There is no manual control mode.

Representative of one of the most popular lines of automated cleaning robots on the market today. The device is powered by a built-in battery and can work up to 120 minutes on a single charge, after which (or just at the end of cleaning) the equipment will independently return to the base for charging. The user can configure the device to work in 2 modes: dry cleaning of the entire room or part of it, designating zones for action with virtual walls.

The device can also be controlled remotely from a smartphone by downloading the appropriate application. The suction power is 33 W, but at the same time, the iRobot Roomba 980 is very quiet — the generated noise does not exceed 55 dB. The dust collector of the cyclone type with a capacity of 1.1 L is equipped with a HEPA filter on blowing, which guarantees that dust microparticles do not enter the air space of the room. Special touch sensors and a mapping system protect equipment from falls from stairs, collisions with furniture and other obstacles. In the “arsenal” of the robot there is a main turbo brush and additional side brush rollers. The algorithm of work is cleaning a given area in 2 passes, which improves the overall quality of cleaning.

Video reviews

The iRobot brand specializes in the development and production of robotics for domestic use (previously its products were also aimed at military purposes). In the line of robotic vacuum cleaners of the American company, the oldest model stands out — iRobot Roomba 980.

Key Features

"Smart Cleaner" has two key features at once: it is equipped with a camera for visual positioning in the premises, as well as a Wi-Fi module for connection and control of all parameters via a compatible smartphone (based on Android or iOs). To be able to remotely change settings on a portable gadget, you need to install the iRobot Home application, among the possibilities of which are deferred cleaning planning for a week in advance, choosing the type of cleaning, diagnostics of all components and assemblies of the device, etc.

Galaxy of sensors

The assembly of the device is made at a high quality level. Thanks to spring-loaded wheels, it is able to overcome low obstacles, and a whole galaxy of various sensors will protect the vacuum cleaner from possible collisions and falls. In addition, special sensors are located on the belly of the robot, which are responsible for recognizing the surface material — in the event of a drive on the carpet, the device will automatically increase the power level for more efficient suction of dust and litter. And one side brush located on the starboard side will help to get the garbage out of the corners. When the battery is low, the vacuum cleaner automatically paves the way to the base, which happens about two hours after the start of cleaning.

virtual walls

Among the interesting features offered by iRobot Robotic 980, virtual walls stand out as a special line — accessories to limit the trajectory of the vacuum cleaner(2 beacons included). One use for them is to create a protective barrier around pet food bowls.

high tech

The numerous functions of the robot vacuum cleaner do not include only manual control (which looks a little strange, given the presence of a camera for visual orientation). You should definitely count on this opportunity in the near future, because software updates for the device are released regularly. Only its high cost can confuse potential buyers of a vacuum cleaner, but, as you know, you have to pay for high-tech products.
