Samsung JetBot Mop Testing and Results

#sponsored #FreeProduct A simple clean and shine, easy/convenient to use. Amazon Affiliate Product Link: geni.us/RIisn2
You’ll receive the robot mop, two water tanks, a remote control with pair of AAA batteries, a silicone cleaning brush, power adapter, a set of microfiber and heavy-duty mop pads, storage base, and an instruction manual. The robot mop has a plastic body and measures 11.5” wide, 5” across, and sits about 5” high. Across the middle of the body, is a translucent glossy band which houses the unit’s sensors. On the back is the barrel style charging port. On top you’ll find a plastic carrying handle with the power button on one end and remote control receiver on the other. On the bottom of the unit are the attachment brackets for the water tanks.
The remote control can be used to select the cleaning mode and control the robot. The silver play key starts or stops operation, while the directional keys allow for manual navigation. The different cleaning modes available are auto, edge, focus, intensive, infinity pattern, step, and 50 minutes. Before first use, be sure to plug in and charge the unit for several hours until the battery is full. When charging, the power button’s LED will flash yellow if it has low battery. It flashes blue with a medium charge, and changes to solid blue when the battery is full. Note that the unit cannot be powered on or controlled using the remote while plugged in.
The two sets of mop pads are used for different levels of soil. The heavy-duty cotton pads on the right are for tougher cleaning jobs and heavy soils, while the microfiber pads on the left are more for buffing and regular light cleanings. The backs of the pads have a fine felt loops that allow the pads to stick to the Velcro hooks on the bottom of the water tanks. The tanks are thin and flat and can hold about ¼ cup of water each.
When preparing to use the mop, you’ll want to dampen the pads prior to attaching them to the tanks then filling with water. The top of the tanks is translucent, so you can see the water level inside. Note that you should use plain water only and are not supposed to add any soap, detergent, or other cleansers to the tank.
When you press the power button on the unit, it will enter into standby. Then you can press play on the remote (or any of the mode keys) to begin operation. In auto mode, the unit moves in a random path, rotating as it goes, while attempting to cover the entire area it has access to and finding the perimeter of the room. The robot moves quite slowly, rotating as it goes. It doesn’t create a map of your room though and it may go over an area several times.
The remote can be used to switch modes at any time. It will wander until it hits a solid wall or object and then attempt to move along it, frequently bumping into things before changing directions. I found that the unit couldn't get to the kickplate which is recessed under my cabinets since the unit is taller than the space underneath. It also couldn't "see" the cabinets since the sensors were too low. It did however, successfully avoid falling off the step into the laundry room. If the battery is low it will simply just stop operating where it is, leaving you to search and recover the device in order to charge it.
After use, you should remove and empty the tanks to prevent the buildup of mold, mildew, and bacteria. To remove them, hold the tank with one hand while pulling up on the handle and they should pop off easily. Then empty any remaining water in the tanks, remove and wash the pads, and hang dry. There’s also a “handy cleaning” mode that allows you to operate the unit handheld, allowing you to clean other surfaces like countertops, walls, and windows. But you do have to remember not to put the unit down while in ‘handy’ mode because all the sensors will be off, including obstacle and drop sensors. To exit this mode, press the power button twice or the start/stop key on the remote.
Overall, I felt the cleaning power of this robot mop was light to moderate. It picks up dust and light soils fairly well, but doesn’t do a great job with heavier stuck on or sticky messes. The unit isn’t smart though and can’t be controlled via a mobile device or be set to clean on a schedule. There aren’t any virtual walls that can be used with it, so physical barriers are needed if you want to keep it confined to one room or area. It typically runs out of water after 50 minutes, or a bit sooner on intensive mode and can be run for 100 minute total before needing to be charged. Although the unit takes a while to completely clean a room, it can save you time and effort by giving your floors a quick mop or polish. It’s not entirely hands-off though, as you do have to fill/re-fill the tanks and ensure you remove and clean the pads after each use, but that’s still much simpler than traditional mopping.

Looks like more effort than just mopping! :) Thanks for the review

[@Brittany26]

Your videos are so much more thorough and explanatory than Adam's tech reviews. IDKY his pop up first but I scroll past them to watch yours instead. This video was helpful. TYSM.

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Thank you for the compliment😊. I just try and just stick to the facts and make a clear presentation of features and function, so I'm glad that's helpful for folks!

[@glOckcOma]

Was thinking of purchasing this but after watching this video I've changed my mind. Thank you for the thorough review. Thumbs up for you sir.

[@riozflyti]

Just get a MI robot just best with lidar navigation

[@Maris-W]

Excellent review. I just got one and couldn't figure out how to remove the water supply thing. Glad you covered that, too.

[@barbaraparupsky8072]

Great review of the product. Thank you!

[@EvladiFatihHan]

I got one on discount from Amazon, thank you Phil for helping me decide.

[@simoneuwan5651]

Your review really helped me! I almost dismantled my unit looking for the water chambers, LOL! Thank you for your clear and concise review. Really helpful!

[@ReviewedByPhil]

You are welcome!

[@barbaraferron7994]

Can you get a replacement for the charging cord?

[@S7Glock]

@ReviewedByPhil Do you still have this bot? I recently found one 2nd hand, but there is no power adapter. Is there any way you could send me a close up photo of the specs on the input and output label of the adapter? Thanks

thanks!

Good review, vdo is Importance data

good review bro keep up

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Thanks!

[@bubbalexi]

I like this design for it's cleaning ability. It's just too bad it uses "dumb" pathing instead of a more sophisticated algorithm like Irobot's lineup because it could easily outclean them otherwise.

[@go2guy]

I just realized what that brush was for from this video because it is not in the manual.

[@arttel8323]

My robot stops working in the middle of cleaning what am I doing wrong ?

[@mizuhonova]

Do you feel like it just moves the dirt around or does it really clean?

[@chargerwith22s]

Dont buy it, its terrible. You are better off buying a decent robot vac with mopping features.

[@djidrovo1]

Don't get it, I bought this for $99 it was on sale, glad I didn't pay the $300+ this is on reg price. I have a UV light, I tried this and the robot vac, this one just moves dirt around. I would say this cleaned about 40% less than my braava by roomba.

[@unclerico5735]

Isn’t that what a mop does anyways, move dirty around ?

[@barbaraferron7994]

can you put soap on the pads or spray soap on the floor?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Yes, I suppose you can. The manual only says not to load soap into the tanks.

[@CaptData1]

Why do you say the JetBop may not work on "black" floors. We have a marble look black porcelain floor and are looking for a robo mop that won't streak.

[@SparkyGecko]

They have sensors that can detect cliffs and edges so they don't fall off usually. So if your floor is black the camera might mistake the darkness for a drop off.

[@CaptData1]

@@SparkyGecko That's not a problem. My main issue is with streaking.

[@Ours89]

Hello I need a new charger, where can I get a goof replacement?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Hm, you may need to contact Samsung Support for that. I don't see it as a replacement part listed in the store on their website.

[@ReviewedByPhil]

You can also try this adapter: everybot.global/products/everybot-charger-22-5v-1-25a-ac-adapter-for-three-spin-edge-rs300-ts300-robot-mop-cleaner-recharger As apparently the Samsung and Everybot robot mops are identical products.

[@Jon.Edgar.Martin]

Seems like more trouble than it's worth.

[@lewinnerofficial1110]

Hello! I want to cooperate with you, but I can't find your contact information.

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Sure, you can reach out to me at [e-mail]

[@mr.charles5589]

How can it clean the floor without soap?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

🤔 The pads will pick up surface dirt and dust, but I suppose it's more of a rinse and shine. I've found it's not really designed for heavy soils or sticky messes.

[@stbam1965]

Why would you want this if it dont wash under cabinet edges? That's stupid.

[@ReviewedByPhil]

I suppose if your room doesn't have cabinets, like a dining room or living room it would be okay. I agree, it's a huge oversight to make the product, so that it can't reach under cabinet edges!

[@yurieu5872]

I got two of these. We will mop forever, but this little robot wont stay that long in the market.

[@superfluffs6844]

Is using a floor cleaner like pine sol a huge no?

[@yurieu5872]

@@superfluffs6844 you can. But always wash the pads with water and rinse them immediately leaving soap and chemicals in the pad will ruin them

[@user-rw4on7vr7v]

So will you recommend this?

[@superfluffs6844]

@@user-rw4on7vr7v I ended up buying one I love it! It cleans so well!

[@Spawny500]

Looks like a Samsung fail. kudos for trying though. hope to see an improved model

[@RogerRamjetLips]

no intelligent mapping, no scheduling, no virtual barriers, awkward water tanks with low capacities.......seems pretty terrible to be compared with modern offerings from Roborock etc. I am quite surprised Samsung put their name on this (it is after all just a re-badged Everybot Edge).

[@RobertoLyrio]

I didn't expect it to bump that much, it bumps a lot and I don't even have a lot of furniture...

[@m.j.johnson3582]

seems awful, i would not get one

[@chargerwith22s]

Looks TERRIBLE. Thanks for saving me $125

[@poke4424]

Slickdeals?

[@knotheadsfishing]

I tell you what people are getting so lazy these days I'm all about technology but mop ya damn floor people dang

[@rogerbainbridge3431]

Yeah , when you get to be 70 and have bad knees and hips, you have a great time mopping your floors by hand.

[@cliffhaczynski6121]

Have 1600 square feet of tile. The daily robot vacuum has a companion mop. A section of the house a day and it stays pretty clean. The less time behind a mop, the better the quality of your life.

[@RedXTC]

Why is this dude washing the pads in a cooking pan and in the kitchen sink? WTF!

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Relax. It's just a metal bowl, so I can dilute the detergent without filling the sink all the way up. There are two sinks in this house: one in the kitchen and one in the bathroom, and the kitchen sink is bigger.

[@glOckcOma]

Lol first off it's not a "cooking pan", second why not the kitchen sink. What an idiotic comment 🤣 🤣
