The mop function is not very good, spreads the dirt around rather than lifting it. Regret spending the extra on that because we still have to do that job ourselves.Vacuum is best if it is set perpendicular to a wall before it starts.

I got my first robot a couple of months ago. I was told we would all have robots by the year 2000 when I was at school in the 1970s and this was to be my first.Out of the box Veronica worked well, it connected to the wifi and the phone app worked, although the app could do with some improvements (it can't select all of the modes).Veronica is good at vacuuming I was impressed with its sucking power, it picked up a lot of dirt. The problem was that it attacks anything it can reach, got a phone charger? Expect the lead to be swallowed, along with laces, the bottom of curtains pretty much anything.When it comes to rugs forget it, one rug it couldn't work on and just went backwards on it the other it tried to eat (see above).As for the mopping function it just drags the mop around, it doesn't really do any cleaning, It would need to be a lot heavier to actually mop.To be able to use this robot you need to change you life, nothing on the floor, limit its range with boxes as it ignores the magnetic strip that's supposed to stop it and expect to answer its constant call of "please put the device on a safe surface"Then after a while Veronica got some kind of mental illness and went at triple speed bumping into everything and not being able to move in a straight line, so it went back.I've now bought a new vacuum, a manual one.The wait for my first robot continues......

To be able to use this robot you need to change you life, nothing on the floor, limit its range with boxes as it ignores the magnetic strip that's supposed to stop it and expect to answer its constant call of "please put the device on a safe surface"
