Makes life easier and creates time
FC 3 is always ready for immediate use, easy to handle and cleans reliably. The fresh water tank is larger than the dirty water compartment. This keeps FC 3 maneuverable. As soon as cleaning streaks with light foam appear on the floor, this simply means that the dirty water tank must be emptied briefly. This is not time-consuming and is done in no time. The rollers can also be easily removed from the device and cleaned. I am very happy and grateful for this cleaning aid. After picking up the floor I was always KO, now it is no longer an issue. I can only recommend it.
Pro
- Immediately ready for use
- light, needs no power, FC 3 pulls gently like a little dog on a leash
- easy handling
- cleans reliably
- water tank is smaller than the fresh water tank
- can be stowed away easily, takes up hardly any space
Contra
- Water tank is smaller than the fresh water tank, but therefore easier to handle.
Useless and a waste of money
I am really an fan of electrical aids that reduce one's cleaning effort, but this device robbed me of the last nerve!!!! Every 10m2 or so the unit starts foaming at the bottom of the rollers and just smears the floor. To fix this the vacuum has to be cleaned and drained, but again 10m2 later I have the same problem. For me, completely unusable and an absolute misconstruction. Even if you study the water tank, you realize that the construction was probably in 10min closing time ...
Pro
- Fits broken several times in the household garbage
Contra
- Completely unusable
Not recommended!
Instead of the floor you clean this machine. It picks up only very very small crumbs. And also the floor cleaning is not really good. You have to go over my cat's paw prints several times.
Dirt streaks, low cleaning and battery performance
The most annoying thing is the strip of dirty water between the rollers. If you then want to wipe it up, you leave a new strip of dirt a few centimetres next to it. This goes on and on.
Pro
- Easy to operate
- Idea basically good
Contra
- Cleans significantly worse than a normal mop
- It also often leaves a streak of dirty water between the two rollers.
- Difficult to clean and refill with fresh water.
- Too little battery power, enough for about 30-40 square metres, as you have to mop the surfaces several times.
Incomplete delivery
Supplied without power supply unit
Works like a charm for what I need
Depending on what your criteria is, the machine is either brilliant or not what you need. I am satisfied with the machine because I want it for spot cleaning in a small flat. I have hip problems, so I love that I do not have to push and pull hard to clean. This was the problem with my steam cleaner. I also love that it is not heavy and moves smoothly. My biggest complaint is that the dirty water tank is small. You have to be on top of emptying it.
Pro
- self driving
- easy to clean afterwards
- dries quickly
- easy to charge and store
- not heavy
- moves in a variety of angle smoothly
Contra
- noise is noticeable if that is something you are looking at
- slow charge
- will need several charges to do a deep, deep cleaning of a 4.5 room flat
- receptacle for dirty water is small, a full tank of clean water will fill the dirty tank twice
- If you do not empty the dirty water tank, then streaks will start to happen
