If you are looking to buy a robot vacuum, you should take a look at what Samsung has to offer with its POWERbot VR7000. Here’s why.

POWERbot VR7000 is slim

The new POWERbot VR7000 is the youngest brother in the Samsung robot vacuum family. Announced today at the Samsung SEA Forum 2017, the POWERbot VR7000 stands at a height of 97mm, which is 28 percent slimmer than its other brothers. This means that it can cover areas where you could have missed out at times when sweeping the floor, such as under your beds or other furniture. This is extremely useful for people who have difficulty bending down to sweep or vacuum in between those gaps.

POWERbot VR7000 removes irritating trapped hair

Consumers will be pleased to know that the POWERbot VR7000 has a Self-Cleaning Brush System. This unique function helps to reduce the hair and dust that are normally trapped in the bristles. When vacuuming, the VR7000 automatically “collect debris in the centre of the brush, facilitating easier transfer into the dustbin and thereby cutting down on regular maintenance,” according to the press release.

POWERbot VR7000 detects surfaces and adapts to them

Another nifty function that the POWERbot VR7000 has is its Intelligent Power Control Feature, which allows optimisation of its cleaning functions according to the type of surface it is on or will be on. For example, when it detects that it will be going onto a carpet or rug, the motor automatically “generates more suction power to clean dirt and dust.” This could be the best selling point of the product since many of the homeowners we know love to have a carpet at home but the thought of cleaning it puts them off.

POWERbot VR7000 can be activated using your phone

Using the Samsung Smart Home app, users of the POWERbot VR7000 can easily activate or deactivate the machine and schedule cleaning times with your smartphone. Imagine waking up on a Sunday morning and the floor is already swept. Oh… Samsung.

POWERbot VR7000 is hungry to take in maximum dirt

Like many other robot vacuums, the POWERbot VR7000 can clean near the edges of the wall. The difference is that it does it a lot better thanks to the Edge Clean Master feature. The VR7000 can go within 15mm of the wall and with its 288mm brush, it can easily pick up dust and hair when it is near the wall. This machine also has an Auto Shutter feature. This means that it will automatically drop down a barrier that can sweep up more dust near the edges.

Conclusion

The POWERbot VR7000 is an extremely useful cleaning companion. The automated functions are very handy and they are designed with consumers in mind. We believe that it is worth the investment if you are in the market to look for a robot vacuum cleaner.

The POWERbot VR7000 should be out in the market later this month and it could cost around S$1,300.
