Review on ๐Ÿ’ก Enhanced Connectivity and Self-Charging Controls of ECOVACS N79S by Charlie Conner

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Absolutely worth it!

I've read reviews that said 'okay but you still need to sweep/vacuum'. This really confused me (does it work or not?) so let me be clear: I have three young children and I run Deebot (R2Dbot) in the afternoons and after dinner. I fold and move all the dining room chairs because under the table is the worst. My table has 6 legs. If I go downstairs after he's walked all the way (and usually finds the house himself) I might notice 3 things/areas he missed. I'm not worried about her. I just run it again after lunch and it grabs what it left before but skips cereal here or popcorn there. I used to sweep twice a day and vacuum at least every other day. Now I sweep once a week (hard to reach corners and clay/lettuce/wet ground wheat that Deebot can't pick up) and vacuum maybe once a month. I really like it when someone helps here and it's so easy for me to keep the floors clean. It is easily removed from carpets, rugs, tiles and hardwood. He pushes big things aside and mostly maneuvers in difficult situations. It doesn't do well on carpets, so I just pick them up before I start (when I'm sweeping, anyway). It handles my entire main floor (kitchen, dining room, living room, laundry room, bathroom, playroom, and entryway) without much trouble. About a day later, he has to be rescued because he ate a giant rubber band, got stuck on the carpet, or couldn't get out from under a chair. Since I run it so often and the kids like to press the start button, it doesn't bother me. Bonus: It's fun. Did you know that it has a remote control that you can use to control it like a remote control car? My older kids love it. My 2 year old son finally has a best friend. He follows the Dibot and laughs at him as he crashes into the wall. The only thing that paid off was the babysitting. I also think it's great that I can use it to motivate children: "Oh no! Let's collect these toys before Dibot eats them!" #Victory
