China Consumers Association: Coworth, Panasonic and other cleaning robots have poor cleaning performance

With the 80, 90 become the main force of consumer electronics market, sweeping robots have become the new favorite of home appliances. With the sweeping robot really can not sweep it? Yesterday, the Consumers Association announced 20 sweeping robot comparison test The results show that the overall cleaning performance of the prototype is quite different, and the performance is not necessarily proportional to the price. The Cobos's sweeping price is over 4,000 yuan; the Panasonic's prototype cleaning rate is the lowest, only 29.63%.

Clear difference in cleaning performance

The 20 samples of the comparative trial were purchased from Beijing appliance stores, Jingdong, Suning, Amazon, and other online platforms. The prices ranged from RMB 799 to RMB 7,499. Comparative tests simulated consumer usage scenarios, aimed at sample safety and The cleaning effect is tested and compared. The functional evaluation project mainly involves cleaning coverage rate, cleaning ability, obstacle avoidance during work, automatic recharging, battery life, noise, etc.

The test found that the difference in the overall cleaning performance is obvious. The coverage rate is an important indicator for judging the level of intelligence of a sweeping robot, that is, whether there is a possibility of missed sweeping during the cleaning process. The 'ecovacs' price of 4158 yuan. Voss' DM86G, 3582 yuan 'FMART FM-570' and 'FMART Fumat' YZ-Q2 these three samples, missing in the specified cleaning time, the coverage is low.

Cleaning ability is one of the important indicators to judge whether the cleaning robot performance is excellent. Among the 20 samples, the best cleaning ability is iRobot's Roomba980. The cleaning rate is 93.34%. The Panasonic Panasonic MC-WRC67 has the lowest cleaning rate. It was 29.63%. In the corner cleaning ability test, the 'Neato' Botvac D8500 priced at 4,380 yuan, the clean rate was only 53.23%, and the iRobot Irobert's Roomba651 was only 57.85%.

Roller type sample winding rate is high

At home, the hair that has fallen off and the pet whose hair is being cleaned are more laborious. It was found that the hair cleanliness rate of 20 robots was over 80%; the cleanliness rate of pet hair was higher than 89%, but the difference in winding was significant. Prototype winding rate is generally low; Roller brush type prototype most of the winding is more obvious, higher winding rate.

Sweeping robots will encounter obstacles such as long-haired carpets, thresholds, floor lamps, lamp lines, radiators, etc. during cleaning. Can they bypass these obstacles and not be entangled with wires? Only a small number of models can be tested during the test. During cleaning of the long-haired carpets, some of the opportunities were entangled by cables, and even some cases where the side brushes were stuck. 'iRobot Irobert' Roomba 651, 'Proscenic Pusannik' SUZUKA had the lowest comprehensive obstacle ability rating.

Automatic recharging ensures that the sweeping robot has enough power to perform the next sweep. This test totaled 27 times. The number of successes of the 'Midea Mido' VR10F2-TB and 'Proscenic Pusanike' SUZUKA prototypes was 22 times. And 24 times.

In the test, the model with the lowest average noise is the “puppy” V-M611, which is about 53 decibels. Some models are equipped with a high-end model, so the suction is larger, but the noise is even greater. 'iRobot Irobert' Roomba980 Sample noise reached about 72 decibels.

According to the results of this test, China Consumer Relations Association reminds consumers that sweeping robots cannot completely sweep every corner of the house. Therefore, it is not necessary to purchase a sweeping robot without cleaning. The Chinese Consumer Co-op reminds that different sweeping robots have different focuses. Functionality should be based on the needs of their own home environment, choose the right product.
