I'm close to buying one but I've got a few questions.
1) The XV14 model doesn't seem to exist on neato's site, so what model is the costco model comparable to?

2) I mentioned this earlier, but because I have a 4 level split and don't want to buy more than one of these bloody things, I was planning on just buying one and moving the vacuum and the base to a different floor each day.. is it a pain to move the base?
3) Now that you guys have had yours for at least a few months has there been any issues with the battery, or does the thing not clean as it originally did or anything along those lines. |
Answers to questions:
1) The colour of mine is the same as the XV-11, but with the pet and allergy upgrade kit off of amazon.ca, I think I have the equivalent of the XV-21 now. I don't really think there is much of a difference between models.
2) We live in a 2 storey. I just take the fully charged vacuum up to the second floor, or down to the basement when they need a cleaning. The vacuum will clean those floors completely and then head back to where I set it down and turn off. Then I carry it back to the base station to charge. Each of my floors are about 800 sq ft and it cleans them no problem.
3) I've only had mine for a month, but it still works great.
Here is a small review:
I've had my Neato XV-14 for about a month now (I bought it when it was $50 off). I ended up also buying the Pet and Allergy kit from amazon.ca for $50 as well. Well worth the investment. The new brush is MUCH quieter than the one it came with, plus it picks up my lab's hair really well. The floor is always clean now.
I would HIGHLY recommend this vacuum to anyone who has a shedding dog. I set it to go every day at 10am, and then empty the dirt bucket when I get home from work. Fantastic little device.
