep!!.

Over the years, robotic vacuums have become more reliable and effective, particularly with the increasing amounts of hard floors in homes and Thanks to advances in technology, you would be less concerned about anything going wrong with your unit. (Unless the dog has made a mess in the front room……but that's for another blog post…..)

Highly Effective

Designed to do various vacuuming tasks, in some cases even wet mopping, the robotic vacuums available these days don’t just clean, but they can also learn and remember room layouts and even make their way back to their charge point themselves, some even have self emptying dustbins into the docking station.

They can shift without manually changing the settings between carpeted and bare floors or can even be operated remotely using mobile applications.

Minimal Upkeep

Compared with traditional vacuums, robotic vacuums only need minimal maintenance-they do need to be emptied regularly as they don’t have big dust bins.

What you would need to do is just to empty the dustbin. The filters in robotic vacuums should be replaced every 3 months or so and the brushes should be checked for wear quite regularly so you get the best cleaning performance. See our filter and brush kits HERE

You should also make sure your floors are free of clutter and barriers, as well as other things that might potentially harm your device.

Time Saving

One of the most appealing perks of having a robot vacuum cleaner is that when the vacuum is working, you do not have to be there. So, if you are a busy person, it can save you an awful lot of time since it does not need to be supervised

There are also models that let you remotely activate them using a tablet or phone while you're away, allowing you to dedicate more time to other things that are more important to you, like sunbathing!

Identifies All Types of Dirt

Robotic vacuums can handle all sorts of dirt on all surface types. Considering their small size, today robotic vacuums are improving in terms of cleaning performance Through improvements in suction power, brush and roller design.

The robots can also identify the level of cleaning needed in various circumstances via built-in sensors and will go over certain areas time and again, until everything is clean.

Sets Boundaries

Perfect for boundary detection, a robotic vacuum is equipped with sensors and a protective buffer to protect itself from being harmed as well as avoid damaging any of your lovely furniture. It can sense stairs and walls, turning around instantly when it comes across them.

Some high-end robots can also create a real-time map and design a route to make cleaning more effective and complete.

Small and lightweight

Robotic vacuums are smaller than most types of vacuum cleaners and can be conveniently placed in almost any storage area like under your bed. It is perfect for homes with limited space or attempting to downsize their properties.

Because of their size, these vacuums can move around easily. They can get underneath your furniture as well, and access areas where a standard vacuum cleaner could not.

Ideal for People with Mobility Issues

Owning a robotic vacuum cleaner is a big help for those with mobility issues, like the elderly and disabled. Individuals with disabilities or problems with mobility can turn to these devices as a less expensive option to getting a cleaner in.

A robotic vacuum can be a revolutionary tool for these people, with its hands-free operation and convenient usability. It can be set to clean as often as needed with minimal upkeep required.

Helps Faster House Cleaning

A robotic vacuum cleaner is a perfect tool for helping you reduce the hours you spend on house cleaning since it is self-sufficient and can operate on its own. As your robotic vacuum cleans your floors, it gives you more time to focus on cleaning up the other parts of your home. Doing so will make the work faster and more efficient.
