[2021.02.15. Mon] 입이 트이는 영어 Robotic Vacuum Cleaners

[Brainstorming] vacuum the floor

 

[Speaking] Talk about robotic vacuum clearners

Robotic vacuum cleaners these days are in a different leauge compared to earlier models. They don't hide under the bed and dose off or act unpredictably. In other words, they no longer make owners want to pull their hair out. By syncing them with an app, you can check the start time and get status updates on your phone.

 

Robotic vacuums look like flat cylinders and they are roughly 40cm in diameter. They contain filters and a dust bag. Some of the latest models are equipped with water containers and mop pads. That means they can sweep up the dust and mop up the floor at the same time. As long as you tidy up anything on the floor, they do a passable job of cleaning. 

If you have a robotic vacuum, keeping your home nice and tidy becomes a habit. A tidy home is icing on the cake.
