The bObsweep Maxim is a solid choice for anyone looking for a reliable robot vacuum that balances performance, convenience, and value. Right out of the box, setup is straightforward, making it easy even for first-time robot vacuum users. In terms of cleaning power, the Maxim does a great job picking up dirt, dust, and pet hair from both hard floors and low-pile carpets. Its strong suction and wide brushes help it cover more surface area efficiently. While it may not match the highest-end models, it definitely holds its own for everyday cleaning needs. One of its standout features is the built-in UV sterilization light, which adds an extra layer of cleanliness—especially useful for homes with pets or allergies. The large dustbin also means fewer trips to empty it, which is a nice convenience. Navigation is decent, though not the smartest on the market. It uses sensors to avoid obstacles and stairs, but it can occasionally bump into furniture or miss tight corners. Still, for its price range, the performance is respectable. Battery life is another strong point, allowing it to clean medium to large areas on a single charge. It automatically returns to its charging dock when needed, which adds to the hands-off experience. Overall, the bObsweep Maxim is a dependable robot vacuum that offers good cleaning performance and useful features at a reasonable price. It’s a great option for anyone who wants to keep their floors tidy without spending a fortune.

Pros: Easy to setup. Easy to schedule. Easy to fill and empty water reservoirs When running it’s relatively quiet - My 2 dogs and 3 cats do not care about it at all but they do like to follow it around. Cons: Object detection does not include cords. Or dog toys that have ropes Super minor when refilling the clean water the condensation runs off the inside of the lid and down the outside of the unit. I just wipe it off after filling. The crown (libar) will sometimes get stuck on the underside of my counters. The vacuum clean out is heckin’ loud. So schedule it when you’re not sleeping. When creating no go zones it’s significant. I wish I could make the area smaller. I run the vac and mop every night. It completes its task 5 out of 7 nights. The other times it either eats a missed toy with a rope or gets stuck under the counter. It’s not bad but it’s not awful. It’s also pretty big there’s no hiding it - does not bother me but my husband doesn’t like looking at it.

This machine has been great to have. It cleans better than our other robot vacuum. It is quiet and easy to use. The machine did have trouble finding the docking station initially but it’s doing better now. The no sweep no mop zones on the map needs to be set for smaller areas but it’s a good machine

My first impressions are that this is one impressive robot! It cleans better than any of my previous bots and it’s super easy to use. I do wish there was a text description under most of the buttons in the app, so it’s a little easier to figure out, and that the app had a simple way to choose only vacuuming or vacuum and mop. Other than that I love it!

I had a shark vac/mop, and needed to upgrade when my shark started leaking water. Right out of the box, this one gets tangled in cords, stuck in doorway thresholds that my former two bot vacs did not. The worst part is the mopping feature is worse than poor. I have LVP floors throughout, and even after hand mopping, this mopping feature will turn a clean floor into dirty looking streaks. The root issue is that the 2 scrubbers don't touch each other and the vacuum doesnt overlap it's prior path, so there are rows of floor that are never touched. We have troubleshooted/tried to rotate the floor map hoping the vacuum would run perpendicular to the last time, but it will never adjust its path. This renders the mopping feature useless which is the sole reason I needed a new machine. The app also sucks worde than the shark app. Wouldn't be worth $200, absolutely not worth the $800 I paid.

This product is amazing!! The floors always end up looking brand new and gets into every nook and cranny. The base station is the ultimate all in one station. Cleans empty’s refills you name it. Don’t doubt yourself when deciding to buy this product. The app is really easy to use and has a lot of features. Set up was really easy especially with the manual and the large laminated instruction sheet. Comes with lots of extra parts to extend usage. Life has been so much better since our family bought this product.

I wanted to give this a serious try when people appreciated its cleaning abilities. The vacuum and mop features are good i.e., picks up most of the things and mops very well. Where it falls short is at its object avoidance system, it's terrible. We recently moved into new home and with no things around it worked flawlessly. After we settled in it started to struggle, picking up socks (gets stuck), cables toys and even bruising itself by running into baseboards. I will end up returning this bObsweep only because of object avoidance issue.

I love this product, it has been cleaning my hardwood floors very well and I have it set on a schedule. I wish the app looked a little better for design, but I can’t complain since it’s free in the App Store and it does its job still the only negative aspect I have with the bObsweep is that the lighting affects the camera and sometimes it thinks the light from windows if it’s very bright, we’ll think it’s a wall. I’ve had that issue a little bit another issue I’ve had as well is that it tangled very easily with chargers or plugs in the wall I believed the camera would help with that since it’s AI , but it just is a magnet for all wires, and it struggles with any type of carpet in my house, transitioning from carpet to hardwood floors outside that it does its job perfectly and I have no complaints for when it comes to its basic functions.

In love with this product! I usually do not leave reviews, but this one deserves one! If you’re skeptical about buying this mop, don’t even think twice. This has a rotating dual mop on the back, which actually cleans the floor and not just drags a microfiber rag and runs through it. It also selfs empties, washes the mop and dries itself. the only thing you need to for maintenance is, refill the clean water tank and empty the dirty water tank. The plus side is that it actually uses a cleaning solution so clean the floor and mop, leaving your floors clean and smelling fresh! Best purchase ive made this year, hands down. My floors never looked clean. If this post sounds like im trying to sell you the mop, well, its the best Deal of the Day purchase on Best Buy!!

I recently got a robotic vacuum with a mop, and honestly it’s exceeded all my expectations. It vacuums and mops at the same time, leaving my floors cleaner than any robot I’ve owned before. The app is super intuitive, and I love being able to set no-go zones so it avoids certain areas. It even detects rugs automatically and skips mopping them, which is a huge plus. Maintenance is minimal. I just change the water once over the weekend, and that’s pretty much it. The built-in camera does a great job avoiding cables and obstacles, which feels like a big upgrade from older models. Also, I have a cat (<3), and not only he is totally fine with it, but there’s basically no pet hair left around anymore since I started using it. Highly recommend if you are pet owner. Overall, this has been a game-changer for keeping my floors clean with almost zero effort.

Our first bObsweep Maxim arrived damaged. The detergent container on the base station was cracked and leaked, and the bot itself would not map or clean more than a few square inches. We returned the defective unit and ordered a second. It quite honestly exceeded all expectations. It mapped a somewhat complex floor plan with several different surfaces very accurately. It both sweeps and mops very systematically and thoroughly. The app experience is significantly improved and the unit far outperforms our older Pethair Vision Plus (which we were quite happy with, as well).

Incredible performance, quiet operation, and great mopping This robot vacuum blows my previous name-brand models out of the water. Pros: * Extremely quiet: Runs smoothly without causing a disturbance. * Smart navigation: Cleans efficiently and quickly without constantly slamming into furniture or items. * Effective mopping: The dual vacuum and mop capability is a fantastic addition. Cons: * App experience: The companion app needs a bit of polish to be more user-friendly, particularly with map management and setup suggestions. Despite the app room for improvement, the actual cleaning performance is top-tier. Still easily deserves 5 stars!

I think this is a great choice for most people (with not a lot of loose wires & or extraneous things laying around). The BOBSWEEP MAXIM has twice the power I needed for my place & has a heavy duty build! Once you get used to the software settings & let it map the route, future sweeps & mops are simply at the press of a button.

My wife loves this cleaning machine. She named it Bob and it does its job. It will vacuum and then mop . I have 2 dogs and 2 cats and it picks up the hair that I dont see. Easy set up, would definitely recommend this product.

The Maxim is the best Robot vacuum I have owned and believe me, like most everyone else, I've owned lots of them trying to find one that actually works. The mapping and obstacle avoidance system on the Maxim works very well. It has massive suction power that sucks up anything in it's path. Best of all though is the self washing mop feature. The unit can be set to wash the mop as often as required during cleaning so the mop actually cleans the floor and doesn't just drag around a dirty mop. I definitely highly recommend.

Ran like a champ for 2 months straight. Then the error codes started showing up. Left wheel jammed. Right wheel jammed. Their tech support help me reset and disassemble to check for obstructions. There was no issue at all that I could see. The wheels even moved freely for me by hand. Seemed like the motors were just giving up. Tech support wants to repair it themselves. We definitely want it back up and running.

Easy to set up and connect. Map is interesting to navigate. Will pick up cords if left within range. Sometimes takes the hardest route but gets the job done.

The first few times it worked great but for some reason the trash won't suck out when sent back to base. I have to take out the trash by hand. The in the third week of having it it started spinning in a circle. I flipped it over and one of the wheels is stuck and won't move. I'm going to return it.

Out of all the various robot vacuums and mop bots I have tried so far, this has got to be the most thorough of them all. With that though, it is very persistent and you have got to “baby proof” your floor. Any cables that lay on the floor, even close to the wall should be picked up. Light loose rugs, shoe laces, clothing, all should be tucked out of the reach of this bObsweep before letting it go. Once it is let loose, it is going to try and clean every nook and cranny that it can get into and extend its arms out to the edge the whole way. Everything to get started is in the box, plus some. Many bots like this do usually include a spare brush like this one, but you also get 2 containers of cleaner, two different types of mop pads, a spare filter and an extra charcoal infused vacuum bag. It also has a little multitool for cleaning and cutting any hair strings that might get wrapped up and the most premium looking color owners manual I have seen in a product in a long while. Setup is pretty simple. Put the base in the preferred location near a plug, snap the ramp on the front, snap on the brush, the mop pads to the bot, which you get a choice of pad simply by pulling them off and putting on the other style. Fill the cleaning solution reservoir with one of the included bottles. Fill the water reservoir and start following directions on the app for setup. When you start the mapping process it uses their VisiOn Camera & QSLAM® Technology, which is interesting to watch. As it enters the room in the center, turns around and if it doesn't see any extra openings, leaves for the next room. It had my whole house mapped in no time flat. One thing I had never seen before, it even had open areas mapped, despite it not being able to reach them. Like the space under my recliner, because it was visible at the time it scanned. On other mop bots I have tried, the mop is essentially a damp rag just dragged on the back side of the vacuum. This one has two rotating pads. Like I said, this is the most thorough bot because the sweeper arm on the front and one of the rotating mop pads both extend. So, it reaches into corners, along baseboards and in some places like under a door or my stove, it gets under it ever so slightly. But, that is already further than most. The app gets you started, but it has a lot of icons with no real explanation on what they are for. There are also a lot of settings for things like cleaning preferences such as increasing the vacuum power over default and if you want it to refresh itself more often. Especially if you know you have high traffic cleanup. One setting I had to change was the edge detection because apparently it can see some dark items as an edge and will avoid them. I have a dark brown wire cover across one of my carpets and it acted like that was an edge, it would get to it and turn away every time. Once I disabled the edge detection, it went right over it like it was nothing. However, now there is the concern of my stairs. You can edit the map and tell it that the space is a no mop and no sweep zone. So far, it has ignored that visually scanned area as planned. There is also a setting on intensity for self empty. It says “stronger (and louder)” and it means it. With that, every time I have checked the filter on the bot, there wasn’t much to brush off. Other bots I have had to clean the filter at least every few cycles as there would be a layer of dust built up. With the self cleaning, it also has options for heated pad cleaning. It seems to work pretty well in refreshing the mop pads. Though, eventually you will still need to give them a deeper cleaning by simply peeling them off and throwing them in the wash. Overall, this is the most thorough bot I have ever seen. My floors are spotless and there is even less for me to clean up after because it reached into those corners for me. Though, I have had to go on a few rescue missions for not realizing my shoe laces were out or there was some loose wire for it to choke on.
