I’ve owned two robot vacuums now, this being the second. The first one I bought was from a no-name Chinese brand, which no longer sells the vacuum on Amazon or their site. I didn’t break the bank with that vacuum – it was like less than $100 I believe. The issue with that one is that it was just bumper car style – bouncing off of the walls. Also, there was no “smart” features connected to it at all and it was handled with a simple remote. Eventually, the battery just wouldn’t hold. After vacuuming for 5 minutes it would return to the charger. Anyways, with my second vacuum, I wanted to have it more future-proof than my last one. I looked around at the more expensive models, like the ones around $1000 from the more popular robot vacuum brands, and they justified the cost because of room/zone mapping, self-cleaning, LIDAR, etc. So, I was down, but I didn’t want to spend $1000+. This Samsung Jet Bot, which I named Cleonardo DiCaprio, so far is ticking off all the boxes I had for a robot vacuum for the next few years. First, setup was kind of an interesting experience. It’s not as simple as an Apple device, definitely not. Though it’s what you’d expect from a non-Apple device, I guess. You have to sync your vacuum with the Samsung SmartThings app, which isn’t the easiest to use. At first, the vacuum wouldn’t sync to my wifi, requiring me to reboot the vacuum and my phone to ultimately get it working. Once it connected, everything was pretty seamless. Once it charged up, it did a zone/room mapping of my loft. The feature is cool I guess, but after having it for a week I honestly just let the thing go on auto and it cleans my whole place. It is cool how it can differentiate “no go zones” without me having to Cleonardo, but to say that it requires little supervision would be a mistake. At times it would still get stuck under chair legs, or under my fridge, which I’d have to then adjust. I don’t think we’re at a “set it and forget it” world yet for robot vacuums. There have also been times where it would miss a giant piece of dust or lint, so it ain’t flawless. However, the whole LIDAR camera thing is pretty dope. There’s no more bumping off of random objects like a bumper car – its movements genuinely look like it’s looking for all the dirt. There was one time where I was watching it zoom past a piece of dust, thinking if it would catch it. Right after I had that thought it ate it up like the Tasmanian devil. Also, the cleaning of the vacuum is pretty neat as the compartment comes out from the top and it’s pretty easy to access. The self-cleaning models seems like a good idea, but in the case of Samsung the bags needed for changing are few and far between, and actually pretty costly. I wouldn’t recommend going for the self-cleaning versions. Anyways, the last dope feature is the voice activation and the ability to tie it to Google Home. Again, it’s not necessarily plug and play. You’d need to create “scenes” in SmartThings and then add the device to Google Home. But once you get it sorted, asking it to “activate ‘room service’” sends Cleonardo into a cleaning frenzy. Then finally, the voice from the actual vacuum is a nice touch – it actually feels futuristic. I would definitely recommend this Jet Bot to someone looking for more futuristic features from their robot vacuum without breaking the bank. I was lucky enough to get this on discount from Amazon, which made it a no brainer. But I think I’d still get it without the discount – it’s a sweet middle spot for people looking for a robot vacuum to last them a few years (i hope!). Plus it’s sexy AF.

I have the Samsung robot mop and love it. So I thought I would try this guy out. We have been unhappy with the off brands and the mager brands. But we had not tried Samsung and glad we did. This thing is so smart and much quieter then the other Robots. I have been recommending it to all my friends and co workers. It’s worth the money because the cleaning is superior and the technology is amazing.

I have 3 dogs that shed like crazy! I run this vacuum everyday (after checking that there have been no messes). My floors have never been so hair and dirt free! I absolutely LOVE this vacuum. The only thing I would do different is have a mop feature, but, hey, I can do that with the next one I get.

Ever try to convince your teenagers to do house chores while they’re going thru their teen life crisis?
It’s easier to get a robot vacuum you can set and forget. It cleans up well and house has been a lot cleaner then if you let your kid vacuum while their on social media with their other hand.
Kidding aside, I looked at several robot vacuums and reviews but decided to get Samsung Jetbot because it was a good price discount I got ordering from Treasure Truck. My wife scolded me when the product arrived. Now she loves it.
The benifits, it does vacuum in several modes and I choose pattern mode with outer edges finished towards the end.
The circular design allows it to turn around 360 pretty much in tight situations whereas Samsungs newer design looks like a dustpan was attached making it harder to turn around.
You can designate multiple rooms after the robot has surveyed your house.
You can designate off limit areas the robot will not enter to clean.
The vacuum can move pretty well between different floor types, carpet and hard floor. It can even go over a few centimeters of height.
It really does a clean job and you can see the difference after it’s done vacuuming.
The cons: … Wish I could say, there is none.
It’s got a decent container size for vacuumed dust but you may want to check it every few weeks to a month, depending on how often you have it programmed to vacuum.
Battery life has been decent and it takes about an hour and a half to clean my home. Battery is almost depleted when it’s done, but it get back to its charger base and will be ready for the next cleanup schedule.
It doesn’t have obstacle avoidance like the newer and pricier models so if you have small items lying around the house like your usb cables. Make sure it’s not on the floor.
If you have pets and they leave their business on the floor, you may be making a bigger mess. Just saying.
The schedule app is nice and works great as it’s their smart things app but I wish they would update their program to allow it to have the option of selecting to do only certain rooms. Currently, i have mine set up to do all rooms, however, if I had the option, I would like to set schedule for certain days to do certain rooms and different t days for other rooms. Like most used areas of the home, do these rooms mon, we’d, fri. Rooms not used often, like guest room, once a week.
Like any vacuum, the rollers will get tangled up with long hair, bit the thing is pretty easy to pull out the roller and clean it up.
The filter and dust bin are easy to clean with water and dry out.
I’m thankful I was able to get the vacuum at the nice discounted price and will hopefully get another one for the second floor soon.

Overall, I have been pleasantly surprised by how great this robot vacuum is. It cleans very well and is super quiet. It does exceptionally well with cat hair and litter, and because of how quiet it is, it doesn’t scare my cat. I highly recommend this product.
