Product details

Effortless vacuuming at the touch of a button with the iRobot Roomba 980. Thanks to the three-step cleaning system with rotating side brush and enormous suction power, the vacuum cleaner robot absorbs
large amounts of dirt, dust, hair and other impurities from floors of all kinds and vacuums every area of the floor. Thanks to the rotating side brush, which reaches up to the walls, corners are no problem either. It is compact and reaches every angle. This means that cleaning under furniture is also possible without problems. You don't have to worry about the charging process either, because Roomba 980 automatically returns to its home base for recharging between cleaning passes and even resumes initial cleaning after recharging. The Roomba 980 is child's play to operate: Simply press the Clean button and the vacuum cleaner robot moves safely through the room thanks to iAdapt 2.0 navigation technology. It reliably avoids stairs and obstacles and navigates through untidy areas without damaging furniture. In the case of a large level, it charges in between until the entire surface has been cleaned. The Aeroforce Performance Cleaning System is the ideal combination of vacuum suction power and dirt extraction for thorough cleaning. The brushless construction is virtually maintenance-free thanks to the counter-rotating rubber blades that decompose and lift the coarser dirt. The airflow accelerator and vacuum suction provide maximum suction power and cleaning efficiency. Turbo carpet mode increases the Roomba 980's suction power on carpets and runners, providing up to ten times more suction power. The free iRobot-HOME app for your smartphone or tablet with Android or iOS allows you to create a cleaning schedule. You can use your WLAN to send the robot on its cleaning tour from anywhere. In addition, the app offers you setting options as well as statistics on the cleaning performance and condition of your Roomba.

Insgesamt zeigten die Testkandidaten, angeführt von LG recht gute Saugleistungen, wobei Ecken und Kanten nicht zu ihrem Lieblingsterrain zählen. Sie fahren teilweise sehr geräuschvoll (Dyson, Neato) über die Fläche; dabei rüpeln sie sich bisweilen den Weg frei und schieben Kleinmöbel etc...

Guter RatRoboter im Haushalt - SaugroboterReleaseAugust 2017

Das aktuelle Flaggschiff des Vorreiters arbeitet sicher dank visueller Navigation, geht mit Kabeln und Teppichkanten gelassener um als die anderen, bremst rechtzeitig und sichert den Raum mithilfe zweier Module, die eine virtuelle Barriere aufbauen. Auf dem Teppich erhöht Roomba die Saugleistung von selbst. App-Steuerung ist möglich.

Zurücklehnen und den Robo saugen lassen kann nur, wer die Wohnung vorher präpariert hat. Dann kann das Maschinchen seinen Job unfallfrei erledigen, während die Bewohner außer Haus sind. Wenn er täglich auf Putztour gehen darf, hält ein guter Saugroboter wie der Testsieger von Dyson zumindest glatte Böden sauber...
