Robot vacuum cleaner window cleaning robot window cleaner

Our windows are always in need of a clean, but I cannot stand the faff that cleaning them involves. What I do love, though, are techie toys. I’m already on my 4th and the robovacs and have wanted a robot window cleaner for a while. I got close to buying before, but it was one that had a magnet system on the other side of the window pane which I didn’t think would work with thick double-glazed windows. However, I stumbled across this one and when I saw that it uses suction to keep itself attached to the window I was very interested! It’s surprisingly easy to use. Just connect it up, put on the glass and switch it on to turn on the fan / suction. Once you choose what you want to do, and start the unit, it works its way to the top-right of the window frame and then works sideways and down to the bottom-left of the frame. Brilliant! It comes with a safety rope, if you’re using it on high windows (just in case it loses suction) but you don’t need it for normal windows – especially if you’re nearby – as the machine has a built-in battery that will hold it on the glass for 20 minutes if it loses the power connection. It’s currently doing the outside of the windows shown in my pictures and video, and I have complete confidence in it to stay on the glass. It also comes with 6 pairs of microfibre cloths, so you shouldn’t run out of ones to use. I absolutely love this and will be cleaning (well supervising) our windows much more regularly now.

I bought this to clean a window on a Dorma as I cannot reach it by hand, it did the job but will not clean right into the corner edge but I expected this due to the size of the pad.
