Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum Cleaner

The body is made of white plastic with a matte uncoated surface. On the one hand, this is good, since the light robot is noticeable in the dark and on a dark floor, so it is easier to find it, for example, under the sofa when it gets stuck there, and the robot is less likely to be accidentally stepped on, on the other hand, the white matte bottom is easy gets dirty and difficult to clean.

This Chinese robot vacuum cleaner is equipped with an advanced orientation system based on the most reliable method - remote detection of obstacles and their configuration using a scanning laser rangefinder. The robot received a capacious lithium-ion battery, a powerful fan and support for remote monitoring and control using a mobile application, which, among other things, has the function of visualizing the built map of the room and the trajectory of the robot.

The design of the Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum Cleaner robot vacuum cleaner is similar to similar vacuum cleaners from other manufacturers, but it also has a number of its distinctive features.

The robot has a round shape. Its body is made of white plastic, the surface is matte and uncoated, therefore, it requires careful use and needs additional care. The surface of the lid, which is located on top and covers the predominant part of the top panel, is also white, but made mirror-smooth.

Conveniently, thanks to the white color, Xiaomi Mi is clearly visible even in the dark: there is no risk of accidentally stepping on it, and it will also be easy to find it under the furniture if it suddenly gets stuck somewhere.

A convex laser distance sensor (rangefinder) is located on top of the body, which allows the device to analyze the room where the surface is being cleaned, build its map, and also choose the optimal movement pattern. Here, in the upper part, there are two main mechanical buttons for controlling the robot vacuum cleaner: the "power" button and the "home" button.

The front of the vacuum cleaner has a mechanical bumper with an obstacle proximity sensor. The back of the vacuum cleaner is equipped with two contact pads, air blowing, and a speaker to alert you to the status of the device.

Under the lid of the robot vacuum cleaner there is a transparent plastic trash can. The tank is very convenient to use, because its fullness is immediately visible. In addition, there is a special small protrusion for the finger in the case for easy removal.

The Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum Cleaner has twelve types of sensors that make the vacuum cleaner work as efficient as possible. The robot is distinguished by excellent maneuverability, and well-thought-out wheel dimensions allow the device to easily overcome small obstacles in its path. The maximum height declared by the manufacturer to overcome obstacles is 18 millimeters, which is a lot.

The vacuum cleaner will clean the area of ​​the apartment until the battery charge reaches below twenty percent. After that, it will return to the charging station to recharge. After replenishing the charge, the robot will continue cleaning from where it left off before.

Robot Vacuum Cleaner, despite the Chinese production, will be an excellent assistant for any user when cleaning an apartment or house.

Taking into account the very affordable price, ease of operation and elegant design, the Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum robot vacuum cleaner is an excellent purchase for any apartment. First of all - apartments, where, in addition to people, animals also live, regularly sprinkling wool on the floor. On the third day of regular cleaning, the house became noticeably cleaner, and the half-liter dust collector was filled in our case with wool and dust almost completely in two days.

It must be clearly understood that a robot vacuum cleaner should exist in the house not instead of, but together with traditional cleaning products. Yes, it will not replace a conventional vacuum cleaner, as it cannot get into tight corners. However, it will make your life much easier, especially if you establish communication with your smartphone and learn a simple cleaning planning system. One battery charge is enough for cleaning up to 100 sq. meters of area - almost any one-level apartment is included in this framework.

The 5200 mAh battery provides a minimum of 2.5 hours of battery life. This time is enough to clean a three-room apartment with an area of ​​80-100 sq. m. In a two-room apartment, the cleaning time in a quiet slow mode is about 55 minutes. If the floor has difficult terrain and the vacuum cleaner needs to use sensors more often, it discharges a little faster.

When the charge remains low, but the cleaning is not yet finished, the vacuum cleaner returns to recharge, saving the location of the already cleaned places in the device's memory. Once charged, it continues cleaning from where it left off.

Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum Cleaner has 12 different sensors: LDS laser range meter, wall proximity sensor, dust sensor, obstacle collision sensor, ultrasonic radar, large particle detection sensor, electromagnetic compass, gyroscope, accelerometer, speedometer, fall sensor and fan speed sensor.

This prevents the vacuum cleaner from bumping into obstacles such as furniture legs or falling off the steps. Room maps are regularly updated - if you want to rearrange. The main thing - do not forget to remove black carpets from the floor, because the vacuum cleaner perceives them as an abyss and goes around.

By installing the Mi Home application on a smartphone and connecting it to a vacuum cleaner, you can set a schedule for it and run it even when no one is at home. The app shows which zones have already been removed by the robot.

The Mi Home interface is as clear as possible even to those with a smartphone on "you", but the Chinese characters still scare away. In the application on the smartphone, you can set the cleaning mode, indicate the room where you need to clean, view notifications, monitor the position of the vacuum cleaner in real time and much more.
