Beijing Consumers Association tests 30 sweeping robots | 1/3 sweeps clean

On October 17, the Beijing Consumers Association announced the results of comparative tests on 30 sweeping robot products. The results show that 1/3 of the samples have poor cleaning effect on houses, and the performance of some domestic brands of sweeping robots does not lose international professional brands.

The 30 samples of this comparative trial were purchased by the Consumers Association staff through Jingdong Mall, Xiaomi Mall, Gome Online, Suning Tesco, Tmall Mall and other online platforms. Prices ranged from 328 yuan to 6490 yuan. Sample coverage, hard floor dust removal capability, corner dust removal capability, drop resistance, and obstacle resistance test.

Coverage is the embodiment of the sweeping robot's planning ability and 'intelligent' level. At present, the sweeping robots on the market are divided into two types: 'random cleaning' and 'planning cleaning'. The comparison test found that the random sweeping robot could not Building a clean map, it is impossible to record the areas that have been cleaned, and it is easy to avoid them when encountering obstacles. It is difficult to thoroughly clean the underside of tables and chairs, and it is impossible to achieve full cleaning. The sweeping robots with planned cleaning can often complete cleaning tasks more efficiently. The highest coverage of the 30 samples was the Neato Botvac D7500 model sweeping robot with the highest coverage. The coverage rate was 90.8%. The lowest coverage was the S320 model of the nominal homeguard brand. Sweeping robot, coverage value is 46%.

The purpose of the sweeping robot is to clean the ground. The dust removal ability of the hard floor is the main cleaning ability indicator of the sweeping robot. The comparison test found that the planned cleaning, with roller brush, wide suction port, and hard sample dust removal of the tested sample with strong mode The high capacity. Among the 30 samples, the highest dust removal ability of the hard floor is the RD01 model of the Dyson dyson brand. The hard floor dust removal capacity is 94.4%; the lowest is the sweeping of the L26M model of the Whirlpool brand of Whirlpool. Robot, hard floor dust removal capacity is 20.9%.

The corner dust removal capability is an auxiliary cleaning ability indicator of the sweeping robot. The comparison test found that the edge brush has a moderate distance between the side brush and the suction port, and there is cleaning along the edge and cleaning along the wall. The strong sample mode has a higher dust removal ability. The sweeping robot's own side brush may cause secondary pollution of dust during operation. After testing, among the 30 samples, the most powerful corner dust removal capability is the GW710 model sweeping robot of the famous Cobos ECOVACS brand. The corner dust removal capacity is 76.0%, and the lowest is the S600 model sweeping robot of the nominal sweeping dog SDG brand. The corner dust removal capacity is 17.6%.

In terms of anti-drop ability, only the FC8772 model sweeping robot of the Philips PHILIPS brand and the S15 model sweeping robot of the TCL brand have not passed the anti-drop ability test, indicating that there are certain defects in the soft and hardware design.

Beijing Consumers Association pointed out that in this comparative test, some products have dust removal capacity, small coverage area, obvious product differences, and some prices are too high. The product quality cannot be proportional to the price. It is recommended that consumers choose to lift off the ground to report an alarm or Stop the running product, long press the back button and the product will not fall.
