Hi everyone!
I currently have a Neato D7 with a broken brush motor. It’s 3 years old, so no more warranty.
Given that Neato is shutting down, I want to buy a new vacuum altogether.
Here’s my wishlist:
- Home Assistant integration (duh)
- Vacuum + mopping
- Local control would be cherry on top
- LIDAR navigation (we run it mostly during the night)
- Easy to service & reliable (should be easy to service the robot and buy replacement parts)
Any suggestions / recommendations?
With valetudo you should be able to accomplish what you’re looking for. They also have a list of supported vacuums my friend owns the Dreamtech Z10 and highly recommends it. I’m waiting for my current Wyze hand me down to kick the can then I plan on picking it up :)
Valetudo looks great! Bit hacky, but I should be able to manage. Also funny to read you’re waiting for an IoT device to give up the ghost in order to buy a better alternative. Sounds familiar! Is that something universal for smart home owners? :D
