I tried the latest robot window cleaner and I’m obsessed!

By Jen Bishop •

FacebookPinWhatsAppEmailTweet

Sponsored by ECOVACS Robotics

Two things I very much love are smart home technology and clean windows. At home, we have a robot vacuum, wifi-enabled lamps and remote-controlled blinds, and these little home automations make me so happy! It’s a close call but I probably love clean windows more however. The thrill I feel after the window cleaner has been is real! You know when the glass is so sparkling it looks like the window’s been left open? Satisfying!

If it didn’t cost $350 each time, the window cleaner would be here every month, not just twice a year! But if I get myself a WINBOT W2 PRO OMNI, he may not need to come at all (sorry Paul!).

I’ve been road testing this new model from ECOVACS Robotics (I already have one of their robot vacuums) and my robot window cleaner review in a nutshell: it does not disappoint. Plus, I was able to figure it out for myself and use it easily. Let’s say technology isn’t my strong suit unless it’s really easy. Lucky I married a former consumer tech journalist…

We’re giving one lucky reader the chance to win their own window cleaning robot, but more on that later.

This was straight out of the box, quick-start easy, I promise you. And while I was initially terrified it’d fall off the windows, it never did and I soon learned to trust it. I mean, it even speaks to you and tells you when it’s safe to let go! One of the best things about this is it’s the first portable window cleaner in Australia, meaning you can charge it and then take it around the house with it’s carry handle, cordless.

The thing about cleaning windows is however prepared I am to put the work in myself (and when they’re looking bad I have zero patience!), I just cannot seem to achieve that streak-free finish and sometimes I think I’ve made them worse than not trying at all! I’ve googled every ‘hack’ going and none of them ever quite do the job.

The brand new WINBOT W2 PRO OMNI robotic window cleaner features upgraded cleaning technologies alongside a pioneering in-base, multi-functional OMNI station that makes window cleaning more efficient, safe, and hassle-free than ever before.

Delivering a high-capacity battery for power cable-free cleaning, with performance, storage and safety firmly front of mind, the WINBOT W2 PRO OMNI can adapt to almost all window surfaces and sizes, whether floor-to-ceiling, small-sized, frameless, or tilting. Overcoming current pain points that include the need to plug into power, excessive cable clutter (no thanks!), and efficiency/remote control aspects, the WINBOT W2 PRO OMNI’s unique, multi-functional OMNI station delivers 110 minutes of power cable-free cleaning. Seriously impressive!

Now for the technical bit. Its three-nozzle Wide-angle Spray Atomisation Technology and WIN-SLAM 4.0 intelligent planning technology keep windows clean as new, while the 12-stage safety feature ensures you can look out your spotless window with absolute peace of mind.

It continues ECOVACS’ leadership in robotic window cleaning after pioneering the category with its first WINBOT in 2011. The company has revolutionised window cleaning and made it safer and more efficient than ever before. In recent market research conducted by ECOVACS, cleaning windows was marked as one of the most desired options by Australians when asked about use cases for home robotics. Robotic window cleaning was equal to robots that cook dinner, but was more desired than robots that iron, purify air, clean your pool, receive deliveries and more by a significant margin.

“Australia is full of stunning landscapes and spectacular views, so it is no wonder we often design our homes with large windows. The WINBOT W2 PRO OMNI takes a generational leap forward in automated window cleaning, its breakthrough station design helping customers to embrace effortless window cleaning with no restrictions,” said Karen Powell, ANZ regional director for ECOVACS Robotics.

The WINBOT W2 PRO OMNI is now available at The Good Guys, Harvey Norman, JB Hi-Fi (online-only), Amazon and ECOVACS.com/au with a recommended retail price of $999 AUD.

Win a robot window cleaner: the WINBOT W2 PRO OMNI from ECOVACS!

We’re giving one of you the chance to win the ECOVACS WINBOT W2 PRO OMNI robotic window cleaner worth $999. Enter by completing the form below by midnight on Sunday 24 November 2024. Open to Australian residents only. Not open to employees or associates of ECOVACS Robotics or Interiors Addict.

I've been meaning to post about getting out of hos I've been meaning to post about getting out of hospital in time for Christmas and spending a magical time with my beautiful family and friends for days now, but I was staying in the moment and off my phone. My wish came true and it really was amazing to enjoy that Santa magic.

Sadly, the day after Boxing Day, I ended up back in an ambulance after an internal bleed where my hemoglobin levels dropped dangerously low. I'm not very good at explaining the medical side, but after surgery and a couple of nights in ICU, I'm now on a ward and recovering well, hoping I get to return home ASAP.

I have so many thank yous to say for the incredible GoFundMe donations and kindness and support I've received. I really am blown away and so grateful. There are so many good people in the world, both strangers and those I'm lucky enough to know.

And having now received 6 bags of blood transfusion myself, another huge shout out to all donors. I felt so good to know I've done my bit donating over the years when I received someone else's life saving donation. Please consider doing the same and potentially saving a life.

Before ending up back in hospital, I was settling in well at home with daily visits from nurses and I'm hoping I can get back to that new normal again soon. 

Thank you again to everyone for their kindness. And biggest thanks to @damianfrancis for truly spoiling me at Christmas and once again holding the fort at home. Our boys are so lucky to have you ❤️

Trigger warning: cancer. Home is SO important to Trigger warning: cancer.

Home is SO important to me, I even made a job out of talking about it. And having been stuck in hospital for 5 weeks, away from my sanctuary and my boys, I've never craved it more. 

I'm going through the hardest time of my life and I'm finally sharing it here in the way I hope you've always known me to; with authenticity, realness and hope.

I've been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. It's devastating and life-changing news and feels very vulnerable to share. Sadly it's causing me so much physical pain, I can't manage it at home. Being stuck in hospital, on top of keeping this secret, has been very isolating. 

Our precious boys are our number one priority and we are being very well supported by our medical team and amazing friends and family. I can't say enough about the huge role my husband is playing in keeping us together.

I've continued to work when possible because I love it and it's a big part of my identity. I want as much normalcy, distraction and positivity as possible right now. Some days I put my lipstick on and face the day with gratitude for all the good stuff, like my world class friends and amazing healthcare. But I'm only human and other days, I just can't.

Despite the gravity of the situation, I only have to look at my boys to know I cannot give up hope. 

Thanks for all the love and support I know you'll throw my way but please respect my boundaries by not asking medical questions or making medical suggestions, and know that I won't be able to reply to everyone. 

This beautiful community has supported me for over a decade and I'm sure your kindness will help me no end. And if you want to support me, keep reading the blog so my work isn't wasted!

I'll still be the main point of contact for Interiors Addict but things will look a little different as I continue my chemo (3 rounds down) and get used to my new way of life. 

Right now, my only wish is to be discharged to my family for Christmas. 

Because I can no longer give blood, if anyone would like to make a festive donation of blood or plasma on my behalf and share it with me here, that would really make my day ❤️

PS. Nurses are worth their weight in gold.

This once 90s kitchen is now reflective of the Mid This once 90s kitchen is now reflective of the Mid Century home it's the heart of, and its stylish owners who love vintage glass and other Marketplace finds.

Head to the blog via link in bio to see more of this transformation by @howardlanedesigns Designer Tamiko Gleeson says: "I love that the kitchen now truly serves Peter and Trish – functionally and aesthetically. While every finish is new, there’s a bold sense of nostalgia and confidence in the selections. I love the Jamaican Walnut joinery with its subtle peek of Botanical Green, and the vertical timber slats in the sliding doors and wall-hung bar.

“I love the checkered tiles on the splashback and the way they add a playful rhythm to the space. But what I love most is how the design shines even brighter when layered with their Facebook Marketplace finds."
