Viomi vacuum robot and floor mop V2 - Full review [Xiaomify]

[@Gryzounours]

Your reviews are just world class in term of editing.

[@rayrinardo9465]

The suction power on turbo or full-speed is good and eliminates all unglued dirt🌼 less effective than a wheeled vacuum cleaner. At the end of cleaning the floor is clean enough to pass the rag directly without finding any residue.

Great videos man! I can’t imagine a better channel for a Xiaomi fan like myself ❤️❤️❤️

[@oxoConstantinEoxo]

That looks awesome! I think I might be getting it! I can pay such an amount for a bit of luxury of doing almost nothing! I love watching work doing itself hihi

100 percent would recommend buy buy buy. It's amazing. 10 out of 10

[@syedahmadqusoiri3067]

An improvement over the roborock in the mopping function. However I do like my roborock to vacuum while mopping..

[@abkindy]

great video Can you please compare Viomi vacuum V2 vs Mijia Roborock V2 vs Mijia Roborock T6? thanks

[@xgill66]

Hello, I need some help to adjust the water amount whem mopping. How do I do that in the Android Mi Home App?

[@Billcfc911]

I got the Roborock s50 robot (aka. mi smart vacuum cleaner 2) I'm so happy with its performance here are few points that makes me feel even better after seeing this video: 1- battery is much bigger 5200 2-it comes with additional filter & additional mop 3- it can do the same functionality as this robot HOWEVER why I prefer mine as I want to vacuum and mop in the same time while I'm in the office I go back home and the house is clean and smells good "I add detergent to the water". I can also remove the mop and do just vacuuming 4- a bit cheaper by the day I got mine for 370 euros/ 418 $ but I checked it before writing this it dropped 20$ 5-supports Mi Home App out of the box IN ENGLISH

[@ernestkj]

Is it recommended to add detergent to the water tank? I heard it might clog the water outlet!

[@Billcfc911]

@@ernestkj i use detergent always obviously a small amount only. I don't see how liquid will get stuck, when diluted in water. Go for it just keep it clean :)

[@devialkaff1594]

Thanks for your info!

[@hysteray]

Is this better than the Xiaomi roborock 2? A comparison chart would be good.

[@AngeAlexiel]

just got the roborock at a great price and it managed to 95% vacuum and mop the floor in a unused appartement in France , it was full of dust with furnitures, and i have to say , it's like a miracle, these things if u give it a try, of course you still need a regular dyson to have access to spaces to thight... this second gen from Wiomi looks a lot like the last roborock in black too.. i wonder if it's xiaomi behind too ? i'm sure this one will mop the floor even better, but unless you have a really dirty floor , i'm a bit unsure about the fact that u need to change the dust collector for an actual water tank, cos the roborock can mop with it's little water tank and vacuum at the same time .. but at this point in time, do not hesitate... buy one . it's freaking awesome.

[@rommelfcc]

So still no multi floor mapping? Maybe I need to try the company app...

[@3l1ningningvlogs81]

Very nice I really want to buy this vaccum,,,, love it

[@mweso]

@xiamify, 2dB is NOT hardly noticable - volume DOUBLES every 3dB. Other than that, great stuff, as always! Cheers from Poland!

[@xiaomify]

In a way you are correct; I would say that 3dB is double the ratio, or double the power... However, it actually is 10 dB that is commonly perceived as "double the volume" to our ears to be exact. (I can get quite nerdy on it as I used to teach audio engineering ;) ) Bottom line; I think that the difference in loudness (the way I perceived it) between the Roborock and this Viomi vacuum cleaner is around 1 dB at its maximum vacuum strength, and 1dB, or maybe 2 dB, on the lower vacuum strengths. -It's really not that big of a difference when you hear them side-by-side :) Thanks for your comment though ;)

[@timothycheng5101]

Hi Xiaomify, love your reviews. Just checking, after swapping to mopping mode does it have any intelligent sensor to avoid the carpet?

[@lucagiangrande9514]

Is it better than Roborock S50 and/or Roborock S60?

[@PALIOXARAKTIRAS]

where can I find spare parts for viomi v2? I was only able to find replacement side brushes on aliexpress , 6 for 15 euros, which is ridiculously expensive and frustrating because where will I find the rest of the parts?

[@DanielMentz_]

@xiaomify keep making videos, great content, love the video, Please make a video of the Roborock T6 when available

[@SrWolf90]

In my house we have a Conga 3690 absolute (which is actually a viomi V2) and it works really great, the best robot we have had, here in Spain it is very difficult to find the Viomi V2, and very strange, I think the manufacturer Viomi has agreements with Cecotec and that is why here in Spain it is sold as Cecotec.

[@respectableaf9061]

How big does the "starting area" around the charging station need to be? 3ft in each direction or less?

[@fendz00]

dude what happen if this one accidentally vaccum water? can damage the hardware? thanks for reply

[@MrSifaperdire]

i like the separation between the 2 functions, doing both at the sime time like xiaomi s one never convinced me

[@xiaomify]

The Xiaomi Roborock also suggests you first do the vacuum cleaning and do the mopping in a second run... Although, as this one actually keeps it as two separate tasks it's quite smart about it

[@louiswooldrik9588]

Off topic: could you do a review of the Aqara Roller Shade Controller? In the Netherlands many people use roller shades and no curtains. I myself am very interested in this Roller Shade Controller but can't find them online. ( Only can be found in the MiHome app ( add manually - then under Household Security this item can be found )

[@user-ed2od2ft8t]

worked great!

[@RadiaLatief]

is the hepa filter washable?

[@jithinmohan5320]

Can you please review the following functions 1. edge and corner cleaning 2. Required height of an obstacle to clean it's downside( eg under the furnitures) 3. Time to clean a specific area eg 500sq or 1000sq meters. 4. Battery discharge time. 5. Turbo mode noise level in decibels. Thanks.

[@palioxaraktirasmr.7484]

Hello, thanks for your video. I bought the v2 and the first impression is quite good. After it's done cleaning and has return to its base and is fully charged, what should I do? Should I manually power off or just leave it as it is?

[@DanielMentz_]

Dude i hope to get some advice from you, I'd like to buy this vacuum as i am after the mopping function, but, on the Google play store all the feedback is negative about the app for the Robot, people say app isn't working, does yours work with the Xiaomi app yet? Need advice, thanx, big fan of your video's

Great review - but one question, can we connect this with Google Home?

[@user-zx3tx5qn2d]

How can i get the parts of the viomi v2 like hepa filter, main brush etc...? I search to buy it i couldn't find it...

[@AlexNSL]

You can find hepa filters on Amazon, search for Proscenic M7, is the USA variant of this vacum V2. I orderd the 3pcs offer for 15 usd, and they are the same as for V2.

[@Cryptoe420]

Vacuum just arrived, set up on mi home (EU server) works great BUT I can't figure out how to set it to run at a certain time everyday..no automations are possible in mihome, and 'timer' button says not yet available? Thought it would've been most Important tool? Am I missing somethibg.

[@JustifyJustin]

Has it been added yet?

[@melcurtorim]

Cool!! good thing is that it mops.. but how effective is the cleaning??

[@RadiaLatief]

Just an additional dust removing after the vacuum. It won't remove stain etc. Comparable with you mopping the entire house floor in a hurry when you just pass the mop without applying much pressure.

[@nlsagar1823]

[@debur22]

Great video again, maybe you can make a comparing between the Viomi and the Roborock V2 vacuum cleaner. Keep up the good work ✌.

[@xiaomify]

Yes I am thinking of this, but I would probably include the Xiaomi vacuum and maybe even the new Roborock in that as well.. And make a vacuum-cleaner-wars video ;) For now, I have quite a lot of videos lined up and ready to go in the next days / weeks to come.. so stay tuned for those first ;)

[@debur22]

I can wait to 👀 what you will take out soon, btw still waiting for the Aqara announcement ....

[@justjc51]

@@xiaomify If you decide to make this vacuum cleaner wars video I would like to hear if the new brushes for the S60 will work with the S50, and if so are they a worthwhile upgrade from the standard ones that comes with the S50?

[@pawala7]

To be honest, this app UX looks much better than Xiaomi's implementation. I don't understand why Xiaomi likes to bury important features (like suction power) deep in the user interface.

[@glandimfl]

Today.... After testing both Which one would you buy? Viomi or roborock? For what you said. Most of the cons in viomi will be corrected when it enter mi home app. The others cons are: 1 no vacuum while mopping 2 the path it does (as you said it is still pretty good) There are another cons? Pros?

Do you know if the Xiaomi vacuum parts are compatible with Viomi?

[@michaelxz1305]

is Viomi a european xiaomi brand?

[@lorenzoloiacono9891]

Michael Xz “ Xiaomi is our strategic partner and shareholder. Our strategic partnership with Xiaomi gives us access to Xiaomi’s ecosystem users, market and data resources and related support. Meanwhile, our strong research and development capabilities and innovative products and services also enrich Xiaomi’s suite of offerings, resulting in a mutually beneficial relationship between Xiaomi and us.” From the viomi website. Viomi however is an Xiaomi ecosystem brand and it isn’t only an European brand, infact with the Xiaomi Home app we can see that there are several Viomi branded items on the Chinese server and on the European servers (like the Italian one) there are some that on the Chinese servers there are not like the Viomi branded kettle (after re-proposed under MI mark) or this vacuum cleaner. I hope I was clear and sorry for the bad English

[@basdfgwe]

Could you please do a video stating the difference between Xiaomi, viomi, aqara and any other sub brands ... And what works and don't work together. All of these products which are similar from Xiaomi are very confusing.

[@xiaomify]

Yeah I want to do a video about that sometimes soon.. Maybe a series on the channel introducing all the various ecosystem companies like Viomi, Aqara, Yeelight, SmartMi, Yeelight, etc etc... I am very interesting in doing something like this and visiting those companies. That could be really cool :)

[@pekmezpd]

one partially off topic question: I am interested in buying few smart home devices supported by xiaomi ecosystem. A lot of them arent there on aliexpress, and aliexpress resellers are taking good margin if we compare prices of products in china with aliexpress resellers. So is there any option to buy few products on store via mi home app, send them to chinese address (that i will get from package forwarding service) and reship it to europe as one package. If this is possible, please recommend some package forwarding service that will do it. Thank you very much. Best regards

[@shadyffm]

Sending private packages is hell of expensive. my experience says that aliexpress isnt much more expensive. Compare diff. resellers, wait if the product is new etc.

[@antoniskost]

compared to roborock s50 is viomi better or worse?

[@xiaomify]

That is hard to say at this point. I was quite surprised that the Viomi did a really good job as well. I think they're both pretty much on the same level, and differences are marginal. I guess you could point out some pros and cons for either one... Pros for Viomi : • More control over mopping feature (and 3 water-amount levels) • Very accurate spot-cleaning • European Plug Cons for Viomi: • Only works with Viomi Robot APP (but should be added to Mi Home APP soon) • No automation rules (but also should come with Mi Home APP next month, I suppose) • Slightly different path planning (It does edge around in the first 'section', then zigzags through that, does edge around next section, etc...) Pros for Xiaomi/Roborock: • The path-planning does edge clean first, then zigzags all spots in between, and ends it with an edge clean again (this is slightly different on the Viomi, but I have to say that both do a pretty good job tbh...) • Automation rules in Mi Home APP + Voice control

[@draganpavic6434]

so roborock s50 is still better buy according to its price (50 euro cheaper)

[@barygol]

And Roborock T6 is already on its way, an improvement over the S5.

[@cannesahs]

roborock S5 does not edge clean section after zigzag. only at start of section.

[@justjc51]

@@draganpavic6434 The big question seems to be if the vacuuming or the mopping has the highest priority for you. The Roborock is slightly ahead in vacuuming, with better planning and in the new T6 version the ability to recognize rooms, while the Viomi is better at mopping having a much larger water tank that however replaces the dustbin so it cannot like the Roborock vacuum and mop at one go.

[@toematoe]

Given that the app allows you to map out areas that you do not want to mop/sweep. I think that's generally something you need to do once and forgets about it in its lifetime.

[@Billcfc911]

yes it will you need to select specific areas to mop (not carpet area)

[@bjornbrandt6943]

Is it really once? For Roborock I have to map the zone every single time when not doing the same zone. For example I zone the floor area without carpet, then next day I need another area. Now when I want to mop again I need to zone again... That is really annoying.

Roborock T6 makes this a joke...

This still has a significantly larger water tank, and the ability to climb slightly higher obstacles when mopping because its water tank does not sit underneath the robot vacuum. Also the Viomi is priced as the S5 series, while the T6 currently costs around 25 % more than the other two models. The best deal right now is clearly the Roborock S5 series, unless you need to mop a larger place where the bigger water tank of the Viomi v2 makes sense.
