A:AnswerIt will not detect dog poop. Unfortunately it happened to me and now our vacuum smells like poop when it empties the vacuum. We cleaned the vacuum itself but the charger/collector cannot be cleaned so it stinks so badly now when the vacuum empties itself.
A:AnswerYes, you can set up a map on the app so it will only mop in certain areas. I have some area rugs and it was a little difficult to add those to the map, but main carpeted rooms were easy to avoid with the mop.
A:AnswerI have a couple of rugs in my bathroom and one is pretty thick. It will sometimes cause the vacuum to stop and I have to restart. If I pick up the rugs it works just fine.
A:AnswerThis model has one rotating side brush. The major brush is the center rotating brush under the unit. I have seen models with 2 rotating brushes, but have no complaints from this model. (Note: my box came with 2 side brushes so that there is a replacement if/when needed.)
