Neato Robotics BotVac 85 - Pros & Cons

it clean and always checked the roller
quick
easy
and mess-free
easy to swap-out brushes
simple and straightforward

robot vacuum for pet hair - and was also good in our at-home tests
very effective
and very inexpensive robot vacuum
simple and convenient to access
relatively quiet and fast operator as well
fast and thorough
Wyze app is easy to navigate and intuitive to use
intelligent and gentle cleaner
capable and affordable robot vacuum
It was very easy to use

the boundary marking feature is a really nice touch

left dirt on the floor in the patterns where it did NOT clean
with small
heavy particles on carpet
have separate home and spot cleaning buttons
filters
not true HEPA filters
lacking smart home connectivity
These tend not to perform as well as dedicated machines
some models even feature object recognition
No-go zones - If you have the mapping technology
it slows down on this surface and could become stuck
high performance filter
low-lying coffee tables
when hair would become clumped up behind the bearings of the brush
The technology is still not perfect though
to reducing electricity bills and wasted energy
D85 would only vacuum for around 1 hour
how long the vacuum would operate for before returning the to charging dock
kept getting lost and going over and over the same area
only had a smooth run for ONE month
bin lid and turn the power on
the filter gets unbelievably dirty
the battery needs to be changed after around 18months
did not handle the sand well at all
fall far behind
a lot of sand was stuck in and around the bumper
