Surprising Little Robot
We’ve only had it for a few days but it seems to be a great little unit. We called iLife’s customer service during the set up to get a few tips. They were fantastic and one of the reasons we chose the robot. Many of the other makers of floor robots do not have any customer service unless you send an e-mail to a place in China. First off, you need to know that if you have both carpet and hard floors, you will need to block off the carpet when using the washing function. Otherwise the robot will try to wash your carpets. iLife does not use block technology or magnetic strips to keep the robot contained in your desired space. That said, the vacuum function works great on hard floors. It will work on low pile carpet, but it’s not perfect. We were shocked to see how much it picked up. It picked up dust and small particles, a few dust bunnies that come off our wool area rugs and hair. The dust bin is large so you can do your entire house without having to dump it. The vacuuming goes fast and it will do at least 1800 square feet at one time. It does take a while for the robot to find its way back home, but that is not a problem. Charging did not take long—-we didn’t time it but it probably took about an hour in the docking station before we could use it again. The washing function does a much better job than I had expected. We put it on pathway mode and the little robot performed fantastically. We had spilled a little grease in the kitchen the night before and we were dubious about the robot getting it up. Well, it did after we ran the unit twice. There were no streaks and we were extremely happy with the results. You are not supposed to put any cleaning solution in the tank, so we just used water. Surprisingly, the water does a great job. The reusable mopping pads only need to be washed out after use and we do it by hand using a little Dawn dishwashing detergent. The pads come clean very easily. You can find videos of how-to on the iLife site that show you how to use and maintain the robot. Altho, we were a little disappointed that there was not much info on the latest V8s model. The good news is that customer service will help you with any questions and they are very knowledgeable. We hope this little robot lasts a good while because it has turned out to be a great helper and time saver. Very happy with the purchase and the price was great.

I’m really impressed so far
I’ve only been using it for 5 days, so I can’t speak to how it will operate in the future! But what I CAN say is I freaking love it so far! I don’t normally leave reviews, but this vacuum really has impressed me. Speaking candidly, I think a lot of the reviews of this product are AI generated, so they kind of made me skeptical to buy it. But, my dog pooped on my floor and RUINED my last robot vacuum, and I desperately need a robot vacuum to do my daily maintenance throughout the week. I do the deep clean with the traditional vacuum every Saturday.All that being said, I love all of the settings in the app. I love that it maps out the entire house, and I have the ability to name each of the rooms for the “room clean” function (where you designate the device to only clean certain rooms). With the mapping, it tries to establish a room by room structure. However, in the process of doing so, it mapped out that my bathroom and hallway were actually one room. This is an issue because the hallway is carpet and the bathroom is tile. This could interfere with the mopping function. BUT THEY SOLVED THAT TOO. You can manually separate rooms and merge rooms on the map to create a very accurate map of the layout of your home. I LOVED that.The vacuum is very thorough and very effective. The self emptying function is great. What I also like is that you can select how thorough and how powerful you want the vacuum to be. You can even select how many times you want the device to vacuum a room. I had company this weekend, so lots of people were in and out. I had the device vacuum the most trafficked areas 3-4 times.This has been my favorite robot vacuum so far. I would love a little help with sorting out the “scene” feature because I don’t quite understand that, but aside from that, this vacuum has been AMAZING. Would 100/10 recommend. If anything starts going amuck, I’ll update my review to reflect that 🙂

Item is too noisy, doesn’t vacuum well and the mob leaks water a lot. The seller doesn’t respond to queries at all.
