Customers value the bObi Classic Robot Vacuum & Mop for its effective cleaning, ease of use, and generally good performance. Many appreciate its reasonable price and long battery life, along with the convenience of the remote control. However, some users experienced issues with navigation and reported that the robot can be noisy. A few also mentioned concerns about the sensor and wheel functionality.
Bobbi is a good little vacuum for the money. I recommend you be at home the first few times she operates as you will need to modify its work area so it doesnt get stuck under recliners, couches etc , and block areas you dont want her roaming because she will go looking for trouble and possibly get stuck. After she got stuck under my recliner I modified and picked up areas in my house so I knew she would be ok. She runs for a hour or so before needing recharged. She usually finds her charger but sometimes it may take as long as 20 minutes before finding it. The first few times I took her back to the charger after watching her run around like a lost child looking for their mommy but i figured I'd just let her try and find it on her own which in time she did. I also recomend cleaning her dust bin every use as it doesnt take much for cat or dog hair, dust, etc to almost clog the screen so I empty the bin and clean her filter after every run so she does the best job she can. I keep a clean house with one cat so I could imagine how fast the filter and dust bin would fill up with more animals than I have. Over all so far I'm happy for my purchase and thinking about getting another for my bedroom.

This product makes my life easier when it comes to sweeping my hardwood floors. I’ve had bObi for a little over a year and I’ve realized that in order to have a good experience and reduce the amount of errors you get, (I used to get them a lot and get frustrated) you have to do a bit of prepping. You have to make sure there aren’t any rugs that stick up on the corners or they’ll get pulled and the vacuum will get stuck, move any furniture that may topple over like small tables and make sure the charging station has a lot of clearance. Once you study the things you have to do prior to starting it, you can leave it to do its thing alone. Also make sure to clean the tray and check the wheels for hairs/strings. This is not a vacuum for very dirty floors, it is more of a few times a week type of sweeper. Overall I think it’s good for the price and it does help maintain my place clean.

Absolutely love it. Would've given four and a half stars, bit that option isn't available. It really does a good job, has a side battery, and comes at a great price. My only complaint (not really a gripe) is that it can get confused and takes a while to find its base. Highly recommended
