Before starting, I must say that this is the first robot vacuum I own, so my closest references are battery powered hand vacuums. That said, the experience...

di_lorenzo Nice review Lorenzo! I have only one piece of advice, the advice is when you post images of the app or software to change the language to English so that they are easy for everyone to understand even those who are not familiar with Google lens 😜, I’m also Italian and it was suggested to me in turn the same thing. As for the robot itself, I find the display on the base very nice and in general it seems a quality product, as regards some problems indicated I can tell you based on my experiences (I have been using robots for years now, currently I have 3) that often companies launch products that are a bit immature from a software point of view but usually fix firmware issues and add features over time. The question I would like to ask you is: based on its price and bearing in mind the problems encountered and the availability of accessories, would you recommend it?

di_lorenzo

Enrico_NonSoloRobot tank you for the advice, I will definitely change the language to english next time.

Regarding the price I think that for the launch price of 480€ I would buy it, but I saw that after this initial discount the price will skyrock to 699€ here in Italy, which is maybe a bit too much.

So I think that under 600€ is ok and and under 500€ like it is right now it’s very interesting for potential buyers

Menguelez

di_lorenzo Wow 699€ is a bit expensive, yes 👍

Sally_Z

di_lorenzo I saw the price from the website of A8+ is $477.55, which is acceptable to me. I will consider getting one since I like the design and the screen light looks cool.

di_lorenzo

Sally_Z at this price is definitely worth it

SprintingWorm

oh my, this is radioactive!

di_lorenzo

SprintingWorm that’s the result of 3 days of cleaning while I couldn’t get the base to work 😅

Very good review, detailed and honest 👍️

Seeing that as you comment there is little availability of the dust bags, personally if I were to buy the robot, I would do it without the self-emptying base.

di_lorenzo

rafuet thank you,

The difference in price is significant, but if they will offer support for the bags then, I think it’s worth to buy the self emptying version since it can literally be independent for a month

SprintingWorm

di_lorenzo that sounds great, tell’s us how much it did during 3 days.

So, after some advices and feedbacks I edited a bit the review and added a video, I hope it’s now more readable and better looking 😁
