Window Cleaning Robot

timeless — Tue, 14 Jul 2026 01:20:34 GMT

I posted this question in the Home forum, but so far no answers.

So, wondering if anyone in the Electronics forum knows anything about the window cleaning robots.

Do they really clean without streaking and will they reach the corners of windows?

Some are very pricey, so if you have one, would you share your choice and let me know if you're happy with it?

How about googling your questions? How many people here do you really think have a window cleaning robot?

I had never heard of this so I looked them up. There are all kinds and prices. I would be interested to hear when anybody gets one and what the results are as well. Window cleaning and me - this is something I just can't do much these days - very difficult. If this were truly an option, it would be wonderful! I would sure go for one if they really worked!

The NY Times recently did a review of these. They recommended EcoVacs Winbot Mini available at Amazon for $180 according to the article. I can't paste the review but try Wirecutter dot com. The review is there.

Not you, apparently.

It seems to me that posters are allowed to ask questions about various products. Who knows if someone on these boards has bought or used one of these devices?

@timeless - I'd never even heard of a window cleaning robot, so it was news to me. I'm trying to figure out how the robot would climb vertically and not drop off!

Must be handheld or something. If you find out from anyone who has one, it will be interesting to hear.

Never heard of such a thing, so went to look 🥸 Honestly I would never attach anything that moves and has some weight to my glass pane. With my kind of luck.......

I use the technique where you pick up your phone and call the window washer guy or gal. No stress, no mess.

@Kachina624 "I use the technique where you pick up your phone and call the window washer guy or gal. No stress, no mess."

I'm justifying the price because I figure to hire someone to come clean our windows inside and out will cost at least the price of one of these. ONE TIME.

So crossing my fingers, this will be cost-effective over time! LOL

I've been washing my own windows for 30+ years and now that I'm going to be 60 this year, this is my present to me.

If you buy one please let us know how it works out. I stopped washing the outside of my windows when I turned 70 which was last year. I just cant do it any longer but I love clean windows. I'd be very interested in a window robot to get them clean.

Professional window washers won't do a job here if it's less than a set number of windows. I don't have that many to clean so they go unwashed now. I need that robot...lol!

I have ECOVACS WINBOT Mini on order.

I had a hard time deciding on either that one or the next size up. We'll see how it goes and I'll report back. lol

Thankfully, my window washer is my husband. He actually loves to wash windows. He washes the, inside and out a few times every year.

I live in a two story house, but luckily the window panes tilt in to make washing easier.

Has anyone ever tried washing their windows with their garden hose and a washing fluid you mix with the hose and just spray. The windows are suppose to dry clean and clear.

My windows crank out..so I can"t do the outsides. Had a professional guy 2 yrs. ago for $10 a panel just the outsides..I have a total of 33 windows....Oh long panels were $15 each..Called recently now he charges $22 a panel!..and he uses my water!..LOL

I started to say when it rains I hope it blows this way!..LOL

Professional anything is hard to come-by here..I asked a college kid for $10 a panel..he would only do the first floor!..My house is 3 stories!
