A good simple vacuum cleaner with a three-liter dust collector and rubberized wheels that do not scratch the coating. He copes with his duties perfectly well. Convenient location of the brushes - the furniture one extends, and the crevice conveniently lies under the lid of the vacuum cleaner. There is no turbo brush included, but thanks to the suction power of 375 W, the unit copes even with soft wool without it, though you have to put up with a fairly high noise level. A little frustrating is the lack of a HEPA filter and suction power adjustment. There is a suction on the pipe, but it does not help much.

PROS:

• Good suction quality;
• Big power;
• Ease of changing nozzles;
• Good build quality;
• Rubberized wheels;
• Fine filter included.

MINUSES:

• No HEPA filter;
• No power regulator;
• The hose is twisted.

How to choose equipment for wet cleaning?

To choose a reliable, multifunctional and high-quality unit for wet cleaning, it is necessary to take into account some features of the equipment and also focus on your needs.

Criterion #1 - Water tank capacity

For wet cleaning in washing units, special water tanks, means for washing and collecting liquids are installed. If your apartment has 1-2 rooms, then you can safely buy a vacuum cleaner with a small tank volume - up to 2-3 liters.

You can also pay attention to robotic models, although up to 1 liter of water can be poured into their tanks. They do a good job cleaning floors. For large apartments and houses, you will need a device with a 3-8-liter tank

Thanks to its capabilities, you can clean in one cycle without changing the water.

For large apartments and houses, you will need a device with a 3-8-liter tank. Thanks to its capabilities, you can clean in one cycle without changing the water.

Criterion # 2 - dimensions and power

With the help of conventional units, you can wash windows, cars, carpets, upholstered furniture. The suction power of dust masses determines how efficiently and quickly the cleaning will be done. The higher this indicator, the better the unit will clean the surface from dust, wool, dirt.

But washing robot vacuum cleaners are compact and maneuverable, but they perform only superficial wet cleaning of rooms using microfiber cloths.Only a few models are used to clean sofas and carpets. The rest perform the function of a floor polisher.

Standard wired washing devices are large and heavy due to filling them with water and various means. They are difficult to move, but in terms of functionality they are more practical.

Criterion # 3 - type of device and equipment

Before buying, decide which type of device is best for cleaning surfaces.

If the apartment is dominated by hard flooring, you should pay attention to robots. They do all the work themselves, with minimal user involvement.

If your goal is to clean carpets, paths and furniture from dirt and dust, then it is better to purchase products of a standard type.

The package of wired devices includes several nozzles that are designed for a specific type of cleaning. It is worth choosing a model with the maximum number of brushes, for example, for cleaning furniture, collecting liquid, polishing.

What to look for when choosing?

Many models are endowed with various functions that are suitable for specific tasks. What you expect from a vacuum cleaner is up to you, but we will help you deal with the selection criteria:

• If possible, it is better to opt for a powerful model. This vacuum cleaner will help you clean carpets from hair and wool. You are less likely to have to pull out a stationary vacuum cleaner for general cleaning.
• For those who do not want to spend a lot, there are budget options that are not inferior in their characteristics to expensive models. With them, daily cleaning is carried out efficiently and quickly.
• To save time and effort, we recommend that you look at models that combine 2 types of cleaning: dry and wet.

The best washing robot vacuum cleaners

Robotic washing models are well suited for busy people who do not have the opportunity to devote enough time to cleaning, but at the same time want to see a clean apartment and breathe clean air

But to really enjoy quality cleaning, you need to pay attention to functionality and the ability to overcome obstacles.

The best manufacturers of washing vacuum cleaners

Among the manufacturers of washing vacuum cleaners, there are both those whose name is well-known, and little-known

In addition to the big name, be sure to pay attention to the quality of the device, the warranty, the availability of spare parts and consumables for sale, and the location of service centers in your city. The following brands won the greatest trust:

• Thomas is a German company that produces vacuum cleaners in different price segments. It was founded in 1900 and is run by the fourth generation of the family.Its great advantage is that the production facilities are located only in Germany.
• Bosch is another German company that has been designing vacuum cleaners for over 65 years.
• ARNICA is a Turkish company that grew out of the home appliance manufacturer Senur. Although she is over 50 years old, she is not very well known in the European market, but she produces the highest quality vacuum cleaners, which users only respond positively to.
• Kitfort is a relatively young Russian company that started operations in 2011. Initially, they produced induction cookers, but subsequently began to make various household appliances. The domestic manufacturer, among other things, stands out with favorable prices.

Which washing vacuum cleaner is better to choose

The choice of a washing vacuum cleaner largely depends on your goals. If you need wet cleaning in a small room, it is better not to take up space with bulky classic vacuum cleaners, but to give preference to vertical compact models. If you don’t want and can’t take the time to wash the aquaboxes and, in principle, to clean manually, get a robot vacuum cleaner - they are ideal for everyday floor cleaning. If there are allergy sufferers in the house, it is better to choose classic washing vacuum cleaners.

Best Inexpensive Robot Vacuum Cleaners

Ordinary vacuum cleaners, whatever they may be, can hardly be called compact enough. In any case, for their storage, you will have to allocate some area in the closet or pantry. In addition, without human intervention, such devices are unable to do anything, which is a significant disadvantage for busy people. Another thing is robotic vacuum cleaners, which can be stored on any low shelf or under the bed, and turned on for self-cleaning. Fortunately, such devices have now become available to a wide range of customers. So, the average cost of two robotic vacuum cleaners that we selected for review is only 7,500 rubles.

1. Clever & Clean 004 M-Series

The inexpensive Clever & Clean 004 M-Series robot vacuum cleaner is a great example of how to make quality appliances. Impeccable assembly, accurate work, autonomy up to 50 minutes, as well as optional equipment with a washing panel for wiping the floor - all these are significant arguments for buying this robot. The 004 M-Series charges in 4 hours, but, unfortunately, it cannot do this automatically.

Advantages:

• cleaning quality;
• you can buy a washing panel;
• stylish appearance;
• ease of management;
• good battery life;
• reliable design;
• compact dimensions.

Flaws:

• there is no dust bag full indicator;
• no charging station.

2. BBK BV3521

Closes the rating of robotic vacuum cleaners, perhaps the best vacuum cleaner in terms of price-quality ratio - BBK VB3521. Its cost starts from 7200 rubles and for this amount the device offers not only dry, but also wet cleaning, autonomy up to 90 minutes (1500 mAh battery) and charging up to 100% in 4 hours. At the same time, the robot returns to the base for recharging on its own, which is almost impossible to meet in such a budget device. This reliable and silent robot vacuum cleaner also boasts a remote control and allows you to set a timer. The capacity of the dust collector in BBK BV3521 is standard for its class and is equal to 350 ml.

Advantages:

• dry and wet cleaning;
• there is a timer setting;
• excellent autonomy;
• high build quality;
• the presence of a large number of sensors;
• affordable cost;
• automatic charging.

Conclusions and useful video on the topic

What to look for when buying professional models of cleaning equipment - key criteria:

When choosing a professional model, it is worth comparing the personal needs or needs of a particular enterprise with the functionality, characteristics, quality, price range of equipment. It all depends on the purpose of the purchase.

In some cases, it is better to purchase a more expensive narrow-profile model than a cheap multi-purpose cleaner that may not be up to the task.
