TikomRobot Vacuum and Mop Combo 2 in 1, 4500Pa Strong Suction, G8000 Pro Robotic Vacuum Cleaner, 150mins Max, Wi-Fi, Self-Charging, Good for Carpet, Hard Floor

I bought this when we moved into our 2200 square foot home and we have 2 dogs and 3 cats. Let me tell you best piece of equipment to help with our cleaning duties. Picks up hair, pet hair and what ever is on the floor but easy enough if it’s something that shouldn’t be there it will let you know . We can’t live without this piece of cleaning tool. Since then I have purchased 2 as wedding gifts and will continue to do so. If I could buy one for everyone in the world I would. I feel this would make any woman, mom and or who ever life’s easier. They do say work smarter not harder. Vacuum quality is awesome worth every cent.

Was a good purchase for me.I have a house that is only 2 rooms; the upstars ~ 750 ft sq, carpet and the downstairs which is ~ 800 ft sq, carpet & kitchen and bathroom vinyl floors. Unit picks up cat litter and most cat hair from both carpet and vinyl. I run it without the app and it finds it's way around pretty good.I always remove any kitchen chairs and anything that might trap the unit (toy mousers, power cords etc.). I have seen it get stuck under a chair for quite a while. You will learn from experience what might trap the unit. The magnet strip keeps it from falling down the stairs pretty well.I run the unit on a higher vacuum setting than factory setting. Cleans better, but takes more battery power. Will clean the downstairs making multiple passes over most of the area. Charging the battery when run pretty much down takes a while.When starting a clean I pics a spot (usually the bathroom near the litter box and point it to the wall in the corner. This makes sure that it doesn't miss this area. If it does get trapped of fouled it will shut down and have to be restarted as it will not remember where it has been. Typically I let it run until it needs to recharge at which point it may or may not find its way back to the charging station.It is good to turn it over when servicing the filter box and make sure there is nothing fouling the brushes. Easy to clean brushes. It will make a difference in how well it cleans.I use an air sprayer (small compressor) to clean the foam filter and the HEPA filter. This way the filters will last a log time before replacing. If you don't have a compressor you could probably use the canned air for cleaning computer hardware.Prepping the space and putting everything back when finished is the most work and is worth the trouble.I have not used the mop feature yet.

Somehow the makers of this robot vacuum cleaner found the perfect design, a marvel of engineering!...When it comes to getting USB charging cords stuck in the thing's wheel wells. I have had to engage in major surgery probably fifteen times in the two years I've had this thing, trying to remove the stuck cords.I do try to remember to Tikom-proof the apartment but if I forget and a cord is left on a power strip? It finds a new home, wedged in this thing's wheels.It's pretty annoying. I've had six different Roombas over the years and that never happened even one time with those.Still, the little thing does a decent job and fills its dirt trap well every day so I feel pretty forgiving. Plus it was a good bit less expensive than the Roombas and cleans just as well, so.I guess I'm a robot vacuum wheel well surgeon now.

So initially I found the Tikom G8000 while on sale and I thought the price point was good the specs and suction power were great. So when the brand new robot arrived in record speed, I was elated. Then I found myself quickly disappointed because after charging the robot, It would not respond to the remote control. It would back off of the charger and when directed to move anywhere, the robot would flash red and need to be placed back on the charger again (over & over & over again). So the product was clearly malfunctioning. So I contacted Amazon Customer Rep.(who was great), sent me a return label and processed me for a replacement. Even though I was initially jilted, I really wanted this robot. It looks great and if only the manufacturing could deliver, I would have been happy. So after waiting weeks (2-3 wks) for the replacement to arrive... the day came. I quickly opened my replacement robot to find... a scratched up, used , filthy dirt canister (with dirt still inside), missing mop (and other conpents), dust & dirt from the dirt canister spewed onto the remote and charging base etc... how did I feel you ask me, DISRESPECTED... who does that? Even if you were going to sham me by sending me a used product, at least clean it first. Oh and just to see what kind of company I was dealing with, I charged the used robot to see if it would work. well it moved around, noise level was good, it seemed to pick up dirt from the floor, But I couldn't control it with the remote. Maybe that's why some else returned it. So after (2) strikes, I asked Amazon for a refund (which they honored). I have cleaned the dirt container (which I used) and will be getting this Gabage' out of my house ASAP. Buy this product at your own risk. Thanks for reading.
