I waited and it failed to recover its position.Д®ven under warranty you will have to pay to get the unit repair.Д«atteries do not whole charge and degrade very fast. вЂPlease wait while I recover my positionвЂ™. вЂCleaning suspended while chargingвЂ™ in middle of room away from charger. It does returns to its charging base when battery is low, then goes back to cleaning.Д¬ons: Too many bugs/errors on a finished product.

Cleans very close to walls, corners and furniture.Д¬leans fast, like I would clean, straight overlapping lines.Д®asy to remove brush roll to remove hair. Pros: Powerful suction, picks up dust, hair, dirt particles better than Roomba.Д¬leaning schematics are very good. Neither the Roomba, nor the Neato will remove the need to deep clean your place with a regular vacuum, but they will greatly reduce the frequency to do it though. It's loudness makes you want to send it out while you're away, but it will sometimes get stuck and need attention on your return. Overall Review: The Neato will effectively clean a room for you. This is a far cry from the Roomba's wireless walls and lighthouses. As impressive as this little vacuum is, the barrier strips seem so 20th century in comparison. The Neato's barrier strips are ugly and clumsy and seem like an afterthought. Therefore, pet hairs around baseboards and furniture feet won't always get picked up. This is because the Roomba has a rotating sidebrush which the Neato lacks. The Neato doesn't clean edges as well as the Roomba. (The Roomba's original dustbin is nowhere near as good at picking up pet hairs compared to the newer Aerovac bin which also holds much much more). The Neato's dust bin is much smaller that the Roomba's Aerovac dustbin and needs to be emptied after each job. I've had mine stop in its tracks and complain that it's blocked by a staircase step leading up while having 3 to 4 feet of clear space all around it. Whereas the Roomba just bumps its way blindly about the room and figure its way about through dumb luck, the Neato will get confused by furniture and walls. The mapping function will sometimes work against it. However, a more powerful motor draws more juice from the battery, so it has to come back to base and recharge 2 or more times to complete a 400 sq. But that shouldn't be a problem if you program it to go out and clean while you're away. Awesome purchase at this price.Д¬ons: It's strong vacuum motor is much louder than the Roomba's. It's a treat to come home to a clean place. We have a beagle in the house, and the Neato's new pet brush will effectively pick up all the dander and hair from your floors and carpets. You won't need to fuss about dismantling and cleaning brushes and wheels like you would with a Roomba The Neato is easy to clean and to maintain. It will 'look about' and plot a efficient path about your room. The laser scanning and room mapping function is quite impressive to see. As a result, it will clean your carpets almost as well, if not as well as a regular vacuum cleaner. The Neato's suction motor is much stronger than a Roomba's. This provides you with a set and forget device which will go out and clean your space several times a week. Pros: This is a sophisticated robot sporting programmable scheduler, a laser mapping function and a powerful suction motor.
