The Samsung POWERbot R7040 Robot Vacuum is the latest in a long line of robot vacuums that are taking the market by storm. We thought we would cut through the hype and examine the pros and cons of this model, and see if it really is worth the investment.
Pros
Overall, we were mightily impressed with the overall quality of the build of the device. It is a lot more efficient than previous versions, which we were critical of last time. There is no doubts about the cleaning ability of the Powerbot, and the battery span of the product has improved. Oh, and who doesn’t like the look of Samsung vacuums. They always look stylish and make you want to clean!
In terms of looking after the product, this is very easy to do. To remove the contents of the vacuum, just press a switch which enables you to lift out the dustbin. The filter can be washed easily, which is another advantage of this product.
In terms of using the vacuum with the app, it is easy to pair both devices, even for a novice like myself. At the touch of a button, you can check on progress, as well as see the battery life of the device. The app is that good, it will tell you when a clean has been completed, or if the device has run into an issue.
Cons
With this device, you need to purchase what are known as “boundary markers”. This prevents the device from going into areas where you don’t want it to go. Even though they are cheap, they should really be included as standard!
