3i

3i G10+

Debris compression in the base and extendable mop are real mechanical innovations. The G10+ operates at mainstream vacuuming autonomy with standard maintenance trade-offs.

OWNERSHIP

Living with it.

Early market; LiDAR stability documented, mop-pad edge-case failures emerging in user forums.

Manufacturer has released one firmware update post-launch addressing corner coverage. No major recall. Owner-reported failure modes cluster on mop-pad clogging on low-pile carpet when no-mop zones not configured. Dock debris-insertion mechanism functions as specified.

Safety notes

CautionMop deployment on stairs: Mop extends on hard-surface detection; disable mop mode if dock placement near stairs.

NoteManual debris-bag insertion: Compression base is not fully autonomous; quarterly emptying and bag reinsertion required. Not hands-off.

Common questions

What people actually ask.

5 answered
Operation
Does the 3i G10+ mop automatically when vacuum is running, or is it a separate mode?
The mop extends automatically during vacuum operation on hard-surface zones when enabled in the app. It retracts on carpeted rooms per the per-room settings. This is a single-pass operation, not a separate cycle.
Operation
How often does the debris-compression base need attention?
Manufacturer specs list quarterly or as-needed emptying depending on pet shedding load. The base compresses debris into a 0.5L internal storage until you manually trigger dust-bag insertion. Owner reports suggest 30-90 day intervals for typical households.
Operation
What water tank capacity does the mop system have?
Tank capacity is approximately 250ml per manufacturer specifications. Refill is manual; no auto-refill dock is documented. Runtime on a full tank covers roughly 400-500 sqft of mopping depending on room size.
Operation
Can the G10+ handle multi-floor homes if floors are on different levels?
LiDAR mapping is persistent across sessions, so the robot can store separate floor layouts and navigate between them if carried manually. It does not climb stairs and requires physical transport between levels.
Operation
Does the mop pad type affect performance on different flooring?
Standard microfiber pads are included. Manufacturer does not publish performance variance by pad material. Owner reports document faster clogging of pads on low-pile carpet if no-mop zones are not set, recommending weekly pad rinses.
