ILIFE V5s Plus Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo with Wi-Fi App Alexa Automatic Self-Charging Robotic Vacuum Cleaner Slim

The media could not be loaded. I am honestly shocked at how well this vacuum performs. I have four dogs, one of them a yellow Lab, so anyone with pets knows the amount of hair I’m dealing with on a daily basis. This thing handles it beautifully. The longer sweeping arms make a huge difference — it actually pulls hair from edges, corners, and along baseboards instead of just pushing it around. It gets under furniture and along edges better than any robot vacuum I’ve owned. It even figures out how to maneuver under my dining table and chairs, which really impressed me. The battery life is excellent, especially considering how much ground it covers, and it runs quietly, which is a big plus with dogs in the house. It doesn’t get under everything, but it gets under almost everything that matters. I’ve used the mop function once, and it did a surprisingly good job. I still do a deeper, traditional mop about once a week, but for maintenance cleaning, this is fantastic and keeps my floors looking consistently clean. Overall, this has made a huge difference in how clean my house stays day to day. With multiple dogs, that’s saying a lot. I truly didn’t expect to be this impressed. Read more

Hubby gifted this to me for Christmas (before Christmas--hahaha). I love it! We have all laminate hardwood floors, and I am OCD about keeping the floors clean with three cats and a puppy. I would sweep/mop several times per week, and I still felt the floor wasn't clean. I really love this robot (Rosie) overall and recommend it to friends and family especially with limited time or back/health issues, but see below for more detailed comments. Vacuuming: I feel this vacuums the floors perfectly; Rosie has all terrain wheels and can get out of most cases when it is caught. I have several floor transition strips, one about 1/2 inch high, and Rosie goes over it no problem. As you use it, you will learn where it gets stuck and how to solve it; Rosie finally motivated me to clean up the wire mess behind/underneath the TV console since she kept getting caught. I pick up my floor rugs because she does get stuck on them (they are not hard on the bottom, but they are washable rugs--really can't describe them much better). The only furniture it cannot go under is the couch which is low profile, but it gets under the beds, futons, entertainment centers, and cabinets. I thought I kept my floor pretty clean, but I've used it several times a week for the last three weeks and had to empty the bin in the middle of cleaning! Week 3 and I don't need to empty it as much. She picks up big pieces; the pattern she vacuums is random, but she does get the entire floor done. I have not used the spot or edging functions since she does those every time she runs. She runs for about 150 minutes (2.5 hours) when fully charged. One con is that there is no barrier function to this robot like with the Rumba--not a big deal, but it would be nice to keep her out of the kitchen when I am making dinner. Another *slight* con is that the scheduling function is very minimal--you can set it for one time and that's it. You can't schedule days or anything else. I have tried to cancel the scheduling function since I don't have a consistent time that works for me, but she wouldn't quit the schedule although I followed the website directions. I just turn her off when I don't want her to run. I don't do the bedrooms all the time so I close the doors to keep her in the main area (laundry room, kitchen, and living room on a one story). AS A PET OWNER DO NOT RUN THIS UNLESS YOU ARE AT HOME! If there is vomit or urine or feces, she will pick it up/spread it around the house! Mopping: I am still iffy on the mopping part. You can't use detergent to mop, only water, so I am not completely happy about that. I do still "hand mop" high traffic or very dirty areas like in the kitchen, in front of outside doors, and places puppy likes to mess (yay housetraining!). Otherwise, Rosie mops the rest of the house, and she does a decent job. She still does the random pattern when mopping but not a big deal. Even if I am not completely satisfied with the mopping portion, the vacuuming portion is spectacular so I am okay with it. Read more

Unboxing / First Impressions: Product received in great packaging. Once unboxed, read through the manual and quick setup guides. Though English was not that great it was easy enough to get through. I set the little vac, which my 4 yr old named Winston, into its charger and charged it up. First Run/Impressions: I have a 2 story home with downstairs being hardwood floors and ceramic tile comprising approx. 1200 sf of space on the 1st floor.. A living room, Dining room with lots of furniture, breakfast room with table/chairs and hutch, a kitchen with an island and a living room with 4 chairs, sofa, coffee table, and a lg armoire. When I pushed clean to start the dry vac process the unit began to move about cleaning in a fairly random pattern, softly bumping into furniture and working to move around items. After a while I noticed it would move around to a chair or table and begin a move to go around a leg once it seemed to determine it was in fact a leg of a chair or table. If it found the item to be a larger piece with long sides like cabinets or an armoire it would go along cleaning the edges. While it moved through the rooms it was more random than expected and seemed to go over some spots more than others. It did a really good job of cleaning around the oak chairs at the breakfast table. I have two thick matts in the kitchen for standing, it had no problems getting up on those. I have a 3 X 5 rug at the front door, this was a little bit of an issue as the little brushes tended to go under the edge picking up the edge of the carpet and causing the vac to backup or flip the rug up and cause it to jump over or again, back up. This was not all the time. Cleaning Power: I will say it did a great job cleaning up dirt, sand, dust, small items from the floor. I let it run for about an hour and it swept most of the 1200 sf or so of hard floors. I emptied the container once abt 45 mins in and let it go on it's way. Issues I ran into: The little vac, which was named Winston at first, but has since been renamed "Romi" by my 4 yo, did have an issue when it decided to clean under my large sofa (it didn't have issues with the skirt by the way.) I happened to have my wireless rear audio speakers behind the sofa and the little vac found the wires and got them tangled in the brush. This stopped the unit cold. I had to look around after not hearing it anymore to finally find it under the sofa shut off. I untangled the wire, checked unit for issues (none) and hit Clean again, and off it went like nothing ever happened. Completing the Cleaning: I didn't run the vac until it stopped on it's own. We had to get to bed so I used the provided remote and pointing it at "Romi's" front (the remote appears to use IR, not RF) it shut down the vacuum, put little brushes in a low/slow power mode and began to go in a "follow the left side" of the room method to find its way back to the charging base. This seemed a little like a blind person in a strange room following along a wall. After 5 mins or so, Romi got within 5 ft of the charging base and seemed to see it. At this point it lined itself up and slowly proceeded to guide itself back on to the base and started charging for the night. PROS: - Good price! Can't beat the price for a vac and this one will do wet service but have not tried that yet. - Great cleaning! It did a really good job cleaning the hard floors. I have not tried it on low pile carpet but will do that and provide feedback. - Quiet. This is MUCH quieter than our Shark and other vacuums. CONS: - Not as sophisticated as much more expensive units. - Does not appear to have a memory of the floor or room layout - Does not connect to Wifi - Does not have reports on how/where it cleaned, etc. OVERALL: If you want a good sweeper unit without all the fancy junk that makes units cost 3 or 4 times as much, this is your guy! It does a great job sweeping hard floors can get under items that have about 4-5" of clearance, doens't have issues with skirts on sofas, and gets around chair and table legs to clean under furniture!

It has great suction power and picks up dog and cat hair without any problem, as well as dirt and dust. When it arrives, it’s very easy to assemble, and changing the filters and brushes is simple. It also has different functions for cleaning corners and the edges between the floor and the walls. It’s a high-quality vacuum and it really looks like a high-end model. The only downside is that it doesn’t include some functions that the more expensive models have, like automatic floor mapping in the app. Read more
