certain rubber and vinyl compounds react so I guess there is some vinyl in the carpet fibers or backing the wheels are reacting with. (source: https://forums.wyzecam. |

I recently bought both, the Wyze and iHome. I prefer the iHome for the self-clearing vacuum base and mop attachment.
Although, I do notice that it gets stuck when transitioning onto floormats/carpets that are about 1/2inch thick. So I had to set no-go zones.
Ihome has a better and more customizable user interface. Wyze seems to be more "clean" and less prone to errors though.

I've bought 3 of these and they all work great. It is faster than my roomba i6 and the battery lasts longer. It isn't as good in long carpet but does a good job overall. I've had one run on weekdays on a 3000sq foot layout for about 15 months with no issues.
There is also a HomeAssistant integration called `simple_wyze_vac`, it isn't heavily developed but it does allow basic control and monitoring, so that's nice.
I would probably not buy another robot vacuum unless it had the ability to empty itself. Having to empty the bin once a month instead of .. much more often is really a game changer.
edit: Here's a link to the Shark which has self-emptying:

It's $350 down from $480 – If you can afford self-emptying, I think you'll find it well worth it.
Even cheaper...what's the difference?
