So good vacuum based on the SD community feedback here, but what about this price? How much cheaper can it be?

You returned an amazing vacuum. Sometimes the vacuum disconnects from WiFi due to either ISP issues, router issues or a firmware update. Anyone of those issues is very easy to fix. The first two, you only need to reboot your modem or router. The second issue you only need to reboot your vacuum.
Agreed. Any of my Wyze-wide and internet related issues were solved by changing out my ethernet cables to 8 and upgrading to a WiFi 6 Router/ Modem. I have since bought a second vac for my upstairs. 50+ smart and connected devices was too much for Xfinity equipment to handle. This is a great vac for the money.

Quote from harrekki :
$35 camera is very different than a $200 vacuum. And there's a bunch of people who can't get anyone at customer service to return calls.

As with all wyze products, they just church out devices, and then stop supporting them pretty quickly. It's hard to suggest spending $200 on a single wyze device. Not to mention the bait and switch they pulled on person detection.
I suppose companies have to adapt just like people do and there will always be nay sayers upset with the cost of doing business going up with increased governmental involvement of some type or another.

Re: this vacuum, I was a Robo-vac Virgin, in denial about how much dust and dirt accumulated in my house over the course of a week, and neither I or my wife really liked dragging the upright out more than about once a month. We now have ours running twice a week and the stuff it picks up is just startling.

Aside from occasionally getting wedged beneath a recliner corner on occasion (for which it sends out an alert) we are very pleased with ours. Your mileage may vary.

My experience with Wyze is very different. I am very satisfied with them. And customer service is terrific. With technology most of the issues are user error.
But if you want to use the exact replacement parts for your Wyze robot then you can look for Roborock S4. Those two robots are the same and the replacement parts are identical.
Appreciate knowing this

Understand that the wyze system is glitchy, both on app and device side. It's bad enough that it makes investing anything over $100 in any single device a gamble.

They've lied about availability of features, bait and switched on AI person detection, and stay afloat by leveraging the business on pre-orders that don't show up for 6 months.

The app doesn't really get updates. It gets new device support, but all the same bugs and issues remain, never to be fixed.

If you're looking for cheap gear that you won't be in financial trouble if it breaks, wyze is your company.

If you looking for a cohesive ecosystem that will support a device, as advertised, for more than 2-3 years, wyze isn't your company.

Love mine as well, got it when it was pre-ordered. I have had zero issues with connectivity nor the app. Works great.

I've had mine since January and so far I know I have done 3 updates and most recently last week.

Man, so much rage from people who had bad experiences.

If I'm understanding correctly, a product shipped with some significant bugs, but they seem to be sorted out?

Replacement parts aren't available yet, but they will be?

Not sure about the "human detection" feature that was missing, but apparently that's a huge detail to some and lured people to buy, and constitutes bait and switch?

Since all those big feelings seem a bit silly to me… *At this stage of development and and this price* it seems like a solid option, at least for me. Considering replacing a 5 year old very mediocre iLife vac with this one, but need to check mopping abilities.

Anytime there's a product that needs 10 rep shills to praise it, beware. I really can't believe how many 5 year old accounts with 5 posts and 10-15 rep are popping up, hoping to add rep. on most of the deals posted on SD now.

Returned mine since it always disconnected from wifi. Customer service is lacking as well. But finally got my money back. It was $200 during the pre-buy
Note that jon is including shipping charges. pre-sale was $180 + tax + shipping.

I have more than a few posts so perhaps you'll find me more credible. I've found the vac perfectly suited to my 3600 ft2 house. was a bit lacking on day 1 due to inability to split rooms that were created via AI but that got added 2+ months ago. No issues since then. They added multiple-floor support recently, which is nice for those with a single vac. You do need to relocate the charger for that feature, obviously.

I also have a roomba 960 from late 2018. Wyze's LIDAR is a ridiculously solid improvement. And yes, I realize I'm comparing 2021 tech to 2018 but it also launched at maybe 40% of the price too.

If pressed to find a fault with the wyze vac, it would be their lack of google assistant support. Roomba has it. Wyze should have it too.

I have 3 of these vacuums and they work great. I think 250 is the regular price. It was on sale for 225ish a few weeks ago.
