When reviewing the Yeedi M14 Plus Robot Vacuum & Mop, it was disappointing to find out that it has not been launched in the UK yet. However, Yeedi has now introduced the S16 Plus, claiming it to be their most advanced and powerful flagship robot vacuum to date. While the specifications of the S16 Plus are quite similar to the M14 Plus, the main highlight of this model is the new Boosted Large-Airflow Suction Technology (BLAST).
According to Yeedi’s press release, the BLAST feature utilizes larger fan blades, an ultra-wide air inlet, and a streamlined aerodynamic duct to produce stronger and more stable airflow per rotation. The 45° angled fan blades guide air through an Archimedean spiral for optimal performance, similar to the technology used in the ECOVACS X9 PRO OMNI flagship model.
Equipped with a 100W high-torque motor, the S16 Plus offers 30% more torque and 50% higher discharge current than standard models, making it highly effective in removing embedded dust, pet hair, and debris from all types of surfaces.
However, when comparing the S16 Plus to the recently launched M14 Plus, there are some notable differences in specification:
– Suction Power: M14 Plus boasts higher suction power (18,000 Pa vs. 16,600 Pa).
– Battery Capacity: S15 Plus features a larger battery capacity (6,400 mAh vs. 5,200 mAh).
– Dirty Water Tank Capacity: M14 Plus holds more water (4 L vs. 2.2 L).
– Obstacle Avoidance: M14 utilizes AIVI 3D 3.0 technology, while S15 uses RGBD + camera light for obstacle avoidance.
– Features: S16 Plus introduces BLAST technology for improved airflow performance.
The Yeedi S16 Plus is an impressive premium robot vacuum that offers exceptional vacuuming and mopping performance. The BLAST airflow technology enhances efficiency and reduces noise levels, while the OZMO ROLLER system ensures superior cleaning results. With a longer battery life and strong anti-tangle system, the S16 Plus is suitable for pet owners and households with varied flooring types.
While the S16 Plus comes with some trade-offs compared to the M14 Plus, such as lower suction power and a smaller dirty water tank, it is still a solid choice for those seeking advanced mopping technology and extended battery life. Ultimately, the decision between the S16 Plus and M14 Plus will depend on the pricing at the time of purchase, with the S16 Plus offering quieter operation and longer runtime, making it a preferred option in certain scenarios.
