Xiaomi has presented users with plenty of options to elevate their homes into Smart Homes. Their range of products includes smart mesh networks to smart home appliances, including automated cleaning products. The range of Xiaomi Robot Vacuum cleaners offers a wide variety of features and optimisations to meet the needs of any household across various price points.
Choosing the best solution for your requirement is an important part of the process, and knowing which solutions offer which features is a great start. The range of smart vacuum cleaners includes the Xiaomi Robot Vacuum E10 (BHR6783EU), S10 (BHR5988EU), S10+ (BHR6368EU) and the X10+ & Auto-Empty Station (BHR6363EU). While each of them offers a level of automation that will ease your daily workload, the variations range up to a fully autonomous “setup and forget” solution that requires only minimal attention every few days.
Each of the products from the range of Xiaomi Robot Vacuum cleaners features automated cleaning functionality. This includes capabilities across different surfaces, including mopping on tiles and vacuuming on carpet. There are three levels of water usage for your mopping requirements, depending on the cleaning. For regular maintenance, a lower setting is all that’s required to keep your tiles clean. However, for harder stains and fresh dirt, a higher setting to clean stubborn dirt may be required.
Additionally, there are also four levels of suction across the vacuum cleaners. As with the mop function, this depends on whether you’re maintaining your carpets and rugs or performing a deep clean. With suction up to 4,000Pa, each of the robot vacuums is able to provide a deep clean on your carpets when needed.
