Hi everyone!

I currently have a Neato D7 with a broken brush motor. It's 3 years old, so no more warranty.

Given that Neato is shutting down, I want to buy a new vacuum altogether.

Here's my wishlist:

  • Home Assistant integration (duh)
  • Vacuum + mopping
  • Local control would be cherry on top
  • LIDAR navigation (we run it mostly during the night)
  • Easy to service & reliable (should be easy to service the robot and buy replacement parts)

Any suggestions / recommendations?

Personally I would stay clear of any of those Chinese robot vacuum companies. I am not giving them access to my home via a camera or other sensors.
