Not great.
Once you open the box there are strong warnings that it only works on 2.4ghz Wi-Fi, this should be on the box or ad. I took the time to map my home and segregate all the rooms and things like that, 2 days later when the kitchen need a quick vacuum it couldn't remember how to get there, it would get halfway there and then go back to it's dock. Doesn't vacuum well around walls, the spinney whisker things scatter 50% of debris out of it's path.
Great LiDAR, great suction, horrible to empty
This is a great little mop/vacuum robot vac. I have used several, with this being at the top of my list, with exception to the brush roller. We are a family of 6 with 3 girls. We also have 2 GSD with a lot of hair. We're experts on carpet cleaning, dusting, and emptying a dust bin. This vacuum surpasses my iLife and 2 Sharks on suction, hands down. Tight woven Persian rug is a bear to get hair off of, and this one does a great job. I'm very impressed to say the least. The mopping is a little less than desireable, with the volume of water being added to the mop head being a little too light. The immediate trail left behind is streaky with gaps, and it doesn't seem to get a good contact to the wood floors we have. Going with the grain or against, it didn't make a difference. Lastly, the dust bin was jam packed, which is actually a good thing. I suggest telling it to empty halfway through a cycle. (You can do this in the app settings.) The vacuum won't have to work as hard. However, all of this is great until it's time to empty. The vacuum, even on ultra "suck the windows out of your house" mode, the motor cannot get the wad of hair out of the bin. This I can remedy with the extra pitstop to empty. Fine. The roller brush though, that's a different story. You will need to turn the machine over and physically clean it after every full cycle. The amount of hair and fuzz that's trapped is actually bad for the motor. Shark remedied this with plastic blades inside the roller well where the brush spins. Genius! This would help to eliminate this problem greatly on the Bobsweep models too. Overall, a great robot, and I'm leaning towards keeping it versus returning it, solely based on the suction power on my rugs. I no longer have to get out my upright vacuum to "vacuum again" where my previous robot vac missed!
I LOVE this robot vac!
First, I nicknamed my Ultravision Robot, Bob. Bob is remarkable. Before he arrived, my husband was saying it will never make it over the rugs %26 thresholds. He was WRONG! There's not a rug or threshold Bob can't handle. I mean not 1! And some of ours are pushing 3/4 of an inch high! I want to add that we have 3 large dogs and 5 cats, so Bob's work is absolutely cut out for him in our home! Things I love about Bob: 1.When his battery is low, he returns to his station, empties himself out, then charges. 2. His sweeper brush does remarkably well to sweep dirt away from edges so he can vacuum it up. 3. He goes under our couch and ottoman to thoroughly clean where I had a tough time manually vacuuming before, and I hate moving that heavy chaise/couch sectional! 4. I love the way the app tells you that something is wrong and how to fix it! 5. I LOVE that Bob returns to his station when something is wrong. 6. I love that Bob has never gotten hung up at our thresholds or rugs. 7. I LOVE that while Bob does his thing cleaning my floors that I'm able to do whatever! 8. I love that Bob can also mop! If he leaves a tough spot behind, it's wet, and I reach down, and it wipes right up. 8. When errors do occur, the fixes are quite easy. For example, if the error says the main brush needs cleaning, it literally takes me a minute or so to access it and remove the excess debris wrapped around his brush. Now regarding Bob's imperfections: 1. After he empties himself 2 or 3 times, he typically requires a manual dump of the dirt as some can clog the exit emptying port. But a simple fix is after a few self emptying, to open him up and make sure he's completely empty, and then I do a quick check of his filter %26 main brush to proactively clean them. But the good news is that if I forget to do the very quick pm, the app will notify me that the main brush, dust bin, filter, or sensor needs cleaning. 2. There's 1 nightstand that's high enough for Bob to go under, but because there's a small area on his topside that's a little higher than the rest of him, he can get stuck under that 1 end table. The good news is that the app let me know he was hung up! Thus, when I run Bob, I block his entry to that 1 nightstand. 3. The only other imperfection, in my opinion, is I wish his battery lasted longer, as I wish ALL battery operated equipment lasted longer! I am 100% thrilled with the Ultravision BOBsweep. Bob saves me both time and energy! In fact as he works his way around my home cleaning, I repeatedly am heard saying "I LOVE Bob!". One day my husband said, "You tell Bob you love him more than you tell me!". Lol In short--- I LOVE BOB!
Great until it needs to actually clean.
Don't bother. Looks like it's a great deal for a high end vacuum mop based on the “sale” pricing that every model shows all year. It mapped well, set up was easy, and that was about it. This would be good for an empty house listed on the real estate market. Other than that, every single run was riddled with errors. One perk of these robot vacuums is that you can set and forget, clean while you leave. This one was about 20% success rate even positioning itself in the first place.
Great vacuum...Great Comapny!!!
I purchased the bObsweep UltraVision Self-Emptying Vacuum in late December 2024. Now three months later I am really thrilled with this vacuum. Initially after about three weeks I did have a problem which was the base charging unit stopped working for some unknown reason. I contaced the manufacturer and explained my experince over the telephone. The company representative, Margarita, immediately diagnosed the problem. Margarita said that she was going to send a replacement out to me. To my surprise the replacement was at my front door three days later!!! This company really cares about their reputation. The vacuum has been running flawlessly ever since. I really like the vacuum's avoidance ability. The other great feature is that you can assign three different suction strengths. The weakest strength is very quiet and still does a great job on my hardwood floors. This unit is well worth buying!!! I have no regrets. The vacuum does its job easily and the company is WONDERFUL!!!
Great robotic vacuum
Not much to improve. I love the self emptying and how it goes back to the base the recharge and then goes out again to finish its cleaning cycle. Love the option to turn it on and off through the app. Overall its a great robotic vacuum and the 3rd we've owned. We love it and couldn't live without it!
Great unit for family and pets.
I really like this vacuum robot. It's used on a daily scheduled morning go over. I have pets, that uncles two cats and a medium size dog. This unit is efficient for my needs and the family so that we are not needing to keep up with hair and daily house grass and crumbs. I do clean the toilets every other day to help the unit rollers stay clean.
Great Product!
I love my bobsweep. I really needed something to help with the constant dog hair. My bobsweep does a great job. I love the mapping feature and how easy the app is to use. I love that I can start it from the app so when I'm at work I can come home to a clean house.
Great pick for robot vacuum
This is a great robot vacuum and we are totally happy with it. It maps the area on the app wonderfully, is easy to have clean only specific areas, avoids stairs and doors a great job at picking up debris. We haven't used the mop feature yet but are very happy with the vacuum portion. We've had it for a couple of months and I would code this one again if I had to.
This vacuum is amazing!! We have 3 huskies and it keeps up with the hair tremendously! I do clean the brushes at least every other day to help keep the hair from getting trapped in the main brush. The mop is “okay.” I use it when the dogs come in and get the floor wet, but it is not a good deep clean mop for any dirt that's been dried up. All in all, I love this mop it's made my life so much easier with a new baby on the way.
