First of all, its necessary to point out that the design of this device is no different from what we’re used to seeing in this kind of technology. Thus, the people in charge have decided to opt for a circular white housing (With some white details) and a couple of LED lights that indicate when the robot is on. It also has a button to turn it on and off with the use of its remote control.

When we talk about proportions, we talk about 30 x 30 x 7 cm, with this proportions the device is small enough to not be an obstacle when walking and big enough so that we can see it and not kick it without noticing. Also, it has a weight of 2.050 kg.

Different modes and mopping option

This kind of equipment has the need to have multiple cleaning options, that can adapt to the particular circumstances of the customer, such as the material of the floor. Because of this, the Chuwi Ilife V5S comes with 3 different cleaning modes.

These 3 options go by the names “Automatic”, “Spot clean” and “Edge clean”, the first one includes a method of wet cleaning by making use of its 0.3 L water tank, it doesn’t only absorb the dirt, it scrubs it to leave the surface perfectly clean.
