Review on Robot vacuum cleaner Roborock S6/T6, white by Barbara Krakowiak ᠌
I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!
The vacuum cleaner uses up 18% of the battery and 30 minutes on 35 square meters. The application includes cleaning statistics, including total cleaning time, cleaned square footage, and launches. For two weeks, I experienced a bug where, when sent from the application, the charged robot drove off the base by a meter, got a little confused, claimed that the cleaning was finished, and then returned home. However, when I sent it to the room I intended, it completed the cleaning but then became disoriented and was unable to locate the base. It didn't occur once again. It appears that they advise against wearing it while using your hands because the application requires manual control. They advise against setting modes higher than "standard" for regular cleaning because, with a clogged filter, there is a chance that, after a certain amount of time (anti-record - 30 hours), you will need to replace the vacuum cleaner fan because, in the event of overload, the rotor is drawn to the base and begins to rub and melt. In order to shake out the dust and routinely replace the filter, I set myself to the "standard" setting. On surface floors (laminate, tiles), the vacuum cleaner works great (of course, subject to daily wet cleaning – I'm talking about myself), and because there are no carpets, I can't speak to how well it cleans those. The vacuum machine occasionally lifts the chairs and the table, although this happens far less frequently than with my previous robot vacuum cleaner. The MiHome application displays a map of the residence with the robot's travel path indicated on it with a delay of about five seconds. The robot carefully navigates around obstacles as it rides in parallel lines throughout the remaining space after passing over the contour of the room close to the walls and furnishings. Although I detest shine, it plays no specific part in this scene because the robot is virtually always seen standing silently in a corner while charging. I noticed recommendations to treat it lightly with antistatic, but I haven't taken the risk yet because the antistatic might suddenly harm the lidar or other sensors.
- 1. The standard of cleaning - in contrast to the old robot (and I purposefully made a comparison by releasing the old robot first, then S6 immediately after it), S6 collected quite a bit of trash, and after itself when I resumed it did not collect anything - so I did not miss anything. 2. Cleaning speed - completes the entire apartment in, on average, 30 minutes (the previous one rode until the battery died). 3. The noise level may be adjusted in 4 steps; at the lowest setting, it is practically undetectable from another room. 4. Everything is quite simple to remove and clean. 5. Wet cleaning mode - if you use it every day, it truly does make breathing better and keeps your feet clean (though of course, it can't be compared to a thorough scrub).
- 1. Only 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi; I'd prefer 5 GHz support (2.4 GHz in current homes is VERY congested; you need either a dual-band router or a separate 2.4 GHz access point for the robot). 2. The water tank is not very big; at maximum flow, it just covers 32 square meters. 3. Scheduled cleaning is only effective when the robot is connected to Wi-Fi; if the hotspot is turned off, cleaning will not occur. My old, extremely stupid robot vacuum did not even have Wi-Fi or GPS, but it still operated on a schedule, which is a very sad fact for me. 4. The only way to gain ROOT access to the system is by disassembling it; there is currently no software that can be corrupted. Nevertheless, I won't give up hope and won't erase the robot's firmware from version 3.5; it will only be on old firmware. As a geek, it would be fascinating to learn what this robot is made of. The vacuum cleaner's regular operation is unaffected by this, though. 5. The shiny top side became dusty after two weeks and appeared a little messy (just as any other glossy surface would).
