HOBOT-388 Window Cleaning Robot with Ultrasonic water spray is the latest in the series of world renowed robots from HOBOT Technologies, INC.
The HOBOT 388 robot washer is the most current model of the series of window cleaners from HOBOT. The company itself is a little over 10 years old and its main activity is focused on the development and production of household devices for residential or commercial cleaning.
The HOBOT 388 Ultrasonic model (the third-generation model) has in fact one significant difference from its predecessor the 368 version - a micro atomizer on the body, which allows you to activate humidification / steaming of the working surface in automatic or manual mode. The rest of the changes are not so noticeable - the Ultrasonic module and a couple of minor improvements compared to HOBOT-368 models.
The controls are quite simple and the instructions are easy to follow. It is recommended to watch the initial setup video for a better understanding of how to properly operate it. The principle is simple: charge the device, fix the safety cable, and start cleaning. A few nuances: the manual contains instructions on how to wash windows / mirrors using a cleaning agent, but in reality, it is worth saying that for each type of windows / mirrors you will need to choose your own method by trial and error.
The robot has several modes of cleaning, each of them is marked on the remote control. In addition, it can be controlled manually. The automatic mode is very convenient and the sensors clearly define the boundaries of the window for streak and dirt free results.
The HOBOT 388 can be controlled through iphone or android applications, but not necessary. There are two reasons for this: 1. The remote control is much more convenient and faster to operate. 2. The robot itself will not move from window to window as it's required by the user to manually move it.
