Dreame F9 Robot Vacuum Mop Review
The Dreame F9 Robot Vacuum Mop is an impressive smart vacuum with strong suction power and follows efficient cleaning path. After mapping out our floor area and setting up the daily cleaning schedule, we simply leave it up to the Dreame F9 Robot Vacuum Mop to keep the area clean.
Strong Suction Power
The Dreame F9 has a 2500 Pa suction power which is one of the strongest in the market today. It collects dirt effectively. We can feel the floor to be squeaky clean once it finishes with the vacuum.
The mop function makes it even more impressive. The amount of water has 3 levels of control. So we can adjust the right amount of water it sprays out so that the floor quickly dries up after mopping. After the mop, we can really notice a dust-free floor. It is very effective.
The Dreame F9 does create some noise but it’s tolerable. The suction speed can be adjusted to make the noise lower.
Mapping Function and Cleaning Schedules
The mapping function allows the robot vacuum to have a visual layout of the room. Once the room is mapped, the Dreame F9 knows where the walls are and some of the obstacles like shelves and tables. It can also automatically detect a room.
The Dreame F9 just use cameras and gyroscopes for mapping. It is not very accurate but it can build a decent map of the room. You can then assign rooms and zones and command the robot vacuum to clean these specific areas only.
The Dreame F9 needs at least 3 complete clean cycles to create a map of the room. Once the map is saved, the magic begins. You can now clean by zones or by room only. You can assign restricted areas where the robot vacuum will not include in the cleaning.
You can further automate the robot vacuum by schedule a cleaning time. This can be once a day or several times a day. This is our favorite function. We schedule an early morning cleaning time and we wake up to clean floors every day!
Xiaomi Home App Features
All functions and features of the Dreame F9 are accessed using the Xiaomi Home App. The Xiaomi Home App is available for both Android and iOS.
Through the Xiaomi Home App, you can create the map for the Dreame F9, configure cleaning settings, create schedules for cleaning, use the remote control, check cleaning history, and more.
Hopefully, the app will be updated with add more features soon.
No Multi Floor Option
However, the Dreame F9 has no multifloor option. It can only map one floor which means you can only make clean up schedules on that floor. If we need to use the Dreame F9 on the second floor, we just carry it upstairs and use the remote control function to manually move it around the rooms.
The room selection is automated. You wont be able to create your own room. The Dreame F9 makes them on its own and you just assign it a name. We have a small play area that we hope to isolate from the map but it is identified as part of the big room. We can’t give it its own name in the map.
Summary
The Dreame F9 does the cleaning smart and efficient. The scheduling feature keeps our place clean without breaking a sweat. We can just wake up to a clean place everyday. The mapping feature takes a while to setup but it works great. While there are other more advanced vacuum robots, the Dreame F9 works perfectly for our needs.
The Dreame F9 is priced at 12,290.00. The price varies depending on the seller. You can purchase them either in Gadget Hunter Store in Lazada or in Dreame Store in Shopee.
