Not good product or value for money. It stopped after using few months . It stop charging after some time

Update, May 15, 2024: Today the new battery lasted 100 minutes. Update, May 8, 2024: I sent an email to the manufacturer explaining the battery situation and they sent me a new battery under warranty. Very poor manual because of very small illustrations which are not the same as on the robot, plus does not explain how to delete a setting. A fairly good robot though, cleans well but tends to remain in larger rooms, it starts in the living room of 1,500 sq.' apartment, manages to find the bedroom, but once it exits the bedroom it does not go back to finish the bedroom and washroom. My fix for this is to put it in the bedroom and close the door and let it run until it finishes the bedroom, then take it to the living room. It does not clean near the charging station. Very quiet, bumps very gently. When it is working beside you, you can still hold a conversation. It is very easy to clean the waste bin, roller, wheels and filter. I clean it and wipe off the machine each time I use it, which is twice a month. I find this vacuum very easy to use and clean. It usually runs for about 1.5 hours, then recharges. For $200.00 Canadian it is an okay value. It does not have the headaches and problems associated with programming using cell phones. I understand why manufacturers went that route, but it isn't good. TIPS: do one room at a time. The reason is that the robot learns the room and wastes less time learning multiple rooms. Give it plenty of time to fully recharge between uses. CLEAN IT, CLEAN IT, CLEAN IT after each use - remember to do the wheels, they pop out so easily.

11S Max Review First and foremost, when you're reading these reviews you will want pay attention to which vacuum they bought so that you know the reviews are about the one you're interested in. There are 3 or 4 different vacuums being reviewed on this same thread. Update 6\6\25: I noticed today why it tells you you should have six feet open space directly in front of the charging port: when the vacuum is returning home, she will go so many feet out away from the port so that she can turn around and line up to get on the charging nodes. In reality, I don't think she needs more than 4 ft... But there may be issues with her being able to turn around if there's anything blocking her. 6 ft is a lot of space, so you might be able to get away with 4 to 5, depending on your setup. Otherwise, you would have to use the remote to manually return her to the station, or pick her up and put her on the charger yourself. Not having the space is not a deal-breaker, it just means you will less of the "auto" features. Today I did let her run until her battery got low and she maneuvered herself back to the charger without any assistance. I also want to say she is doing a pretty job at cleaning. I'm used to having to sweep and then mop the floors... But after letting her run through the whole apartment for 2 days, when I'm up today it was such a nice smooth process. I didn't get a bunch of debris and hair and other things clogged in the mop (which we all know can cause problems like scratching on your floors). This little vacuum is a blessing! If I'm not mistaken I believe her paperwork said that she uses about 40 watts of energy... Like a light bulb... when charging. I would think that that means that her energy usage, while charging, is equivalent to leaving a lamp on. Original Review: I literally just got this vacuum this morning and only did a test run for about 20 minutes. A big reason why I didn't let it go all over the apartment is because I'm still in the process of moving and I have packaging everywhere on the floors, creating too many obstacles. With that being said, so far so good. I just let her run around in "Auto Mode" and she worked great. Yes, my robot vacuum is a "she." I named her Suki, as she "Suki a lot of dirt." Plus Suki is a name for "loved one," and I love her already!! I swore up and down I was never going to be one of those people who have one of these... and here we are. And I probably never would have if I had not stayed with my sister and her husband for several months when I first moved to a new State. They have one and I really noticed how much a difference it makes and keeping up with pet hair and everything else. What seemed like really haphazard navigation ended up being a lot more mapped out than it first appeared. While it look like she was just going in random directions with no uniform, I did start to notice that she was not going over the exact same path upon return. So, somehow, it's working to where I can tell the machine is covering everywhere. It definitely appears to be mapping while it's in use, but I know it does not store mapping. That's a big part of the need for Wi-Fi with other robot vacuums. I did notice that a couple people were complaining in the reviews about her constantly vacuuming just the edges by the wall... This is probably because they didn't realize that she was in that mode. Because you can literally make it so that she focuses only on the borders. There's quite a few nifty features that you can program the vacuum to do... And it even has a scheduling option so that you can schedule the vacuum to go off at whatever time you want (as well as a way to cancel the schedules if things change). Overall, pretty nifty. It does what I need it to do, and that's all that matters to me. I don't need a bunch of fancy features. My apartment is just under 800 square feet; therefore, I don't need it to do special mapping to try to remember where it left off after a charge. It's pretty much going to get the whole place on one charge. One MAJOR reason why I selected this, (outside of the lower cost) is because it does NOT require an app or Wi-Fi connection (in fact you absolutely cannot connect this particular vacuum to an app or Wi-Fi, so if that is what you're looking for this is not the vacuum for you). Sure, with an app you can do things like trigger her to start running before you even get home from work... But, quite honestly, that doesn't even matter to me. Because, if I learned anything from watching my sister and her husband's pricier, self emptying robot vacuum? It's that these things are constantly getting themselves into trouble and you need to be there to rescue them, anyway (which is a total drain on their battery if you aren't there to save them). So, there's no reason why I would need the robot vacuum to run while I'm not home. On a side note... I found it quite hilarious that the instructions say that you should not place her near the stairs or a cliff. And I was scratching my head wondering how many people with fortresses were buying these things. 😂😂😂 And speaking of running... Very quiet. I would have to say that my stand up floor fan is way louder than this thing. The AC unit is louder than this thing. I would assume that some of that has to do with the fact that the suction is not superior in this thing, as it's only at 2000 (really pricey robot vacuums are around 4,000). However, I have laminate floors (fake wood flooring in a linoleum-type flooring) and the throw rug in my living room is one of those very low profile new kind that are washable, which is comparable to a thick blanket. Speaking of the area rug... This thing had no problem going up and over and onto it regardless what angle she approached the rug. Sometimes she came onto the carpet straight on and other times she came up on to the carpet at an angle. And she didn't even blink an eye! As stated before, I only took her for a test run and she picked up so much "tuck" in that short timeframe. I was thrilled that she even got all the little itty bitty popcorn pieces from all the styrofoam my furniture and other items were delivered in. It's like no matter how careful you are taking things out of the boxes those little tiny popcorn pieces get everywhere and they are so impossible to sweep up. Keep in mind I had, just the night before, swept and mopped most of the area that she ran over today in her test run and there was still that much stuff in her canister The canister is very easy to remove. You don't have to flip her upside down or anything. You just push down on the little release button with your thumb and pop it out. That is also where you will find a filter that you can clean out. Read the manual that comes with it throughout. It's very helpful on how to keep her clean or else she won't work properly. I love the remote. She got stuck trying to go over packaging from my couches that was on the floor. When she didn't get the clue that she needed to back up and try something else, I just held down the down button for backwards and she totally backed up like a remote control car. I just pushed the right arrow button and she turned in that direction and I let it go and she took off. That was so awesome! When I felt that I had seen enough I decided to go ahead and use the remote to return her back to her charging station. She immediately responded (didn't seem to want to respond to the remote commands when she was in another room, though). Once you push the button to send her home to charge, she will start moving slower. I think this is just the devices way of being very accurate in homing in on her docking station so that she can properly align for a proper charge. And speaking of our proper charge when I first unpackaged her I had to put her on the charger to charge her fully as it is recommended in the instructions before use. And I noticed at some point the orange light wasn't flashing which is what tells you she's charging. So I just hit the auto button as if I was going to send her out to suck up my dirt... And after she got a couple feet away from the dock I just hit the return button on the remote so that she could get on the dock properly. Work like a charm... didn't have any issues with the charging stopping at that point. So I really can't comment on longevity for the battery or parts. But I will say it would be wise to purchase spare brushes and filters for down the road just so that you have them when you need them. Because these things do wear down with use. The more you use it the quicker it's going to wear down. Just a heads up. But these are not a "one-time purchase and forget about it," just like most bagless vacuums require maintenance and upkeep. There was some damage to the box that it came in.... Not sure if it matters or not. If anything changes I will try to remember to come back and update this review. I did purchase an extra 2-year warranty just to be on the safe side.

This machine is too dumb, unfortunately. Gets tangled and stuck on even the shallow doorways that my previous machine never had a problem with. The brush somehow gets easily knocked off so it ends up doing a whole room ineffectively, and its very noisy! So disappointed in it but now I'm beyond the return window.

I have had this unit for over a year now, so this review reflects significant experience. First: I like it. I'd buy it again, though with a constantly changing market, my next one may be different. Second: Why four stars and not five? If I were basing my opinion strictly on value for price, it would be a five. If I were basing my review strictly on first-month performance, it would be a five. But, overall, over the course of a year, it just doesn't quite make a five-star rating. Third: The ONE MAJOR FLAW (could be included under "Why fours stars" above): This unit relies on 3 infrared drop sensors to avoid falling down stairs, or similar mishaps. You can see them when you turn it over. They are just like any other infrared close-proximity sensor in any other device (such as the pellet bin of a pellet stove) – they can tell whether or not there is SOMETHING, anything, within a certain distance, in this case, roughly the 1/4" between the sensor and the floor. If that distance is too large, then the device can reasonably infer that it is about to roll over a cliff, stop, and back up, which is exactly what it does. The problem comes when the machine has been in use for a while, and becomes covered with a slight layer of fine dust, and then later, when, through normal wear and tear, the red plastic lenses of the sensors develop very very fine scratches. Once either or both of these things happens, the sensors can no longer reliably tell how far away the floor is, and will stop the unit right in the middle of the floor in response to some tiny irregularity, or for no clear reason at all. If they're really getting dirty, the unit will stop, then slowly, cautiously back away, carefully looking in either direction as it backs up, but if they're really dirty, it will sense another drop and stop again, and slowly back itself into a nonexistent corner, which looks like nothing as much as a person hallucinating being attacked by demons and trying to escape. The sensors can be wiped with your finger, or with a sponge or towel, which will work for a while, but after a few months, they will develop fine scratches, and the machine will never perform properly. The solution to this was to use some extremely fine plastic polish to polish each sensor lens, which will ALMOST, but not quite, restore the machine's original function. I have an small hallway with an old wood floor with small gaps between some floorboards, and the machine can no longer operate there for more than a minute without becoming trapped in an imaginary net. If your floors are all very smooth and even, this may never be a problem for you, but if you live in a real house, it will happen sooner or later. The Good: • It still cleans the floor after more than a year of daily use. • After a year, the battery is still good. • It has survived several rounds of knocking a heavy wood cutting board that is propped against a wall on top of itself, with no apparent injury. • It has no camera, no microphone, and does not connect to my cell phone, WiFi, or the internet. The Bad: • This is a mindless unit. It does not map, it does not plan, it does not recognize messes or spills – it takes a completely random walk, invoking various subroutines when certain conditions are encountered, such as "follow the wall," which is also "go around the chair leg," "try persistently to get over the door threshold, and then give up if you can't," and "back away slowly and cautiously from the edge of the abyss," all of which are disturbingly engrossing to watch. • I wouldn't call it "quiet." It's not noisy, but if I wake up in the middle of the night, I can hear it several rooms away. • Its distress alert is earsplitting and persistent. It will issue ten loud sets of beeps if (when) it gets in trouble. This is very annoying at night, when you're trying to sleep, but it can be very helpful if you happen to be up when it gets lost somewhere you'd never think to look for it. • If it gets lost in the middle of the night, there is no way to find it when you come along in the morning. It has no "Find-My" feature. Once it crawled into a reusable supermarket bag under a table and the bag fell closed behind it, and I spent over an hour looking for it. For the most part, though, it tends to get stuck in the same places, so it's not hard to find. • Its filter is not well sealed against its mounting, so that it will suck some dust past the filter, which, over the course of months, will coat the entire inside and outside of the unit with fine dust, which can be sponged or vacuumed off, but which will immediately return. • This dust, by getting into everything, will get into the (almost-never-used) on-off switch, causing it to stop turning the unit on. This can be remedied by popping the switch out and spraying it with contact cleaner. • The dust tray is hinged. The hinges will break off, unless the hinge pins fall out and into the garbage first. There is NO NEED to replace the dust tray when this happens – it works just fine with the hinges broken and is easier to tap the dirt out of. • It can be disassembled and repaired, but, because many of the screws tend to strip out the threads of the plastic they're attached to, it can probably only be disassembled once. My experiences with this unit: • It worked well out of the box. Setup was minimal and simple. Instructions were pointless and confusing. • Its strategy is that if you randomly roll around a room long enough, you will go over every point on the floor at least once. This strategy works. • It cannot clean the final ~1" of corners, because it and its spinning corner brush are round. This is generally not a big deal. • It will clean places you were never able to reach with a normal vacuum – way under very low furniture, for example. • Initially, it very seldom got stuck anywhere, but over time, it seems to have become less capable of mounting several fairly high door thresholds, so it bounces along them, and often half-climbs them and gets stuck. • If the dog pukes and it runs right through it... well... 'nuff said. • You can frequently vacuum the vacuum with a soft brush attachment, but if you don't its performance seems the same. • The one mechanical failure I had in a year was the spinner brush motor stripped its gears. It still spun for a while, but made a terrible noise. I bought a replacement motor unit on... Amazon... for about $20 and followed video instructions to replace it. It was a bit involved, but I was able to do it in about an hour, and it's worked fine since then. Good luck!
