A new invention of the Japanese - a radio-controlled mop

Daily cleaning takes energy! Sometimes it’s simply impossible to look at a rag, a bucket and a vacuum cleaner, and the dust keeps accumulating and accumulating, as if no one had ever cleaned it! Help came from where we didn’t expect it – from the Japanese islands. The Japanese have offered a panacea for everyone who is too lazy to wash the floors - this is a radio-controlled mop. Will it really save humanity from cleaning up?

What does it look like

Kyoso is one of the manufacturers of radio-controlled toys. They actively promote their products, surprising with an unexpected approach to everyday things. To help housewives, the resourceful Japanese came up with the idea of ​​​​screwing the chassis from a radio-controlled car to a long-haired brush. The kit includes a joystick that launches the brush. Now you can clean up dust without leaving your favorite sofa! The remote control will send the miracle thing on a journey around the apartment, and its compact dimensions will allow it to climb under a bed or sofa with high legs. A mop will help sweep away all the debris into a pile.

I found another interesting radio-controlled thing - a trash can. Perhaps the dream of many people has come true! You don’t need to get up from your seat to throw away the pile of accumulated bits and candy wrappers; you just need to deftly operate the joystick, and the trash can will arrive on its own.

Advantages and disadvantages of the invention

What can a miracle mop do?

1. It sweeps away dust well and can eliminate accidentally spilled water.
2. Its relatively small size will allow it to maneuver in various situations and climb under furniture.
3. Cleaning will take place without wasting energy. The owner of the mop can simply lie there and control it.
4. The price is several times different from the cost of a robot vacuum cleaner! If we compare, it turns out that instead of one robot of average parameters, you can buy about 4-5 Japanese radio-controlled mops!

Everything seems to be wonderful: you lie there, and they clean up for you! But many questions immediately arise to which there are disappointing answers:

1. Compactness will increase cleaning time. In my opinion, an ordinary large mop will remove dirt faster. Although, perhaps, over time we will reach the heights of this art and begin to clean at the level of a master.
2. You need to learn how to use the remote control. It resembles a joystick from game consoles. If manual cleaning is familiar to each of us since childhood, then we need to sit and figure it out so as not to complicate life by scattering garbage throughout the apartment instead of cleaning.
3. In terms of ease of use, they are much inferior to a robot vacuum cleaner, occupying an incomprehensible position somewhere between a broom and the latest technology.
4. I’ll disappoint you a little: you still have to get up from the couch! Garbage does not fall into the bin by itself, even if it also has automatic wheels. After each cleaning, the bristles of the brush should be washed and dried well so that pathogenic bacteria do not accumulate there and mold does not grow.

If you have a cat that actively moves around the house, you can buy him special slippers with long pile to remove dust. He will handle the cleaning much faster!

Should I buy or not? That is the question

Japanese inventors have long thundered throughout the world with their absurd genius.In their language there is even such a concept as “chindogu”, meaning a useful, but deliberately ridiculous invention. A radio-controlled mop is one of those new products that people don’t understand. For example, I found a lot on Amazon with a price of $37.45 and only three reviews - all with a touch of slight bewilderment and negativity.

I think one really useful use for a mop like this is to remain a toy and teach kids how to keep things clean. Let the annoying process turn into an exciting game!
