I want to say right away that there is experience in operating robotic vacuum cleaners, so I will judge strictly, since there is something to compare with. And the first thing I noticed was the low cost of equipment, which can be argued by the Russian origin of the company. In this case, the manufacturer is exclusively engaged in the development of robotic vacuum cleaners.

Equipment
The model weighs only 2.3 kilograms with dimensions of 31.7 x 32.3 x 7.9 centimeters, so it comes in a small bright box. The apparatus is shown on the front part, the name is indicated and the advantages of the device are summarized.
The device is packed correctly: sections for accommodating different parts are provided in a cardboard tray. Therefore, in the framework of transportation, the elements do not rub and do not beat against each other. Additionally, each component is in a plastic bag. In general, the developers even took care of the little things, and the presence of a plastic carrying handle is proof of this.
In the review of the GUTREND FUSION 150 robot vacuum cleaner, it is also worth noting the “richness” of the configuration. After extracting the contents from the box, I found:
- Remote control;
- Two batteries for the remote;
- Charging base;
- Charging for the base;
- Magnetic tape;
- Foam rubber filter;
- HEPA filter;
- Capacity for wet cleaning;
- Microfiber for wet cleaning (2 included);
- Side brushes (4 included);
- Brush for cleaning the container;
- Cleaning wipes;
- Instruction and warranty card;
- The vacuum cleaner itself.
In general, the first impression is positive, we turn to getting acquainted with the features of the model.
GUTREND FUSION 150 Construction Overview
The case of the model is made in a classic form of glossy plastic. The cover is covered with glass, which against the background of a yellow insert around the perimeter and a logo with the name of the model gives the device a certain elegance. The downside is that fingerprints will always remain on the surface.
Above the company name is a stylish silver power button. Serves for automatic start and shutdown of the device.
The on / off button for the robotic vacuum cleaner is located on the side between the container and the bumper. Nearby is a hole for connecting charging. In parallel, on the other hand there is an air vent.
In the back there is a compartment for installing either a removable trash bin or a water tank. To remove one of the containers, just pull the lever down.
The protective bumper has a rubber insert, therefore, in the event of a collision with interior objects, the risk of damage is minimized. Under it, the developers installed a number of indicators that are responsible for the prevention of emergency situations.
Under the bottom there is a removable orange turbo brush, wheels, a guide roller, a contact group for connecting to the base and attachments for the end brushes.
Putting on small brushes is extremely simple - until the click. Between them is a battery compartment. The height of the wheels is enough to overcome obstacles, up to 1.2 centimeters.
It is worth adding in the review of the FUSION 150 robot vacuum cleaner that the brush has a thoughtful design and is easily removed for subsequent cleaning.
It is installed in strict sequence and in a certain position.
Dust collector and water container
The capacity of the dust bag is 450 milliliters. At the top is a tray designed to install replaceable HEPA and foam filters.
Each element is fixed tightly, quality assembly. It is revealed due to the influence of force (there are no buttons). Inside there is a coarse filter in the form of a strainer, which prevents the release of large particles of dust into the environment.
As already mentioned in the review of the complete set of the GUTREND FUSION 150 robot vacuum cleaner for wet cleaning, manufacturers supply a model with a water tank, which strongly resembles a garbage container with external signs. The differences are that the tank is not equipped with filters, it does not open. On top is a rubber stopper, by opening which you can add water.
In addition, there is a measuring scale with marks: 100, 200 and 300 milliliters.
On the surface of the container there is a microfiber rag that is mounted on Velcro. Below it is a nozzle through which water is supplied.
Care and maintenance of a robot cleaner
The docking station of the robot vacuum cleaner is convenient: there is a compartment for storing the remote control, the contact group works stably. The kit has a virtual wall in the form of magnetic tape.
With its help, you can limit the movement of the device.
A special attention in the FUSION 150 review deserves an abundance of operating modes:
- Automatic cleaning - it is activated either by pressing a button on the model’s body, or using the remote control. In this mode, the device automatically selects the optimal trajectory;
- Wet cleaning - instead of a dust container, a water tank must be installed. As a result, a vacuum cleaner instead of a suction turbine will use a microfiber cloth to which water is supplied;
- Scheduled cleaning - the principle of operation does not differ from the automatic mode, except for the fact that the full cycle is carried out at the programmed time. You can also set the day of the week;
- Spot cleaning - in this mode, the device moves in a spiral from the starting point. Great for cleaning heavily soiled areas in certain places;
- Cleaning along the walls - after the inclusion of this mode, the robot vacuum cleaner will move around the perimeter, coping with the hair of pets and other garbage;
- Maximum power - to achieve maximum cleaning quality during peak operation;
- Harvesting heavy contaminants - this mode involves increasing the suction power as the radius of action increases when moving from one point to another in a spiral;
- Quick cleaning - it saves time, as it cleans surfaces as quickly as possible without having to go through the same place more than two times.
Remote controller
Each function of this unit can be turned on using the remote control. Therefore, in the review of the GUTREND FUSION 150 robot vacuum cleaner for dry and wet cleaning, I suggest that you familiarize yourself with the ease of use:
- auto - starts automatic cleaning;
- in parallel is the home button, which provides for the return of the device to the base;
- below are the motion control buttons, and in the middle the launch of a robot cleaner;
- power - is responsible for switching the suction power (3 modes are available);
- to the right is the time setting;
- the next button is responsible for turning on the spiral;
- a button in the form of drops allows you to enable wet cleaning;
- the bottom button in the middle is responsible for enabling scheduled cleaning;
- bottom right button starts cleaning the perimeter.
The pool has a multi-line display, with which you can understand in what mode the robot vacuum cleaner operates.
Dry Cleaning Testing
I didn’t have any complaints about the quality of dry cleaning: thanks to the large wheels, the device overcame obstacles without problems, adjustable power and several modes allow you to choose the optimal conditions for cleaning any room in the apartment. Honestly, the lack of a plan-building function was confusing only until I saw the device in action. The only downside is that the cleaning cycle will last until the battery runs out. Therefore, after passing through the same zone several times, I turned off the device myself, after which the robot vacuum cleaner quickly returned to base.
Based on the test results, we can conclude that the sensors work well - obstacle avoidance is effective, in addition, the bumper has an effective rubber shock absorber. Problems arose only when cleaning under the table: because of the thin legs of the chairs there were slight difficulties with the passage of the zone. But the blows are not significant, and the apparatus sorted out this mess quite quickly. It is worth adding that I have a cat in my apartment, so a lot of wool is collected in hard-to-reach places. I liked that the device perfectly cleans along the walls, which can be seen, in fact, by the amount of garbage in the dust collector.
Wet Cleaning Testing
Before activating the wet cleaning mode, I changed the dust bag to a water tank. Further, I decided to test the SMART DRIP 2.0 intelligent water supply system, which, according to the developers, is responsible for calculating the exact dosage. In fact, automatic cleaning is repeated only with mopping the floor with water. To say that this robot vacuum cleaner allows you to achieve the perfect effect, I can not, of course, using the manual wet cleaning to achieve the desired result is easier.
Thus, wet cleaning, in fact, as in 99% of cases with other robotic vacuum cleaners, involves wiping the floor with a damp cloth. In general, the result is satisfactory after dry cleaning, as it was possible to refresh the surface. For the best effect, I recommend changing microfiber every 10 minutes, besides the equipment allows you to do it!
It is worth adding that air purification meets expectations, as the developers equipped the model with a 3-stage filtration system.
Personal opinion on the new GUTREND robot
Summing up the review of the GUTREND FUSION 150 robot vacuum cleaner, I want to say that I am completely satisfied with the quality of dry cleaning, although I did not understand how the trajectory is built. Apparently, the device moves according to a specific mode algorithm. The battery life is provided by a 2600 mAh lithium-ion battery, which, according to the manufacturer, is enough for 150 minutes of operation. It took me 40 minutes to clean the apartment, despite the fact that for a long time the device was “idling”, that is, I waited for it to shut itself down and return to the base.
During operation, it is better not to transfer the base, as there may be problems with its detection.
Conclusion
Thus, GUTREND FUSION 150 is one of the best robotic vacuum cleaners in its price range in the domestic market. Despite the affordable cost for such a technique, the device supports many modes, provides effective dry cleaning and long battery life. There is enough power to clean large apartments with pets.
