Introduction: Robot vacuums have become very popular in recent years, and companies are continuously striving to make them better. Samsung's Jetbot Plus Robot Vacuum is one of the newer products in this market. In this article, we will provide a detailed review of the Jetbot Plus, including its features, benefits, and drawbacks. We will also share our opinions and provide FAQs to help you make an informed decision.

Contents of the Box: When you unbox the Samsung Jetbot Plus Robot Vacuum, you'll find everything you need to get started. You get two spin brushes, one pre-installed on the robot and an extra one. You also get boundary tape, a pre-motor filter, a power cord, two dust bags (one to use right away and one spare), an instruction book, and a quick user guide. Of course, you also get the Samsung Jetbot Plus Robot and the sleek and beautiful-looking Clean Station.

Setting up the Samsung Jetbot Plus Robot Vacuum: Setting up the Jetbot Plus is a breeze. First, plug the Clean Station in and move the robot onto the base. After it fully charges, the light will turn green, and a voice will prompt you to download the Samsung SmartThings app. Once you set up an account and open the app, the Jetbot will pop up and allow you to start the setup process. After the robot completes its first run, it will map out your home with its Lidar sensor. Once complete, you can add no-go zones to keep the robot out of specific areas. You can also adjust the way the robot cleans each room and the suction power, schedule cleaning, manage maps, and view live cleaning reports to understand where your robot is cleaning at any given time.

Navigation: One of the most significant features of the Jetbot Plus is its Lidar sensor. It uses Lidar sensor precision mapping to clean your home more efficiently. The robot did an impressive job creating accurate maps of each room in our test homes and didn't run into any walls or furniture. The Jetbot Plus navigated surprisingly well around chairs and table legs, which was impressive. It does an efficient job of cleaning around objects, thus saving you time and doing a better job of cleaning your home.

Suction Power: The Jetbot Plus has excellent suction power. It did pretty well, removing debris from area rugs and carpets of all sizes, and it identified the surface it's going over, automatically adjusting suction power, which saves battery and cleans homes more efficiently. This is a cool feature, and you can even hear the robot adjusting its power while it navigates over different surfaces.

Brushes and Bins: The 0.4-liter dustbin in the Jetbot is fully washable and easy to clean. The high-efficiency brushes clean carpets and floors while minimizing hair tangles. It uses self-cleaning extractors to grind up hairs and avoid tangling around the brush. This means you spend less time cleaning the brush compared to other robots that had us untangling hair after each cleaning.

Self-empty Cleaning Station: Samsung has done an excellent job designing a cleaning station that looks sleek and minimalist. It looks good wherever you put it, and the Jetbot quickly finds its way back to the station and auto-empties itself in the dust spin. The cleaning station uses dust bags that hold up to two months of debris, which is nice because you can let the robot operate on its own and not worry about emptying the dustbin after each cleaning. The app will inform you when the bag is close to being full and ready to empty, and all you need to do is remove the bag and pop in a new one. While the bags are slightly expensive on Samsung.com, where you'll find five of them for $39.99, they are more cost-effective when bought from Amazon.

Verdict: The Samsung Jetbot Plus is undoubtedly one of the best robot vacuums out in the market right now. It is sleek, powerful, and, considering the suction power, relatively quiet. The navigation is brilliant, and the Samsung SmartThings apps provide you with a host of options to customize your cleaning preferences. The self-emptying cleaning station is also a brilliant addition, which saves you time and hassle. It is a bit pricey, but the features and performance more than justify the cost.
