iLife V5s Plus
Tap a star to rate
The V5s Plus is iLife at its most basic: a combo robot that vacuums and mops in a single pass using a rear-mounted water tank and cloth pad, without any of the dock automation, self-emptying, mop washing, that drives up prices elsewhere in this guide. Navigation relies on simpler sensor-based mapping rather than LiDAR, which is the main trade-off for the price.
It's a slim, quiet robot that works through the Alexa and Google Assistant voice ecosystems and the iLife app for scheduling, and it handles pet hair adequately for a budget combo, though not to the standard of dedicated pet-hair models. Because everything is manual, emptying the bin, refilling the tank, rinsing the pad, running costs are close to nothing beyond the occasional filter or brush. It fits a small household on a tight budget that wants both vacuuming and light mopping from one machine without paying for automation.
