The worst housework I don't want to do is cleaning the floor. It's not fun to wipe the floor with the intention of becoming Cinderella. However, the vacuum cleaner alone is not enough. So, I've been using the floor-wiping robot "Brava His Jet 250" made by iRobot, the male of the cleaning robot world, for a long time.
It is a cute cleaning robot that spits out water and wipes the room in a lawful manner.
There is a high-end model in such a blur budget. "Brava Jet m6". The price at the iRobot store is 76,860 yen (tax included), which is far higher than the 32,868 yen (tax included) of our "Brava Jet 250". That should be it, "Brava Jet m6" seems to be insanely smart.
How smart are you? Will the position of my "Brava Jet 250" be jeopardized? I borrowed the "Brava Jet m6" from the manufacturer and thought about the differences between them and whether they really fit my life. Both had a lot of good points!
By the way, the only cleaning robot that works at home is the "Brava Jet 250". I'm also interested in iRobot's rumba, but since the current living environment is not so large, I think it's okay to clean it with Dyson.

Both blur budgets work without trouble
First of all, from the story of the major premise. Both Braavas clean the floor with the meticulousness that I would never do. The best.
And there is no trouble. It does not fall from the step, and if there is an obstacle, it will stop "Ah". So the walls and home appliances have never got wet.
Moreover, you can set a virtual wall saying "I want you to clean the room, but don't enter here." Avoid cleaning the area around the aibo charge station at my home. (However, the aibo side does not know the circumstances and barks well and moves well, so I lay it down while the basic blur budget is running.)
Both are square, but the sizes are completely different.
How about the appearance?
As you can see at a glance, the "Brava Jet m6" (hereinafter referred to as "m6") is extremely large. 270 x 252 x 90 mm. The maximum operating area is 60 tatami mats. You can clean it with a margin. I'm sorry to have you come to such a small house.
On the other hand, "Brava Jet 250 (hereinafter, 250)" is small. 178 x 170 x 84 mm The maximum operating area is about 12 tatami mats. So, it is suitable for cleaning a small room.
The size of the dedicated pad is also different
Each Blur Budget series is used with its own cleaning pad. In addition, the cleaning pad is divided into "water wipe" and "karabuki". The Blur Budget body identifies the shape of the attached pad and moves in the mode appropriate for that pad. wise. So, the dedicated pad also differs depending on the model.
I arranged the pad for m6 and the pad for 250 side by side. This is a pad for wiping with water.
The price for each is 968 yen (tax included) for 7 pieces for m6. The price for 250 is 968 yen (tax included) for 10 pieces. Since the m6 is so big, the price will be high.
There are disposable pads and washable pads. Initially I bought a washable pad, but I can't forget the convenience of disposables and now I only use disposables.
Continuous use of disposable pads is not recommended, and it is a bit unpleasant to use a damp pad multiple times, so the pad for wet mode is thoroughly "discard the pad once it is used". However, I'm sorry for the dry pad, I use the same one a couple of times repeatedly.
The water tank can be removed from the m6
The water tank can be removed from the m6. It is convenient because you can see how much water is in it. For 250, hold the body itself and pour water. It's a small 250, so you don't have to worry about holding the main body. However, I can't see the inside of the tank. A few years after I bought it, I'm a little worried about what's inside the tank.
m6 properly returns to the "nest"
The m6 has a dock. In other words, after cleaning, you will return to the dock yourself. Let's go!
The 250, on the other hand, does not have a dock. At home, it usually stops in the back of the room after cleaning. Sometimes I'm under the bed. This is cute because it gives you a feeling of "cleaning up". When it's off duty not to clean it, I put it in the bathroom.
It is easier to manage if there is a dock and the point to return is clear like m6.
However, the Blur Budget series requires the work of "attaching and detaching pads" and "supplying water for the next time." In other words, it takes human hands every time. Like Rumba, it's best to go back to the clean base (trash can), throw away the trash, and charge it, but for the Blur Budget series, I don't think I want a nest for anything. It was.
It would be nice to install an m6 dock near the kitchen or washroom. However, since it is necessary to have enough space to install the dock, in my case the living room became the place of m6.
m6 has a will to move
The m6 is equipped with a SLAM camera to map the room. After cleaning the same place twice, the map was completed. wise.
Click here for the movement.
I was instructed to "clean only half of the room" by customization, so I adhered to it and turned back. Also, the way of acceleration is like a living thing. It is also wonderful to shine like the Sky Tree.
250 is like this.
Since the main body is light, I dare to tremble and apply pressure to the floor to clean it. When it hits, it stops with a "haha". The ruggedness is cute.
Convenient to order while you are out on your smartphone!
You can operate it from wherever you are by connecting the m6 to Wi-Fi and registering it in the iRobot app on your smartphone. convenience. Cooperative play such as "Once Roomba has been cleaned, Braava finishes and wipes with water" is also possible. dream!
However, it was difficult for the water wiping mode to be in the situation of "I came up with a water wipe while I was out and asked for water wipe". Because, as explained earlier, you have to put water in the tank and set it. Advance preparation is required.
It was useful to leave the pad in the dry wipe mode, which does not require much preparation, and have the floor wiped quickly.
By the way, m6 is compatible with Alexa and Google Home, but I use my smartphone if I call out.
Both can use a special detergent
There is a detergent exclusively for the blur budget. A slightly nice scent. Before the introduction of this special detergent, I used to spray Utamaro Cleaner on the place where 250 was run. Collaboration is fun, but I use detergent because I want to make it easier.
Pour the detergent into the cap and put it in the tank. It's a simple and nerve-wracking task, so I hope the shape of the cap will be improved.
Conclusion: If you have rumba and the room is big, m6. But 250 is also recommended!
Both are "robots that spray water and wipe it with water", but their targets are different. 250 is convenient if you want to clean one room from time to time, and m6 if you want to clean various rooms.
Both are cute and convenient, so if you absolutely don't want to clean the floor, we recommend welcoming a blur budget to your house.
