Neato Botvac Connected D5 Robot Hoover - with Free 5 Year Guarantee

I've tried my new Neato D5 a couple of times already and I'm very satisfied with the results so far. I have a cat and a bunny and I chose Neato D5 specifically because it is great for pet hair. I can say it really does a great job picking all the hair. It works fast, it's not very noisy - my conventional vacuum cleaner is times louder. It goes pretty much everywhere it can fit , it's really manoeuvrable. It cannot substitute my normal vacuum cleaner 100 but it keeps the house really neat and clean in between regular vacuums and even prolongs the time between these regular vacuums. Overall I strongly recommend it especially to people with pets.

The D5 is a bit too tall, and so fails to get under most items.
At time has some connectivity issues, and the side sweeper could be more effective it it was bigger.

But all in all, so far so good. Cleans well, is easy enough to set up

Very easy to set up and get going - even with Alexa and the Neato app. Makes a very good job of the floors and climbs over even tall rugs - the only thing that got it into trouble has been the inch-high door mat. Computer cables do need tidying away but that’s easy with simple cable tidy products and you might have to tweak the position of some furniture to allow access to all areas and space to turn but in general I’ve done nothing special and it works brilliantly. I’d never be without a robot vacuum now :)

very smart and lovely robot I am sutisfied

I'm still learning to use it, but so far i realy love it. It really helps with keeping the house clean, it easilly fits under our beds and other furniture, so that's a great plus.

For me, Neato vacuum cleaners are the best on the market. I chose this brand after having seen several comparative videos between robots on YouTube. The D-shape of this vacuum cleaner allows to cover a larger suction area at each passage. The navigation system is accurate and works even in rooms completely in the dark. The vacuum cleaner brush is very good in dirt sweeping, which in conjunction with good suction power, causes this vacuum cleaner to pick up almost 100 of the dirt in the first pass. My house has no carpeting, so I can not talk about the suctioning capacity of these materials. However, I have a husky, and I think that just shows how good this vacuum cleaner is. The only less positive point of this vacuum cleaner is the technical assistance provided directly by Neato, who claims to be slow. When I requested their help on a technical issue, it took 9 days to respond... fortunately the response they gave me was helpful. Due to this long wait time, I ended up getting the answer I needed much earlier via a post on the www.robotreviews.com forum. So if you have any misfortune with your robot, you can first ask for help of this forum, then with the help of the store where the vacuum cleaner was purchased, and finally with the Neato assistance. Even so I recommend this robot, I was surprised by the positive with all the hardware aspects of this little wonder.

Good quality for good price

I'm excited about systematic cleaning, perfectly done work on carpets and picks up the cat hair.
My tomcat does not trust him, it'sfun to watch the interaction between them.

Amazing little machine. Navigates with great care.

The best vacuum robot I ever seen. It is my second one and Neato D5 does marvellous job.

Works a treat and picks up the dogs hair. Great fun watching the dog avoiding it

Still in proces to recieve, but i got recomendation from friends. Its owesome.

I have tested it for a short time. Vacuum cleaner is OK, very powerful suction, systematic moving, but cleaning took more time as I expected. I was slightly dissapointed, there is not a command to send robot to charging base. By using smartphone with WiFi, if robot is stop by pushbutton on mobile somewhere in middle room, the only way how to get robot to base, is to bring it there.

Extreeeeeeemely happy with the robot, have it for a month now. We call him Snoopy :P - does better job than my wife and myself combined :)
We used to use 200 quid Dyson - the master of the heavy weight vacuum cleaners Now got rid of it, no more manual vacuuming that's for sure Need to save our 30 yrs old backs :P
Jokes on the side, the D5 Neato does excellent job on the carpets, very surprised how much dirt it takes out. Also, the wooden floors are very well polished after it spins that brush As a matter of fact, the floors are so polished and slippery that you can slide on them like in the ice skating rink :D
A little exaggerating won't hurt aye, but that's the result of a happy customer Highly recommending this gadget Good night love.

Super machne.................................

The only minus is that there is no warranty repair service in the Baltics. In case of a warranty accident I would need to send to the other country, plus sending costs would occur.
Hope nothing would happen or there will be a service shop in Lithuania or Latvia by then.

Works as described, love the way it sistematically cleans and isn’t all over the place. Perfect for us. We even made it work extra hard the first day. In anticipation of it’s arrival I haven’t vacuumed for a few days and since we have two cavaliers who shed like crazy, there were dog hair bunnies’ everywhere. No biggie for it, vacuumed it all.

It’s great but gets stuck easily - don’t leave anything on the ground

Very impressive performance

I am very happy with my robot

I chose the neato because I had already had one and it was the best aspiration robot I had until the moment I had already had a roomba and it does not even have a comparison, it is fast accurate and without need of bumps to orient.

I do like the botvac but it is not very careful around walls and wall edges. It scratches the latex on the walls and the wall edges and leaves black marks or dints. Still, it does good job cleaning the house. It is fairly easy to clean the robot and the brushes.

Works good, though scratches also good.

Navigation is great. Not flawless yet, but it's soooo much better than any Roomba at this price, that it's totally worth it :) If their is a thick layer of dust somewhere (like deep under a bed), it won't take it in one run, but since you'll be using it regularly, there will be no place with thick layer of dust after a few runs ever :)

Good vacuum cleaner. Cleans well, especially dog fur.

A good vacuum : I prefer neato models without random path...because they are more efficient.

I already have one Neato product. We do live in a large multi story home, and it is easier having a different Robovac on each lever, which is why I have ordered another one. I wouldn't be without my Neato's and I do recommend them. Everyone has a dishwasher and wouldn't necessarily think of getting a Robovac, however, now that I have experienced a Neato, I would certainly not be without

Owned it only for a week. I don't have stairs - but I have a 3 rooms + kitchen + bathroom + hall flat.

Good:
- can manage several rooms
- goes everywhere
- knows how to turn around the legs of furniture
- manages to clean under the table with all the chairs around (though the presence of chairs slows it down quite a bit, as it tries to go around each legs even when there's not enough room)
- easy to use (only two buttons, and one little LCD with basic functionality: set hour and schedule)
- can clean carpets (if they're rigid enough: doesn't like bathroom mat for instance)
- has no problem to find its base when needs to recharge
- does a good job

Less good:
- a bit noisy
- will sometimes bump into walls and doors or slightly move furniture around (chairs)
- dust bin easy to take off, but not so easy to empty: the door of the dustbin is the filter, and most of the dust sticks to the filter, which is not so easy to clean.
- the barrier does not work that well: the robot will try to push it around. It could be worth to order some more barrier if you have complex rooms and want to prevent the robot from going in places where you have stuff lying around (guitars, cables).

Great performance, the navigation works well.

Quality and description meets expectations.

Excellent robot aspiration très nette se t retrouve bien dans l espace juste un peu bruyant.

We are using it on a wooden floor.The robot has a compulsive disorder, not leaving a single spot untreated, fighting around the chair legs like a hero - I am deeply impressed about the accuracy. Much better results than expected.
Our carpets have fringes and cause problems, so we take the away when the robot should work.

After much research and the demise of our trusty Sebo Felix the Neato D85 was ordered. Could not really believe the reviews but have been proved wrong.
We have the advantage of living in a single level bungalow so Neato has full access to entire house if doors are left open.
Cleans very effectively as long as bin is kept empty. Rugs do not prove a problem (unless with tassels).
Can easily loose a couple of hours the first couple of days following it around, thinking it's missed a spot but it soon returns and covers every area.
Has run for over 90 mins before returning to base for a rest.
Had the vacuum for over a month now and cannot fault it. It really does do what it claims.

Really impressed, didn't expect it to be as good as it was when I tried it, hence I bought one.

A bit noisy, battery could last longer.

We had a Neato before, and this one is even better
Totally satisfied.
