yes, very good. i got the 1st generation unit.

my top 3 robot vacuum picks based on my experience of owning and using them

1 - neato (most expensive, even the battery also expensive)
2 - mijia (most quiet and bajet friendly)
3 - roomba (havent fall down suicide yet)

which 1 come with mop 1??


really good??

Most important is, which one most tahan cat sitting on it? Because these things mostly cats will play with them.

none.

only china ones come with all in one. vacuum, sweep, UV germicide, wet mop

if u want a reliable wet mop only function bot that is good, buy the neebot.

sole function bot vs all in one bot different meh?? i tot just the bottom pad...
their programme different??

if your house kecik then is fine. if your house besar then no.
big house generally the bot will return home to re-charge and then continue on where it left off.

most tanks cannot hold enough liquid for any houses above 1600sq/ft

die... my house 1650+

use maid better...

buy separate units for duties.
your returns will be felt in the 1st year itself.

maid - RM 1500/month + expenses + levy + insurance + medical = >9000
robot vacuum - RM 1500 (one off) + elektrik + battery change/year = <9000
robot mop - RM 750 (one off) + elektrik + battery change/year = <9000

Got 1. Really reliable

The battery really cannot tahan, need to change every year?

good point... maid cost sure over 5 digit ...
and contract only last 2 years...

any recommended model for me to have some research??

depends on some factors.
mine is switched on 24/7 but i scheduled only to once a day rather than non stop.
mine requires 2 charges to complete the house.

in turn the battery will weaken in slightly over a year.
u'll notice it when either

1 - tasks perform requires more charges
2 - cant really return home
3 - indicator flashing (this one in dire need of battery change liao)

for me is usually option #1. the usual 2 charges to finish up my house, by year end it should take 3-4 charges.



my top 3 pics again

1 - https://www.neatorobotics.com/
2 - https://www.lazada.com.my/shop-vacuum-cleaners/xiaomi/
3 - https://www.irobot.com/For-the-Home/Vacuuming/Roomba


or subsequently u can head on over to retail to see it in action

corvan @ damansara utama. same row as 7-11/astro


u can find neato and roomba and even see it in action, real live demo over at corvan. yes it is more expensive cause its retail in damansara utama. but see only la, wanna buy just buy online. its cheaper.

okay, noted

can it store 2 maps, downstairs and upstairs?

Minus bathrooms, cabinets, balcony (if it's a condo unit) should be just nice.

Which robot mop did you go for?

true also...

i have 2 units for mopping

1 neebot and 1 everybo

https://www.corvan.com.my/everybot

neebot no longer in production liao. but is good. i bought via taobao 4 years ago.
the thing i like about neebot is, it uses samsung galaxy s3 batteries. so its easily available.

Roborock . Its awsome. No regrets

Bought from shoopee 1.5k need wait 1 month

many thanks for the info.
everybot is hardly the rm700 price you mentioned earlier, but still can consider..

How about battery replacement or service for mijia?

Easy to find, is there xiomi svs Ctr in Msia?

I got my neato from here. Sometimes here have better deal than Lazada

http://eshop.mationz.com/Robotic-Cleaners/NEATO

my everybot was bought some time back not this version.


for mijia can buy and change yourself. same like neato and roomba. all can buy and change yourself. I dont really buy retail for accesories, but if for actual unit i might consider buy retail. sometime need to physically see it , performance and all.


ya, no matter how, buy online is much cheaper than retail. see which site lor, sometime lazada the user might have diskaun voucher and wanna use. same like shopee and searchjd

so it is programmable? what if its stuck under the ref or sofa? or what if it goes outside in a open door?


what if dog or cat play with it?

I'm not sure if it will work for me, so thinking should I start with a Mijia... is the performance a LOT different from a neato?

My house is 2 storey, 3800sqft will xiaomi be fine? ALso there is several version of xiaomi? I;m confused cause I see the one selling officially/locally is the one launched like 2 yrs ago..

Mijia is ok. Good mapping. Xiaomi and mijia basically same thing.

xiaomi gen 3 is coming.

Oooo thats is nice to know.

Any idea roughly and if they will carry it locally?

Or all online purchase only?

I dont mine online purchase actually... i bought some xiaomi IR sensing nightlight from aliexpress for my bathroom.. best thing ever

Ha.. looks liek i will go for this rather then a dyson vacuum.. those things are not light on the wrist..

dont count on it. roborock v2 wasn't officially released outside China.

I owned phillips brand. I feel that it is not clever enough. Doesn't cover the whole floor sometimes.

I couldn't wait any longer. Ma 2nd unit S55 just arrived today.

Xiaomi Roborock Gen 3

Xiaomi Roborock T6

Initially I thought of getting xiaomi roborock as well, but I'm more worries on the warranty just in case. As Gen 2 onwards all do not have local warranty, even merchant max also given you 6 months warranty.

Might just get ecovacs during their discount on 27th.

my unit is 800sqft condo,
can recommend me?

not experience enuff on this robot vaccuum

Eh how come 2nd unit?

I dont mind buying it directly from China.

What is this Roborock thing?

They selling grey market xiaomi? Or the global arm of xiaomi? They install english menu/OS instead of the chinese? (I cant read chinese...)

So Xiaomi Gen3 would be Roborock S5?

I got the Roborock S50. Global version. This is generation 2 with mop function. White unit with silver trimmings on the parameter. If you see S51 or S55 its basically the same unit but in a different color.

The vacuum works well, sucks up almost everything. I let it run every 2 days on a 1350 sqft home, overall cleaning was really really good. Even on corners where you thought there would be residual dust, it minimizes it to the max. Just remember to take away your floor mats cos the vacuum even with carpet mode on cant vacuum through the floor mats cos they are not fully planted on the floor.

Mine can go through the entire house with a 60% charge left. As for mopping, the instruction says to be around when the mop function is being used. True enough, i had to add water to the mop pan every 400 sqft and also clean the microfibre cloth. i only mop once a week.

Overall it was a very good purchase...i loaned it to my mom this week.....heck my house super dusty now.....not used to having dust all around after having this robot. my mom now also contemplating buying it ...hohoho.

I got a hunch the reason they do not want to sell internationally is because they may have breached a patent. don't quote me on this but its so weird it's been a year they do not release it even in their official Mi stores

where did you buy this "global" version?

what you see now s50, s55 is the second gen.

3rd gen isn't out

the cheapest option with 6 month warranty is in Shopee
lazada also sells it but the seller advice me to just get the Chinese version. Cos the global version only has labels and boxes in English.
You can install language packs to the vacuum so it responds or announces alerts in English.
Also most of the controls for this vacuum is via app, app is in English so no need global version.

800sqft is small case for robot vacuum..

throw me ur question, i see if i can help.. am using roborock robot vacuum

I think all the roborock on amazon is the "global" version... aka they just come with english menu

reverse parking

inventor is actually roborock

but they produce it for xiaomi..so called "joint invention" la, but the one they selling its roborock 1st generation

so if u want to get latest model and dont mind warranty, can directly purchase from Roborock china. U can use the roborock with xiaomi app. no issue, english interface

Oh...

U mean we buy directly from say Aliexpress/China... the app will be in english? Cannot be right.....

"just sticker and box is english" quoted from a lazada seller i was asking about the difference.

order directly from taobao.

control the app using Mi Home app. the app can set english language

I dunno where the shopee seller sources his products but it says Global version.
"just sticker and box is english" qouted by lazada seller whom also sells the global version of the vacuum...he also sells a chinese only version.
i think global version is for EU countries? cos it gives the 2 pin plug.

the Mi home app is in english ler... how can cannot be? i am using the app...its in english ...just choose your region in a english speaking language country ..like Singapore for instance.
the app is from the google app store..

Software for the vacuum also can be updated?

Which means Gen1 and Gen 2 no difference except for the mop function?

I been lookign thru AliExpress no Gen 3 listed hmmmm

oooo using Mi Home App.. okok... cause I using MiTV V3 all in chinese pfffttt

Anyway... if we didnt want the mop function... then Gen1 and Gen 2 no diff?

Good 27th Sale.. but seems discount RM50 nia

differerence
- suction power
- sensors- now smarter in gen 2
- hepa filter can be washed for gen 2
- design
- charging dock is smaller for gen 2.

the detailed specifics...i din research hohoho...cos wife was aiming for mop function.

battery ez spoil?
clean mou?

i see 1k++

if worth, can let me know where you buy? share share pls

I cheked around,

Gen 2 more like 1.5k

Thats quite a difference, especially the washable filter and sensor

if you buy, you buy which gen?

Migth as well Gen 3.. if price is not like 2k or so

Now the next question.... anyone seen Gen3 for sale in Taobao/AliExpress?

Here more detailed comparison. Just take ur time to watch pls.

got logic la, some pipul dun want the hole. LOL

I own 1 S51. Still rocks

Ordered one more for ma upper floor

Both ordered directly from tongsan

I'm still confused between the relation of Roborock & Xiaomi

I don't really know.

What i know is roborock is a product of xiaomi

30 minute video...

Let me summarise it for others.

1. Filter interchangeable
2. Roller/Brush interchangeable

Thats it, all others are none pertinent info

Roborock.

Is it?

I went xiaomi store at midvalley, asking them about the filter.
They said they only sell filter for gen 1.

Ended up i bought from shopee. Cheap

Offivial local xioami stores only sell Gen 1 vacuum and parts. No Gen 2. Dont even ask abotu Gen 3...

Heck they dont even have MiTV

Yeah... They should've told me that gen 1 filter can be used on gen 2.

Stupid sales assistant

probably they dun even know.
the gen 1 filter cannot be washed, you tap it to remove the dust....the second gen one can be washed with running water to remove the dust.
normally ppl who doesn't need the mop function from gen 2 will buy the gen 1 and get extra gen 2 filters to put into their vacuum.

.

This post has been edited by idoblu: Sep 30 2019, 04:37 PM

can share tongsan link?

But why?

Throw the Gen 1 filter... get the washable Gen 2 instead

I would go that path....

but now.. there is a GEN 3!!!!

I'm googling whats the difference now hahaha

metoo

Gen 2 - S50/S55 (white and black color)
Gen3 - T6/T65 (depends on market Non China/China)

Menu wise got English no worry even for China Unit

No official store here so all unit import set

yup..

and basically not much difference, beside got mop function.

and for gen 2, u can control the vacuum suction power, 3 levels. Im not sure Gen 1 has this function not

Oh ya, one thing i choose roborock (other than expensive brand) is they can draw out ur room layout. If other cap ayam brand, just turning around to sweep n mop only

If u plan to buy ecovacs, please buy from local reseller. Ecovacs has separate app for local unit n China unit. China unit require china app, and register via china mobile number.

Gen1 suction power is slightly lower.

Because i lazy to mop floor, so get gen 2 ..hahaha.

battery, so far i didnt encounter any. if not mistaken, i used for 1yr+, close to 2 yrs

clean mou a, each place the robot will run 2 times, go n back. Though my floor not dirty, but it able to suck so many dirt, which i also surprise.

i bought around 1.2k, personally i feel its worth. very good example, during eve of cny or after relative visit my house, i just turn on the robot let it sweep n mob by itself. because too tired of prepare cooking n stuffs for cny, so robot is a good buy, regardless what brand

I bought it from taobao (Roborock official flagship store), then add on some spare parts like brush, cloth for mop and the magnetic stripe. U can PM me, i share the link to u

because local xiaomi not directly from Xiaomi China, just like a Xiaomi distributor.

haha, i got my mibox from other reseller too

wow..Gen 3 is with Ai now.. 小爱同学语音控制

It came in package. 2 hepa filters, 1 main brush and 4 side brushes.

I couldn't recall the exact figure, but i think it was around rm150

I prefer the throw-away one. Easy for me.

Look in shopee. The one that arrived today the damage is rm1,499. S55. Took 6 days to deliver. Hnngghhhh

Make sure to get the global one

bought direct from china
not xiaomi, i think another brand la
probably a hit or miss for those directly buying cuz there's no reliable and cheap way to send these things back to china

Har?

Gen2 can get around 1.2k? Thats a very good price wor
