LG Roboking Square VR6340LV

I bought the lg roboking vacuum several years ago and it’s still going great – I bought the lg roboking vacuum several years ago and it’s still going great. Never had any problems with it at all. It has served me well. It does a great job of cleaning up. I can go out and leave it to do the cleaning. When I arrived home it has finished and taken itself back to the charging station.  Show details ·  1

Can'l live without it – I am so much happier since I have this robot. I was sceptic at first, however it exceded my expectations. We have beautiful floor boards and every morning I saw the dust on it. Stressful !!! We also have rugs, some quite thin, and no problems with the robot. It even vacuums under the beds and under the couch. If I tell you that the floorboard… Read more ·  2

shirting boards are a bit raised (this being an old house renovated) and the vacuum with his whiskers cleans that tiny space, same with the furniture legs you will understand why I am so appreciative of it.

Indeed it does not like the cables, the pieces of paper on the floor and shoes all over the house...and this is good; everyone in the household is much tidier now. Because they know: the robot breaks, they have to pick up the big vacuum cleaner from downstairs, untangle the cable, plug it in and make sure they do not hit the floorboard skirting/furniture and then unplug the cable and take it downstairs. Halleluiah!! I should have bought it years ago. In response to the other reviews: we make sure we close the doors towards the garden. I seen the robot trying to go into the cabinet so the door frame will not stop it. No drama with the stairs either. And it finds his home although is not placed with 180 degree clearance as recommended. I love it, I could not leave without it anymore! Thank you to all the people that contributed to making this robot.

Very pleased with price, quiet vacuum that does a fine job on timber and carpet. We have two cats, s – We checked out the other product reviews and found this to be one of the best. We own cats, so I was vacuuming every day, now it does it for me. I don't mind moving a couple chairs or moving the vacuum when it gets stuck under a low cupboard. V pleased with this product.

inefficient cleaning patterns – My partner purchased this unit claiming what a time saver it would be. While this unit "eventually" cleans the floor, and suction and noise are ok, it has mind bogglingly inefficient cleaning patterns. I've seen first hand the ridiculous way this unit & I'm sure others go about their work. This will cause a significantly shorter life span… Read more

for the product, causing undue wear as it goes over the same areas while missing others completely and really needs to be sorted.

Also I have come home on multiple occasions to find it stuck somewhere with a dead battery and a job half done

Lol, I just had to rescue it again.

Being that this is an LG unit, I'm figuring its a better than average product, for $700 or so it really needs to be a more effective product.

I work in an industry where efficiency is paramount, on hardwood floors, for my money, I`d rather do it my self with a cheap vac from Godfreys and know its done right the first time.

Sorry LG, FAIL

great little vacuum – Vacuum is extremely quiet. Doesnt bang into walls or objects. Very easy to maneurvre. I used it on my wooden floors every day. Only problem i have is it doesnt draw pet hair into the canister it just keeps spinning it around on the brush. Otherwise im very happy with it.

Poor design – Changed my previous rating and comments. This machine will eventually die, for me anyway. After 5 months it stopped vacuuming down a straight path, it would start to veer off randomly as if it was avoiding an invisible object. I contacted LG and they sent me to a service centre, the technician fixed the problem. I asked what the problem was, he… Read more

said it was because bumpers of the machine were scratched up which might have messed with the sensors. They replaced all the bumpers.

Here lies the problem; the scratches on the bumper are bound to appear because the sensors are not 100% accurate. The machine will bump into chair legs and protruding walls. When it does, it will not reverse but instead rotate on the spot to move in a different direction. As it turns, it leaves scratch marks on the bumpers. Over time, as I noticed with mine, you'll end up with all four corners filled with scuffs/scratches.

The solution would be to take it back to the service centre whenever navigation problems occur again but what happens when the warranty period is up? I called LG about this issue and they said there is nothing they can do in terms of a remedy because as it stands my vacuum is functioning normally. I have to wait til it malfunctions again and have a technician perform an assessment. So here I am with this robot waiting for it to malfunction again.

Faulty product. Poor After Sales Service – Product worked well for first 4 weeks. Then stopped moving properly - now cleans about 3 square metres then returns to docking station. No longer goes forward on manual mode. Took it back to Good Guys -fobbed off, told to ring LG. Rang LG on the 7 day number and was given a reference number then told to ring local service place. If they are… Read more

unable to fix, then I can take it in for repair but advised I may need to pay. In summary poor quality and poor service.

Feels great to have a robot! – It is SO exciting to have a robot helping me with the cleaning. Roboking (or Gordon, as I've named him) does a great job of vacuuming. He picks up all the dirt, is not too noisy, and even talks to me to tell me what is happening. He has a HEPA filter and a sensor to stop him bumping into things. He can't be left unsupervised- due to… Read more

his whirly brushes on the front. They brush the dirt into the path of the vac, but they get tangled up in my curtains or any loose cords or wires. He has also gotten stuck in tight spots. But I just fold my washing or potter around while he's vacuuming, then I'm on hand to help if he has run into trouble (in the form of speaker wire).

Lastly, he seems to get a bit confused about where he's been and does some rooms twice. This is not a problem cos he eventually goes everywhere. Our small house is done in less than an hour and my floors have never looked this consistently clean (we have wood/tiles).

Enjoy!

Life changing – I have a back injury and require surgery but until then I have an issue with vacuuming the house. I brought this robot after reading reviews to allow me to reduce the use of the upright vacuum. I cant speak highly enough of it. Amazing cleaning ability and though it did get stuck a couple of time, by fencing off that area it happily cleans the… Read more

large area left. I would recommend this vacuum for anyone that needs a vacuum that also picks up pet hair. And I love the voice.
