- 3i G10+ has a large trash can on board with dust compression
- It’s designed to hold up to two months of dirt at once
- This removes the need for a voluminous Self -Tim Dock
If your home is on the smaller side but you still want a robot vacuum, typically make a choice: Choose a voluminous dock with a large dust cup that Robovac can automatically empty, or take a compact, only charge dock and commit to manually emptying the bot’s small onboard hill regularly.
3i has come with a third option. Its newly advertised G10+ robot wacuum has built -in dust compression and aims to be the best robot vacuum for those with small homes.
Inside you will find a mechanical paddle that physically squish the contents of the boarding rod when the bot is about cleaning, to maximize how much dirt it can carry. The onboard bowl itself is also large at 950 ml – larger than the one found on most wireless vacuum.
All it means that even though there is nowhere for the robot to dump its dirt in the dock, it still should not need to empty too often. In fact, 3i suggests it can last up to eight weeks of dust and dirt … Although it will vary by how much in your home is to suck up. (Pet owners should expect to empty it more regularly, for example.) If you are concerned that dirt is stored for so long, 3i have added a built-in UV light to sterilization of the trash.
There are additional benefits to this setup. Dust crushing happens in real time when the robot cleanses and it is silent. You never have to listen to the (sometimes noisy) sound from your robot wacuum that auto-emerging every time it parks up. And there are no dock dust bags to dispose of or to remember to buy.
3i is not quite the first Robovac brand to explore the idea of dust compression, but it looks like the best current option for those with limited space. Narwal Freo X Plus has compression on board, but this model still comes with a voluminous dock; One that has water tanks but no dust bag. The apparently upcoming iRobot Roomba 205 Dustcompactor Combo offers dust compression and a only charged dock, but I am not convinced that you will actually make it for sale considering the company’s recent problems.
Elsewhere, 3i G10+ has an extended side brush and mop for effective edge cleaning (the latter via a mop pad with an unusual projection) and a very decent 18,000 on suction. There is automatic carpet detection and intelligent suction and adjustment of water flow based on the type of dirt that bot encounters, and the same Lidar navigation system and AI-driven obstacle period as 3I’s flagship model (S10 Ultra).
It is also relatively affordable – the list price is $ 499, but it is launched with a discount that takes it down to $ 399 (usually an indicator that it will generally not be sold at list price). One of the things that often encounter the price of today’s flagship robot vacuum is a fancy dock that offers things like cleaning mop pad; If you do not necessarily want these things but are still eager for an advanced robot vacuum, this can potentially be a good solution.
3i G10+ Robot Vacuum is sold at Amazon OS on May 29. We are in the process of testing it and getting a review live for you to read as soon as possible.
