    Yes, but it's too expensive, any cheaper one

    Robot cleaners are okay if you dont have carpets on the floor! Change is bigg they will hang on the decorated (hairy) sides of it.

    At the end cheap is cheap and for a bit more money you get quality and or service.

    I have an Xiaomi 1S, pretty happy with it.

    We have a PVC floor and a small rug on the floor near the sitting area. Thats no problem for him.

    I can manage it with the HC2 being able to use geofencing so it only ride when we are not at home.

     

    The lesson i learned is, dont buy the most expensive flagship vacuum cleaners but a mid range model.

    Technology goes so fast a midrange model of 1 or 2 years later is much more intelligent than the flagship you bought back then.

     

    My first vacuum cleaner was a really expensive one, like 1000 euro and it did a pretty good job, but i was amazed how much more intelligent vacuum cleaners were 1,5 year later...

    And the Xiaomi was 25% of the price of my previous robot...

     

    So the lesson i learned is, i rather replace my vacuum cleaner every two years than buy one really expensive for years.

     

    (Of course if cost is not an issue you can buy a flagship every few years :-) )

    Yes, Xiaomi 1S is a good robot vacuum cleaner
    My friend also bought one and her feedback is also good at present, she own it already 4 months

     

    But i also got a recommendation 

    It's Klinsmann Robot Vacuum Model K187

    After i made a detailed comparsion and i think it maybe also a good choice

    Had an Roomba 564 pet series. Battery died. New Battery aprox €100 till €150.

    So I bought an Xiaomi S6 pure.

    Runnning for a couple of weeks now, very satisfied.

    No carpets on floor just at the front door, cleans this also very well.

    Less noise, lidar scanner, no or less bumping into things.

    Hi! Did you integrated the vacuum cleaner on to HC3?

    Same here, but integration is pain in the a**. Using Automation Bridge in the moment, but it is very basic and does not support at least favorites.

    Nope, I'm satified with the app that comes with it. So till now no need to do so. Also not a lua/api expert. Maybe in the late future I will give it a try.

    I7 and shockingly it got fine pet hair and a lot of trash (even figured out how to catch itself in my iPhone line, haha). Frightened my canine to pieces, trust he doesn't assault it while I'm away. Floor looks perfect now, yet I comprehend that it's better we leave it clear of items (little things like vases/taking care of bowls/mats and so forth, else it sticks around in a similar spot for more. Execution level is very useful at the cost. However to check its wiping capacity, yet that is not on need and I'll presumably never utilize that.

    My hardwood floors are no problem at all for it. I can also control it via remote control or mobile app.
