Available now in our shop: cordless floor mop from Mamibot

The "Flomo Lite" combines vacuuming and mopping and, according to the manufacturer, has been specially developed for cleaning narrow areas in the kitchen and bathroom.
If you have already had experience with electric floor cleaners, you will be familiar with the problem. The design of many appliances leaves a margin when working close to the wall. Mamibot solves this problem with a half-open brush roller.

The brush is therefore only mounted on one axis. This should make blind spots when mopping a thing of the past. The brush head is 25 centimetres wide. This means you can cover less area in one go, but the cleaner is also better at getting into narrow nooks and crannies. Watch this video to find out how the half-open brush works in practice.
The battery-powered appliance has two suction levels «Max» and «Eco». In Eco mode, one battery charge should be enough for 38 minutes and therefore up to 260 square metres. In Max mode, the operating time is reduced to 20 minutes according to the manufacturer.
Dirty water and fresh water are separate
The cordless cleaner uses a familiar concept. You fill a 500 millilitre tank with fresh water. During cleaning, it is sprayed through a nozzle in front of the brush head. The rotating brush scrubs and at the same time the appliance sucks up the dirty water. It then ends up in the tank for the dirty water, which is roughly the same size.
Because the floor only comes into contact with water for a short time, you can also use this type of floor cleaner to mop over laminate or parquet flooring. These appliances are primarily intended for standard hard floors. However, they also work on carpets with a low pile height. I also use my squeegee on the dirt-trapping mats in the entrance area.
Charging station with cleaning function
To recharge the 2600 mAh lithium battery, place the «Flomo Lite» in its charging station. It cleans and dries the brush set. Mamibot specifies a charging time of three to four hours.
