Nobody seems to mention: How do you empty the dust compartment without stirring up the dust?
My vacuum (Robzone) collects it in plastic box that is to be opened and cleaned out into trashbin with attached brush, the dust inevitably gets airborne.
- 6510 7y agodo it outside or spray water into it
- teraku 7y agoThis. I use a bag free (manual) vacuum and I even though I can manage it without water and not create too much airborne dust, if you just spray water it slightly it will stick to eachother and become big balls.
- rini17 7y agoDoing it outside already. There is also paper hepa filter on it that can't get wet. Even so, not sure if mucking with dirty water is worth it.
- 6510 7y agoThere is also the silly solution: Empty it while holding the nozzle of a vacuum cleaner nearby.
- Yizahi 7y agoYou stop caring about 1% of dust escaping after a few cleanings :)
- JoeAltmaier 7y agoShark IQ has a bin in the dock. It self-empties with a blower each time it docks. Empty that over the bin in the garage once a month (just pick it up like a suitcase with the handle, carry it out, press the button on the side and the bottom trapdoor opens and whoosh! all the dust outside in the bin).
- winrid 7y agoI have a tiny shop vac that I use to clean it once a week or so: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003M2F7NI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_z55BEb3WKZFD6 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003M2F7NI/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_z5... This also cleans the filter really well, letting it last over a year.
- asdff 7y agomy xiaomi has a separate dust bin that you can remove from the unit and open elsewhere. I just stick my hands in the trash bin and open it there. For the upright dyson vacuum which I use on higher pile carpet that clogs the robot, I have to take the canister to the large trash can outside because dust gets absolutely everywhere.
