Robotic vacuum cleaner from Alza for 3.5 thousand. It can mop, has decent performance, and can be controlled by mobile.

Are you planning to buy a new robotic vacuum cleaner for under 5 thousand, but don’t know which model to get? We might have a tip for you. The Siguro TURBOVac Navigator has now dropped from 5,999 CZK to 3,499 CZK, which is the lowest price since the January promotions. It supports control via a mobile application, offers relatively high suction power, and can also mop.

Quick summary:
✅ Makes sense if you’re looking for a robotic vacuum cleaner with laser navigation and mopping at a reasonable price and don’t want to pay 8–10 thousand for premium brands.
⚠️ Consider if you have a lot of loose cables or small rugs – the robot won’t be able to handle them.
💡 For 3,499 CZK you get LiDAR navigation, a HEPA 13 filter, and a 3-year warranty – parameters you typically won’t find in competitors at this price.

Why this vacuum cleaner is interesting

The Siguro TURBOVac Navigator targets users who want smart cleaning without manual control but don’t plan to invest in premium brands like Roborock or Ecovacs. Its main advantage is laser navigation (LiDAR), which allows the robot to create an accurate map of the apartment and systematically clean room by room – no random bumping into furniture like with cheaper models using a gyroscope.

The regular price of the vacuum cleaner is 5,999 CZK; before this promotion, it sold for 4,199 CZK. The current 3,499 CZK represents a 41% discount and is the lowest price since January. For its price category, it offers an above-average suction power of 6,000 Pa – for comparison, many competitors at this price have 2,000–4,000 Pa.

Vacuums and mops in one pass

Included in the package is a mopping attachment with a 270ml water tank. The robot can thus vacuum and then mop the floor in one pass. The amount of water dispensed can be regulated in the application – at the lowest setting, you can even use the vacuum cleaner on wooden floors or parquet. The dustbin has a volume of 500 ml, which is sufficient for a standard apartment, but for larger spaces, you will need to empty it more often.

The filtration system includes a HEPA 13 filter, which captures fine dust and allergens – suitable for households with allergy sufferers or pets. The robot automatically recognizes carpets and increases suction power. It can overcome obstacles up to 2 cm high, so it can handle transition strips between rooms.

Battery life and control

The 5,000 mAh battery allows for cleaning up to 253 minutes in silent mode or 128 minutes in powerful mode. This is more than enough for a typical apartment. If the battery runs out during cleaning, the robot automatically returns to the charging dock, recharges, and continues where it left off. A full charge takes 4–5 hours.

Control is done via the Tuya Smart app (Android and iOS), where you can set cleaning for specific rooms, create virtual walls, schedule cleaning times, or regulate water output. The robot communicates in Czech, which you’ll appreciate for status reports and error messages. Noise levels range between 55–70 dB depending on the selected mode.

What users say

On Alza, the vacuum cleaner has a rating of 4.6 out of 5 (16 ratings) and 94% of customers recommend it. The complaint rate is low (1.41%). Users most often praise the price/performance ratio, the accuracy of laser navigation, and Czech communication. One reviewer summarized: “A lot of bang for your buck.” Others appreciate that the robot doesn’t hit obstacles with force but merely touches them lightly and goes around them.

However, there are also reservations. The user manual is concise – some users would appreciate more detailed instructions for programming in the application. The robot has problems with loose cables and small rugs, which it can entangle or move. One user mentions that strong light through French windows can be scanned as another room. And connecting to the application is not entirely intuitive on the first try, according to some.

When it doesn’t make sense

If you have an apartment full of loose cables and small rugs, you will need to hide them before cleaning – otherwise, the robot will get stuck. Similarly, if you need a self-emptying station, this model does not have one, and you will have to empty the dustbin manually. And if you are looking for a truly premium model with advanced AI obstacle detection or mop cleaning, you will have to look into a higher price category.

Verdict: who it’s worth it for

If you are looking for a robotic vacuum cleaner with laser navigation and mopping and don’t want to exceed the 4 thousand mark, the Siguro TURBOVac Navigator for 3,499 CZK is one of the most interesting offers on the Czech market. LiDAR navigation, 6,000 Pa suction power, HEPA 13 filter, and a 3-year warranty – these are parameters you typically won’t find in competitors at this price. Conversely, if you need self-emptying or advanced obstacle detection, consider more expensive alternatives.
