- Remote for remote control of the device;
- Charging station, where the gadget will return to recharge the battery;
- Power adapter;
- A unit designed to perform wet cleaning;

Vacuum cleaner design
In the development process, special attention was paid to the appearance of the model. The result is a rather interesting and stylish design. The case is made of special reinforced plastic with a matte finish on the end parts, the upper part is glossy. The design has a golden color, which makes it even more beautiful. The form of the device is classic for robotic vacuum cleaners - a circle. On the case from the front side is a touch panel on which you can find several buttons. It can also be used to activate the gadget. About the same place is a lid covering the compartment of the dust collector, which can be easily removed if necessary.
From the sides around the perimeter, you can see the protective bumper, there are also ventilation holes that remove excess heat from the processor and other internal parts. This part also houses a tank filled with water for wet cleaning.
Below there are two driving wheels of relatively large sizes, a front swivel wheel is provided for control. There are mounts for side brushes, which, by the way, have medium rigidity. The suction port is small, however, it is quite enough to draw most dust from the surface.Below is the battery compartment and the platform, providing its charge when the robot vacuum cleaner is at the base. There is a special attachment mount for attaching microfiber cloths that finishes the surface.
Performance
The model is equipped with a nickel-metal-hybrid battery, the capacity of which is 2200 mAh, which is enough to thoroughly clean up to 120 square meters in one pass. In standalone mode, the design can work up to two hours. The power consumption of this robot vacuum cleaner is 85 watts, with a suction power rating of as much as 25 watts. This parameter is decent enough for traditional vacuum cleaners, and for such a miniature product it will be one of the highest.
The robot immediately has 35 different kinds of sensors, among which there are a variety of:
- Not allowing falling from height;
- Orientation in space;
- Calculation of areas that are most polluted;
- Alerting the user that the dust bag is full.
It’s worth a few words about the dust bag. It is a container equipped with a cyclone filter, its volume is 500 ml. The dimensions of the vacuum cleaner itself are 34x34x8.7 cm with a mass of 4.5 kg. The device makes noise much less than a classic vacuum cleaner - the noise level does not exceed 55 dB at the highest power level.
Functions available in the robot cleaner
There are a lot of operating modes:
- Automatic - the device will, based on the readings received from the sensors, determine the area of the room, find out the location of various kinds of obstacles, and also lay the optimal route for moving around the room;
- The local mode is designed specifically for the design to thoroughly clean the area selected by the user, and the movement will be made in a spiral;
- The function of moving along the walls will help to cope with such problem areas as along the baseboards and in the corners;
- There is the possibility of programming a robot vacuum cleaner, which allows cleaning according to schedule. The product will be launched at the selected time strictly on a specific day of the week. After the process is completed, the gadget will independently return to the base to recharge the batteries;
- The wet mode is designed to wipe the floor with an integrated water tank and microfiber rags, which perfectly collects even the smallest dirt.
The main cleaning is carried out by two side brushes that collect debris from the floor surface and direct it to the suction hole. They do not have very high rigidity, they cope well even with a lot of hair or animal hair. This can be achieved through the use of fairly advanced VacuumPetPro technology. There is no central brush in the product design, therefore, there will be no difficulties with its cleaning during use.
The iPlus x600pro PetSeries has an infrared sensor that easily calculates the most contaminated areas. Nearby is an ultraviolet lamp, which will be very useful for people prone to allergic reactions. With its help, it is possible to instantly get rid of all sorts of microorganisms that cause allergies or irritation of the respiratory tract.
Instructions for using the robot
As we said earlier, complete with a robot vacuum cleaner comes instructions translated into Russian. It describes in detail how to use this equipment correctly so that it lasts as long as possible.One of the important advantages of this vacuum cleaner is that it does not need special care. All operations in this regard are reduced to a number of simple rules:
- In a timely manner, the tank should be cleaned of debris accumulated there;
- All sensors and the surface of the vacuum cleaner should be thoroughly wiped with a dry cloth;
- From time to time it is necessary to remove hair and wool from brushes;
- Wheels and the castor also have to be cleaned.
Pros and cons of the product
The iPlus x600pro Pet Series robot vacuum cleaner is ideally suited for use not only at home, but also in small offices and even in hotel rooms. It works well with smooth surfaces, however, with fleecy it is not very friendly, for example, with long-pile carpets.
This is mainly due to the fact that its design does not provide a turbo brush specifically for such purposes. Nevertheless, the vacuum cleaner copes with a low pile perfectly. We already mentioned that there are several operating modes, and quite a few sensors. The device is perfectly oriented indoors, does not crash into walls, corners or furniture. Also, a number of points can be attributed to the advantages:
- Attractive and stylish appearance;
- Long battery life;
- Powerfully sucks;
- It copes with low obstacles, for example, it can easily call on a rug with a small pile;
- Compact overall dimensions;
- The ability to program the design by day of the week and by hour;
- There is a sensor that indicates that the garbage container is completely full;
- The disinfecting surface is an ultraviolet lamp;
- The possibility of wet cleaning;
- Thoroughly removes pet hair;
- It makes little noise;
- There is an instruction in Russian.
Despite such a significant number of positive qualities, the robot vacuum cleaner has certain disadvantages:
- An outdated rechargeable battery - today lithium-ion batteries are increasingly being used;
- The product set is not too rich - there are simply no AAA batteries for the remote control, spare rags, brushes, filters, etc. also no;
- All kinds of contamination remain on the glossy surface of the case - dust is clearly visible, fingerprints are noticeable;
- It is not entirely clear how he moves in the cleaning mode around the perimeter of the room, since he performs the same actions as during automatic cleaning;
- Insignificant volume of the water container;
- There is no turbo brush;
- It doesn’t perfectly suck in large garbage. The tests used tea, millet and lentils. After harvesting, several large lentil grains were left on the laminate, and it coped well with other products used.
findings
For its price category, the device turned out to be quite decent both in terms of workmanship and in the field of cleaning efficiency. If you do not have carpets at home, and everywhere laminate, linoleum or ceramic tiles are laid, then such a robot vacuum cleaner will be the best solution for your apartment. It will save time and effort, and all surfaces will remain perfectly clean until the next cleaning.
