Bobsweep Robotic Vacuum

• Charging Station:  As you can see in the photo above, the charging station is the black component on the floor that I have sitting against the wall. It is best to place the charging station on a hard flat surface, against a wall and around open space. When you plug the adapter on the charger station, the nightlight on the top will turn on showing you that its charging.  The charging station should already be synced with bObi. Just in case it cant seem to find her charging station, that means the charging station is not yet synchronized. To sync; you need to bring bObi close to her charging station, disconnect it from the adaptor { note; keep the adaptor cord out of reach because it can accidentally run it and get tangled. You can place the cord behind the charging station to be safe.} Switch bObi to OFF, and plug the adaptor into the charging station. Use the Syncing Tool to press and hold the Sync button on back of the charging station and turn it back to ON switch.  You will hear a beep sound that indicates the charging station and bObi has been synced.  In case you don’t hear the beep, turn bObi and the charging station to OFF; disconnect the station from the adaptor, wait a few minutes and repeat the process again from the beginning. One of the things I love about bObi is whenever she runs low on batteries, her Juice button will light up & she will automatically start searching for her charging station.  I find that so cool because really, you don’t have to do anything, its so self sufficient {kudos!}        

• Remote Control: Who would’ve thought you can communicate with your floor cleaner through a remote control? The remote control allows you to schedule bObi to clean your house any time of the day you like…she does all this automatically. The remote control also allows you to maneuver and control it’s movement while she is cleaning.  Every time you choose an action on the remote, bObi will beep once notifying you that she got the signal and starts performing the action.  The key features the remote control has is a: signal indicator, UV indicator, speed indicator, current time, scheduled time, all days selection/ schedule reset, UV light, Hi/Bye button, Atop button, select/OK, navigation buttons, speed, Juice button, Go! button, Waffle button, scheduled time indicator and current time indicator. bObi uses a 24 hr clock so it can be programmed to clean at any specific time of day and on as many days of the week as you like..love it! {Note; it will clean on the scheduled time even when her brushes or bin is full or dirty so remember to check its bin and brushes every time before it goes on to its scheduled cleaning time}.

• The Mop:  I’m already fascinated that a floor cleaner can do everything for you automatically but having a floor cleaner that that also mops? Amazing!! bObi can mop the same time as shes sweeping, vacuuming and even disinfecting…wow!  It comes with a mop extension and two mini mop cloths that are microfiber.  These cloths can be used either dry or damp with water or your favorite cleaning product. You can wash the cloths after each use.  Since I have both tile and carpet in my home, I use the mop on my kitchen & entry way, then detach the mop when she goes over carpet.    

• Go! Button: This is the button that you press which activates bObi’s cleaning mode.  Basically, this is where it starts & goes! It will clean your floors until it runs low on batteries {when this happens, the Juice light comes on indicating that its looking for the charging station to recharge itself} 

Note; bObi may detect an issue on the floor and stop. She will beep notifying you that there is a problem with the error sign {Err} flashing on her remote. Different errors have different codes so if this ever happens you just the read the two digit code on the remote display {you can find what the codes represent in your owners manual} bObi’s is equipped with a self check up feature to allow you to test the functionality to it’s various parts. That hasn’t happened to me yet but I just had a small situation where I have a heavy wool rug in my living room {and we know how wool can be, very fuzzy} boBi went over the rug until it stopped & started to beep.   I didn’t see an error code light up but I simply turned it off, picked it up and placed it on the other side of the floor.  I made a self note to myself that I cant have her go over my wool rug again which is fine. If for any reasons you encounter a problem with bObi, you can always contact support@bobsweep.com.

Thanks to bObi, here are my clean floors!! My time was cut in half, I didn’t have to lift nor carry any heavy vacuum machines around, I didn’t have to worry about wrapping the cord so it doesn’t get stuck anywhere. I also didn’t  have to worry about stopping what I’m doing to vaccum on the days that I had scheduled. The best part is, now I don’t have to worry about manually vacuuming the house anymore…yay!!  I simply turn the switch to On. tap bObi to Go! & let it do its thing. My kids absolutely loved watching bObi go from one room to another cleaning the floors as she went.  I even heard them say “oh my Gosh mom, bObi is SO cute!!”

Thank you so much for reading along & letting me share bObi with you!
