obode Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo
This self-emptying robot vacuum-mop combo, the obode A8+, comes with a BLDC motor and electric water tank. With the A8+, you do not have to worry about emptying the dustbin for up to 30 days. Its 19,000 RPM motor empties dirt into a hygienically sealed dust bag. After a month, you can replace the bag yourself. Dust and allergens are also captured. The A8+ prides itself as a pet hair magnet.
Superior mapping
Thanks to LiDAR navigation and line laser sensor processing, the A8+ can detect its own location even in dark conditions, eliminating bumps and random cleaning paths while saving time and energy. There are a whopping 30+ sensors. There are anti-collision and anti-falling functionalities, and edge cleaning is possible too.
Up to three floor maps can be saved with the A8+, and you can customize them according to your needs. Every time you change floors, you do not need to go through the mapping process each time.
Auto-recharging
When cleaning is done, usually after approximately 250 square meters of coverage, the A8+ redocks to recharge. On the way to the dock, the mop is lifted to avoid leaving a wet streak. Speaking of mopping…
Mopping & vacuuming details
Through intelligent mop lifting, the A8+ knows where and when to lift up its back plate which holds the mop. The lift height is 10 mm, and it is especially useful to avoid getting carpets wet, but in vacuuming mode, suction is boosted when encountering carpets.
We would not recommend the A8+ on rugs as it may try to suck up the rug hairs. Otherwise, this robot vacuum can work on surfaces from tiles to vinyl. Also, 20 mm thresholds can be crossed. When docked, the A8+ lifts up the mop pad to air dry it, preventing odor.
Smart control
You can switch between maps on the obode Life App. You can also set a no-go zone for sensitive areas, select a certain room to be cleaned, select a specific zone to be cleaned, and activate do-not-disturb mode.
The water flow levels you can choose from through the app include:
- Dry
- Low
- Standard
- High
As for the suction power levels:
- Quiet
- Balanced
- Turbo
- Max
Voice control is achievable through Alexa and Assistant too.
Conclusion
The obode A8+ will go down in the hall of fame as one of the best self-emptying robot vacuum-mops out there!
