Review on Wi-Fi Connected iRobot Roomba E5 (5150) Robot Vacuum - Works with Alexa, Ideal for Pet Hair, Carpets and Hard Floors - Self-Charging, Black by Mohd Taufik ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best thing for the money, Im glad I chose this option.

He came to replace the Roomba 563, which served faithfully for 8 years, periodically changing batteries and components. The area of ​​​​the apartment is only 65 sq. M., so I don’t see the point in overpaying for 960, 980. Considered between the 800 series, the fact that the new e5 eventually outweighed in terms of the purchase decision. You can compare at least how much Roomba with other robotic vacuum cleaners, but this model, like the 800, 900 series, has no analogues. In almost every third-party model there are uncomfortable tufted brushes. e5 is essentially a new generation of the 600 series. The 900 models run a little quieter, last longer, have more features in the application. The robot justifies itself completely like its predecessor. The main thing is to keep it charging around the clock and clean it fully at least once a week. In general, iRobot for me is the iPhone in the world of robots :)

Pros
  • First of all, what catches the eye is the new brush block with green scraper rollers. Rollers are much more efficient than a fluffy brush and practically do not get dirty themselves. The fluffy brush must be regularly cleaned of tangled hair and wool. A container that can be rinsed under water. The motor is now in the body of the robot, and not in the container as it was before. The application is no longer know-how, but I know firsthand that on iRobot robots it works more stable than any analogues and is regularly improved. I used to think that the application for the robot is overkill and there is no need for it. Now when the robot throws off the message that it has finished cleaning and the information of the remaining charge in it, you understand in which room you can still drive it or send it to charge. Even the number of heavily polluted places reports. 2022 language, not only in the application. Equipment. An additional filter could not but rejoice, a 2in1 motion limiter. Although without it, they could make the robot even more accessible.
Cons
  • Fully plastic bumper as on models of the 600 series, dust is electrified if there is a lot of it and the robot is not used regularly. New battery form factor and 1800 mAh capacity. iRobot robots have always attracted the fact that most of the components and batteries are interchangeable between models. I thought I'd finish the battery from the old robot, and then I'll start a new one. The cutout in the robot under the battery very much allows you to do this, but not the contacts.

I really like the green roller, which does not roll on hair and wool. Previously, it was necessary to clean it manually, but here everything goes right inside. Although the container is small, debris and dust are well pressed.
