What's the least favorite chore to do? As far as I am concerned, sweeping and mopping are definitely in one or two places. As a senior "lazy" user, the emergence of sweeping robots undoubtedly saved me, so I have used no less than ten different types of products. But they always give me a feeling that is a little worse, or not practical enough, and many operations still need to be done by themselves; Either not smart enough and always easily trapped.
Recently, under the recommendation of a friend, I started the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO, as a product with an all-round base station, equipped with hybrid solid-state lidar, and the first AINA artificial intelligence algorithm, its performance really surprised me. Today, I would like to share with you my real experience of using the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO for nearly a month.
【Decathlon base station, bring gold experience】
As a global service robot company, Cobos still has a very thorough understanding of user needs, as can be seen from the first Cobos DEEBOT X1 equipped with a one-stop clean all-round base station released in 2021. After two years, the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO has also comprehensively upgraded its base station, officially calling it the "Decathlon Base Station".
It is not difficult to see from the above picture that the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO has not only been upgraded in a full range of functions, but also the overall volume control of the base station is still very good, with a length, width and height of 39.4*30.25*52.75cm, which is smaller than similar products. And it is also very friendly to the reserved distance on both sides of the base station, and the narrowest only needs 5cm. Therefore, the base station of the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO as a whole can achieve a smaller footprint than similar products, and it will not be obtrusive at home.
In addition to the small footprint, the overall appearance of the base station of the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO is also very high, like the space gray I chose looks very textured, with the hidden light strip design, it can be well adapted to various home decoration styles. At the same time, it is also very reasonable for the design of the button position, you can click it on the top panel, you don't need to bend down to complete the operation, and it is more comfortable to use.
The base station of Coase Deebot X2 PRO is not only small in size and high in appearance, but also the most functional of similar products, supporting hot water cleaning rags, sewage identification system, automatic backwashing mops, automatic dust collection when returning to the base station, 2-hour hot air drying, silver ion sterilization, automatic water replenishment, one-key self-cleaning, automatic water loading and sewing, and automatic liquid dosing.
In the same price sweepers used before, there will always be a problem that the mop is not cleaned thoroughly, and even need to be cleaned manually. However, during this time of using the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO, I did not find this problem. First of all, its hot water as a clean "ambient temperature" can not only strengthen the activity of detergents, but also gelatinize viscous substances such as oil stains and starches; Secondly, with it simulating the mopping, rubbing and squeezing mop backwashing process of the drum washing machine, it can achieve very efficient cleaning. Maybe it's not intuitive to say this, so I took a comparison picture before and after mop cleaning, and you can feel its cleaning effect very clearly through the picture below.
In addition to efficiently cleaning mops without the hassle of hand rubbing, the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO also comes with hot air drying, which automatically dries the mop after cleaning, avoiding odors and bacteria. At the same time, in terms of sterilization ability, it also adds a silver ion sterilization module, which can achieve 99.99% sterilization of mops, water tanks and floors. For users with small babies at home, it is a good way to eliminate some allergens.
Another biggest feeling of using the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO is that it is very efficient, such as these self-cleaning functions mentioned above, not only can be directly controlled by voice, but also can be achieved with one key through the buttons on the base station.
While the operation efficiency is high, its use efficiency is also greatly improved. Like myself, the areas that generally need to be cleaned are the living room and dining room, and in the past, when using other brand products, I could only manually control the key cleaning area, which was very cumbersome. However, the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO supports sewage identification, which can determine the degree of dirt according to the turbidity of sewage in the cleaning area, so as to intelligently determine whether key cleaning is required; Combined with its automatic hydration function, the whole house cleaning process does not require human intervention, realizing true full intelligence.
Another very efficient point is that the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO base station can automatically collect dust, and the suction power of up to 27KPa after the return of the local treasure can suck all the garbage in the dust box into the dust bag. After this period of use, the 3L ultra-large capacity dust bag basically made me forget that I also need to manually pour ash, and its dust collection efficiency is also very high, which I personally like.
Since I bought the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO when it has been renovated, I did not choose the automatic water supply and sewage module, but it is still recommended that friends who are ready to decorate reserve a position in advance, automatic water loading and drainage can not only save you the trouble of adding water and pouring water, but also can automatically add cleaning liquid, which is simply not too convenient.
In fact, the reservation of Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO is very simple, through the following picture can be very intuitive to understand, and the placement of the base station is not limited to the balcony, such as the bathroom, entrance, living room are no problem. But in my personal experience, it is recommended that the location you choose is to have sockets; The second is to facilitate the inlet and outlet of the water and reduce the length of the pipeline as much as possible; The third is to be close to the router, so that there will be a better experience.
Judging from the performance of the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO, the "Decathlon Base Station" is worthy of its name, and the impression left on me by using it this month is two words: peace of mind. Not only is it comprehensive and easy to use, but its base station has also been designed with great effort. When using other sweepers with base stations, cleaning the bottom of the base station is often very cumbersome, but the bottom of the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO base station is detachable and easy to remove.
[Soft and hard blessing, efficient cleaning, no hygiene dead ends]
In the past, when using the sweeper, there were always problems such as not being intelligent enough, easy to be trapped, and there were sanitary dead spots in the corners of the house, so during the time of using the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO, I not only paid attention to the convenience brought by its all-round base station, but also paid attention to the above problems. But in this nearly a month of use, the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO basically solved all these problems.
In fact, I paid attention to its shape before purchasing, after all, in the traditional impression, it seems that everyone has chosen the round, and the square machine design of the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO seems to be an "alternative". But in fact, this shape can better fit the wall, and in the process of use, I found that when it is cleaned to the wall, it can be very tightly adhered to, and even the corners of the wall can be cleaned without leaving any sanitary dead ends.
In terms of passability, Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO also does a very good job, its body thickness is only 95mm, is currently the thinnest intelligent double-disc sweeping robot, and the body width is only 320mm, so some low furniture under and narrow areas, it can be cleaned.
Through actual tests, it can be seen that in the small space formed by sofas, coffee tables and stool legs, the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO can easily enter, and the reliability is still very high.
It is not difficult to see from the performance of the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO in these complex spaces that it is quite excellent for path planning and obstacle recognition. At the hardware level, it is equipped with self-developed hybrid solid-state lidar, and the recognition accuracy has reached the level of unmanned lidar; At the software level, with the blessing of AIVI 3D 2.0 algorithm, it can not only accurately identify and intelligently avoid obstacles, but also learn and iterate. In daily use, I can clearly feel that its obstacle avoidance level is higher than the sweeper I have used before, and it will not collide in complex scenes like the picture, and it can easily shuttle through it.
Another more surprising is its obstacle crossing performance, the official claim is that the height of 22mm can pass smoothly, in the actual test I chose an 11mm high threshold and 20mm obstacles, as can be seen from the following GIF, in this case, Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO can easily get up and down.
For users who have carpets at home, the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO will definitely make your eyes shine, because it not only has the industry's strongest 15mm mop lift height, but it also intelligently recognizes the floor material, and will automatically lift when entering the carpet area. It is very accurate to identify, and through the GIF, you can see that the mop that was originally rolling will automatically lift after entering the carpet area and stop rolling to prevent the carpet from getting wet.
In daily use, I prefer the mode of sweeping and dragging, basically once a day can maintain the floor hygiene at home very well. In order to visualize its cleaning ability, I also designed several tests, starting with the simpler cola and tea stains, which are not very adherent, and the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO can easily handle it.
Then the test was upgraded to a soy sauce with strong adhesion and dark color, which was also able to cope with it easily.
Finally, the large solid particles of dog food were tested, and with the super suction power of 8000Pa and excellent air duct design, this part of the test was also successfully passed. From these tests, it can be seen that the performance of the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO is enough to cope with most daily scenarios.
【New interaction, bring immersive intelligent experience】
I believe that everyone has encountered such a scene in the use of sweepers, such as we have just finished eating at the dining table, and want to let the sweeper come to clean, most of the sweepers that support modeling can only command it to clean the entire restaurant, but in fact, often at this time we only need to clean around the table.
The Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO supports this function well, by mixing solid-state lidar and intelligent algorithms, it can not only model the room, but also model the furniture and identify the name. In the APP, we can easily specify it to complete the cleaning of certain areas and even near a few furniture, to meet the user's personalized needs to the greatest extent, and I myself usually like this function.
Some friends may feel that the above operation is too cumbersome and difficult for the elderly at home to master. In fact, there is an easier way, directly through voice control. MEASURED IN PRACTICE, THE YIKO VOICE 2.0 RECOGNITION ACCURACY AND ACCURACY OF COBOS DEEBOT X2 PRO ARE VERY HIGH, AND IT ALSO SUPPORTS FUZZY VOICE, SUCH AS THE SCENARIO IN THE ABOVE EXAMPLE, WHICH CAN BE DONE BY COMMANDS SUCH AS "CLEANING THE AREA NEAR THE DINING TABLE", WHICH IS NOT PARTICULARLY SIMPLE.
During this period of use, most of the operations I controlled by voice, and I didn't feel "artificial intellectual disability" at all. And it also supports Sichuanese and Cantonese, and friends from these two regions can talk about their experience in the comment area.
In addition, in use, its video butler real-time cruise function is also more interesting. In the APP, you can freely control the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO, and the starlight 960P camera is combined with the HDR function, and the overall picture quality performance is quite good. I never thought that the sweeping robot could actually "look after the nursing home", which is indeed quite interesting.
[Flagship bucket machine, this is the gold medal performance]
As the latest flagship product released by Cobos, its performance completely changed my perception. The blessing of the decathlon base station makes it extremely convenient to use, and the small base station volume allows it to integrate into various environments; The square fuselage is equipped with an ultra-thin thickness and ultra-narrow body, and through the hybrid solid-state lidar blessing and AI intelligent algorithm, it has super obstacle avoidance ability, and can easily enter various narrow spaces to eliminate sanitary dead ends; Super suction power of 8000Pa, the dust on the ground can be swept away.
Judging from the use of nearly a month, the Cobos DEEBOT X2 PRO is definitely the leader in the entire industry, and its emergence has solved many problems in the process of using sweepers in the past, which is indeed more worry-free for me. It is indeed a good choice for friends who have the same needs.
