Your typical vacuum cleaning robot just won’t fly for someone with even a tinge of OCD. They tend to be especially ineffective when it comes to cleaning corners. Until now, that is. Introducing, Vroom – a triangular twist on the autonomous robot vacuum! Like pool vacuums figured out a long time ago, this slight shift in the shape makes a huge difference when it comes to the nooks and crannies.
Its shape makes it more agile and capable of navigating furniture and other household obstacles but it’s especially effective at getting deep into corners where dust bunnies love to hang! Better yet, its overall footprint is smaller than that of other circular and square designs. Its straightforward user interface is located directly on the face of the unit and does a nice job of clearly indicating how much time is left in the cycle, the elapsed time as well as battery life.
