It is a feature first introduced on robovacs from companies such as iRobot and Shark, but LG has just unveiled a wireless vacuum cleaner with a charging station that automatically empties the vacuum cleaner basket whenever it is docked, giving you one less excuse to deal with all the chip crumbs that fall to the floor during the daily attempts to get you off the couch.
Despite a strong name, the new LG CordZeroThinQ A9 Kompressor + cordless vacuum cleaner is still a lightweight cordless vacuum cleaner that makes cleaning floors and cleaning up occasional leaks less difficult, but even with two replaceable batteries included, you probably won’t you will be able to clean the floors in a house in one pass. It’s the only compromise with wireless, but at least LG now offers a consolation prize.
The vacuum docking station should make it easier to charge the LG CordZeroThinQ A9 Kompressor + without having to touch a cable, but when docked, the stand sucks up all the dirt and debris from the vacuum bin: a convenience that anyone can handle. of a cloud of dust escaping as it empties Dyson’s cordless vacuum cleaners will appreciate. The dirt is collected in a larger dust bag, which must be either emptied sporadically or completely replaced – LG has not specified whether the system needs a constant supply of fresh bags.
However, what is certain is that the docking station is not exactly small and, despite the marketing materials, you probably do not want it to be visible in your living room. In addition to the dust collection system, it also stores a lot of nozzles and additional cleaning accessories for the wireless vacuum, so that they do not end up disappearing into a utility cabinet or drawer. The LG CordZeroThinQ A9 Kompressor + could also make your floors shine, as it has a built-in water tank and a replaceable Power Mop accessory with a pair of rotating microfiber pads that can be used to mop floors. made of hardwood.
As the stick vacuums go, the LG CordZeroThinQ A9 Kompressor + offers more features and functionality than any of the competitions, but it’s probably why LG hasn’t revealed price details yet. With the charging station, extra battery and cleaning capabilities, this vacuum cleaner will probably come with a price tag that pushes a thousand dollars, but can you really put a price on the fact that you don’t have to empty a trash can every day?
