Haier HB-QT36B

The Haier HB-QT36B is a budget-friendly robot vacuum cleaner designed for cleaning all types of smooth floors, as well as carpets and low-pile rugs. It retails for around $90, but you can get it for even less during a special offer, which is a plus. The robot can simultaneously dry clean and wet mop floors with a microfiber cloth, ensuring greater efficiency. Below is a more detailed review covering the key features, design, components, specifications, and functions of the Haier HB-QT36B.

The delivery set includes the following components:

1. Robot vacuum cleaner.
2. Charging base.
3. Power adapter.
4. Remote control.
5. Side brushes.
6. Nozzle for wet cleaning.
7. Microfiber cloth.
8. Cleaning tool.
9. Operating instructions.

In addition, the robot is already equipped with a dust collector with a double filtration system, side brushes, and a battery.

Appearance

The Haier HB-QT36B robot is made of black and gold plastic. Its body is a familiar pill/puck shape, appearing round when viewed from above. We've already reviewed robot vacuum cleaners from this company with a similar design but in a different color. Panda And iLifeThe robot vacuum cleaner's dimensions are 320 x 320 x 85 millimeters. It weighs 3.4 kilograms.

The top of the front panel features a control panel with a clock and five touch buttons. The dust compartment cover, which opens with a single press, takes up most of the space. It bears the brand logo.

The front of the Haier HB-QT36B has a spring-loaded bumper, while the back has exhaust vents and a socket for connecting a network adapter and directly charging the battery from the network.

On the back of the robot vacuum cleaner are the drive wheels, swivel caster, charging contacts, battery compartment, power button, side brushes, and suction channel. A reservoir containing a cleaning cloth, pre-filled with water, is also attached to the bottom.

Technical specifications

The main characteristics of Haier HB-QT36B are summarized in the table:

Type of cleaning	Dry and wet
Power supply	Li-Ion battery
Battery capacity	2000 mAh
Opening hours	90-120 minutes
Charging time	240-300 minutes
Suction power	500-900 Pa
Maximum height of obstacles	15 mm
Dust container volume	310 ml
Water tank capacity	150 ml
Dimensions	320*320*82.5 mm
Weight	3.4 kg
Noise level	75 dB

The Haier HB-QT36B robot vacuum cleaner is equipped with a 2000 mAh lithium-ion battery, allowing it to clean autonomously for one and a half to two hours. Recharging the battery takes approximately four to five hours.

The robot's suction power isn't the strongest, but it's sufficient for daily cleaning of floors and low-pile carpets. The Haier HB-QT36B's operating noise level isn't the quietest, at 75 dB. However, this is still lower than a typical stationary vacuum cleaner, especially considering its budget price.

Functional capabilities

The Haier HB-QT36B's built-in gyroscope, obstacle sensors, and height sensors not only help clean rooms but also analyze the surrounding space, allowing the robot to move freely around the apartment.

The robot vacuum cleaner can perform both dry and wet cleaning simultaneously. There's no need to swap out the dust bin for a water tank; in this model, both can work together. Dry cleaning is accomplished with two purple side brushes that sweep debris toward the suction port. The debris is then directed through a channel into the 310-milliliter dust bin with a dual filtration system, ensuring effective room cleaning, even of dust and allergens. An optional 150-milliliter water tank with a microfiber cloth can be installed on the bottom of the robot vacuum cleaner.

The 28-centimeter wide cleaning nozzle will improve efficiency and save time when cleaning large areas.

Main operating modes of the Haier HB-QT36B robot vacuum cleaner:

1. Planning cleaning.
2. Point (local) mode.
3. Cleaning around the perimeter (edges).
4. Setting up scheduled work.

The vacuum cleaner is controlled using buttons on the body itself, as well as an infrared remote control. Everything here is intuitive and easy to use.

The battery can be charged automatically or, if needed, directly from the power outlet by connecting the power adapter. When the battery level drops below 20%, the LED indicator changes from blue to red, after which the device automatically returns to the docking station.

Maintenance and care of your robot vacuum cleaner shouldn't be a problem either. It's important to empty the dust bin regularly, clean the filters, and keep the wheels and cleaning tools, such as the side brushes, clean. Don't forget to wipe the Haier HB-QT36B's body, and especially the obstacle and height sensors, with a dry cloth.

Advantages and disadvantages

And, as per tradition, at the end of the review we will provide separate lists of the main advantages and disadvantages of the robot vacuum cleaner.

Pros:

1. Low cost.
2. Nice design.
3. Small dimensions.
4. Lithium-ion battery.
5. Automatic charging.
6. Dry + wet cleaning.
7. Remote control.
8. Easy to operate and maintain.
