For me, the latter feature proved useful for a coffee table that has an X-shaped set of legs that run across the floor. While the majority of robot vacuum cleaners make do with wheels, the Dyson 360 Heurist has a pair of tank tracks, designed to propel the robot over obstacles and through longer-pile rugs, for shark cordless example. Most robot vacuum cleaners are short and wide, but Dyson has opted for a taller, narrower design with the 360 Heurist. Here, the vacuum cleaner can squeeze through gaps, such as chair legs, which stop other cleaners, yet the height means that the 360 Heurist can’t always fit underneath furniture.
But do not expect this to deep clean because it does not have the suction power to do so. With the app you can schedule cleaning times, view the area covered the by robot in each cleaning session, and lastly start and stop the robot remotely even when you’re at work as long as you have internet connectivity. It isn’t their first robotic vacuum but this is the first to be available to consumers but very expensive. Shipping via Purolator or Canada Post is free of charge when ordering any new machine from the Dyson Store.
Our latest innovation in cord-free technology delivers superior cleaning performance from floor to ceiling and up to 50x more suction power than the average robotic vacuum. In truth, there have been several tests done on each of these vacuums. With a powerful motor and rotating brushes, the Dyson will vacuum floors and carpets.
The camera navigation is a lot better than expected, and it doesn’t have as much difficulty finding its docking station as previous models did. The 360 Eye, on the other hand, uses tank tracks to be able to traverse any terrain. It does an excellent job on hard floors as well as high pile carpet.
There are certainly Dyson fans out there who will buy a Heurist no matter what. If you cannot abide vacuuming, and only want to do it every couple of weeks to grab any spots a robot might have missed, then perhaps this vacuum is for you. However, at £799.99, this is no small investment, especially given the significant weaknesses with this vacuum. While it scored well in our larger debris pick-up tests, it scored poorly in our finer debris pick-up tests.
If you just look at the specs, you’d think that the Dyson 360 Eye would be the best robotic vacuum available right now. While cleaning power isn’t a question mark, there are some issues with the height, particularly cleaning under furniture. You will notice that you will need to empty the bin quite often when you first run this but after a while , you will need to empty it less because it will help keep your floors clean. Edge cleaning is a bit of a question mark as it won’t hug baseboards tightly as a Roomba would, often times only going within a centimeter or so according to TrustedReviews.
