R750

I had owned an early version of a Roomba and, after using that a couple of times, it basically sat unused for years and really turned me off of robot vaccum's. It just didn't do a good job with the way it bounced off walls and obstacles like a pinball machine. Plus, I've owned Golden Retrievers that shed enough hair every day to be able to knit a whole other dog and the Roomba was constantly getting clogged with dog hair and had to be "worked on" multiple times each time I cleaned the house.So, I used a Dyson Pet Vaccum, which does a fantastic job as long as I'm the one pushing it around the floor.When I saw a deal on the Coredy R750, about a year ago, I decided to give Robot vacuums another try and I really do love the R750.While I'm sure there are better robot vacuums available, I'm not sure there are better robot vacs for the same low cost as the Coredy.I have all hardwood floors with some tile and the vacuum does a fantastic job of really getting all the pet hair and other debris off the floor.It finds its way into places normal vacuums can't go, It crawls under the beds, dressers, night tables, etc. that have only a few inches of head clearance and the intelligence is good enough that it can also find it's way back out, even if the only entrance/exit is just a little bigger than the robot. I also like the way it follows the baseboards to get the entire floor clean right up to the edges.I absolutely love being able to be working from my home office, pick up the cell phone, and start a cleaning cycle so it's vacuuming the house while I'm working. The whole reason I purchased the robot was to save my personal time and that it does!When the cleaning is over, the robot just returns to it's docking station to re-charge and I empty the bin and remove any pet hair caught in the brushes when I get a chance so it's ready for the next cycle.Also, I just installed a new Wi-Fi router and had problems getting the robot working again on the new network. So, I called Coredy and they immediately answered the phone and David, who was the person answering the call, was able to walk me through getting it working again in a matter of a few minutes (Dave needs to get a promotion!).The only caution I would give is to be aware that this is a robot and does require some more maintenance than just emptying the collection bin, especially if you have long-haired pets. There's nothing real technical involved, but you need to be prepared to empty the bin more often than a standard vacuum (due to its smaller size), and clean the roller brush and side brushes regularly to ensure good performance.Also, don't expect the mopping function to replace a mop. The mop is the equivalent of dragging a wet sponge across the floor. This works fine if the floor is already fairly clean but, with a dirty floor, it will just end up streaking. That said, you can still get a dirty floor clean, it will just require multiple cycles of mopping to really do the job.I hope this helps!

First off, I would like to start out by clarifying a couple of things that were a bit confusing for me as I was trying to research this little guy.I noticed that depending on where you look, you can find different suction specifications for this robot. Even on Coredy’s website, all of the pictures state 1600Pa suction, but then in the description it says 2000Pa strong suction. So, I called Coredy to see what the actual spec was. Here is what they told me...All R750’s manufactured after March 2020 are an upgraded version of the robot with 2000Pa of suction and a 3200mAh battery (an upgrade from the previous 2600mAh battery).Also, the “virtual boundary” in the description, I feel, is a bit misleading. The definition of virtual is “not physically existing as such but made by software to appear to do so” or “carried out, accessed, or stored by means of a computer, especially over a network”. However, these “virtual” boundaries are the actual physical, magnetic strips that are provided in the box, NOT at all controlled by anything inside the app. But, at this price point, I guess that can’t really be expected, but I wish this would have been a little less misleading.Overall, I am very pleased with this robot! I got this as an upgrade to our Roomba 618 for the added features of the mopping function and the ability to schedule/control it via the app from anywhere, provided internet connectivity.I would say that the R750 is as good, if not better than the Roomba 618 at vacuuming. Although the R750 is significantly quieter, even on max suction! (The attached dust bin picture is only after a few minutes or random navigation and a run of edge mode. Keep in mind that my wife had manually vacuumed just a few days prior). The only two things I would slightly give the nod to the Roomba about would be that it does seem to find its dock a bit better than R750, and it has a handle on top to move it around that the R750 does not. Otherwise, I do think that the R750 matches or beats the Roomba 618 in all other aspects, especially in object detection. The Roomba 618 will just ram into things until its bumper sensors are activated, so much so that I put a foam strip on the bottom of it the help save it from scuffing up the furniture. The R750 on the other hand seems to notice obstacles about 2 inches out, will slow down and totally avoid it, or just barely bump into it. Also, the edge cleaning feature is great, and is completely lacking on the Roomba 618.The mopping function is great! I especially like the fact that you are able to control the amount of water that it delivers using an electronic air pump to push the water out. Also, since the water holes aren’t that small and the liquid never goes through the pump, I’ve been using floor cleaner in it as well, and this really does a great job for a combo robot. The only thing I was slightly disappointed about, but not a deal breaker by any means, is that, even on low, the amount of water coming out is just a bit too much to use on the hardwood floors. But, it’s great for tile! Also of note, as you can see in the picture, the mopping attachment still has a bit of a dust bin, and it appears that the main brush may be rolling as it mops, as it still picks up some larger debris while mopping. But, the suction motor is clearly off, as it is significantly quieter while mopping than vacuuming.The app is completely sufficient as well. It allows you to control it, just like the included remote control, along with the added benefits of setting up custom schedules and controlling the robot away from home.Overall, I am quite happy with this purchase! And I am not really missing any of the luxury features of other robots that are twice the price of this, or more! Thanks Coredy!
