Xiaomi - Mi Robot Vacuum-Mop P (STYJ02YM)

Mi Mop-P. Running for 5 years. Not as fancy as the current ones out there. First time I got it done at the shop I purchased the battery from. Second time I did it myself. The replacement battery quality isn’t great though

I’ve been eyeing the narwals as they have really high rating for hard floors and not getting clogged with hair. It also supposedly compacts well so doesn’t have to be emptied as often. Doesn’t self clean or empty though. I have the Mi P-2100 and I have to clean the roller every single time because of my wife’s and dog’s hair. If hair isn’t a problem then maybe another brand would be better. The Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2 seems to have overall positive reviews and it looks like the only one within your budget that self-empties as far as I can see.

i have one from MI basic one.. using since 5 yrs. had to replace the battery once. working fine otherwise.

Vaccum Mop P something.. they keep pushing new models. i bought the one they launched earliest.

I have one from MI. Even when i use mop and cleaning on full power it usually cleans in one charge..

I’ve been using Mi robotic vacuum cleaners for 4 years. My first one was the Vacuum-Mop P, and I recently exchanged it for the X10. I haven’t faced any issues, and Mi has a good service network. On the other hand, my brother bought the Dreame D10s Plus, and now its suction isn’t working. He has been following up with customer care for more than 3 months without resolution. So, I would recommend not buying Dreame.

I have N30 pro since February, the support is great. The auto dust suction didn’t work, I called them and their support person has come to check the issue in a couple days. There wasn’t any issues, just the holder where dustbag goes had too much of dust that it blocked the sensor. Cleaning that fixed my problem. It’s a good product, never seen my house so clean before. I had an mi robomop p, this was an upgrade. Go for it.

I have 2 cats too, one long haired and one short. Tried many many vacuums over the 10+ years that I’ve had my cat. Here’re my personal take on the vacuums as someone who works full time and don’t necessarily have time to clean daily. Dyson: Have the version with the laser. Cost $$$$ but it’s lasted me ~5 years now and still going strong. Fur shows up really well with the laser and imo is a must for pet households. However the fur gets caught in the dust drum especially if your cat is long haired. I would suggest saving up for a laser vacuum, but not necessarily a Dyson one. Side note laser don’t really work well on soft or textured floors (carpets and textured mats), so consider your own situation before you invest. Shark: Had this before the Dyson, so its an old model. Did it’s job, less costly but it was a bit heavier. Broke after 3ish years? Was a bit difficult to clean out the tangled fur too. Random handheld for ~$50 off shopee: Had this in the interim between the shark and the Dyson. My floor LOOKED clean but after turning on the Dyson laser it was an absolute nightmare. Fur and dust EVERYWHERE. So thats why I love the laser. Wet dry robot vacuum from Xiao Mi: It was okay for a while but then things started getting tangled in it (I also have clutter). Also the mop function isn’t very strong so you’d still need to hand mop ~1-2 times a week. After a while it somehow forgot my floor layout and would only mop half of the living room before returning to dock. Also cleaning the vacuum itself was a pain. If your cat is the kind to poop on the floor or cough up hairballs often, I would exercise caution since if your cat ever made a mess when you are out, and the vacuum goes over it, you might just come home to 💩 streaks all over…. Old style vaccum with cord and cylinder: Have this as a backup vacuum. The suction is much better than cordless handheld stick vacuums. Cordless is bad at picking up fur in soft floor like carpet or mats. Con is it’s heavy and less wieldy than cordless. Given your budget I would actually go with a lighter corded vacuum since most budget cordless are bad at picking up fur off anything thats not hard floor… Look for stuff built specifically for pet hair and try out the vacuum in stores if you can. Also look up reviews on Youtube that are 6 month to 1 year post purchase for pet households. Some vacuums lose suction fast.

Got a dog that sheds a lot and leaves saliva marks on the floor. I had cheap xiaomi robot vacuum mop before, still had to clean a few times a week. Switched to dreame x40 ultra + a levoit air purifier, now i dont really vacuum or mop at all, and i dust the furniture less frequently
