Reviews
Great works very well
Great unit works very well only issue is I can not get it to connect to the wifi. I have two units. But other then that they are great.
Show detailsDo not buy this vacuum
If I could give this less than 1 star I would. It took me 3 weeks to receive the vacuum and all it does it push everything around and not suck anything up. The battery also does not seem to last as long as what it says. The communication with customer service is terrible and there is no number to call. It takes them days/weeks to respond to emails so it is very frustrating. I wish I had of spent more money on a product that actually works. Do not get sucked in by the cheaper price like I did.

Make your batteries last longer and stop planned obsolescence!
Less than 6 months after purchase for more than it was worth and other reviewers, I get max a half an hour vacuuming then the battery dies. It does vacuum my carpet in 2 bedrooms, but it can't handle the shag rug in my living room. I'm ok with that, but after spending 250 and that was on sale, I do NOT have my money's worth, and I am disappointed because it's just another bunch of plastic and electronic waste. I get a quarter of my very small house then it dies. The actual design of the dust catcher and the ability to take it apart to clean is great. I just want these companies to be responsible for the waste their substandard quality products and this is why I am writing this review.

Effectiveness of vacuum:
How well this vacuum APPEARS to work depends on the floor you have.
On normal carpet: Does not work well at all. I went over with a stick-vacuum Dyson after the MyGenie, and the amount of dust that was remaining showed that the MyGenie had sucked up about 20%. This vacuum is simply not strong enough to manage anything remotely embedded. On the shag rug, not only does it struggle to vacuum properly, it struggles to even move, and on any rugs will often get stuck on something as simple as a raised edge.
On wooden floors:

Keeps pushing debris away
I cannot recommend this vacuum. It keeps pushing the loose particles on my floor underneath itself which comes out behind, and the rubber seal I guess is used to scoop the debris into the unit is forever caught in the roller underneath. Good at collecting cat fur- mostly because it gets caught in the brushes.
If I could give 0 out of 5 stars I would.

This the second one we’ve had after the first lasted two weeks and just shut down. This new replacement now won’t vacuum, sends false alerts, and just wants to go back to its dock. Bought from an Australian retailer which is even sadder, as you expect them to have ensured quality assurance. If you want to get frustrated, annoyed, spend countless hours trying to get it to work, then buyer beware. Otherwise it’s not worth a cent.

It cleans alright, but by god is it the dumbest robot vacuum I have ever had. This robot, which we have lovingly called Maximillian, is meant to have intelligent anti-collision but watch it bump into every single furniture every 5 seconds. And even worse, bumping into the SAME one multiple times. It constantly needs rescuing from getting trapped under things. The automatic charging doesn't work either because we've come home to him dead in the middle of the living room when he's literally 2 steps away from the charging port-- with NOTHING blocking it, mind you. We're too scared to let it run on the 2nd floor because we're sure it'll fall down the stairs and hurt itself.
All the flaws aside, it helps when we're too lazy to vacuum ourselves.

This vacuum worked well for dry vacuuming and mopping at first but after a few uses the brush broke and the mopping function no longer works. Thinking it was the water tank, I bought a new one, but this did not fix the issue. Chasing up support to get the problem sorted out has been painful. A video is required but the capacity for file uploads is so small even photograph files were too large. Maybe the machine I bought was a lemon but the whole experience has been frustrating and disappointing.

Given the price point of this robot vacuum we were pleasantly surprised that it could mop and vacuum. It’s very easy to set up and operate both the vacuum and app. The onboard dustbin and water tank have enough capacity to clean a large home and the battery lasts about an hour for vacuuming and longer when mopping. It has impressive suction and decent enough mopping capability. It has the option to select more intensive suction power or a higher water seeping mode for mopping which comes in handy but also at the cost of higher battery consu

It’s surprisingly quiet and navigates the home with ease as well as returns to base with little fuss. We did find that when it encountered bright sun flooding through the windows and reflecting off the tiles (we have floor to ceiling windows) it would become a little disoriented and give us an error to ‘check the wheels/wheels off the floor’. Once you figure out the issue and take proactive measures (draw the curtains/blinds on bright sunny days), it operates perfectly. The cons of this robot would be that if you have a larger sized home or lots of tiles/hardwood floors then the mop can get dirty quite quickly. To avoid dragging a dirty mop around and achieve a streak free clean of your floors it’s best to periodically pause the vacuum to remove and hand wash the mop. This can be time consuming and also if the robot is paused for any reason during a cleaning cycle, it will wipe it’s progress on the map and will resume a new cleaning cycle without remembering where it’s already cleaned. This was probably the most frustrating issue for us. Also it would be nice if you could create no-go zones on the app. We had to go around the home and physically put up barriers for any rooms/areas that we wanted it to avoid which became a little time consuming Overall if you have low maintenance tiles/hardwood/laminate floors/minimal carpet and a small-medium sized home or apartment then Mygenie Gmax wifi would be the perfect option for you.Find out how MyGenie GMAX Wi-Fi compares to other Robot Vacuum Cleaners

Only worked for 2 months
We got this vacuum from Noni B in January 2022 and it stopped working in March. When we first got it it worked wonders on our tiled floors and even the carpeted areas. We had clean floors and life was good. It connected well with our wifi. The only problem was it would get stuck under some furniture pieces. Kinda annoying but it was working still.
In March it started to make these really loud rattling noises and was not working properly and now when you take it off its charging port it just switches off and records battery power of zero % even though its been charging all day. Very very disappointed with this product.

Just bought it and it won’t even move a metre
Just bought this and received it the other day. Did the right thing to let it charge for 8 hours before first time using it. It connects very well to my wifi and the app. Tried to turn it on the my genie can reverse out from the charging dock and as it turns to go forwards it stops and beeps 3 times. I checked my manual and it says clean the wheels with the brush that’s provided done that and it won’t move and still beeps 3 times. I have put it back on charge but I’m hoping I just received a faulty I have emailed the support email haven’t heard back yet.

My Genie is giving 4 buzzer sounds. I have checked the sensors but can find nothing wrong.
It works for a very short period then stops.
