The latest Rumba release date review!What is the difference between "Rumba I3", which is the topic of "price and design is groundbreaking"?

Irobot Japan launched a new robot vacuum cleaner "Rumba I3" and "Rumba I3+" on February 19."Rumba I3" is 69,800 yen ( * Irobot official store tax included, all below), and "Rumba i3+" attached to the automatic garbage collection machine "Rumba I3+" is 99,800 yen."Rumba I3" is a breakthrough that it is located in the middle of the standard model and the high -end model, which is a new design that is first adopted as a rumba, and for the first time as a clean -based model.The clean base is attractive, but the conventional model has been a long -awaited model.

On the other hand, there are many people who do not know what they can actually do, do not know what is different from other rumba.This time, I was able to use "Rumba i3+" before the release, so let's review the difference from the conventional model!

The fabric -style gray body blends well with the interior

First of all, the major feature of the "Rumba I3" that you can see is the first fabric gray body adopted as a rumba.It has a design that does not assert too much of its presence, and it is certainly familiar to interiors such as sofas and carpets.The surface is cured, so it is good that dust and fingerprints are difficult to attach.

After all, the simplicity of the clean base is exceptional!

And what's nice is that you can get a set (Rumba i3+) of the "Rumba I3" body and the "Rumba I3+)" Rumba I3 "and the automatic garbage collection machine" Clean Base "at a real price of 99,800 yen.What is convenient for a clean base is that you don't need to throw away the dust in the dust container.When the cleaned body returns to the clean base, the dust in the dust container is automatically discharged and imported into the sealed paper pack in the clean base.Dust containers can collect about 60 days of garbage, so there is no need to throw away trash during that time.

In my home where I have a pet, a lot of garbage accumulates in a dust container in one cleaning.The dust box usually becomes a bun in 3-4 cleaning, and twice in the spring and autumn hair change.My cat is a short -haired species, so this is enough, but if it is a long -haired cat or a dog, the dust box will be full once.

However, thanks to the clean -based, the trash disposal of my home became easier at once.After all, if the clean -based LED lamp turns red in red, just pull out the paper pack and put it in the trash can.The frequency is about once every 60 days, so it is an image that almost forgets that there is a trash.

At the same time, if you use the schedule function that can set a reservation date and time of the cleaning, the cleaning will be completed completely from the start to the trash discard.After all it is exceptional.Even if you don't have a pet, even if you have a lot of family, a large room, and a lot of garbage, a clean base will definitely be useful.

Another thing that is unpleasant to throw away the garbage is that dust dances when throwing away.In that regard, the garbage flow path from the Rumba body to the clean base is sealed, and even small dust does not leak out.Also, when taking out the clean -based paper pack, pulling up the paper pack automatically closed the pack shutter, and the garbage inside did not scatter.It's really nice to have to scatter the pollen that you have been suffering from pollen.

The suction power and suction system are equivalent to the upper model

Next, let's look at what is different from the conventional model from the suction power.If the suction power of the Rumba entry model "Rumba 671" (43,780 yen) is set to 1, the suction power of "Rumba I3" is about 10 times that.This is at the same level as the high -end model "Rumba i7".

In addition, "Rumba i3" is equipped with a "AeroForce 3 -step cleaning system", like the top model "Rumba i7" and the top model "Rumba S9+", and dual action brush made of rubber -made trash with edge cleaning brushes.It floats and sucks fine garbage with a powerful suction power.Dual action brushes have the advantage that hair and pet hair are difficult to entangle, making it easier to maintain.

"Rumba I3" also has a dirt discount technology that is also installed on the upper model.This is a function that carefully cleans a place with a lot of garbage when the sensor is detected and goes back and forth until it becomes beautiful.Especially on the kitchens and carpets, I went back and forth many times, so I could see that dirt detect technology was working.

Know the space and run efficiently

The conventional entry model cleans the room irregularly and fills the blanks in the room, while the Rumba I3 grasped the space from the travel distance with a floor tracking sensor.It moves efficiently in the room with one stroke, and cleans the whole.

A reactive sensor that prevents stiffness under furniture, etc. is a unique and convenient function, and is a new function that is not in the upper model.This means that when the upper part of the bumper in front of the main unit feels pressure, stop further advancing and retreat.When I actually observed it, I was retreating to the appointment in the gap at the very height, so I wouldn't be able to assault in a stuffy gap and get stuck inside.Not all furniture is suitable for Rumba, so it is helpful not to take measures.

Looking at the cleaning history map, I was able to improve my next cleaning

"Rumba I3" is convenient to return to the place where the charge is completed and resume cleaning.In addition, with the dedicated "IROBOT HOME" app, you can use a schedule function to automatically start cleaning on the set day and time, and you can operate the rumba in conjunction with a smart speaker.In addition to this, "Rumba I3" can make a cleaning history map.

I couldn't clean it today because of obstacles such as furniture, and I couldn't enter this space.As a result, it was convenient to be able to improve the furniture arrangement and try not to open the door, so that it could be improved for the next cleaning.

"Rumba I3" was "Pre -Ekorunba" that is just right for the price and function!

Recently, I have been at home for a long time, and the dirt in the house has become noticeable.However, I am busy at home and I don't have much time to clean.In that regard, "Rumba I3" is a design without discomfort, and it is nice to be able to clean while concentrating on work, not as much as the driving sound.

In addition, I am a daily routine to walk at a fixed time every morning, but it is convenient to use the schedule function to move "Rumba I3" in such gaps.In addition, thanks to the clean base, I was able to forget the trash, and it became very easy to both physically and mentally.This feeling of liberation that can throw the troublesome housework of cleaning ... I want everyone to taste it.

Looking back on this review, I felt that this "Rumba I3" was generally a very advantageous model, including 98,000 yen with a clean base.It has the same suction power as the upper model, adopts a design and reactive sensor that is not in the upper model, and has excellent driving performance.I didn't feel any functional unsatisfactory.First classes like "Rumba S9+" and "Rumba i7" are impossible, but economy classes like "Rumba E5" and "Rumba 671" are not enough ...It was just a good model.There is no doubt that many people can recommend it.
