bObi Pet Robotic Vacuum Cleaner: Robotic Cleaner with UV-light
Consider adding the bObi Pet robotic vacuum cleaner to your list if you're looking for a robotic cleaner that's specifically designed for cleaning up after pets. It cleans with dual spiral-shaped brushes made of a combination of rubber and bristle, and it has many other unique features.
Dimensions
The cleaner is 12 inches in diameter and has a height of 3.5 inches. It's short and can easily slide under close-to-the-floor furniture. The weight is just 10 pounds. The dustbin is disappointingly small. With a capacity of only 300ml, it won't hold much pet fluff.
Features
The most distinguishing feature of the bObi Pet cleaner is the presence of a UV lamp that kills microbes. This is one of the most essential features for pet owners. There are also numerous dust detectors. Besides, it has a washable HEPA filter that traps allergens and the smallest dust particles. Not only that, but it comes with two mop attachments. The cleaner doesn't have a water tank, so you will have to soak the mop in water or spray it with a cleaning solution to perform wet cleaning.
Even with such outstanding features, the bObi Pet robotic vacuum cleaner has a significant drawback: a suction power of only 800 Pa. Strangely, almost all the pet vacuums from bObsweep have this level of suction, even the advanced bObsweep PetHair Plus. And this does influence the machine's cleaning efficiency: it struggles to suck in pet fur, embedded in a carpet, as well as dust bunnies (even in Turbo mode).
In general, the cleaner operates automatically and without user intervention (unless there are some errors). It automatically returns to the charging station when it runs out of charge. The battery power allows the cleaner to operate for 90 minutes in Turbo mode and 120 minutes in Eco mode. It needs about 4 hours to recharge.
I don't like that the vac doesn't have Wi-Fi connectivity and app control. Instead, it comes with an unusual, circular remote controller with a large LCD screen. It provides a wide range of control options, including the ability to manually guide the cleaner, adjust its speed, schedule cleaning sessions, and more.
The robot has a lot of cool features, but it has a bad suction and a bad battery. As a result, it receives a 7/10.
Design
The bObi pet robotic vacuum cleaner review is disc-shaped, with a shiny reflective finish on top that attracts dust. There are two colors to choose from: scarlet and silver. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a carrying handle. There are 3 buttons on its upper panel with confusing denominations: Go, Juice, and Waffle. The first one serves as a Power button, the second one is designed for manual docking, and the third button activates Spot mode. With its touch-sensitive buttons and LED-illuminated indicators, the bObsweep — bObi Pet robot vacuum cleaner looks modern. It also features 80 sensors, located along the bumper, that look like small thorns. On the side, there is also an on/off switch. Three wheels are housed at the unit's base.
In my opinion, the model has an appealing design that is devoid of unnecessary frills. As a result, it receives a 9/10 for design.
Conclusion
Consider this bObi Pet vacuum review as a recommendation if you need a cleaner to ensure a high level of hygiene in your home. It has a mop attachment, UV light, and HEPA filter to help you clean up after your pets. However, the suction power could be better, and there is no app control possibility.
