   Muy rápido y fácil de configurar. Desde un inicio hace el mapeo y con un tutorial va mostrando lo que puede hacer. Tengo varios artículos de la marca tapo y todo funciona genial.
   Con la prueba que hice hasta los pelos de mis perritas recogió.
   Su tamaño es algo grande pero no tengo problema por eso.

   Other reviewers have rightly praised the RV30’s ease of setup and ease of use.

   The mopping feature does a decent but not great job. The vacuuming works just fine and got rid of the dog hair.

   The first time you activate the RV30, it will map your homes floor area. It may take you more than one attempt to customize the map of your home and to designate areas of tile and carpet. It took me three tries to get this right. Stick with it and be patient. Then lock the map so you don’t use your work. Also, you can create map presets for tile and carpet so that all areas get vacuumed and only the tile areas get mopped.

   Noise isn’t an issue when the RV 30 is running. It’s quiet. The dust-emptying feature (when the vacuum returns to the dock) is noisy but brief, and this feature works well.

   Three years ago, I bought a Dyson robot vacuum. It cost $1,000, and it didn’t have an auto-emptying dock. It never worked well, and Dyson, to its credit, recalled the product after one year and refunded my the entire price including tax.

   The RV30’s hardware and software are well designed and work as promised. It is worth the price.

   I want to add a hint you’ll find helpful: the location of the little brush you can use to clean the main rotating brush. You’ll find the cleaning brush when you open the lid of the Auto-Empty Dock and look on the right.

   There you’ll find the brush sitting in its place on the righthand side.

   The User Manual in the middle of page 1 has a note about ⅔ of the way down from the top of the page: “*One dust bag and one cleaning brush placed inside the dock.”

   As my father used to say, “When in doubt, read the directions again.”

   So far so good. Good at washing but really good great at sucking. Honestly the sucking is so great I’m surprised at how powerful it is. Left me speechless. Washing isn’t bad but definitely will need to refill more often if you have a large living space. But yea my god, sucking is awesome.

   We bought this because we wanted to try a vacuum with LiDAR after being tired of listening to our old I3 roomba constantly bumping into everything. We also wanted to give self-emptying a try, without spending a fortune. We have been extremely pleased with this purchase! This vacuum works well, and the navigation is flawless! It mapped the entire house faster than our old vacuum mapped a single room! The app has better features than our i3 had (though I did find the i3 app a little more intuitive) That said, it really wasn’t that hard to get used to the app for this vacuum.

   The only thing I liked better about the i3 roomba was that it had dual rubber brushes that seemed to do a more thorough cleaning than the single traditional-looking brush that this has. Those dual runner brushes seem to last forever, too, and don’t get hair tangled throughout them. However, this vacuum is so much quicker at cleaning our house, you could have it do multiple passes (an option in the settings). I’ve been using single pass and have been content with how well it cleans, but I just mentioned the i3 dual roller because I do feel that aspect was a more superior design. I suspect roomba has a patent on it because you don’t really see other brands doing that.

   This vacuum seems a little more quiet than the i3 was, and is much quieter when you consider it spends FAR less time bumping into things. It’s very rare that it will touch anything because its LiDAR sensor knows something is there before hitting it.

   The self emptying works beautifully! The charging station/bin briefly is quite loud, sounding like a “normal” non-robot vacuum for around 20-30 seconds. The best part about this is that it’s powerful enough to do a decent job of clearing out the filter, too, so it lasts much longer between cleaning/changes.

   Very last point – Mopping. We don’t use it, and haven’t even tried it. To me, the mopping feature doesn’t seem worthwhile. I felt that way before even deciding to make this purchase, so I don’t feel it’s a reason to take away stars. Honestly, I wish they offered a “mop-less” version that just has more room for vacuumed dirt instead of taking up space for the water dispenser portion. I just feel the mop negates the whole point of a self-emptying vacuum that would end up needing attention to remove the mop pad so it can do its daily carpet cleaning. Also, I’d rather not risk dragging a dirty wet mop over my carpets. I can stick with old-fashioned manual mopping.

   The media could not be loaded.

   Llevo unos cuantos días utilizándola diario. Mantiene el piso muy limpio, sí es recomendable hacer una limpieza profunda (propia) antes de instalar el robot. Pero aseguro mantendrá esa misma limpieza.
   Incluso en alfombra medianamente gruesa no tuvo problema.

   Mi único problema es que carga aproximadamente 3 horas de 20% a 100%
   Y la autonomía es no tan larga considerando los M2 de habitación, de ahí en fuera un buen producto, lo recomiendo, lo compraría de nuevo. Espero sirva.

   Daré seguimiento al rendimiento de batería:)

   Tapo support is horrible – had issues with the device and took them over 2 weeks to say tough luck and that I have to deal with it. Using my 4 year old iRobot vacuum instead.

   My older name brand robovac finally crapped out after about 10 years of use. I had had really good experiences with TAPO smart plugs, light switches, and cameras, so decided to give their vacuum/mop a try.
   It was easy to set up, and after it spent a minute mapping out the space, it went right to work. It cleans well, is easy to schedule, and is MUCH QUIETER than my previous vacuum.
   The battery life is OK, but that is not really a concern. If it runs low during a cleaning, it returns to its base and charges and picks up right where it left off.
   The suction if pretty good. It picks up my dog’s hair, and I have a husky mix, and she had just gone through her spring shedding. If you know, you know, but huskies drop TONS of hair when they shed, and this vacuum gets it up well.
   Honestly, I’d wager this is the best value for the money you’ll be able to find.
   Full disclosure, the first one I was sent was a lemon. It had a repeating error when trying to map the room. After some emails to customer service, they agreed it needed to be replaced. They sent me a new one and a free shipping label to return the old one. It took a little longer than I would want, but overall was not a terribly painful process and I did not have to fight them, I just had to re-explain things a few times, and had to log in to a clunky website to confirm my shipping preference. But everything else I’ve bought from Tapo has worked perfectly straight out of the box, 3 security cameras, a doorbell camera, a deadbolt, and about 30 smart light switches of different types. So I’m not too bothered. Their smart products are consistently as good as any other brand and MUCH less expensive.
