We were happy with the cleaning the machine provided. Unfortunately we needed spare parts for the Lulu tower. The supplier, Robot MY Life tooks weeks, after numerous follow ups, to reply and then told us we would receive an invoice to order the parts. After 3 more weeks we cut our losses and changed to another brand. Avoid this company the service is non existant!! Show details

Great reliable robot cleaner for our white tiled floor. Navigation and app function well. Lulu station keeps the mop clean for a couple of weeks at a time between refill. The dust collection chamber appears small but with its compactor requires emptying every 4 weeks. The mop leaves behind some of the more stubborn stains but the waste tank gives… Read more

a satisfying indication of results. Unfortunately, it has recently stopped operating and so far I have been waiting over a month for a response from customer support after raising multiple tickets and calling the automated phone service. I just want to get the cleaner working again.

Vac was amazing for first 11.5 months. Rust has appeared on the inside of a sensor. Unable to clean. Have contacted customer service but similar to the last two reviews, have had one reply but nothing more. Issue has been going on for a month. Unless receive a response in next few days. Will go to ombudsman. Show details

Poor Customer Service – Avoid If Outside Melbourne – I purchased the Hobot Legee D8, but it stopped working about a month ago. Despite the product being under warranty, I’ve been calling their customer service every day, yet the issue remains unresolved. Instead of providing a real solution, they send multiple troubleshooting emails, one after another, with no results. It’s been a frustrating… Read more

experience, and I’m disappointed in the lack of support.

Additionally, they are based in Melbourne, so if you're located outside of Melbourne, I strongly advise against purchasing. Their support seems inadequate if you’re not local, which only adds to the frustration.

Excellent product – Excellent performance. The Tangle-less function is handy because I have 2 long fur cats - their fur does not get tangled around the roller every single time but is suctioned directly into the waste bin before the rollers hit it. I hused to have to vacuum every day because of the amount of hair from the cats and dirt coming in (since I live on a… Read more

farm, there is always stuff blowing around outside and on shoes). It has made my life so much easier and my floors are always clean. It does a deep clean mopping function which is good to use weekly for high traffic areas. The mapping function is good, it gets better as the unit works, but there's a learning curve in how to get it to work perfectly, like using under-couch as a curtain setting so if your fabric hangs underneath it will still go there. I can't recommend it highly enough, even for first time users. And it's made in Taiwan, not China which is also a plus.

Love love love – I absolutely love my legeee, it saves me so much time. I can go to work and come home to a clean house. Very easy to use and see what areas have been cleaned or not. I have tiles all over and a rug and it does a pretty good job on both surfaces. Show details

False warranty – First twelve months , hobot worked well except need to replace the brush roller every 50 cycles , otherwise the mopping plate would not vibrate to clean. Thus the options would be to use robot as either mop without brush or vacuum brush roller only . More disappointing, was the poor customer service for warranty care. At the 13 month mark, the… Read more

robot started to go backwards . After multiple phone calls , I was provided return postage to return robot for repairs. Two months later, the robot was returned in the same package with the same problem. I have attached the video . The robot was supposedly repaired with change in sensors but the packaging looked remarkable similar to when I sent the machine back for repair. I spent the next month trying to contact the service center on the phone and via email.

I would caution those contemplating this machine to purchase knowing that the supposed 2 year warranty is a false promise and you take your chances with the robot. If it works, it cleans well but has high recurring cost with need to frequently replace brush roller for full functionality.

Hobot D8 + Lulu Tower – Vacuum cleaner vacuums and mops well and is easy to use. Cleans the whole house on one charge and is quiet. Nice that the Lulu tower cleans after mopping. Fast shipping. Very happy with the purchase. Show details

Loved it initially – I loved my leggee the only problem is my dog peed on it and it is not and it has stopped working altogether. I wiped it straight away but it must not be sealed against spill. Please is there anything I can do to get him going again

It gets lost constantly and forgets its maps. If you pause it, it’s loses where it is and then can’t find its way home. It Doesn’t seem smart enough to not crash into walls/objects. Cleaning wands on lulu disintegrate pretty quick. It does vaccum but it’s Not worth the $$. Show details

The unit vacuums to a reasonable standard on both hard floors and carpet. But that's about where the positives end. Unless you fix the charging station to the wall, the unit will knock it and fail to dock. It regularly forgets its own maps and has to be reprogramed. They cannot supply replacement filters or brushes. They will take payment for… Read more

Appliance worked well a few times and then the battery recused to charge. Being covered by warranty I returned the unit to Robot my Life. When the appliance came back, nothing changed and the battery wouldn't charge. I complained and was told they had changed the battery. I assumed there was something wrong with the unit and requested either a… Read more

refund or the delivery of a brand new unit. I returned the appliance one more time to be told they wouldn't replace it with a new one nor process a refund. Their offer was a refurnished unit apparently used as a demonstrator. Considering the appliance only worked a few times I thought I was entitled to a replacement of a brand new unit or the refund of the price paid. So, I cannot recommend this company and I wish I could give them ZERO. stars.

The robot functions Ok on hard surfaces although often fails to find it's way back to charge or fails to identify the current map. On dark carpet it is totally useless and just spins in a circle before reporting it is stuck. I have had several robot vacuum cleaners and this is by far the worst never even cleaning close to the edge. The Lulu… Read more

dock is completely useless with cleaning brushes that disintegrate and apparently no replacement parts available. Spend a bit more and buy a better quality unit.

Initial thoughts after 1 year – Very disappointed. The first machine lasted 6 months and then stopped working. We got very poor service to replace or repair under warranty. Eventually got a replacement shipped to us which was a second hand machine in very poor condition, also packed up after a few months. getting new mops and rollers for the machine also never arrived. Show details

Legee D8 and Lulu Tower makes cleaning easy – Really happy with the Legee D8. I had the D7 previously, and the D8 is a massive improvement. Manages small steps easily, extra large dust compartment. Highly recommend this unit. I have two inside dogs, so running the Legee everyday keeps the house nice a clean. The Lulu tower is also highly recommended, makes everything even easier.

Very pleased with this purchase – The Hobot Legee has an excellent mapping, vacuum and mopping capabilities. We have tiles, linoleum and carpet and it cleans all effectively. It navigates tight spaces and most obstacles. It has more than enough charge to clean our 4 bedroom home in one cycle and the internal bin can cope with several cycles in a high pet hair environment. The Legee washing station cleans the mop pad effectively. Show details

Mind blown - the technology jump from similar offerings 10 years ago is astounding – This unit is amazing. It gets in and around chair legs. It maps the house with accuracy, and covers the area efficiently. It has a cheerful personality which makes us think so much thought was put into its design! It navigates our thick rug no problem, even suspending mopping operations while on the rug. Even when we allowed the dust bin to fill, it still worked efficiently, packing even more dust and dog fur in! Thoroughly recommended.

Hobot Legee D8 and Legee Lulu – I have vinyl planks that are 17 years old. The Hobot Legee D8 does a fantastic job vacuming and moping.The planks look like new flooring. It easily moves between planks and carpet and completes cleaning 3 bedroom home in under 1 hour. The Legee Lulu very efficiently cleans the Hobot. Show details

Hobot Legee D8 robot cleaner review – The Hobot Legee D8 performs exceptionally well on our hard floor (plus a minor carpet areas). The battery can last for the whole house cleaning. With the automatic mop cloth cleaning, it save lot of time. The dust collector is well designed to catch a lot of dust and compress it for better efficiency. We love this machine as the mopping… Read more

performance is very good. I did research robot design and performance before I decided for this model, I can say that I’ve made an excellent choice. Surely this is a very good robot cleaner which I can recommend to have it in your home.

Game changer – I have no words for how the Hobot Legee D8 with Lulu tower have changed my life. A young family with a dog (that sheds) and 2 young children, keeping the floors clean was near impossible.
