The AltaRobot B250 robot vacuum cleaner model was developed by the manufacturer for dry cleaning of premises and wet wiping of the floor. Equipped with a powerful processor and brushless motor, it allows it to efficiently clean any surface. In the review, we will get acquainted with the capabilities of the robot and its technical potential.
Appearance
The vacuum cleaner has a round shape with a diameter of 34 cm. Its height is 8.5 cm. It weighs 3 kg. The body is plastic in white and silver color. On the top panel there is a dust collector cover, to open which there is a button. On the side surface there is a soft rubberized bumper that protects the device from collisions with obstacles. There are also built-in sensors that control the precise movement of the device. On the bottom of the device you can see:
- 2 wheels on the sides;
- one small swivel front wheel;
- 2 side brushes;
- suction hole;
- battery compartment;
- contacts for installation on the base;
- the place of attachment of the washing napkin.
Specifications
The technical parameters of the robot are as follows:
- cleaning area on one charge: up to 80 sq. m;
- dust collector: cyclone filter;
- dust compartment capacity: 500 ml;
- operating modes: 5;
- there is a timer;
- control: remote control;
- power: 50 W;
- stationing: automatic;
- there are sound alerts;
- noise: 45 dB.
The robot is equipped with a 2000 mAh Ni-MH battery, which provides autonomous operation for 120 minutes.
Functionality
Good suction power for the AltaRobot B250 device is provided by a brushless motor that operates with low power consumption, but develops up to 1500 rpm. In the bin, a double filtration process takes place with the help of a fine filter and HEPA, which do not let the smallest dust particles and all kinds of allergens back into the room. The device has the following modes:
- auto;
- local;
- cleaning around the perimeter;
- zigzag;
- wet wiping the floor.
To activate the last function, a special napkin, previously moistened with water, is fixed to the bottom of the device. Automatic wetting is not provided. It can also be used as a floor polisher, for which you do not need to wet the napkin.
The control is carried out remotely by the remote control. It also allows you to select the mode, day and time of the next cleaning with automatic activation. The device informs about a decrease in the charge level, a jam, or a problem that has occurred with sound messages.
The built-in processor allows the device to assess the room, to draw up a favorable trajectory of movement. It takes into account data from sensors and sensors about the presence of obstacles and possible height differences. A virtual wall is used to shield areas that are dangerous for the vacuum cleaner.
Equipment
The delivery set contains:
- robot;
- charging base;
- power adapter;
- remote control;
- wet wipe nozzle;
- washing napkin;
- 2 side brushes;
- two additional filters;
- virtual wall;
- accessories for vacuum cleaner care;
- instruction.
Advantages and disadvantages
The main advantages of the cleaner:
- design;
- small size, providing good maneuverability and cross-country ability;
- powerful engine with energy saving;
- sound alerts;
- possibility to choose the time and day of work;
- good orientation in space due to sensors;
- virtual wall restricting entry to some places;
- quiet work.
No significant flaws in the operation of the robot vacuum cleaner were found. Only the lack of automatic water supply to the napkin is not pleasant to users. It must be periodically removed and moistened, which slows down automatic floor wiping. There is no function for building a room map or other features inherent in more expensive models. Many consider the type of battery to be a disadvantage, which has a small resource. The cost of the robot is 12 thousand rubles. A sufficient number of modes and good functionality provide effective dry cleaning of premises and performance of the polisher's work.
