On the front of the Kyvol E20, there’s the bumper (it surrounds the device up to 180 degrees) which has some built-in infrared sensors and, next to the bumper, there are a couple of additional IR sensors and air outlets. The LEDs will get solid orange on low battery and will flash red when the battery is critically low. There is also a WiFi LED which, along with the button LED, will flash orange while the robot vacuum cleaner is charging and will become solid blue after it’s fully charged. As you can see, there are no Lidar sensors or anything of the sorts at the top, but a single round button that you can press to return the device to its docking station or power it on (start the cleaning process).
Indeed, at its 12.6 x 2.8 inches (or 32.0 x 7.2 cm), the robot vacuum cleaner has enough of a low profile to easily go underneath the furniture. And yes, the case is round as every other robot vacuum cleaner available, but the E20 does have an advantage that most other devices don’t: it’s not very tall. The Kyvol Cybovac E20 sports a fairly minimalist design, featuring a plastic case covered by a black matte finish, with the exception of the top which is covered by actual glass (so, it is a bit of a fingerprint magnet). Even so, The E20 will offer the possibility to create schedules, to set no-go zones (using magnetic bands) and it can return to base when the battery gets low, so let’s check it out and see if it’s a good option when compared to its competitors. I know that the Kyvol E20 may not take you as close to the fully autonomous house cleaning ideal as other, far more expensive devices (such as the Lydsto R1), but it should be more than suitable for a smaller house where multi-level mapping, a mop mode or any other advanced feature may not be necessary. The device also has a fairly good suction power (2000Pa) – worry not because the design of the brushes has often been deemed a more powerful factor for a good cleaning – and it does have a 3200mAh battery which should ensure more than two hours of cleaning time. Sure enough, the Kyvol E20 does not use Lidar to navigate the house, but a simple combination of IR sensors (cliff sensors to detect stairs, bump sensors are all there).
And that’s mostly in regards to the WiFi capabilities along with the mobile app support, while everything else is in line with today’s expectations from a reliable, yet inexpensive robot vacuum cleaner.
