Review Yeedi Vac 2 Pro robot 2in1 recognizes obstacles and washes very well
Yeedi vac 2 Pro is the new robot washes / vacuums of the prolific Chinese company yeedi which in the past months has presented excellent products in the economic range, but which has embarked on a path of evolution whose culmination is this model in which we find many advanced technical solutions.
Topics of this article:
The design is classic, a 340mm diameter black and white cylinder for a thickness of only 75mm which allows it to go where most competitors cannot.
Optical navigation and obstacle recognition
In the Yeedi vac 2 Pro navigation is entrusted to a VSlam optical system whose objective is clearly visible in the upper part. This choice is less precise than laser navigation (Lidar) but allows to contain the measurements without requiring the typical protruding turret.
This solution does not involve major differences in daily use but requires some precautions. Initial map generation is crucial: it is essential to clear the field as much as possible, avoiding obstacles and interruptions, also making sure that all the rooms are well lit. The first navigation will take a long time but in subsequent uses, it will Yeedi vac 2 Pro he will know how to orient himself better and in less time.
To assist navigation we find a great novelty: an additional optical sensor placed in the front part that has the function of identifying obstacles (maximum 3cm high) and avoiding them. This choice allows the robot to avoid objects that could obstruct or block the suction, but also to use optimized trajectories, saving time.
Then there are the classic anti-shock sensors (front bumper), the anti-fall sensors and those for the recognition of the carpets that allow you to increase the power automatically or avoid them when the washing cloth is mounted.
Good suction and excellent autonomy
Yeedi vac 2 Pro develops 3000Pa of suction power which are not many if compared to other models, but sufficient to guarantee a good daily cleaning of the floors thanks also to the large lower roller and the lateral rotating brush that contribute to a good result, even in the corners. On carpets where power is important, despite automatic recognition, the result is not always impeccable.
From the point of view of autonomy, the robot does not disappoint thanks to the big one battery 5200mAh which takes about 6 and a half hours to recharge, is able to clean a 200sqm house in suction only mode. The autonomy is strongly influenced by many factors but the "continuous cleaning”That even when the battery is almost empty, it allows the robot to go back to charging and pick up where it left off.
Super floor cleaning thanks to the oscillating cloth
Yeedi vac 2 Pro is a 2in1 robot that is able to vacuum and wash the floor at the same time. In this operation it proved to be a truly capable and effective product.
The "mop" function, which to be activated you must first have installed the appropriate accessory, consists of a 180ml tank and an oscillating cloth performs an active cleaning by oscillating and then scrubbing the floor up to 480 times per minute.
Obviously the very best result compared to those products in which the cloth is simply dragged. Dry stains or "important" dirt is easily removed leaving the floor almost as clean as manual cleaning.
In addition, the water flow is controlled by a small pump, so we can choose the amount of water to use depending on the dirt or the type of floor. We can also choose to apply a "double pass" to obtain an even better cleaning.
Finally, in this mode, when the cloth is installed, the robot will automatically recognize and avoid the carpets so as not to wet or damage them.
Yeedi vac 2 Pro with self-emptying function
Lo Yeedi Vac 2 Pro it has an internal 420ml tank for dust collection but is compatible and sold together with one as well base for self-emptying very cute measuring 22x19cm high 43,5cm.
At the end of each cleaning, once the robot has returned to the base, the collected dirt is transferred to a 2.5L bag sufficient for weeks of cleaning. The operation takes 20 seconds and the 1000W motor (noise below 80dB) is truly capable of completely emptying the robot, unless there are large residues.
Through the application it is also possible to adjust the automatic emptying every 30 minutes or to start it manually
