Hello there!
Here’s my first review on our amazing community!
RATING: ⅘
WHAT I’VE LIKED:
The product is well presented and it gives you the impression to be a high-tech product and, in facts, it’s what this robot is.
The box is also beautiful, as you can see in the pic below.
The design and aesthetic is so nice that it fits well everywhere in our home.
The charging station is small so you don’t have to think too much on where to place it.
So, that said… Let’s pass to the cleaning part!
It cleans well, it catches all the dust you might have and it will well understand your home spaces but…there’s a big BUT.
WHAT I DISLIKED:
The app is not easily understandable and could not suit everyone.
It’s well done but, honestly, I would never think to buy it as a present to my parents.
THE APP AND THE ROBOT CONTROL:
I loved the app since I’m a tech enthusiast.
You can control everything from there, from the status of the tools to how many rooms of your home you wanna clean.
It will take approximately 80 minutes to map your home the first time (105mq) and it will recognise all the obstacles on its way.
Once it has mapped your home you can choose to clean it entirely or by rooms so it’s super useful.
The wheels easily pass the low obstacles, such as low chair legs and so on.
The mopping part is also something that I found so useful since I often don’t have time to mop my home around: you can dose by the app how much water you wanna use and so it will affect the cleaning itself.
Plus, you can connect it to Alexa and start the cleaning routine directly with your voice :)
PRICE RANGE:
OBODE A8 is currently at €359.99 (promotional price) on their website so I would definitely reccomend it but I would also reccomend it at its normale price which is €499.99.
The OBODE A8 is a time and life saving if you, like I do, work a full time job and don’t have much time to clean your home up.
Hope you have enjoyed this review,
Beatrice
