Review Text: It will show you where your carpet has a hidden pr. Well, the good and the bad. The good, it does a good job of cleaning. Finds dirt and lint and dust that the regular vacuum didn't pick up. Really pretty quiet when operating. Does not have a filter bag, just a flat filter. The dust tank removal is easy, The bad. If your carpet is thick and on a thick pad and needs to be stretched out a tiny bit, this is not for you. Wheels are a little small, and the unit is not well balanced. It can go forward on thick heavy carpet. If it get to a stairs it cannot backup on thick carpet, as it sinks in. I imagine if you had a doggie door/ gate it would never have that fault. If you have a stretch spot in the carpet that is not tight it cannot go backward. Really not it's fault. But if it gets stuck it will try to get out, spinning it's wheels and making a black mark on the carpet where the wheels are. This was able to be cleaned up, (soap and sponge and brush out fibres) but it was a scare that it would have worn a hole in the carpet. Basically, if your carpet needs replaced or re-stretched this little robot vacuum will cue you in that your carpet needs attention or replacement. It will highlight a bad install of good carpet. It does have a manual operation pad for remote control. It can be set up to run a program vacuum to avoid tight spots. It said it mops, which is to say dust mops. Not wet mops. Spinning whiskers for mopping on side tend to tangle after a few days of use. You can untangle by hand or replace the brush if you want. ( One spare provided) It is worth buying on sale, if you don't have good carpet installation, or uneven wear issues then it is a winner. It can do some throw rugs pretty easily, some not so well. I will keep him for the downstairs cleaning, I will buy internet wifi vision model for the upstairs. I imagine you could use to monitor your house with it. Picture of what happens if your carpet has a wave in it. Vacuum could not get traction on deep carpet and left these marks, which I was able to recover from with a little work.
