Tire marks. Tire marks everywhere....
Love my Roomba. Had high hopes for the Braava m6.
Unfortunately, this leaves tire tracks EVERYWHERE. I have a combination of dark hardwood flooring and lighter colored tile. The tire marks are very obvious on the darker floor. It makes the floor look horrible.
I used the recommended amount of Braava cleaner. Then I tried minimal cleaner and mostly water. Went through both wet pads. Nothing seemed to work. Why the cleaning head isn’t BEHIND the wheels is beyond me...seems like an obvious design choice.
iRobot really needs to address the problem. Either a better formulated cleaner, different wheel material/design, or a cleaning pattern that minimizes the wheel marks left behind.
Can’t recommend this product at all.
Update 6/23/19:
Ordered the washable pads in the hopes they might help alleviate the tire marks. Didn’t work. Braava also can’t clear minor floor transitions that my Roomba has no trouble with, causing it to get stuck and the mapping feature to be worthless. Returning mine, the Braava is not ready for prime time.
