In the review below we will see the technical characteristics and the price of this product.

IKOHS netbot S15 is a model of robot vacuum cleaner with a round shape with a diameter of 33 cm and a height of just 7.5 cm, a very low value and perfectly suitable for passing the appliance under most of the furniture, beds and sofas in the house, in order to optimize the efficiency of daily cleaning even in places that are difficult to reach. The robot weighs about 3 kg and is quite silent, having a noise level that stands at 60 db.

Navigation system and functions

IKOHS netbot S15 has a random navigation system, but thanks to the 5 different cleaning modes present, the device will be able to cover the entire surface of the house in its action. The 5 cleaning modes are: automatic mode, with the robot going around the house randomly; "edges" mode, which will guarantee cleaning along the edges of the various rooms; "room" mode, with the robot that can clean only one room in the house; "spot" mode, for targeted cleaning of a small area (in this case the suction power will be maximum); finally, it will be possible to program the different daily and weekly cleaning cycles. There are anti-obstacle and anti-fall sensors, to avoid any problem when navigating the robot: they are called "gyroscopic sensors" and have the particularity of ensuring intelligent navigation to the robot by managing to cover the entire surface to be cleaned. Furthermore, it will be possible to create "virtual walls", thanks to a magnetic barrier to be positioned at the entrance of areas or rooms that you do not wish to clean. The robot is, as mentioned, programmable, and everything can be managed with a convenient app directly from your smartphone: you can also manage cleaning times, specific functions and a possible sudden shutdown of the robot. The actual work performed by the robot during the cleaning process and what remains to be done can be checked live on the app. In addition, the Wi-Fi system with voice recognition is compatible with ALEXA and Google Home systems. The robot can also be controlled remotely thanks to a practical remote control supplied. IKOHS netbot S15 is equipped with a 2600 mAh lithium-ion battery, capable of ensuring a total autonomy of about 120 minutes. When the robot is unloaded, it automatically returns to the charging base, but care must always be taken to leave the doors of the various rooms open, to avoid that the device cannot return to charge. The exact charging times are not indicated in the product data sheet.

Cleaning system

IKOHS netbot S15 is a robot vacuum cleaner with a good 25 Watt suction power. The appliance can clean on 2 different suction powers: the normal one, in less dirty areas of the surface, and the maximum one, in particularly dirty areas, thanks to a powerful turbine with "Max Power" technology that manages to maximize the power of suction up to 1400 Pa. The robot has some difficulty in cleaning the carpets, even with short hair. This model is equipped with the dual function of vacuum cleaner and floor cleaner. The robot will be able to sweep, vacuum, pass the cloth and wash on different surfaces, maximizing cleaning efficiency. During the washing phase, this device will automatically be able to dose and distribute the water evenly over the entire electrostatic microfibre cloth. This robot is equipped with “Broom Pro” technology, with a motorized rotating central brush that cleans the most difficult dirt in depth, thanks also to the help of the 2 side brushes that convey the dirt towards the suction nozzle from the corners of the surface. The brushes are equipped with fine bristles, which do not scratch the floor and do not ruin the furniture, and "Animal Care" rubber silicone, which does not allow the hair of animals that may be present in the house, to tangle and cause problems during cleaning. Another advantage of the robot is in reference to the container for collecting dust and dirt: it is very large and the value is 0.6 l. The container is easy to empty. There are 2 filters that ensure excellent work during suction: it is advisable to often clean the filters with running water to always ensure maximum efficiency.

IKOHS netbot S15 is a robot vacuum cleaner with an excellent quality / price ratio. At a price of less than 200 pounds, it is really difficult to find a device equipped with all these functions and excellent general technical characteristics. Battery runtimes and suction power are good; the possibility of programming the device thanks to a specific app and the dual function of the robot in being a vacuum cleaner and, optionally, also a floor washer, make this model truly attractive.
