I went ahead with Narwal Freo X Plus and I am happy with it.
Initially had seen lots of review between Ecovacs N20 Pro and Freo X Plus.
Got the Freo one at 24.5k
True.
Due to no actual real offices or manufacturing plants locally, i was skeptical about spending more. Hence got the cheapest of their offerings.
I am happy with the vaccuming.
Have bought the Narwal Freo X Plus. Its good and works without any hiccups for me. Would it last 5 years? I don't know.
The common expectation of any Robovac is around 3 years I think.
How about the Narwal Freo X Plus? Its brush roller is nearly identical to higher-end models.
While it lacks an automatic dust disposal feature, its large dustbin and one-touch emptying make it a non-issue unless you're dealing with exceptionally high levels of debris.
It should be on sale for about half the regular price.
My Narwal Freo X Plus (relatively budget-friendly) can schedule cleaning for specific rooms only. You can schedule multiple cleanings per day.
By the way, for each schedule you set, you can specify the cleaning order for rooms and the cleaning method per room (cleaning Mode, suction power, Mopping Humidity, Cycle, Coverage Precision).
How is the dust collection setting configured? Please try setting the frequency to “Always.” When set to “Always,” the Narwal robot will empty the dustbin at the start of every subsequent cleaning session. (Note that this occurs before cleaning, not after.)
Due to patent issues, it appears that products other than iRobot do not have the capability to detect when the dustbin is full.
NARWAL Freo x plus worked wonders for our golden retriever household. It never got tangled once in our 2 years of having it. We only gave it away because we upgraded to the Flow.
This is the robot I have. It's just me and a cat, I ordered a bunch of off brand disposable dustbins, and I throw them away pretty infrequently. Base is very short and I have it in my pantry (door always open) under the bottom shelf of a wire shelving unit. I'll see if I can find a picture.
This looks quite like my Narwal Freo X Plus I think it is (I renamed it Cleanbot 3000 in the app so I often forget it's actual name).
My dining table has angled legs, so it often bumps them (gently) once and then artfully goes around them. However sometimes it gets behind/between legs of things and can't find it's way out.
I know these days the robot vacuums are vacuum and mop and that’s fine but my kids are messy and I’m vacuuming under the dining room table 5 times a day. Crumbs, nothing wet or gooey. I already have a robot vacuum that vacuums and mops (Roborock) but often he’s busy cleaning other areas of the house and he doesn’t have the battery to do everything all the time.
We have luxury vinyl plank floors plus a little bit of carpet. Looking for a budget friendly (maybe less than $300? Even cheaper would be better) robot vacuum to be good at cleaning up crumbs. Don’t want to have to empty the dustbin every day or even all that often if possible… disposable dust bag important. Low maintenance would also be great but also reliable (aka no getting lost).
Any recs?
Ah ok. I previously had a Narwal Freo x plus (actually I still have it but it has too many issues) and it doesn’t self empty but it has a large disposable dust bin on board. I only have to change it every 3 weeks or so. I’d be ok with an option like that too.
How is washing it clean and letting it dry an unnecessary step? The last time I had a reusable dust bag, it was a Narwal and it would always get moisture in there and then dirt would get stuck and it wasn’t just as easy as dumping it and putting it back in. Otherwise the dirt would keep building up in there. Maybe if my machine wasn’t used for mopping too it would be different but I don’t have 2 separate vacuum machines.

Reliable, great mopping (lifts pads), but poor cable avoidance.
