A30 Pro

I am using [ilife a30](https://s.shopee.ph/9fAxEeJ20M) for 3 years now. Very durable and maasahan talaga in cleaning our floor

I have a ILife A30 pro..costs around 20-22k Does a decent job, you need to fill water & clean the mopper manually.. sweeping it does on its own and empties the dust as well. Periodic maintenance is needed but if you're looking for an auto cleaning one, idk what it does but there are higher versions available. The mopping and sweeping together is a bad combo since the dust that it hasn't sucked in, sticks to the floor but if done separately, it does 90-95% of the job

In 2020 I got what at the time was an off-brand (it wasnt a Roomba) called iLife, and it just died a few months ago, after running almost every day on my old dusty carpeting that used to have 2 dogs. I was so horrified that I was still getting dog hair every day in that thing YEARS after both dogs had passed. Every day, dust and crud and hair. My hair too, good Lord how is there any on my head. Anyway, I upgraded to a self-emptying one of the same brand and it is SO great. Highly recommend, and much cheaper than the original. I chage the little filter every week on the old one, and the new one sends me a message when either the small filter or the bag in the collection unit needs changing.

If you get one, save the packaging and buy the extended warranty so you can get a refund when it dies. My first two (different manufacturers) lasted about 2 years each and then behaved erratically, spinning in place or repeatedly ramming furniture. Sending them back for repairs was too pricey so I trashed them. The third one I bought was an iLife which was only $180, and it lasted about 3 years, until the rechargeable battery died. I trashed that too because I couldn’t find a replacement battery that fit the compartment. It was a weird triangle shape. iLife said they didn’t sell those as replacement parts and didn’t have any suggestions on where I could obtain one.

Same! iLife is a good brand too.

Whichever brand you plan to buy, first understand how the service works. For ilife I had to ship it to Delhi and was asked to pay 3/4th of the entire unit cost to repair. Its all good until it stops working. So, have a clear understanding of the warranty, parts covered and most of all, where are the service centre’s.

I tried many of the name brand vacuum robots - iRobot, Eufy, Shark. They’re all so disappointing and SO expensive. Mapping is a joke. So is mopping. Right now I have two iLIFE robots. They are cheap and brainless but have good vacuum suction and do a decent job except when it comes to getting stuck under objecting, attempting to suck up cat toys, electrical cables, and clean corners. LOL! Why two? These are cheap so I bought one and then said to myself, you are going to regret not buying a replacement. And at $200 a piece I am fine with that.
