Automated Vacuum | Gearbest.com

I was in the market for an automated vacuum and was very skeptical until I watched a ton of YouTube reviews.

Then I saw how much a top rated irobot rhomba 980 was going for ~$700/800. No way was I going to pay that much. Then I discovered multiple reviews comparing it to a $300 Chinese Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum. It is only sold in China.

A little more digging led me to gearbest.com. I've never ordered from an overseas retailer so I did yet more research and then used PayPal to pull the trigger.

Vacuum got to Ohio in 10 days. And its performance is phenomenal.

Anyone else use an automated vacuum and/or ever use gearbest?

Xiaomi mi is often called the Apple of china. Known for quality products at an affordable price. I actually have a speaker from them ordered from Gearbest that took about 3 weeks to receive. From the presentation of the packaging to the quality of the product, I would give them 2 thumbs up.
Very good Chinese electronics company that would give Samsung and Apple some competition if they brought their smartphones to the U.S.

I don't know about Gearbest but I can vouch for Xiaomi. I have a bunch of their stuff and it's been nothing but phenomenal. While packaging looks plain, the product itself is very high quality.
