Had this thing for around a year when i got it it was the cheapest robot vacuum with lidar.after a year here's what i think of IT: It vacuums supriseingly well actually i keep it on medium power because i don't really see a diference betwen medium and turbo power.the mopping thoung isn't briliant it does get very light Dirt of but it doesn't clean dried on stains even with the max Water setting.but its very good for daily maintanance cleaning.i have it set on a schedual so it cleans every day at 10:30 in the morning,and over this 1 Year period nothing has gone bad, it îs still on its original consumabiles I switch the mop every 2 Days with a other mop. The only minor issue is that now when it turns on the lidar sensor makes a teriable almolst tractor like sound when the lidar spins up,in rest there is only minor cosmetic damage,it does get stuck by closing the door to the bathroom by itself. But in my opinion it îs a very good product for the price and i Highly recomand it

Thats one of the best from Xiaomi line. I have an S20 and its been great so far. Nothing better when you can have someone else do the vacuum and mopping of your floors. Love it.

I got my xiaomi s20 for less than 100eur during black Friday I really love it. Of course it doesn't replace the cleaning, but I don't have to make it as often. Keep in mind the maintenance and the consumables

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

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.
