Samsung NaviBot SR8855

Meet Samsung's new robotic vacuum cleaner!

Convenient, feels solid, lots of features

Expensive, ineffective at times

The Samsung NaviBot is an expensive but awesome gadget for your home. You could buy a very good vacuum cleaner for less money and get a more thorough clean, but that would require vacuuming the manual, old-fashioned way. If you have a grand to throw...

Samsung NaviBot CornerClean review

Snazzy brushes for corners and brainier than ever, but does the new NaviBot really let you put your feet up?

Cleans quickly and methodically ; Avoids hazards with minimal setup ; So slim it often fits under furniture

Doesn’t clean as well as a mains vacuum ; Brushes get worn quickly ; Can’t clean, or climb, stairs

It’s not a total replacement for a traditional vac, but the Navibot is the best robo-cleaner yet

Samsung NaviBot

Cute. Lots of fun. Takes some worry out of house cleaning. Virtual Guard sections off areas you don't want touched. Remote control.

Expensive. Gets stuck easily. Some objects get lodged in gears. Limited remote range. Comically bad at returning to recharge station. No scheduling on base model.

The Samsung NaviBot is an adorable robotic vacuum cleaner that will clean your carpets, but requires a little too much hand-holding to make the price worthwhile.

Samsung NaviBot Corner Clean

The future is here. Well, nearly. Robo-vacuums have been around for a while now, from the mighty Roomba to Vorwerks' ace robotic vacuum. Now we've got Samsung's NaviBot Corner Clean on test, which promises cleaning super smarts - but can it keep up...

Samsung's NaviBot Corner Clean is a super-smart, fairly quiet, vacuuming machine that's well designed and can get to even the hardest to reach places. At around £450, it’s not cheap. But for a slice of futuristic cleaning tech, it's well worth...

Samsung NaviBot Review: Why I Wish I Lived In The Future

The cartoons of my youth gave me the impression that in the future we'd have an army of robot slaves to do our bidding. I got my first taste of ...

Samsung NaviBot

this is 100 times better than my roomba (or should i say my gf's) because it does it faster and doent ram into things, also quite quieter. Also doesn't leave marks on the floor

Absolutely everything

no scheduler, not that that really matters

Consumer review (productreview.com.au)

Ok - but with significant floors in some circumstances

I regret buying this product. I purchased it because it reviewed well as a robot vacuum cleaner on hard floors and was meant to be good with Pet Hair. However, in my instance we tried to use this on a polished concrete floor. Unfortunately, the dark...

Consumer review (productreview.com.au)

Keeps up with one very lazy dog and a somewhat lazy housekeeper.

ut 90 minutes and will then take itself home to recharge. It doesn't have scheduling but I don't think I'd ever use that anyway. I put it on as soon as I get up and then again at night at the other end of the house. It's not so noisy that it disturbs...
