As potetial buyers seem to have found this. I have been using the Mi robot 1C for 2years every day and cleaning the corners with a cloth i overkill. Just wait until the next day, the magic about robocleaner is that they clean often and thereby the total amount of dust become less and less. And sooner or later something going to move the dust in that corner to the floor where the robot will take it. 2year review from daily use. 1. Pirated filter and brushes are used as xiaomi is insanely overpriced. But they don't clean as good as original, bud good enought. 2. Battery used to be enough to clean the entire home, now it need to recharge 1-2times to do the task. 3. There is a filter that need to be cleaned manually, and you have to disassemble the entire thing to do it. (if you don't feel air blowing out in the back, pick upp your screew driver and find a disassemble youtube video)
The reason there's only 1 side brush, is that on the other side there's a floor tracking sensor that helps map the house. If there was a side brush constantly spinning under the floor tracking sensor, it would interfere with the mapping.
Hi bro, u having a very good review on it.. I like the part u show the cons the cannot clean the corner and the app feature as well... As I know this model only can scan one flood of map. May I know how long it take to scan a flood map? Cos I'm stuck at mop 2 and mop 2 pro...
Why does my vacuum smell bad when I use it? Wash the clothes each using and always clear the dust compartment still have this isue. Any way to fix this problem? Thanks
Full auto. Click on the power button & it'll start scanning & cleaning automatically. After it has gone through your house once, it'll have the map of your house, and therefore, you can program it to clean a specific area of your house after the 1st cleaning job
Hi there! I'm planning to get one and your review is definitely helpful in aiding my decision process. I have a question though - As I noticed on the last part of your vid (basic maintenance), the hairs that got picked up will be tangled along with the brushes. Does it mean the vacuum will only pick up fine dust and debris into the trash compartment but not hair? Appreciate your input in this! Thank you :)
It’ll pick up hair, but since it’s a rolling brush, you will have to deal with constantly cutting the hair away from the brush. That is the biggest downside of this product IMO. But the pros outweigh the cons so I think it’s a great product
Bought this. The stupidest vacuum cleaner I have ever seen. Keeps coming back to the same (already perfectly clean) spots and doesn’t register a lot of other areas that it leaves untouched. You have to move if physically for it to clean them. Incredibly inefficient. Burns through the battery for nothing.
Hi! My mop 2 lite keeps forgetting the map. I make a reset and he keeps the map, but then, when I'll use it again, it forgets the map and start over again, but can't save the new one.
If I'm not mistaken, the manual says not to use any detergent. So far, I only use filtered water. I don't rely on this to do all the cleaning. The Robot Vacuum helps to spread out the interval of me doing proper cleaning using an actual vacuum & mop. Before this, I have to vacuum & mop twice a week, but with the Mi Robot Vacuum, that's changed to once a week
Hi! Could you help me? I tried the vacuum for awhile it worked, & charged it and now it doesn’t want to turn on. I tried the 3-5secs hold. Lights doesn’t blink now :(
Would you help me? I have two floors in my house and I don´t know how to use de mijia 1c. Should I disable the smart map management? Every time I use the mijia it will reset the maps in each floor? Or there is a way of save two maps? I don´t know what to do... thanks for your attention
i think you have to bring the vacuum to each floor and press the start button, it’ll run as a new place. The map is just to store history if you want to tell it to clean a specific area I think.
When its fully charged, is it on standby mode?i did not turn off the robot but i turn off the charging dock..when i want to start cleaning when i go to the app it stated that the robot is offline, do i have to switch on the robot manually everytime to start cleaning or can i switch it on from the app?
Me too. One of the best gadgets I've owned. However, hair will get stuck on the brush which is the only thing annoying about maintaining the robot vacuum
I haven't as I live in a studio apartment. But I think it won't be a problem if you pick it up & bring it to another level. It'll start cleaning the new area
I was advised by the sales staff that the robot drops it's mop just b4 returning to its docking station for charging. My unit drops it's mop at different places. I hv to locate the mop after each each. Does it happen when U use Ur robot vacuum and mop?
what do you mean drop its mop? Do you mean the mop module accidentally popped out while cleaning? This has happened to me if I did not connect the mop module correctly until I hear 2 clicks.
@@helmi_finance. Thk u for Ur prompt response. Really appreciate it. I fix the mop module properly with 2 click sound each time I use the robot vacuum . However, by the time the robot returns to the charging dock (probably battery is low), the mop is no longer attached to the unit. I hv to look for it around the house 😅. So I contacted the shop who sold me the robot vacuum. The shop told that the Robot vacuum wud drop the mop module when it's battery runs low before it returns to the docking station. They told me to set the job for the robot vacuum to a shorter time so that it can return to the charging dock with the mop module still attached. I hv yet to try this out. Appreciate Ur sharing on this. Thank u

Hey man. Great video and review. I purchased one and recieved it today. Setup of the unit, network and connection to app wets seamless. However, I seem to be missing the 'map management' button on my app and cannot add rooms and manage any map recording. The vacuum works well and navigates a room but doesn't save the space and will go on a totally new path come a restart after docking. Anyone else have this issue?
im having the same issue too- the app/mop restarts from the beginning and doesnt record anything once it goes back to the dock- have you managed to find a solution to it?
@@NAMANPATHAK map management started working for me after 2/3 weeks in the mi map - i suggest maybe you give it some time....as for the room selection you would have to wait until your rooms are mapped to do so!

May I know how long it take to scan a flood map?

It scans while it cleans the first time
Hi. This is really helpful. Thank you.
One question.
At the end on the video is something called as map management where I can find it?
how does this one compared to iLife L100?
Why does my vacuum smell bad when I use it? Wash the clothes each using and always clear the dust compartment still have this isue. Any way to fix this problem? Thanks

For any brand...
What about the "motor power" consistency?
Does it become weak over time?
Or does it just 'die out' instead of slowing down?
i’ve been using this every week for over a year already. It’s still going strong
What is the height of the robot? Wanna know if it will fit underneath my bed.
Do you know how i can use this on the 2nd level of the house?
Just bring it up there. The are downward firing sensors to prevent the robot from falling off a flight of stairs
Hi, i want to buy mop 2 lite. Is it the same device from your video?
This is Robot Vacuum 1C
@@helmi_finance does the mop 2 lite have the cliff detection as well?
Any update today? Is there a problem after 1 year of using? Is it functioning until now?

I have the mi vacuum mop 2 lite and i don't have the map management on the app. Would you happen to know why or how i can solve the issue ?
Not sure about that. Probably need to check your manual for your particular model
I face the same problem. Has anyone managed to solve it?
Thanks, man. So hard to find an actual manual for this shit.
Thanks!
thank you for the great review!

WHY THIS MAP FEATURE IS NOT SHOWING UP IN MY APP CAN YOU GUIDE PLEASE?
you need to let it run on auto first to scan your home. Then the map will be there
Thanks for the video, I got a question during I doing swiping task (NO MOPPING) , Do I have to remove the mop module or mop pad ? thanks
If you don't want any mopping, you can take out the Mop and it'll only vacuum

Hey, is map management works for u? Also. Not able to choose specific S type cleaning
whats the difference between these xiaomi vacuum robots? such as 2 lite and 2c. looks so similar but i cant tell the difference

Hey I have got mi robo 2i... But I can't map the house. Can you help me how to do it?
You need the let the robot automatically go through your house 1 time to get it mapped. It will be on your Mi home app after that
Can we use floor cleaning liquid like AJAX in the water tank?
If I'm not mistaken, the manual says not to use any detergent. So far, I only use filtered water.
I don't rely on this to do all the cleaning. The Robot Vacuum helps to spread out the interval of me doing proper cleaning using an actual vacuum & mop. Before this, I have to vacuum & mop twice a week, but with the Mi Robot Vacuum, that's changed to once a week
Bro can i know are this model xiaomi mop 2 lite?
i believe this one is 1c
Am planning to buy , anyone who bought another type and it works
Helmi, thanks for the well explained review. Stay Blessed!
What’s the name of the app?
Mi Home
Hi! Could you help me? I tried the vacuum for awhile it worked, & charged it and now it doesn’t want to turn on. I tried the 3-5secs hold. Lights doesn’t blink now :(
not sure about that. you might have to refer to the manual, forum or contact their customer service
If I prep and arrange everything , i might as well vacuum the house myself
Which addresses the limitation of the robot vacuum

I can switch it on from the app. You might want to check with the user manual as well
Hope Xiaomi can launch SQUARE robotic vacuum cleaner in the future.
To tackle the corners right? I wonder why no one ever invented one.
@@helmi_finance That's right!
Does the dock needs to be always plugged in for the scheduled clean up to work?
If I'm not charging, I'd unplug the dock. Similar like you don't want to always plugin the power to your laptop all the time.
Thank you. I got the wrong time zone thats why it didnt clean up as scheduled
Can it be connected with Alexa? thank you
no it can’t
Yes you can, my vacuum is connected to Alexa.
I’m using Xiaomi Robot Vacuum 2 tho, not sure about the one in the video.
How often do you clean it and remove the hair etc?
If I use it everyday, I clean the hairs once a week
Cool vid! But how do you set it to clean other rooms only?
Hi ..how to save a map creates.. i cannot seem to find any option in the menu.
Under 'experimental features'.
Hi there! Can the machine just do mopping without the vacuum function and where do you buy the mop if It is worn out
no its always together. You can search for the replacement parts online. Last time i googled, they are accessible
is long hair a problem, does it get stuck when cleaning?
Yes. As can be seen in the video at the end. I showed about the hair problem & how to remove it from the brush
Thank you!
What is that app name?
how many maps can be saved? can set virtual wall and no go zone? thanks
Not sure. Currently, I only utilize 1 map
I am so happy with this product :D
Me too. One of the best gadgets I've owned. However, hair will get stuck on the brush which is the only thing annoying about maintaining the robot vacuum
I have that one!

Does somebody tries to pick it up to multiple rooms? it save the map area or nah?
I haven't as I live in a studio apartment. But I think it won't be a problem if you pick it up & bring it to another level. It'll start cleaning the new area
Can it be an actual good replacement to our roborock s5?
