Description:
Xiaomi's smart home ecosystem has a new addition today! The Mi Robot Vacuum is a highly intelligent home cleaning device with 12 different sensors. The Laser Distance Sensor ( LDS ) scans its surroundings 360 degree, 1800 times per second, to map out the interiors of your house. The three processors track its movements in real-time, and the Simultaneous Localization and Mapping ( SLAM ) algorithm calculates the most efficient route for cleaning. Using the Mi Home app, you can switch on and remotely control the robot, change cleaning modes and set schedules, Additionally, a powerful Nidec brushless DC motor, a main brush with adjustable height and a 5200mAh Li-ion battery for up to 2.5 hours of cleaning, attractive in price and quality, all these make it stand out of the market. Get the Mi Robot Vacuum and dirt will not stand a chance!
I'm getting sooooo tempted with this! Why not? You open out front door and it's odds on a Xiaomi product falls out of it at the moment so why not? :relaxed:
Apparently this uses the same brushless motor as the Roomba 980, which costs over 800 quid!

Certainly your door by the look of it lol. Nearly every post and comment you make is about Xiaomi products or Gearbest. If the products good and the price is right it will sell no matter how much self promotion.

Well done! When I read your post I had you down as one of those moaning minnies with nil deals posted but I see you've actually averaged 2 deals per year since joining. A bargain is a bargain no matter what it is, or where it comes from. My area of 'expertise' is the Chinese market in general and Xiaomi in particular, hence my deals being predominantly about this area recently. Look back and there are lots of deals about all kinds of things from all kinds of places. In fact, having just checked I've actually posted 19 non-Chinese deals in the last 12 months, whereas you've posted 19 non-Chinese deals in 9.5 years. I win :relaxed:
Accusing me of self promotion suggests you believe I'm getting recompense for posting the deals. If you think so, accuse me directly/unequivocably and we'll take it from there.I'll see how you get on with your 2 deals next year...

It was you who brought up the subject of deals posted. If you can't stand the heat etc...
More deals and less moaning would be my advice.

Got one of these on order from the yoshop deal. Afaik it's the sweet spot for price/performance, proper LDS room mapping allows it to go around objects, cover more ground and cover what ground there is more thoroughly. Both the vacuum and the app can be set to english now. Generation 2 adds mopping which works about as well as dragging a damp mop around the floor can be expected to, not worth an extra £200 for that.
I've already got googly eyes and a name picked out, 'Noo-noo' from the teletubbies.

After watching the gadget show last week, all of these are a waste of money. Even the dyson they tested failed miserably.

I get this totally but they are cool. I know I can do a better job with my Vax but I think I could a better job on my lawn with garden shears but still persist with a lawnmower :lipstick: Embarrassing, I know.

This one is the real deal. It really helps around the house. Thought it was a gimmick at first and didn't think much if it. Vacuumed right afterwards as a test and barely got much more. Probably the hard to reach corners it couldn't get. In the end this does more vacuuming than I would because it can easily go under the bed/sofa/wardrobe

I haven't seen what you've seen and you haven't linked to it but I'm guessing the complaints are that these: 1) Don't clean that well 2) miss patches 3) fall down stairs 4) mess up your furniture 5) are expensive
These don't miss patches, fall down stairs, mess up your furniture (that's what the improved navigation fixes) and aren't that expensive (roomba 980 is £900 for comparison), so the big one is don't clean as well as a dedicated vacuum. There's a simple way to prove they're better. When's the last time you vacuumed under the beds and sofa? When's the last time you vacuumed your entire house? In my case it's months ago and never as I do one room at a time.
These vacuums will run every single day and cover the entire house including under beds, sofas and whatever they can fit under. They will do it regardless of whether you've had a good or bad day, whether you're tired or busy. They only ask that you empty their bins at the end of the day.

Gearbest is good if you are willing to wait at least 1-2 months. Ordered so many times from them and each time it takes up to 2 months to arrive

£26.62 charge from DPD for customs on my brothers order. The customs charge should really be considered and included in the overall price of these.

My old Electrolux Trilobite is still going strong.. definately cleans better than a roomba or its clones. They were very expensive new though and over-engineered with sonar based room mapping.
