Functional capabilities

Important! In 2019, an updated Omega, called the iClebo O5, will hit the market. This model features mobile app control, voice assistants, and many other important features. You can read a review of the new product in the article: https://robovac.washerhouse.com/en/obzory/iclebo/robovac-iclebo-o5.html.

Let's return to the iClebo Omega. All of the robot vacuum's functions are described in the user manual included in the basic package. Let's take a look at the iClebo Omega's capabilities.

Powerful turbo motor. To achieve maximum cleaning performance on all types of surfaces, this vacuum cleaner model is equipped with a turbo motor that delivers high suction power while remaining relatively quiet. This motor has a lifespan of approximately ten years.

The iClebo Omega robot vacuum cleaner also features an innovative navigation system. The combination of unique SLAM and NST technologies allows the robot to accurately map rooms, memorizing the locations of objects. Using a camera located on the top panel and more than 35 infrared and optical sensors, the robot easily navigates apartments with two or more rooms. The vacuum cleaner easily recognizes areas it has cleaned and those that remain to be cleaned. It remembers the location of the charging base and returns to it using the shortest route. Omega can also perform two cleaning cycles.

The iClebo Omega robot vacuum cleaner features new sensors—dirtiness and surface detection—that allow it to clean more thoroughly. In heavily soiled areas, as well as when cleaning carpets, the vacuum automatically switches to turbo suction mode.

Thanks to updated sensors and the "improved obstacle detection" technology used in this model, the robot vacuum cleaner is capable of more accurately mapping the room, identifying any obstacles in its path and elevation changes. Incidentally, the iClebo Omega robot can overcome obstacles up to 15 mm high, a remarkable achievement among similar robots.

A special design of the front bumper with a stationary rubber strip along the entire perimeter and built-in mechanical sensors prevents collisions with objects, and in the event of accidental physical contact, does not leave marks on them.

The Aiklebo Omega robot has a five-stage cleaning system:

1. The vacuum cleaner has two side brushes that help collect debris more effectively. And its special "deep corner cleaning" technology allows it to collect up to 96% of debris in corners.
2. The new, improved turbo brush allows the iClebo Omega to achieve excellent cleaning results. Made from modern materials, it features a unique design and powerful suction that directs debris into the dust bin, preventing it from clinging to the brush.
3. The most powerful motor allows you to suck up the finest dust.
4. To reliably retain dust in the dust collector, a new, high-density, pleated antibacterial filter is used.
5. While removing dust, the robot vacuum cleaner can also wet-clean surfaces thanks to its included wet microfiber cloth.

Overview of the main operating modes

The iClebo Omega robot vacuum cleaner cleans in three modes: MAX, local, and automatic:

• During spot cleaning, the vacuum cleaner moves in a circle or spiral, capturing a small area of ​​the surface. This allows for cleaning small, heavily soiled areas.
• In Auto mode, the robot moves around the room in a serpentine pattern, independently choosing its direction and remembering the location of its base. After sweeping the apartment once, the robot vacuum automatically returns to its base to recharge.
• For a more thorough cleaning, the iClebo Omega features a MAX mode, also known as the "Double Snake" mode. With this mode, the vacuum cleaner first cleans a room in parallel lines, then, after turning 90°, begins cleaning the same room in perpendicular lines.

We can add a floor polisher mode to all three modes. The video below clearly demonstrates how this model works:

Operating instructions

To ensure the iClebo Omega robot delivers long-lasting service and high-quality cleaning results, we recommend fully reading the included user manual before using the vacuum cleaner. If for any reason you don't have the manual, you can view or download the iClebo Omega user manual in Russian by following this link: Instructions for the iClebo Omega.

Let's sum it up

However, since the new iClebo O5 has hit the market, buying the outdated Omega isn't a smart idea, especially since the price of both the old and new models is quite high ($360 compared to the $450–$500 promised by the manufacturer). The new iClebo O5 hasn't been released yet and is expensive, while you can buy the same device for 36,000 rubles or less. Xiaomi Mi Roborock Sweep One, with the same functionality and more advanced wet cleaning.

Nevertheless, let us give an overview of the main advantages of a robot vacuum cleaner:

• modern design and convenient dimensions of the case;
• high quality cleaning of floor coverings;
• orientation system and selection of the optimal route;
• availability of three cleaning modes;
• the possibility of using a special nozzle for wet cleaning;
• easy to maintain the body and clean the dust collector;
• the presence of a magnetic limiting tape and a remote control.

The disadvantages of this model of robot vacuum cleaner are as follows:

• Wet cleaning is primitive - you need to wet the cloth yourself and place it on the bottom;
• no programming by days of the week;
• may make an error when working on carpets and sucking in fringe;
• The magnetic tape is inferior to the virtual wall, which is not provided in this model.

Overall, the dry cleaning performance is high, the robot is reliable, and quite functional. Despite its drawbacks, it's one of the best models for the price.

Finally, we recommend viewing the iClebo Omega operating mode tests:
