This Philips robotic vacuum cleaner has never been cheaper. It can also mop and connects to your phone.

If you are considering purchasing a robotic vacuum cleaner, now might be the right time. The Philips 2000 Series 2-in-1 XU2000/10 from the Dutch manufacturer is currently available for just 4,499 CZK, which represents its lowest price to date (previously, according to Heureka, the best offer consistently stayed at 5,999 CZK).

Vacuums and Mops Simultaneously

The main advantage of this helper is its 2-in-1 function, which combines vacuuming and mopping in one pass. The robot has a suction power of 2,700 Pa, which should handle dust, crumbs, and pet hair. However, compared to some competitors, this is a rather lower value. On a single charge, it can work for up to 130 minutes, which, according to the manufacturer, is sufficient for cleaning an area of 120 m².

Smart Navigation for Thorough Cleaning

Precise navigation is handled by LDS laser technology with 360-degree scanning. The robot thus creates an accurate map of your apartment and systematically cleans all rooms. When its battery runs low, it automatically returns to the charging station, recharges, and continues exactly where it left off. You can control the entire cleaning process via the HomeRun mobile application, which is fully in Czech and allows you to set a schedule, select specific rooms for cleaning, or adjust the order of rooms.

What Do Users Say?

The robotic vacuum cleaner has a rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars on Alza and is recommended by 85% of customers. Users most often praise its effective vacuuming of dog hair, clear application, and quiet operation. “Good for about 5-6 thousand. It works as it should, the application is quite clear, no issues,” writes one satisfied customer. Another appreciates: “It vacuums on its own, but it’s better to move socks and charger cables out of its way. A low threshold is not a problem for it.”

What to Watch Out For

Several shortcomings worth mentioning emerge from the reviews. The robot has only one rotating brush, which sometimes causes crumbs to be flicked aside instead of vacuumed. Mopping functions more like wiping with a wet cloth – it won’t remove dried stains. Several users also point out that the robot only speaks Slovak, not Czech. “After previous robotic vacuum cleaners, this is a truly quality household helper; I just miss Czech among the huge number of voice languages, so a Slovak woman cleans our home,” states one review.

Key Parameters

At the current price of 4,499 CZK, this is an interesting offer for anyone looking for a reliable helper with vacuuming and mopping functions. According to reviews, the robot meets expectations especially for vacuuming, while mopping is more of a supplementary function.

Alternative with Higher Suction Power

If you are looking for an even more powerful model at a similar price, the Xiaomi Robot Vacuum S20 is worth considering, available for 3,899 CZK. This robot offers a solid suction power of 5,000 Pa, which is almost double that of the Philips model. It also features an advanced Y-shaped mopping system that mimics manual mopping, passing over each spot from two directions for more thorough cleaning.

Xiaomi has a rating of 4.7 stars from 124 customers on Alza and is recommended by 90% of users. Like Philips, it lasts 130 minutes on a single charge and uses LDS laser navigation for precise space mapping. Advantages include a larger dustbin with a volume of 0.4 l and compatibility with Alexa and Google Assistant voice assistants. For a price under 4,000 CZK, you get higher suction power and the proven quality of the Xiaomi brand.
