Liectroux B3000 Plus
The B3000 Plus model from the Chinese manufacturer Liectroux is designed for both dry cleaning of all types of flooring, including carpets and rugs, and for wet mopping smooth hard floors. This device will help maintain cleanliness in a home or office. It also kills germs and bacteria with a built-in ultraviolet lamp. It's worth noting that this model has a twin—Panda X900 ProIn terms of features and specifications, both robots are virtually identical, with the difference being price. The Liectroux averages $120, while the Panda ranges from $15 to $180. This review of the Liectroux B3000 Plus will allow you to get to know this robot vacuum cleaner better.

Functional capabilities
The Liectroux B3000 Plus robot vacuum cleaner can operate in the following modes during cleaning:
- Automatic: In this mode, the device will clean the entire area until the battery is depleted. The robot vacuum cleaner doesn't create a map of the room; it plots its route based on the current environment.
- Local (spot): used to clean the dirtiest areas of the room, in this mode the Liectroux B3000 Plus moves along a spiral trajectory in a small area, increasing the suction power.
- Perimeter cleaning: the robot vacuum cleaner moves along the walls, thoroughly cleaning debris near baseboards, furniture, and in corners.
- Scheduled operation: the robot starts its work at a pre-programmed time.
To use the Liectroux B3000 Plus for wet mopping, attach the cleaning pad to the bottom of the unit. The reservoir is filled with water, which evenly distributes water through four small holes throughout the cleaning process.
Cleaning the floor under the sofa
Significant advantages include the presence of an ultraviolet lamp for disinfecting the floor surface, as well as a well-thought-out filtration system based on the use of two filters (a 3D filter and a HEPA filter) inside the dust collector.
