- It's hard to be surprised by The new Roomba Combo j7 Plus
Not long ago we talked about a new product that iRobot will be launching on October 4, and now the answer has been revealed - The new Roomba Combo j7 Plus! This is a vacuuming and mopping 2-in-1 robot, and frankly, such features really don't surprise consumers anymore. After we saw the pictures and videos of this robot, we had to feel once again that such a product is really very boring. From the looks of it, the biggest highlight of the device is the ability to lift the rag assembly by itself, which serves to avoid the carpet and keep it dry. iRobot officially considers this feature to be way ahead of the competition, but in fact it's not ahead by any stretch of the imagination. Check out the flagship models of your counterparts, check out the s7 MaxV from Roborock and the X1 Omni from Ecovacs. If iRobot insists that this feature is a huge experience improvement, then we can see why the company is now so far behind on its products. I hope that iRobot can really make some eye-catching features and products, which will soon be forgotten by the world if they remain in silence like this. techTongBo (also named: Nanjing TongBo / NJTB) is a Chinese company specializing in the manufacture and sales of vacuum cleaner accessories.

- How to clean a vacuum cleaner brush?
In order to use the vacuum cleaner better, you need to clean the brush frequently. If the dirt on the vacuum brush cannot be completely removed, it will still return to your floor or carpet surface. It may also cause the vacuum suction to drop and not run. And it is not effective in removing dirt. We all know that today's vacuum cleaners have two types of brushes, brush and rubber brush. So how should we clean it up? The cleaning of the rubber brush can refer to the previous cleaning process for the Roborock S7 brush. Clean brush Because the brush is inside the vacuum, we first cut off the power. Make sure it is completely powered off before proceeding to the next step. Next, use a screwdriver to unscrew the screws holding the baseplate. Most vacuum cleaners should have four screws to hold them in place. You can keep these screws in a safe position so you don't lose them while fiddling with the vacuum. Once the baseplate is removed, you can easily remove the roller brush. Usually one end will slide out first, and then you can pull the roller brush out of the belt. Be careful not to damage the belt, or you will have to replace the belt. When taking it off, pay attention to the direction of the roller brush, which will make it easy to put it back after cleaning. First remove the large pieces of debris or fluff on it by hand. Second, use scissors to cut the long hair attached to the surface sideways from the middle, so that the hair can be easily removed. Try a few more times until there is no hair on it. Make sure the bearing position is also clean. Second, remove the ends of the brush to remove any dust and debris hidden inside. Then re-cover. Cut hair with scissors Then soak the brush in soapy water and stir gently to better remove dirt and dust from the bristles. Rinse with water several times until the water is clear. Then wipe the surface with a dry rag until the water on it is completely dry. Now it's ready to be reassembled. You can use a wet wipe to remove any dust remaining on the case. Swipe the roller brush across the belt, then slide the end cap into the groove. Cover the baseplate and screw the four screws to finish. Summary Cleaning the brush is actually quite simple. If you have pets in your home or use the vacuum cleaner frequently, you need to check and clean the brush frequently, and if it is found to be damaged, it should be replaced in time. #vacuum cleaner#Roborock
- Do you need to buy a self-emptying vacuum cleaner?
Do you feel inconvenient because you need to empty the trash can of your robot vacuum cleaner? You will find that every time you clean up, your hands will get covered in dust and dirt that has been picked up from all over your home. Then self-emptying robot vacuums will save you from such a predicament. The automatic emptying system provides a resting place for the robot vacuum cleaner, which can charge the machine itself. It connects the robot to a series of vacuums that remove dirt and debris from the bin and place them in a larger bin. For example, the current Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra, ECOVACS DEEBOT X1 OMNI, iRobot Roomba S9 + and other vacuum cleaners all have self-emptying bases. ECOVACS DEEBOT X1 OMNI: it takes only 10 seconds to automatically empty the dustbin. Benefits of auto-emptying the base: With a self-emptying base you can use the vacuum more often because it empties the trash by itself without you needing to do it. Then you won't have to bother cleaning four or five times a week, and your home will still be clean. No contact with dust. Automatically empties the bag in the base without leaking anything. It is friendly to people with allergies, don't worry about allergies due to being close to the base station. There will be no dust and dirt on your hands after emptying. There is no need to clean the bin as often, and it can hold dirt for weeks or months. Disadvantages of auto-emptying the base: If there are advantages, there will definitely be disadvantages, but the advantages will outweigh the disadvantages. It's more expensive. Although more and more models now offer this base, the self-emptying base still adds a label to the vacuum cleaner. It also adds a fortune to the price. It will take up some space. While it will look impressive, its design is also a bit bulky. For example, the base footprint of the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra will be large, at 19.4 inches by 16.5 inches. You need to find a suitable position for it. Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra There will be some noise. While most vacuums are quiet enough, they still make a lot of noise when they automatically empty the base. But the emptying time is relatively short, so you don't have to worry too much. Is the self-emptying base worth it? Definitely worth it. If you have enough space and budget, it is a good choice. Of course, you should also think about whether the automatic emptying of the base will improve the performance of the robot. Is it worth buying it at a high price? Of course, the final decision is still up to you. #Vacuum cleaner#Roborock#Roomba#Ecovacs
- Causes of vacuum cleaner damage and how to prevent it
Vacuum cleaners are a very common smart home in life. They can keep your home clean. Over time, vacuum cleaners become more and more high-tech and intelligent. You paid a high price for it, so you should also know what can hurt it in your life. And how to avoid them from being harmed. Cause of injury Vacuuming hard objects We might find some rocks, screws, or coins on the floor, but none of us stopped to pick it up. Instead, we thought the vacuum cleaner would do a good job of getting over or sucking it away, but the vacuum cleaner is not a panacea. If the vacuum sucks them in, they may get stuck on the brush or in areas that are not easy to clean inside. These hard objects may cause damage to the inside of the vacuum cleaner and prevent it from continuing to operate. Water or any liquid Vacuum cleaners are electronic devices, and they are not used to absorb water and other liquids. So when you expose them to liquids, there is a risk of electric shock and damage to the vacuum cleaner. Your hands can also get messed up when you try to empty the vacuum. Cannot be placed in a humid environment If you leave it in a humid environment for a long time, the vacuum cleaner may short-circuit because there are many circuit components inside it. It will also be more dangerous when used. The motor is broken Do not use the vacuum cleaner for a long time or continuously, which will increase the temperature of the motor. It is also possible that the motor overheats because the brush is entangled in something and struggles to rotate. A full dust container or bag can also cause the motor to overheat. Preventive measures When you see large debris, food scraps, coins, or some screws on the ground, you should pick it up. Then vacuum your home. Avoid direct contact with water. There is now a wet and dry vacuum cleaner specially designed to collect water and other liquids. So you don't have to worry about electric shock and damage to the vacuum cleaner. Do not put the vacuum cleaner in a dark and damp place, try to put it in a drier place. Don't let the vacuum run too long, check and clean the vacuum often. If there are any damaged parts, they also need to be replaced in time. You can buy them cheaply on Amazon. Finally Maintaining your vacuum is easy, don't let your vacuum do things it shouldn't. Whether it's a regular or high-end model, it needs the same amount of maintenance. If you want it to work reliably for a long time, you need to clean it a lot. #vacuum cleaner
- Clean the vacuum cleaner hose
When cleaning the vacuum cleaner, have you ever paid attention to your vacuum cleaner hose? Yes, the vacuum hose also needs to be cleaned frequently, so as to ensure that the suction force of the vacuum cleaner is not affected. So do you know how to clean it? Clean Your Vacuum Cleaner Hose Previous articles have written about cleaning sharks and Dyson vacuums, which come with some cleaning hose content, this time I will take it out and talk about it alone. Cleaning steps: First remove the hose. You can stand the hose up or face the light to see if you can see a large blockage. If you can see it, push it out with a stick first. Next, rinse the outside and inside of the hose with warm water first. Then plug one end with the palm of your hand and put some water from the other end. Shake the hose gently to wash away any dust that has attached to the inside of the hose. Then pour out the water. Mix the vinegar and baking soda together, shake well and soak in a few wipes. Tuck the vinegar and baking soda soaked tissue into the hose. Gently push it with a stick, pushing it from one end to the other. Repeat a few more times until the tissue is slightly cleaner. If you still feel some dirt inside, you can pour the remaining vinegar and baking soda into the hose. Plug the ends with the palm of your hand and shake vigorously to eliminate odors and soften the tube. Finally rinse it again with lukewarm water. Then hang it vertically and let it dry completely. The cleaning process is very simple. If you don't clean it for a long time, it may cause the suction of the vacuum cleaner to drop, it will emit some strange smells, it may make noises when using the vacuum, etc. So how often do you clean your hose? If you vacuum frequently, you need to check your hose weekly to see if it needs cleaning. If you find it damaged or broken, it needs to be replaced as soon as possible. #vacuum cleaner#Dyson#Shark
- Cordless Vacuum vs Robot Vacuum :Which one to choose?
Cleaning the house is recognized as a hassle, and keeping the floors clean all the time is one of the worst things in life. If you have pets or children in your home, it's even harder. Fortunately, there are now some smart products that can help us clean. Such as cordless vacuums, robotic vacuums, upright vacuums, etc. Robots and cordless vacuums are popular for convenience. We have studied the difference between robots and upright vacuums before, so today let's take a look at the difference between robots and cordless vacuums. If you happen to need to buy a vacuum cleaner, hope this article can help you. Both are very suitable for life, and both have their own advantages and disadvantages. Cordless vacuum cleaner It looks like a broom, no regular power cord, small size and light weight. It comes with a rechargeable battery. It can clean very efficiently, stairs and some hidden corners can be cleaned. You can move it easily without worrying about wires getting stuck on furniture or table legs. Shark® Vertex® Pro Lightweight Cordless Stick Vacuum Advantages and disadvantages of cordless vacuum cleaners Advantages: It's easy to operate and lightweight. It can be cleaned in a small space without worrying about it getting stuck in furniture. It's portable because it doesn't have wires. It can clean stairs, furniture, curtains, car seats, and more. Disadvantages: Its suction is not strong enough to be used on carpets. Its dust collection container is relatively small, and you need to empty the dust collection box frequently. The battery life is short and not very friendly to people with allergies. Robot vacuum cleaner It is a self-working vacuum cleaner, it can also empty and wash rags, air-dry rags and more by itself. You can control it remotely through the APP, and it can clean the room even if you are not at home. It can also detect and avoid obstacles, remember the map of your home, and plan the cleaning path by itself. Although it is smart, it will also have some failures. For example, it will get stuck under furniture, keep cleaning an area, etc. Roomba® s9+ Self-Emptying Robot Vacuum Advantages and disadvantages of Robot vacuum cleaner Advantages: It can be remotely controlled and is relatively intelligent. Some high-end models can even automatically wash the rag and dry it automatically. Disadvantages: It takes too long to clean. It takes about 1-2 hours each time. It's easy to get stuck. Before you start cleaning, you want to make sure there are no big obstacles on the ground. Finally: If you don't have stairs in your home, it's easier to buy a robot vacuum. You can have more time to do your own thing and it will do the job on its own. If your house is small, a cordless vacuum cleaner is a great option. Its configuration allows it to flexibly clean your home. Which vacuum cleaner is better is up to you to judge. Both of them have their own strengths, and no one can replace the other. One machine cannot solve all problems. #Roomba#Shark#vacuum cleaner
- How Many Watts is a Good Vacuum Cleaner?
Watts are one of the factors to consider when buying a vacuum. So how many watts is the best vacuum? There is no particularly clear answer to this question. Generally speaking, the higher the wattage, the stronger the suction and the better the cleaning effect. So, if you have a vacuum with a high wattage, it will definitely work better than a vacuum with a low wattage. Inalsa Spruce 1200Watt Vacuum Cleaner When choosing wattage for your vacuum cleaner, factors you should consider include room furniture type, cleanliness, and more. What factors affect power? One: Type of floor. Hardwood boards require more force to collect dust. Two: the type of carpet. The fluff height of the carpet determines how much compression the fibers will undergo and how much heat is generated. Vacuum cleaners come in different wattages, do you know which one is better for you? Most vacuum cleaners on the market today have a power range of about 600-1400 watts. But it does not mean that high wattage and strong suction are suitable for your home. First, consider the size of your home. If you have pets and stairs in your home, a high wattage vacuum will suit you better. Second, your floor type. Low wattage vacuums are more carpet friendly, while high wattage vacuums are more floor friendly. Third, your needs. If the wattage is high, the suction force will be large, and the cleaning effect will be good. Fourth, your budget. Generally speaking, the natural price of high wattage will also be high. The energy consumption of the average household vacuum cleaner model is 1440 watts. But for most people, a 1000 watt vacuum is enough to clean your home. If your house is large or has a lot of thick carpets, then you may need a large wattage vacuum. Wattage is only one of the factors to consider when you choose to buy a vacuum. However, this factor is more important and you can take a good look at it. #Inalsa Spruce#Vacuum cleaner

Roomba and Dyson are popular vacuum cleaner brands on the market. Roomba is known for its robot vacuum cleaners, while Dyson is known for its Upright and canister models. To help you decide which brand or model to buy, let's compare Roomba and Dyson. Dyson VS Roomba Review Roomba The Roomba is a line of consumer-focused autonomous robotic vacuums sold by iRobot.

Buying a Roomba will cost you about 300-1000 US dollars. For example, the current Roomba s9 + is about 1000 US dollars. And the Roomba 675 is about 300 US dollars to get. The Dyson is more expensive, but its functions and performance will be more complete. Roomba® s9+ Self-Emptying Robot Vacuum Dyson's navigation will be better, the suction will be higher, and the wheels will be more durable. The Roomba's clean base would be better, as well as it has a HEPA filter. Finally: The Roomba will be a little cheaper than the Dyson, but they have different features. But they are roughly the same in popularity in the market. Whoever you choose can provide you with a great cleaning experience. If your budget is not a lot, then the Roomba will be more suitable for you. #Roomba#Dyson#Vacuum cleaner
- Clean the vacuum filter
We use vacuum cleaners to clean all parts of our home, removing dirt, dust and food scraps from carpets, floors, sofas, and cabinets. If you want to keep your vacuum clean all the time, you have to clean the filters. If the filter is not cleaned for a long time, dust and dirt will clog it. This results in a drop in suction and affects the performance of the vacuum cleaner. Keeping the filter free of clogging is one way to ensure the best performance of the vacuum cleaner. So how do you clean the filter? Foam filter If it's a foam filter, soak it in warm water and let it sit for a few minutes. Squeeze repeatedly to release any dirt. Wash a few more times until the water is clear. Then squeeze the water out and let it air dry for at least 24 hours. Dry and put it back in to reassemble the vacuum cleaner. Foam filter in shark vacuum cleaner Cartridge filter This filter is usually a round, wrinkled cylinder. Generally speaking, it is disposable. But if you clean it regularly, its life will be extended accordingly. It is also more convenient to clean. You can use it to gently tap the edge of the trash can to make it drop some dust. You can wash it in water to make it cleaner. Removing dust from the cartridge filter can improve the ability of air to pass through. HEPA filter If your vacuum has a HEPA filter, it must be the toughest working environment. It can capture 99.97% of dust particles, and the smallest dust is difficult to pass through. It is also not washable, it is made of fibers. When you find them dirty, you need to buy a new filter to replace it. There are some inexpensive alternatives on Amazon.

- How to vacuum stairs with an upright vacuum cleaner?
If your home has multiple floors, cleaning the stairs is a small problem. Everyone knows that vacuuming the stairs is not an easy task because you have to vacuum as you go. And don't leave out any nooks and crannies. If you plan to use a standing vacuum on the stairs, you need to be familiar with these tools. Dyson Ball Animal 3 Extra Effective use of accessories makes vacuuming easy. You'll need a crevice tool and a power brush accessory. The crevice tool is a slender rod that removes dust that accumulates in the corners and crevices of stairs. A power brush accessory can be used at the end. The vertical vacuum cleaner equipped with the crevice tool makes cleaning stairs easy and efficient. Before using these tools, go up the stairs to see if there are any larger pieces. If there is, it's best to pick it up first. It is best to vacuum from the top of the stairs so that any dust that falls along the way can be picked up by the vacuum cleaner on the last flight of stairs. Another reason is that it is easier to lift the vacuum cleaner from the stairs than to lift it up. It is best to clean two flights of stairs at a time, which is easier. Shark Navigator® Pet Upright Vacuum Using the crevice tool to clean the edges and corners will clear most of the dust; or you can pile the dust in the middle, which can be easily sucked away. Brush accessories are not necessary, and if you have pets at home, it is best to use them. Because it can easily find hair. For the middle platform of the two floors of the stairs, you can swipe back and forth a few times. Or change to a wider attachment, which can help you wipe a larger area at a time. About the place erected between the stairs and the stairs, you may need to change the angle of the tool slightly to effectively clean the place. It is best to walk from upstairs to downstairs, alternating vacuuming between the platform and the standing place. Shark® Vertex® Upright Vacuum Those who own multiple floors will know how hard it is to clean stairs. But if you can use the accessories well, then it will be slightly easier. Clean the stairs a little more, otherwise it will be more laborious to wait until the dust builds up. Having a lightweight upright vacuum also helps a lot. #Shark#Dyson#vacuum cleaner

- Bagged vs Bagless vacuum: Which should you buy?
When you're looking to add a vacuum to your home, it may seem simple. But when you start picking, there are a variety of options available to you. They vary widely in cleaning efficiency and price, and come in all shapes and sizes. If you have a low tolerance for dust, bagless and bagless vacuums are in front of you. Which one should you choose? Advantages and disadvantages of bagged vacuum cleaners Bag vacuums have been around for a long time and use replaceable bags to collect trash and dust. Once the bag is full, it can be easily removed and replaced. Miele bagged vacuum cleaner Advantages: It is friendly to people with allergies. Because the bag is sealed, any dust, debris and allergens are trapped in the bag and cannot escape. Bag vacuums usually come with a HEPA filter, which can capture at least 99.97% of 0.3 micron particles. Especially it is most effective in catching dust and pollen. It has less maintenance. Depending on the model, the vacuum can hold several pounds of dust. This means you don't need to change the bag as often. Second, the bags have built-in filters, so you don't need to clean the filters either. Bags are also easier to replace. Disadvantages: You need to spend money to buy a bag. Most vacuum cleaner bags are not reusable and need to be replaced. Different brands have different prices for replacement bags. When the bag is full, performance degrades. Even if the bag is not full, it may not be able to compare to the performance of an empty bag. If the model is discontinued, it is also possible that a replacement bag may not be purchased.

You can also watch the video tutorial on YouTube. Operation process Take a shark vacuum cleaner as an example. Remember to unplug the power cord before starting operation. When you remove the cover, you will see the roller brush and the belt next to the roller brush. If the belt is worn or broken, remove any debris you can see first. Then remove the roller brush, keeping it in a side orientation. Remove hair and other debris from the roller brush. Then remove the old belt from the groove. Remove the screws and remove the roller brush After removing, clean the brush roller chamber and the inside of the vacuum first to avoid dust or small particles remaining inside to damage the new belt. Keep away from all sharp objects before replacing the new belt. Install one end of the new belt on the motor shaft and then stretch it into the groove of the roller brush. The belt should be straight and not twisted in any way. The belt can be adjusted as needed to ensure it is installed correctly. Place one end of the belt in the slot next to the roller brush Install the end of the roller brush in the slot and rotate the roller brush a few times to secure the belt.

- Why does a vacuum cleaner smoke?
Almost everyone has a vacuum cleaner in their home and it has become an integral part of our lives. But if your vacuum starts to smoke, you need to know what's causing the problem and what to do about it. When this problem arises in life, some people may think of buying a new machine. However, the problems that cause the vacuum cleaner to smoke are very simple and can be solved by yourself. Possible reasons: Belt Mostly, it's because of a belt problem. When the motor is overworked, it heats up and usually burns out the belt, causing smoke. In addition, the belt can also smell of burning when worn or broken. So why does the belt break? That's because it may struggle to rotate when something heavy or a wire gets caught in the brush roller. This puts a lot of pressure on the belt, causing it to break. Brush If the brush is entangled with various pet hairs and long hair on the floor, it can easily cause blockages. If you don't clean it for a long time, it will use smoke or make some noise to remind you that it is wrong. Why does it smell like something is burning? Motor An overloaded motor can also overheat. If your vacuum cleaner has been used for a long time, it is tired now. So it will shut down by itself when it overheats. If the motor fails, there may be burnt plastic or wires. Solution: Once you see the vacuum start to smoke or smell burnt, turn off the power and unplug it as soon as possible. Check that the belt is in good condition. If it is found to be badly worn, then the belt needs to be replaced. Make sure it can continue to be used in the future. If the belt is ok, look to see if there is something on the brush. Brushes can affect the life of the belt, so turn the vacuum cleaner over as much as possible to check. If there is a problem with the motor, it is not easy for you to solve it yourself. You need to seek professional help. Finally: Vacuum cleaner smoke is a serious problem. You need to repair and maintain it properly. Check the vacuum cleaner belt, brush and other parts in time to keep it in good condition at all times. #vacuum cleaner#vacuum parts

A robot vacuum cleaner can help you clean your floors, but there are always many pieces of furniture at different heights in your home. It is likely that the vacuum cleaner will get stuck underneath while it is running. Why does the robot vacuum cleaner get stuck under furniture or elsewhere? If this problem occurs in your home, then there are many solutions. Robot stuck under the sofa When they are stuck under the furniture, you need to bend down and pull them out from under the furniture. Especially when they are in the innermost corner under the sofa, getting it out is a pain in the ass. There are ways to prevent this from happening. Use furniture risers The easiest and most practical way is to place furniture risers under the legs of the furniture. They are easy and inexpensive to purchase, and there are a variety of materials and sizes to choose from. Using it will leave some space under the furniture so that the vacuum cleaner can easily pass through and suck up the dust. Use of furniture risers Set no-go areas You can set furniture areas as off-limits through the app and it will not go to those areas for cleaning. Another way is to place a virtual wall under the furniture. This will also restrict the robot vacuum cleaner from entering dangerous areas. Physically, you can put an obstacle or cardboard between the furniture and the floor to make the robot change direction instead of trying to get in. Clearing larger obstacles on the ground If you have a lot of stuff on the floor, it's easy for the robot to get stuck. Clean up the space under the furniture every once in a while. Avoid screws, Lego and some sharp things that will appear. Using the bumper extender It is a tapered knob made of rubber (viewable on YouTube) that sticks to the front or top of the vacuum cleaner bumper. This extender will change direction by hitting furniture instead of going under it and getting stuck. Using the bumper extender Neatly arrange the wires Robot vacuums have sensors to guide them through obstacles. But they can't always get past the wires cluttering the floor.

- Can vacuum cleaners damage carpets?
We know that vacuums can damage floors under certain circumstances. If vacuuming is not done properly, can it also damage the carpet? Yes,it does damage carpets if used incorrectly or overused. So vacuum should be done properly. It is recommended to vacuum less than a few times a week to ensure that each time is an effective vacuuming. The following points should be considered when performing carpet cleaning. Moderate vacuuming There may be some people who do not vacuum their carpets for fear that the vacuum cleaner will harm the carpet, and this is not right either. Dust is also very harmful to carpets. If you don't vacuum, too much dust will build up and there will be a smell. Therefore, moderate vacuuming is going to protect the carpet. In order to protect the condition of carpet fibers, it is important to distinguish the material of the carpet and what kind of brush it is suitable for. If you use a brush on a wool carpet, then this will definitely damage the carpet. Protect the carpet Avoid excessive dirt on your carpet.

Therefore, be sure to read the user manual well before using it. Vacuum about two to three times a week, but also pay more attention to keep the carpet clean. #shark#vacuum cleaner
- iRobot bids farewell to the past 20 years and opens a new future
iRobot, the famous robot vacuum cleaner manufacturer, recently posted 2 tweets on its official Twitter account saying that the company started a revolution 20 years ago and now the revolution will continue and mentioning a date of October 4, 2022. Maybe they are going to launch a new revolutionary product on this date? We'll see. It is a well-known fact that the Roomba line of products from iRobot is synonymous with sweeping robots, which once ruled the field and made their way into millions of homes with their outstanding performance. These Roomba's have conquered many home users by exceeding expectations. However, nowadays, Roomba seems to be showing a bit of lack of aggressiveness in the past few years and is being overtaken or even left far behind by some Chinese brands. These Chinese brands may have become the first choice of many floor cleaning robot fans, such as Roborock, Ecovacs and Dreame, among others. Why are these Chinese robot vacuum cleaners' brands succeeding and gradually overtaking iRobot in the market? I don't think this can be summed up in a few words, but at least one thing is clear: iRobot is not so advanced and not so cool anymore. Take a look at iRobot's flagship model, which has always appeared as a catch-up player in the market, even as many features are now completely behind their Chinese competitors in the same class. Chinese brands of vacuum cleaner robots, in addition to being more cost-effective, always give consumers some surprises in terms of product features. We recognize that iRobot is a company whose products were once brilliant, but there's no denying that they're not as good anymore, and they've probably been in their comfort zone for too long. Not long ago, e-commerce giant Amazon acquired the company iRobot, and we also know that Amazon wants a piece of the pie in the smart home field, so the intention of acquiring iRobot seems to be a good guess, and I hope that after Amazon's acquisition, iRobot can launch some eye-catching products. More competition is the best outcome for consumers, who can buy better products for less money, so let's look forward to iRobot on October 4th. techTongBo is a Chinese company specializing in the manufacture and sales of vacuum cleaner accessories. We offer replacement accessories for the global market that are compatible with mainstream vacuum cleaner brands and have stronger price advantages.

- Why do vacuum cleaners lose suction?
When your vacuum cleaner suction is not as good as it used to be, it is expensive to choose to replace it with a new machine. It is very common for the suction to decrease, and many vacuum cleaners face this problem. But there are some ways to fix the suction of the vacuum cleaner, let's find out today. vacuum cleaner suction First of all, we need to understand the reason why the vacuum cleaner loses suction. Dust container is full When the container is full, the suction will decrease with it. For those vacuums with low dust collection capacity, it will fill up quickly. For bagless models, you can empty the cup after each sweep. If you wait for it to be full to clean, then its suction will plummet. Hose is clogged If there is a large clump of hair in the hose, the machine will definitely lose suction. There are also ways when you are not good at cleaning the blockage. You can choose to find a long stick to shove in one end of the hose and poke the blockage out the other end. If you choose this method, you will need to do it next to the trash can as a cloud of dust may appear. Something tangled on the brush If the hair gets tangled on it, it loses its ability to clean, so the suction will decrease with it. It could also be that the floor is too high for the vacuum cleaner. Its brush doesn't work well. Blocked filter Blocked filter is one of the reasons for the drop in suction. If there is a lot of dust or debris on the filter, suction will not perform well when it is dirty. Not cleaning the filter will also affect the suction Another possibility is that because the air has escaped from the hose or other places, it is not a confined space anymore. You need to check if the hose is broken or if there are holes in the dust collection container. If you find that the hose is broken, you can fill it with tape. If the rupture area is relatively large, just buy a new one on Amazon. So how should the suction be restored? Empty the trash bags first. Avoid too much trash accumulating in them. You also need to change the filters regularly to maintain their suction. The suction will increase significantly after cleaning or replacing. Find and remove the blockage to restore the suction to its original state. #Vacuum cleaner#vacuum parts

But when there is a loud noise, it means that there is something wrong. For example, this Roborock S5 MaxV seen from the Roborock community makes an inhaling sound when cleaning. At this time, you need to pay more attention to it to see what is wrong and how to correct it. makes noise when it cleans There are many factors that can cause a vacuum cleaner to make noise. They have powerful motors that allow high-speed airflow through the machine quickly. Noise is also created by the high-speed airflow that sucks dust during operation. Secondly, some reasons can also be found in their design. They all have metal blades that produce sound when they rotate rapidly. Motors are also made of metal and also produce some noise when they operate. Fan The fan is also very important to the vacuum cleaner. If the fan is broken, it may also make noise, then the vacuum cleaner will start to heat up. When the vacuum is running, dust will accumulate on the fan, which can easily break the fan. The fan cannot be repaired, you can only buy a new one to replace. Brush If there are tangles of hair and scraps on the brush, this can also make the brush make noise as it spins. This makes it necessary to always check the brush for tangles that are causing it to get stuck and clean it up. If it still makes noise after cleaning, it means a new brush is needed to replace it. Hair tangled in the brush makes noise Filter Over time, some dust and small debris may store on the filter of the vacuum cleaner. If they plug the filter, it will not allow air to pass through well and create noise. The more dust, the more noise will be. And this will also make it less suction. Belt Another possibility is that your vacuum needs a complete cleanup. If there is debris under the belt, the belt may wear out. It may not be broken, but it will slide a lot over time. Then it makes some noise, and you need to buy a new belt to replace it. There are a lot of things you can do to fix this before buying a replacement. Always check and clean the internal parts of the vacuum cleaner, such as filters, brushes, fans, etc. See if the noise is made because it is blocked or broken. Clean up in time and replace damaged parts in time. This ensures that the air passes through the vacuum well. #Roborock#Vacuum cleaner#Vacuum parts

- What is difference between canister or upright vacuum cleaner?
Choosing the right vacuum cleaner is important for every home. Which is better, a canister vacuum or an upright vacuum? Has become a long-standing topic. Both are common, which one to choose? If you're having a hard time choosing between the two, read this article together. Although there are many new vacuum cleaners on the market today, canister and upright are still one of the collections created by many top vacuum brands. Examples include Hoover, Miele, Dyson and Shark. They all have a range of modern canister and upright vacuums. The previous article also described their useful life. Canister vacuum cleaners, the vacuum nozzle is attached to the end of the wand and then to the body via a hose. This body contains the engine, filter and dust bag. Shark Canister Vacuum cleaner Advantages: It has great operability. Because it's a hose, it cleans stairs or blinds etc. well. It also goes to a lot of places that a stand-up vacuum can't. You just need to move the wand, not the whole vacuum. And the power cord usually disappears into the canister vacuum's case, making things neater. Also, it is very quiet. If you have small children at home and are sensitive to sound, then canister is a good choice. Because it only works at 60-65 decibels. Canister vacuums generally have powerful motors for better suction and cleaning power. You can also choose between bagless cans and bagged models. It is capable of accommodating high-efficiency filtration systems built into or on canister, especially those including HEPA filters. Such as the Miele complete C3 series, with a HEPA air cleaning system, it can effectively prevent particles from escaping. One of the Miele C3 series Disadvantages: Its design is bulky and requires a lot of space to place it. If there are many nooks and crannies, you also need to bend over to vacuum, which can make your back hurt. Upright Vacuum Cleaners: Contains an electric brush head, dust container, handle and flexible plastic hose attachment. Shark Upright Vacuum Cleaner Advantages: Upright vacuums can be well placed and stored anywhere there is space. They are bagless, which makes them easier to clean and empty after sweeping. Its brush is electric. For carpet cleaning efficiency will become very high. Disadvantages: Compared to the Canister, it's a little bit louder. The operating frequency is probably higher than 70 decibels. It can't reach all the nooks and crannies. It's hard for it to get into tight spaces. It's also not suitable for cleaning stairs and it's also relatively heavy. Summary: When choosing canister or upright vacuum cleaners, you need to think about where you want to put it. Another thing is that you need to consider the layout of your home, whether there are any stairs that need to be cleaned. In the end, when choosing between the two, it is still up to you. Your own needs prevail. #Shark#Hoover#Miele#Dyson#vacuum cleaner

- Broom VS Vacuum: Which is the Best?
Brooms and vacuums are two common cleaning tools. Most homes are filled with smart homes, and vacuum cleaners are the most common one. But some people still use the most primitive tool, a broom. Although they can both effectively clean dust, their characteristics are very different. Brooms are easier to use and store. They are better for cleaning messy areas, but it doesn't sweep away all the dust. Vacuum cleaners can get into tight spaces where brooms can't. But they may not be easy to operation. It's easy for things to stick to the broom Broom: When sweeping with a broom, it is easy to sweep away large tracts of rubbish or scraps of paper. But there will be fine dust floating in the air and entering the gaps in the wall or floor. If you mop the floor as soon as you finish sweeping, the water will follow the gaps into the floor and form some stains. That's why the floor is still dirty after mopping. If your pet loves to shed hair, the hair will stick to the broom when cleaning. At this point you need to clean it off by hand. Vacuum cleaner: A vacuum cleaner, on the other hand, sucks dirt out from under the floor and it will make you feel at ease. For carpets, a vacuum cleaner also works better than a broom. On the other hand, if there is water or other liquids on the floor, a vacuum cleaner will clean it well. Today's vacuums can even wash and air dry rags automatically, completely without your hands. For example Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra and Ecovacs DEEBOT X1 OMNI. Sucks dust well Floor For hard floors, a vacuum cleaner is also more convenient to use than a broom. If you want to use a broom to clean the floor, you have to choose a broom with soft bristles. Otherwise, hard bristles will damage the floor. And those fine particles are more likely to get into the gaps in the floor. This makes brooms an inefficient way to clean floors. And a vacuum cleaner can replace a broom to clean hard floors. Space When making your choice, you still have to consider where do you want to clean with it? If you're cleaning a large space like the living room or kitchen, a vacuum cleaner might be a good choice. But if you're cleaning a small space like the bathroom, a broom is easy to handle. Large space is suitable for robots Price Price is also something to consider. Broom may be cheap, but it may not clean very well. A vacuum cleaner is more expensive, but it cleans better. Other If your home has a lot of stairs, maybe a broom is also a good choice. And the broom doesn't need any repairs, and you don't need to spend any money other than buying it. Summary: Although each has its own characteristics. But in general, a vacuum cleaner has the advantage. It will be clean and save time and effort. If you want your floors to be really clean, buy a vacuum. #Vacuum robot

- How does Robot Vacuum Cleaner Navigate?
Today's vacuums can vacuum, sweep and mop your home. At the same time avoid hitting things and falling down stairs. So how does a robot vacuum cleaner navigate? Robotic vacuums use advanced vacuum navigation systems. It can map your home and store that information. Types of Surveying and Mapping Camera-based mapping The robot uses an onboard camera to photograph the entire room, marking the location and the overall layout of the room. But it can't work in a dark environment. Surveying and mapping based on LiDAR Use this type of mapping to measure the distance between yourself and objects in your path and then create an accurate map of the environment. It passes in a straight line and cannot move randomly. For example: Roborock S7 MaxV, which utilizes LiDAR navigation to create maps accurately on the first run. It works efficiently in the dark. roborock s7 maxv lidar navigate Gyroscope or accelerometer mapping It is not possible to create precise maps, use gyroscopes or accelerometer sensors to measure the distance and direction of objects around the house. Sensors play an important role in vacuum cleaners Robotic vacuums use map-forming routes for sweeping, using sensors to detect road conditions while moving. Robot vacuum cleaner navigate are using various types of sensors to measure the world around them. Most brands have their own proprietary navigation software, but each uses multiple sensors to aid in driving. Cliff sensor, usually by reflecting infrared rays on the floor. The object then sends a signal back to the receiver in the vacuum cleaner. If the vacuum cleaner doesn't receive the signal coming back, he will change course. If it encounters a staircase, the cliff sensor prevents it from falling down the stairs. Cliff sensor on vacuum cleaner The name of the obstacle sensor also reveals its role: when cleaning a room, both furniture and things on the ground become obstacles. If the robot vacuum hits something (such as the corner of a table or a wall), the sensor is triggered. Wall sensors that use infrared light to detect walls and then clean them along the borders. The robot uses this effectively to prevent itself from hitting the wall. The combination of these sensors allows it to know its surroundings. What things it will hit, how to avoid obstacles, and where it might fall. This is the most basic thing, and only by knowing this can you navigate well. #Vacuum robot #robovac

- Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra vs iRobot Roomba s9 + Which is better?
If you're looking to buy a vacuum cleaner, you're likely to see Roborock and Roomba. They have a range of devices on the market, and it's hard to decide who to buy. So what's the difference between the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra vs iRobot Roomba s9+? (left) Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra vs iRobot Roomba s9+ (right) Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra vs iRobot Roomba s9+, S7 MaxV Ultra's strengths are: Navigation The S7 MaxV Ultra is equipped with a combination of LiDAR laser technology, a 3D camera and an RGB camera. Accurate accuracy can be provided to map, optimal cleaning routes can be designed, and obstacles can be detected even at night. The iRobot Roomba s9+ is equipped with an advanced navigation system – VSLAM. You can accurately map your house. Suction and running The S7 MaxV Ultra has a suction power of up to 5100Pa(Its suction power is also higher than that of the ECOVACS DEEBOT X1 OMNI), and the Roomba S9+ has a suction force of 2200Pa. The S7 MaxV Ultra has a battery life of up to 180 minutes, while the Roomba s9+ has only 120 minutes. Longer battery life means the S7 MaxV Ultra must reduce the frequency of returning to the charging station, making it take longer to clean once. S7 MaxV Ultra has 5100Pa suction power Mopping the floor The S7 MaxV Ultra is capable of vacuuming and mopping the floor at the same time, saving time and money. In addition, it is based on VibraRise technology, which enables the robot to reach a speed of 3,000 vibrations per minute. Object recognition The S7 MaxV Ultra has Reactive AI 2.0. A wider range of objects can be identified, such as pets, footwear, cables, etc. It can identify each obstacle and react differently to each obstacle. Self-emptying base They all have self-emptying bases, but they are very different. In addition to the bin, the S7 MaxV Ultra has an automatic water tank and mop cleaning bin than the Roomba S9+. The advantages of the Roomba s9+ are: Map storage Both create interactive and customizable maps. Roomba can store 10 different maps compared to its competitors, while Roborock can only store 4. Detects large areas of dirt Another advantage of the Roomba s9+ is the DirtDetect sensor, which can detect the areas with the most dirt so that the robot can strengthen cleaning in these areas. Roomba s9+ has Dirt Detect sensor What is the best robot vacuum cleaner? The official price of the S7 MaxV Ultra is $1399.99 and the Roomba s9+ is $999.99. There are still some differences in price. But I think the S7 MaxV Ultra is a more advanced robot that is ahead of the Roomba in most respects. I prefer the precision and innovation of the S7 MaxV Ultra, just a bit expensive on the price. The main thing is to look at your own needs and budget. #Roborock#iRobot Roomba#robovac
- Ecovacs Deebot X1 OMNI and X1 Turbo:which is better for you?
Ecovacs is one of the well-known brands of sweeping robots. Among the X1 series of sweeping machines released are the Ecovacs Deebot X1 OMNI and X1 Turbo and X1 Plus. The X1 OMNI and X1 TURBO are the best in the X1 series, but they are similar. So which is the better option for users? Design and runtime In terms of design, Deebot X1 OMNI and X1 Turbo are very low-key appearances. Their height makes it easy for them to navigate through narrow areas. In terms of base stations, if you want to save space, the X1 TURBO will have an advantage because it has a smaller base station. They have the same model of lithium-ion battery and the same battery capacity (5200mAh). It also charges automatically and restores cleaning, with charging times of 6.5 hours. Ecovacs Deebot X1 OMNI and X1 Turbo Cleanliness and suction aspects Both are two-in-one sweeping robots and are suitable for all types of flooring, pet-friendly families. The suction force is 5000Pa, four-stage deep cleaning system. Flour, cat litter, pet hair, etc. on the ground can be removed without leaving stubborn stains. Navigation and mapping They have the same AIVI 3D and TrueMapping 2.0 obstacle detection and mapping, and also utilize AI calculations to make navigation accurate. Obstacles such as hanging cables, socks, etc. You can know the location of obstacles and avoid them. 3 ultra-accurate 3D maps can be created. Mop performance Both have the same mopping performance, dry and wet. You can also set a mop-free zone on the application. The difference between automatic cleaning of the base Ecovacs Deebot X1 OMNI and X1 TURBO both have two large tanks (one for clean water and one for dirty water collected by mops). After cleaning, X1 OMNI quickly drys the mat with hot air to prevent bacteria and odors. The X1 OMNI station comes with an automatic self-emptying function, which will do the heavy emptying work for you. After the X1 TURBO is cleaned, it is blown dry with cold air. It doesn't have the ability to automatically empty the trash, so you have to manually empty it every day. The Deebot X1 OMNI has Auto-empty At last: What is the most suitable option? Both vacuum cleaners offer the same functionality, but the X1 TURBO lacks a self-emptying function. If you don't mind emptying the trash yourself, you might prefer the Ecovacs Deebot X1 Turbo because it offers features similar to the X1 OMNI at a more affordable price. #Ecovacs#vacuum robot
- How does it do with rugs that have fringe?
We have witnessed a lot of vacuum cleaners in navigation and obstacle avoidance. But for users, carpets are one of the focuses of choosing a vacuum cleaner. For fringed carpets, their edges are long and they can easily get stuck and wrap around the brush roller. So, how do vacuum cleaners handle edge carpets? Originated from the Roborock community Can the vacuum cleaners handle edge carpets? This depends on the length of the edge with your carpet. If the edges of the carpet are long, then the vacuum cleaner cannot handle it. It may tangle or get stuck. However, if the edges are short, your vacuum cleaner may be able to handle it. When using a vacuum cleaner, if the edges are tangle in the machine, it may cause the brush to break. Then you need to buy the brush again. It will also cause some damage to the edges of the carpet to a greater or lesser extent. If your fringed rug has been around for a long time and you can't throw it away. Then you can also consider the following solutions. Solution People are good at being flexible and have successfully made their vacuum cleaners clean fringed carpets. The simplest trick is that you can fold the tassels under the carpet before cleaning so that they are under the carpet. You can also cut off the tassels if you wish. This way you don't have to worry about the machine getting stuck or breaking the carpet. Buy some double-sided tape or carpet tape to stick tassels to the floor. Or for example: tesa® 51960, which has strong adhesion and is largely residue-free. But inevitably, the washed carpets will require you to stick to them again. Carpet tape:tesa® 51960 If your vacuum cleaner is a high-end model, you can set a virtual wall or exclusion zone on the app. However, this only applies if your rug has only tassels on both sides. If your robot doesn't have an app that enables forbidden zones or virtual walls, you can do this by folding the tassel under the carpet. However, if you want to set up a cleaning plan and you are not at home, then this method does not work. If you have enough money to budget, then you can also choose to buy a vacuum cleaner that suits this type of carpet. For example, iRobot Roomba brand. Summary: Even if the quality of the vacuum cleaner is high, there is always a risk that the edges will get stuck. When you want to use a vacuum cleaner to clean carpets with edges, you still want to take some precautions. This is for your own peace of mind and to protect your carpet and vacuum cleaner from any damage. #robovac#vacuum cleaners#irobot roomba
- ECOVACS DEEBOT T9 AIVI: Is 2022 Still Strong?
The technological progress of sweeping robots is not as fast as other electronic products. Although the new model adds new features, the old model is still competitive. The ECOVACS Deebot T9 AIVI, released at the end of October 2021, is still selling well thanks to the AeroForce rubber double brush, AIVI 2.0 camera obstacle detection and OZMO Pro 2.0 wipe capability. Special roller technology At the bottom we can see that there are two rotating edge brushes. Secondly, the AeroForce rubber double brush will attract attention. This is made up of two rubber brushes that rotate in opposite directions for better pickup of dirt. For pet owners, rubber brushes should be a big advantage, because they will not tangle the hair, which can avoid tedious cleaning in the later stages. Two side brushes and AeroForce rubber double brush Various sensor navigation Optimized navigation with lidar and obstacle detection enables the ECOVACS DEEBOT T9 AIVI to accurately provide 3D mapping. The camera on the front detects obstacles, even flat objects, and can detect and by pass them. After cleaning, you can also see obstacles in the map. It also doesn't fall off the stairs because there are sensors at the bottom for obstacle detection and also to prevent falls. Ecovacs offers a variety of sensor additions that will still be worth a look in 2022. Good suction effect The maximum suction force of the T9 AIVI is 3000 Pa, which is 100% higher than the T8 AIVI. Thanks to the suction power of 3000 Pa, it sucks away large crumbs that fall to the ground very well. Even in the first stage of four different strengths of suction, sucking away pet hair, dust or even cat litter is not a problem. It also offers automatic carpet detection, which automatically increases the suction level as soon as it leaves the hard floor onto the carpet. The bad thing is that the dust collector has a capacity of only 300ml. Carpets can be detected automatically On the T9 AIVI, there is Ozmo Pro wiping technology. Roborock and Xiaomi also use the technology. It can lift the wiper unit, so it is also possible to drive on the carpet. Unfortunately, its water tank is only 180ml. 3D map The 3D map is available after a secondary auto-sweep. You can see the exact floor plan of the home, it also identifies some of the furniture. If you don't recognize everything correctly, you can also edit to add new furniture. This is mainly used for special cleaning of specific furniture, such as under a sofa. 3D map Summary: The ECOVACS DEEBOT T9 AIVI is arguably one of the best vacuum robots on the market today. Whether it is vacuuming or wiping, its cleaning effect is better. In terms of price, it's about half what it was a year ago. However, the capacity of the dust collection tank and water tank is a bit small, enough to buy a suction station can solve the dust box problem. If you think it's right for you in every way, you can choose to buy it. #Ecovacs#Roborock#Xiaomi#vacuum robot
