FCC filings show possible new Dyson robot vacuum

Budget can also be a big factor when selecting your perfect vacuum. Both Roomba and Dyson are very high-end vacuums, compared to models from other companies on the market. But that being said, it doesn’t mean you can’t snag a deal here or there. The Dyson V7, V8, and V10 all captured between % of debris on average for the high and low pile carpet test. Dyson tends to have the better suction required for a complete clean on carpeted floors. Dyson has since released the “Fluffy” soft roller cleaning head which does a much better job of cleaning these particular messes.

Barely a trace of the material remained after the machine vacuumed midpile carpeting and hardwood floors. The Hero left some strands visible when traveling across our low-pile test carpet. Tineco A11 Hero lightweight vacuum has got a high-performance battery that delivers irobot vacuum cleaner up to 40 minutes of uninterrupted run time. It tends to be the more expensive models that have room-mapping. With 68% of Britons saying they aren’t keen on or actively dislike vacuum cleaning, it’s no wonder many of us are intrigued by the idea of robot vacuum cleaners.

Other robotic vacuums operate on an efficient, hug-the-walls, cleaning-inwards spiral pattern. The Heurist has been designed as a ‘learning’ robot which means that it does not take the simplest route, because it is constantly recalculating it’s distance from walls and dyson robot vacuum furniture. So rather than, say, following a wall for two metres, it will stop and start while it scans the wall every few seconds. This resulted in it taking 50 minutes to map and 35 minutes to clean our test room, a poor result compared to other robot vacuums.

Although we didn’t have a test for it, pet hair would be the one debris it may struggle with, simply because it uses the bristle brushroll instead of the rubberized brushroll. This is just something you may want to keep in mind if you have long-haired pets (or humans) in your household. The 890 cleans using central dual rubberized brushrolls to agitate and suck up debris, and a spinning side brush, which helps address the corners and edges.

The 360 Eye does not look anything quite anything the current crop of robot vacuums. From the looks alone, it looks nothing like any of the current robotic vacuums in the market that utilize a round puck shape that usually stands around between 2.9 and 3.5 inches tall. Today at the International Conference on Robotics and Automation in Philadelphia, Dyson revealed “secret robot prototypes” that are part of broader research it’s managed to keep a tight lid on thus far. The reveal included some shots of a robot arm that looks fairly similar to smaller industrial models from companies like ABB. I have my 360 Heurist cleaning hard flooring and a carpeted area and it performs really well on both.
