My Robot Friend
We ripped out the carpeting in our house, which I love, but it meant lots of vacuuming, sweeping, and mopping, which I do not love. There were days when it took over two hours to clean the floors of my house & I just got sick of doing it every week. It seemed I just couldn’t stay on top of the dirt because we have pets and no one but me will take their shoes off indoors. Plus, spills, and sticky juice, and baking flour, and leaves, and pet hair, and, and, and…After following a few cleaning influencers online, I learned about floor bots that can both mop and vac! What?! Really?! Sign me up!I settled on Narwal because it seemed as if it had really great rates of customer satisfaction. I chose this model after deciding what features I needed, as well as what I could live without.Since Awesom-O has come to live with us, he has been in frequent use. Probably every 2-3 days. I still mop the floors myself sometimes because I can clean behind open doors & behind toilets & he cannot, but it’s nice that I do not HAVE to worry about this chore all the time. Awesome-O keeps things tidy & presentable. And our house smells clean & fresh because the floors are clean & fresh.In the 102 days he has been here, he has cleaned 41.3k sq. ft, worked 106.4 hours, and performed 101 tasks. This is all information the smart phone app tracks.Detergents cannot be used in the mop water, but you really don’t need them. You can send the bot out as often as you need, so detergents would be redundant. But you could probably put a few drops of essential oil on the mops before putting your robot to work.The dock is larger than what you think. You will need a large space near an outlet.A smart device is needed to run the floor bot. There is a button on the dock, but you need to give commands, and tweak maps of the house, through the app. The unit connects to WiFi.While it is cleaning, if it needs to charge along the way, it will dock and charge before going back out to pick up where it left off. The battery life is pretty good, but if you’re mapping & cleaning for the very first time, it could take AWHILE to complete it all. If you have a large area to cover—again, your bot might need to recharge. If you’re doing in-depth, meticulous cleaning with three mopping passes—it’s probably gonna need to charge up again.You can set a schedule to clean as often as you need. Once this is in place, the bot does it all. Just make sure your water tanks are seen to. Keep the dirty return empty and the clean container filled. Easy.The bot can be a bit loud. When it empties the vac, the unit compresses the dirt, and this is rather loud. The unit has a Do Not Disturb mode so the unit’s voice will not speak.It’s kind of loud for middle of the night use. If you’re a light sleeper, you’ll hear it roaming around and getting in & out of the dock. I like to set mine for when I’m heading out so everything is clean when I return.It’s very smart, and goes around most objects. Mine got hung up on some long curtains one day, and it got under a desk that had cords & pulled some things down.I took it upstairs to clean there (it was more trouble than it was worth, so the plan is to buy a unit for upstairs) and was worried it would tumble down and break, but it didn’t. It got right up to the edge of the top stair, then backed away and continued cleaning. I was really impressed. Just slide the stair toggle over & let the AI take care of the rest.Overall, I really enjoy having this floor bot in the house. Wish I’d bought one sooner.Ver másVer menos
