There is about less than an inch that is problematic as the vacuum can’t collect flush with the wall. Cleaning Near Baseboards: We noted, as have some customers, that the XV-21 cannot effectively clean right up to the baseboards of rooms.

It’s not bad as a background noise and you will barely notice it if you are in adjacent rooms, but conversations on the phone will be difficult in the if you are in the same room when it is cleaning. The best way to describe it is like a muffled hair dryer.

The XV-21 lasts pretty dang close to the full 90 minutes, something I rarely see from these types of vacuums. Many robotic vacuums boast of being able to work for up to 90 minutes, but what I have noticed is that they rarely reach 90 minutes. Full 90 Minute Battery Life: 90 minutes is the industry leading standard.Fortunately, this Neato has enough patience to get every last spot (and this is coming from a guy who has a “neat freak” for a wife). Methodical: This particular model seems even better at covering every last square inch of carpet.When I called for information about various features, the staff was more than willing to explain and walk me through the issues I was having. Fortunately, Neato has a really good system in place. Excellent Customer Service: In the cutthroat market of robotic vacuums, good customer service goes a long way.For some reason the newer Roomba’s are not as adept at picking up pet dander. In my testing the XV-21 worked as good – if not better – than the latest Roomba models. The cleaner boasts unique technology that targets pet hair with special brush bristles and a high suction allergy filter. The XV-21 is part of a growing trend in the robotic vacuum market that specifically markets to pet owners and/or people with allergies. Great for Pet Owners: We do own a cat that does shed a bit so we are always eager to see if the “pet allergen reduction” claims actually hold water.
