The battery should last for two hours, with a nearly three-hour recharge time. The capacity is about 0.7 liters (24 ounces), which is larger than many of the cheaper models out there, which can fall as low as 0.25 liters (8.5 ounces). When we did, it was around two-thirds full. The collection bin needs regular emptying, and with daily vacuuming, the app would remind us to empty it every three or four days. Neato emphasizes the D6’s ability to clean up pet hair and allergens, and the comfort of knowing hard-to-reach areas of the home are kept clean can’t be underestimated if you’re susceptible to dust allergies. It’s also great to know it cleans under the bed and other raised furniture, where we’re not always able (or inclined) to do so. The apartment - a combination of carpets and hardwood flooring - has been kept very clean, with almost no need to vacuum normally. The single, 12-inch roller brush is joined by a side-mounted brush that gets close to the wall, and we haven’t noticed any build up of debris around the edges of a room. One button starts the cleaning routine, and only a few more steps are needed to schedule a cleaning, right down to the time you want the D6 to start. We used voice with Google Home along with the iOS app, and both worked faultlessly. Regardless of your method of control, it’s very easy to do. A daily cleaning routine may be overkill for a one-person home, for example. Which you choose depends on the size of your home and how busy it is. The D6 can be fired up in a few different ways, either manually in the app, using your voice with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, or by scheduling a regular cleaning. The first vacuuming run is exploratory, and the process is straightforward.
Neato d6 vs d7 download#
Place the dock on the floor and put the D6 robot on charge, download the app, connect the robot to Wi-Fi, and that’s it.
Setting up the Botvac D6 should be the model for all smart home products. The charging station shifts over time, caused by the robot shuffling into position. In an ideal world, it would be nice to hide it under something like a couch or in a corner but Neato recommends a few feet of clear space on either side of the base station. The footprint is no larger than the average upright vacuum cleaner but it can’t be hidden away like a standard cleaner. When the robot is docked, it extends about 20-inches away from the wall. Even though the cable is long, the charge station needs to be near a mains outlet. On the top is a circular laser guidance system, which keeps the D6 on track even in the dark. This slimness lets it clean under most couches and beds. The D6 isn’t small, with a footprint of around 13-inches by 13-inches, and rolls around the floor on two chunky wheels and a pair of rollers that hide under a four-inch thick body. The D6 doesn’t have googly-eyes, a Knight Rider-style flashing light, or the a brain the size of a planet. Does it look like a robot? No, not really.
The Botvac D6 continues Neato’s viewed-from-above D-shape design ethos, which helps the robot vacuum in corners and maximizes the space it covers. The Botvac D6 has been taking care of vacuum cleaning in our apartment for a few weeks, and this is what it’s like to live with it. The D6 has all the features of the D7, except without the Zone Cleaning system.
The Neato Botvac D6 Connected robotic vacuum cleaner ($699) was announced in early September, and is a step below the Neato Botvac D7 Connected.
