Bissell SpinWave Pet Robot US

Product Information

And, while the vacuum does struggle with thicker rugs, it can handle more typical carpet and rug surfaces. Other robots that mop with just water and a motionless pad tend to leave streaks and take a couple runs to get your floors shiny. While you may want this for a set-it-and-forget-it type of cleaning experience, it’s not quite there. Includes: Two Tank Cleaning System, Microfiber Mop Pads, replacement filters and edge cleaning brushes, and trial-size Multi-Surface Formula. Deciding to add one to your home is a big decision, and there are several different variables to consider before picking one up.

Just download the Bissell Connect app (available for Android and iOS) and sign in or create a new account. It will get stuck on thick rugs or bundles of cables as well as things with thin parts like a cat toy. The app will walk you through getting your bot connected to Wi-Fi and that took me just a couple of minutes.While I won’t spend much time on the other tabs as they’re straight forward and much easier to navigate, the app includes a tab for scheduling cleanings, one to see your cleaning history, as well as a maintenance tab that shows the various parts of the vacuum and their level of functionality. The mop attachment has a dustbin that is significantly smaller, but it still can collect dust and dirt before it runs over it with a mop. The SpinWave R5 has dual spinning mopping pads and the ability to add cleanser to the mopping tank, while the vacuum suction is rated at 2,000Pa.

But, it’s held back by the fact that it tends to get stuck on the kind of obstacles it should go around and its app’s learning curve.This robot cleaner comes with attachments for both mopping and vacuuming, and it outperformed the competition in testing, delivering a powerful scrubbing action that made quick work of all sorts of messy stains.

The only other sensors are a bottom-facing sensor to prevent driving off ledges, and a soft surface avoidance sensor that prevents the robot from driving up onto carpets and rugs while mopping. If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly option and only have a small area that needs regular cleaning, the iRobot Braava Jet is another worthwhile contender. Yet, if you have a lot of space that needs to be cleaned, especially with pets around, and want to keep from having to break out the handheld vacuum every other day, the Bissell SpinWave R5 will do a great job.When used in wet mopping mode, the mop pads and BISSELL cleaning solution work together to scrub floors clean.

It’s not the greatest at picking up substantial floor spills or debris and its carpet cleaning abilities are barely adequate. Standard shipments to Alaska, Hawaii, Guam, Puerto Rico, American Samoa and Virgin Islands will arrive within 15 business days. Whereas most robot mops simply push a flat mop pad across the floor, the Bissell SpinWave features . Here's a look at how often you should replace your robot vacuum, as well as things you can do to make it last longer.When testing with the app, I made sure to use it for general cleaning as well as using it for only certain areas as well as making certain areas off limits. If you're looking for the best model out there, our top pick is the Bissell SpinWave 2-in-1-Robot Mop, which wowed us with its cleaning performance during our hands-on testing. I earned a BS in journalism from West Virginia University, and started my career writing for newspapers in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. The setup instructions recommend setting the charging station up in an area with 40 inches of clearance on each side, but I set it up under a chair with less than four inches on each side and the vacuum still found the charger flawlessly.
