One of my all-time favorite vacuums is the Roborock S7. However, there are also plenty of other options on the market to choose from. When it comes to price and convenience, the 360 Smart Life S8 is really a good buy. No one wants undismissable messages constantly on their phone. This is really something that 360 needs to fix. So I ended up turning off notifications to the app and figured that I could always just check the history of the machine within the app if something went wrong. A permanent alert appeared on my phone and I couldn't dismiss it no matter how many times I tried. Lastly, while the cleaning abilities of this vacuum are stupendous, I got really annoyed with the app alerts pretty quickly. Still, it's not necessary to the running of the device and you can easily turn down the volume some or all of the way if you want to. What's worse, if it ever gets stuck and needs you to push the power button to get it going again, that horrible voice responds by saying "Cleaning makes me happy," which makes me feel like I'm some horrible taskmaster to a machine that can't really decide for itself. The voice of the robot has poor sound quality and doesn't sound professionally recorded at all. The app even notifies you when the vacuum gets stuck and asks if you'd like to place no-go zones in those areas. Just remember to clean that mop regularly or it won't be effective.


You can set no-go zones and no-mop zones within the app to prevent it from going place you don't want. The mop clicks into position on the bottom of the vacuum and can easily be pulled off when done. It's more clunky and inconvenient than many other options out there.Īdditionally, this vacuum offers both vacuuming and moping, but you'll need to be around when you want to switch between the two. That means I have to push down the button and pull out the watertank then pull up on the dustbin to detach it as a separate item in order to dump the load every time. Instead of offering a flap on top that opens like a hatch to access the dustbin, this dustbin is attached to the watertank on the back of the device.

But since my home is filled with fur balls I do have to empty the dustbin after every cleaning to keep it running effectively. The 360 S8's suction works very well and doesn't have a problem cleaning up after my fur babies at all. Since I have two very messy cats and a constantly shedding corgi, I have the suction turned up to the max so it can pick up kitty litter, pet fur, and kibble from my floors. There is an option to view a 3D map of your home within the app, but doing this made the app freak out on me and regularly kicked me out until I moved it back to a 2D map. You can also keep an eye on where your vacuum is at any moment by looking at the in-app map. since that's when everyone is out of the house.

I made it so the vacuum runs every weekday morning at 9:30 a.m. Just tap the Toolbox icon on the lower right to access various settings options.
