UPDATE: It's working! It's working! (At least for now.) I can also get it returned on Amazon, I have one month to do so.ġ) get it repaired by Neato customer support and possibly get the chance of owning a Neato D5 in mint condition (I paid way less than half of price new) - but also risking having it returning from Neato still broken and past the Amazon return date.Ģ) Have it immediately returned on Amazon, arrange for delivery of another unit which can be on same broken state, or in working order but with other issues.ģ) Return it on Amazon and get a refund and forget about Neato.

I've contacted Neato customer support, they can arrange for a repair since I have 90 days of warranty on this product. The bot is in mint condition, the filter and brush have absolutely no signs of dust. I got it from Amazon, it's previously used. Yes, I tried soft and hard resetting it a few times.ĮDIT: Contacted Neato they said it must be sent for repair. I called Neato customer support, they can arrange a repair but I rather avoid that if any of you heard about this issue and have ideas for a fix.
#Neato d5 how to#
The Vileda VR 302 has a dust bin with 500 ml capacity.Does any of you have any idea how to fix it? I suspect it's something to do with the firmware since the Neato doesn't even move or make any noise. Thus, the dust chamber of the D5 needs to be emptied less frequently. Since the collection bin of the Neato Robotics D5 with 700 ml has a larger capacity compared to the Vileda VR 302, it can hold more dirt. Which vacuum motor has the larger collection tank? This is a disadvantage compared to other vacuum robots. Unfortunately, the two devices do not have an integrated mopping function. The models are then called suction-wiping robots. This combines two devices in one and the cleaning performance is significantly increased - not to mention the time saved. In addition to the pure suction function, some vacuum robots also have an integrated wiping function. The Neato Robotics D5 has voice control with Google Assistant, unlike the Vileda VR 302. Unlike the Vileda VR 302, the Neato Robotics D5 can be controlled using Amazon's voice control (Alexa). Many robotic vacuum cleaners can now be controlled by voice assistants, allowing for convenient operation. The Vileda VR 302 does not provide the zone cleaning function. The Neato Robotics D5 provides zone cleaning. The app of the Neato Robotics D5 is called Neato Robotics. Unlike the Vileda VR 302, there is an App for Neato Robotics D5. Some suction robots can then be started conveniently on the go. Adjustable are, for example, premises, maps as well as running times. Numerous vacuum robots can now be programmed and also controlled via apps. The charge time is less for the Neato Robotics D5 with only 4,0 hours than for the VR 302 with 5,0 hours. This has a positive effect on the square meters vacuumed. Of course, a longer battery life means that the robot vacuum cleaner can clean longer at a stretch without having to return to the charging station. The Vileda VR 302 has a battery life of 1,5 hours. The Neato Robotics D5 is ahead in the battery life comparison with 2,0 hours. The height of the Neato Robotics D5 is 9.96 cm. The falcher the device, the better he can drive under furniture, such as cabinets or even the couch and clean there. The Vileda VR 302 performs better here because the vacuum cleaner with 8.5 cm is built flatter. When comparing the Neato Robotics D5 andVileda VR 302, the height of the robot vacuum is very interesting. When it comes to the technical specifications of a robot vacuum cleaner, height is especially important. Thus the Vileda VR 302 is newer from the year 2017. The Neato Robotics D5 was introduced in the year 2016. The products were introduced in two consecutive years.


After all, every year there is new technology. Let's go into the differences in detail.įor the comparison of the two vacuum cleaner robots it is of course the age of the models interesting. The D5 robot vacuum cleaner differs a few points from the Vileda VR 302.
