This episode reminds me of all the sacrifices my men and I had to make to retake Cyberdyne Square in the 1st Robot Vacuum War. They swarmed us with low end bots until we ran out of ammo. Luckily we found our first recon squad who had already succum to the robots and their ammo. Us Vacuum War Veterans never get the acknowledgment we deserve, after going through such a horrific war.

I have been a Neato fan for close to 10 years. I’ve had 4 of them over these years. Yesterday I moved on and bought a Deebot. I just really got tired of feeling like my old XV were better than the new D4, plus getting stuck everywhere, plus having to run over and over again until it mapped our house. Still a Neato fan, but until they come out with something that can really be matched to some other competitors, I won’t be buying another one so soon.

I purchased a D7 based on your reviews a couple of years ago. It worked fine for a while then began to have connectivity issues, Neato support was very helpful, including and RMA and lots of emails, the issues was in fact with the ISP blocking ports Neato used to connect to the internet. I really like the D shape of the Neato robots, I feel it really does a much better job at cleaning (totally subjective, haven't done tests), but I was really hoping to see an auto empty bin from Neato, this D8 doesn't seem to do anything better than the D7, and why they released a whole new app and have abandoned the old app is beyond me. Thank you for all of your hard working with these reviews, they really are informative!

As an owner of a D7, when I first saw this I was wondering what was new beside the design. Looking at your review the issues that I have with my D7 are also in the D8, so doesn't seem like much have changed really. My D7 Also gets stuck and sometimes loses its idea of where it is in the map, and the continues to bump into a door because it thinkts its the right way. And it will continue to do so again and again and again ... All in all I think there is much better options out there.

Absolutely Nailed it with this review. Babysitting a MUST with the first mapping. (I have the D7). Mirrors to the floor are this vacuums kryptonite. However, We fill the bin almost every run and its a smaller house and even after cleaning lady vacuumed. This vacuum works amazing. I couldn’t imagine a smaller bin size. I would like them to add “Map updating” to my D7 TOO.

@rickytikitavi4101 Жыл бұрын

I Had the Neato D5 for 4 years and I decided to upgrade to Roborock s7 maxV Ultra. Yes, the Neato falls behind in terms of navigation and getting stuck, but in my eyes it's still number 1 in terms of vacuuming ability. I have 4 cats, and there's just no comparison: Neato ends every run with an almost full dust bin, while the Roborock barely picks up half of that. Even after a Roborock vac+mop run, I can still feel some dust on floor if I'm barefoot, which was never my experience with Neato.

Jeez it’s unfortunate they haven’t fixed the pinch traps. Such a simple fix and it’s something that’s seen in their parent company’s robots, Vorwerk. Granted, you’re correct, once you map the house it performs phenomenally

@ComputerStuff 3 жыл бұрын

Neato by far cleans better than most of the robot vacuums - I find its practically superior to Deebot, for example, in cleaning floors. That said the cons you mentioned here with it getting stuck and being "dumb" in freeing itself is a problem ongoing since the release of the Connected series units. Neato boasts its D-shape, but it causes it to get stuck more, cause more damage to trim, furniture, and walls, and they clearly haven't fixed the algorithm that helps the robot get around advanced corners and furniture. All signs point to Neato not fixing this issue (for some reason) so I wouldn't be able to recommend this vacuum myself at this point. And while LIDAR is superior in general navigation, a camera allows for object recognition and avoidance. A combo of the two is really the best move moving forward for robot manufacturers. This D8 is effectively a visual re-design of the D7 but doesn't seem to offer much superiority. It's a shame. Anyway, great video as always - and thank you.

Had a D7 and fortunately, a friend who worked at Neato got if for me at a vastly reduced price. It vacuumed OK, but a lot of "schmutz" from wool carpet stuck in the brush. The Roborock seems a lot smarter and gives less trouble. Mr. Neato was re-homed. It would be interesting to see how well robots clean around things. I recently moved and when I picked up my desk, there was a huge amount of dog hair the robot did not get that was unseen when the desk was in place.

@RobertCone 3 жыл бұрын

Great review. Looks like the D8 has the same problems as my D3's, so I wouldn't expect a software fix to improve its navigation issues since they've been there for years, models, and generations. The one thing that made the D3 much better was buying a larger battery for it. It's well worth it, and something that VacuumWars should include in its reviews is the frequency and price of battery replacement. The original D3 battery lasted between 12-18 months before it started giving me issues I realized was related to the battery. Also, Recharge and Resume functionality isn't the same as capacity when you need the vacuum to be finished in time to for you to log in remotely from work and can't have it restarting its cleaning in the middle of a Zoom meeting.

@DillonCleans 3 жыл бұрын

Very interesting machine. I bought my d7 after watching your great review of it a few years ago. I liked it but we always forgot to empty it so it would leave streaks of dirt on the floor. The brushroll also tangles really bad for me. So we replaced it with the shark IQ robot a little over a year ago and we have liked it. It’s not a perfect robot. It does have some issues. But we have liked it for it’s value and auto empty features. We do want to upgrade in the future. But I haven’t seen something super worth it yet.

I don't expect them to fix their navigation issues ever. This has been around since 2019 when I got the D6 and is why I returned it and got another brand. Their app is also inferior to alternatives.

Excellent review as always. My biggest complaint about robots without an external bin to empty itself after each run is that the bin gets full too quickly especially if you have a dog. My neato D4 ‘s bin fills quickly up after doing the kitchen, lounge and small dining area so I hope that Neato releases a robot one day with an external bin system with a Lidar and AI camera..

I just returned the D8 after 2 weeks of babysitting. It cleans really well, it just gets lost and bangs it’s head too many times. I experienced the same as this video, if you lifted it to move it after it got stuck, expect it to get lost. It’s software just isn’t ready. IMO it’s the best high pile carpet cleaner though. I ran the old D85 and it can navigate better.

I am currently in the market for a robot vacuum and I really appreciate your videos and reviews. That being said one brand of vacuum I have not noticed you ever mention or review, I may have just missed it, is Miele. Now, while putting aside the onset performance, the reason I bring it up is that when discussing with more than one vacuum dealer and repair they often bring up that there is only one brand that they have not heard any complaints over and never have to fix, and that is Miele, their performance being top notch, they last for very, very long time with out any problems, and they have great customer support should something get broken (not fail or break down). I know in my experience that my family has had one of their canister vacuums for I believe over 20 years now and it operates basically the same as when my parents got it. Now I know that there is no really good way to test longevity and performance over time so that can't really be part of a review, but as I said before I am currently in the market for a robot vacuum and I know that they have one now and given my confidence in their brand I would really like to know how it compares with other current available models.

The D shape also makes it better with larger debris, like dry beans.. screws etc (stuff that i have laying around here a lot :). The vacuums that have the brush in the center will end up having larger items lodged between the bot and the floor. There is a big benefit in having a large brush in the front.

Sold it after a week.

I have the slightly older D5 and the Floorplan setup and Floorplan related stuff is horrible. I have my unit in my dining room. If a dining room chair is moved 6in from its normal position it doesn't recognize the Floorplan. Also like you said times when I changed furniture I had to redo the entire initial Floorplan process over and it sometimes takes many tries and a lot of babysitting. I wish neato would at least offer a "Floorplan run" that doesn't clean just goes around to map like another robot you reviewed kinda recently does. It's my only gripe of the D5. Based on the fact it's been 3 or 4 years and no improvements to the d5 I personally don't have faith in them to fix the d8 either sadly

I've been running a D7 for a few years now. Seeing same issues as this video.. getting wedged under chairs and tables with a foot rest.. Agree the software is a bit dumb when it gets stuck. Bin fills up way too quickly on carpet.. The most annoying part is that the mapping system rarely ever works.. I have tried many many times relearning the room, making sure furniture is in the same place, trying new positions for the base, cleaning all sensors including the LIDAR.. but it still cannot seem to lock onto the room. Room is a 3m ceiling and approx 45m2. When the D7 comes out, it seems to just scan the room and throw an error.. I have since given up on the automatic feature, which is a shame. I simply start the vacuum manually with one press and it then spins round the room no problem (other than the other under chair wedge). What would massively improve this room lock issue is some better error messages or showing me what part of the room it cannot recognise..

The D8 does get stupidly stuck in the weirdest of places and one would think as a smarter robot it would have a command or programming to recognize those trouble areas and avoid getting stuck. But once I identified those trouble areas I was able to add No-Go zones to keep it out of those areas. But often even though the base is within 10 feet of my Wifi router, it would often loose it's position and ask I to pick it up and bring it to the station, or it would spin around while exclaiming, "I need to find my bearings", but usually after that it's 50/50 if it can go back to the base. The times it can, great, but the times it doesn't, then its the go pickup and baby remedy. But once back at base it seems to reset its lostness and can start fresh like it never got lost. The odd times it would simply skip areas I zoned as clean zones and would have to manually select those areas and send it out again. What I find amusing is the sample pic of the APP screen all videos tend to show is a right side up or aligned with X and Y mapping. But ever since I got mine, the map aligns with true north. But the street i live off, is on a slight angle from true north, so even the map it creates is on an angle, but the no-go zones follow an X and Y axis... I wish I could get their previous line drawn no-go zones instead of standard sizing boxes which are locked to the X/Y axis even though the map is not. The solution according to Neato if it misses areas on the map is to clean the sensors from the underside of the robot. That fixes that problem until they get dirty again, which is weekly or basically after each cleaning.

I recommended the D7 to my aunt before mine started having issues and have had to fix hers for her 2 or 3 times now because it was non functional. It makes me look bad that I recommended it to her whenever it decides to stop working. We both love them when they do what they’re supposed to do.

I used to be a big fan of Neato, I’ve owned 3 and currently Own 2 the D5 and D7. At first they were at the leading edge of features, mainly the no-go zones. Ever since then they have fallen behind big time, and with the new line of robots they haven’t really brought anything notable to the table. On top of that I have had 0 software updates for each robot in the last 3 ish years, along with a repeatable issue where I can’t edit no-go lines on a map on iPhones. I have reached out to support so many times with this issue and each and every time it’s the same, factory reset your robot create a new map and the problem returns. No help after that unfortunately. The robots are however are very reliable. I will definitely not be shopping with Neato again and most likely will go with Roborock.

This sounds like it's having the exact same issues as the D7. The babysitting on the first run is a huge issue for me on the D7. Now we've moved some furniture, and I need to remap my house, but I am dreading the process. Did they fix their issue with Mesh Wifi?

@HalfLifeHalfDead 3 жыл бұрын

You only need to remap the house if you moved the base and the furniture around it. I changed almost all the furniture in the living room ( the base is in the kitchen) and my D7 did not care at all, since it still knew how to get to the living room and just took it from there.

The problem with your "Deep Clean" Test is in that tiny area the robot goes over the same area say 20 times in a normal vacuuming run it MIGHT go over it twice.

I wouldn't be surprised if the AI hasn't been improved since the XV-11. I've got a D5 and it makes all the same dumb errors shown in this video plus others, like simply thinking it must travel through a wall to get to another room rather than go out the way it came in. My XV-11 (10 years old) was at least as intelligent as my D5. The only time I would recommend Neato is when they go on super sale for sub $200, and even then you'll want to get the base model and upgrade the battery and get a spiral beater brush (no bristles to tangle up hair).

This robot is totally OVERPRICED ...but still better than roomba s9 that doesen't have lidar...

@mattdiffey2501 3 жыл бұрын

For me if the Roomba S9 had Lidar it would be the perfect robot vacuum. Problem is with lidar is there are some many components that could fail, I’m just waiting for the lidar belts to give up on my neato’s

My D6 died 2 times in 6 months and replaced by Neato after lots of arguments. The new one was repaired by Neato when it died again after 4-6 moths of use. It is almost 2 years I am using the 2nd one with issues. Neato refused to support any further.

4:49 does the robot charge all the way to 100% or it knows to just charge enough to get the last part of the job done?

Neato app had multi-level support for quite a while now. In fact, that was the primary reason why I bought one back in the day. Did they actually REMOVE it in the new app?

I thought in 2021, a self empty base is a thing. Why would you spend $700 on this Neato when you can get a Shark IQ with self empty base for under $400? My shark IQ is the best Robot so far and I've gone through over 10 robots including a Neato over the years.

My D5 just stopped working after 2 years, the store I bought it from swapped out my D5 for a D8 (basically I got it for $399), Would you consider it a good Vacuum for that price range? I have had nothing but Neato Vac's and while looking over Sharks and Irobots I felt I didnt like these brands, not sure why but I like flat front fella.

@luxlamf 3 жыл бұрын

Update: One week later and I am returning the D8, Will not work properly no matter how many times I call Tech Support. 8 calls and numerous text charts and emails all over a vacuum. Will be looking into a different brand today after owning 2 Neato Vacuums for many years.

@luxlamf 3 жыл бұрын

Update # 2; Neato customer service states that since I was allowed to get a refund on my D5 and then apply that refund to the D8 and only paid a small fee to upgrade (because Best Buy treated me fairly and wants to keep me as a customer apparently, and they offered this without me even asking) unlike Neato, their reply was : "If the store you purchased your extended warranty from you will need to contact them regarding this as Neato Robotics warranty is 12 months. Because you never actually purchased the D8 robot we would not be able to provide you with any warranty as per our terms and conditions. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused. Thank you " This means they do not cover this brand new broken out of the box $700 vacuum because (as they claim) I didn't actually pay for it. "?" Beware if you plan on gifting this to someone etc... This whole experience had the rumblings of a company about to go out of business or be bought up by a larger company etc... I wouldn't give these people $700 or $1, which is too bad I enjoyed my previous Neato vacuums. Best Buy stop behind their return policy and took back this broken vacuum, this is why I always deal with local companies when making such purchases. If I had bought it from Neato I would be boxing up and sending things back and forth.

Soo D3 and D10 are more or less the same robot minus some battery difference and a bit of suction power. That's a shame, I have a D3 and it's a nice robot, but why would I ever upgrade to a D8,9,10?

If you haven’t heard, the company that bought Neato 5 years ago (Vorwerk) is saying they weren’t reaching the "self-defined economic goals". It’s sad to see them go. P.S. they will keep the servers online for at least 5 years. If you want to know more, search up “is neato robotics going out of business?”.
