Conga 4090, a robot that vacuum and scrub with laser sensor

We return with a product of those that I know you like, those products aimed at making our lives easier at home, the smart home is the order of the day in Actualidad Gadget and vacuum robots cannot be missing in our catalog of reviews, that in addition now also scrub. We have in our hands the Conga 4090, one of the most complete robots in the mid-range with interesting features. Stay with us to find out if this is really worth it. Conga 4090, what are its main characteristics and what are the results that it has offered us with our video analysis of its operation.

It is not the same to read it as to see it in operation, that's why I invite you to go through the video that we have made on our channel, in which you can see how easy it is to use this Conga 4090, its suction power and its real performance in day-to-day tasks.

Design and materials: Continuous and effective

In the market for robot vacuum cleaners, brands are not abusing creativity when designing them, it is evidence. We find a product made of black plastic, 34 centimeters in diameter (standard size) and 9,5 centimeters in height (also a fairly standard size). The weight itself could be considered relatively high, but it is a detail inherent to the number of functions it has and the suction power, in this case we are talking about 4 kg in total, not much or little to tell the truth.

• Weight: 4 Kg
• Size: 34 cm in diameter and 9,5 cm in height

We have a system of brushes at the bottom, The box includes three that are easily interchangeable without the need for instructions. As for the rotating brush that absorbs dirt from the floor, we find one in the right area of ​​the robot, and the classic blind wheel in the upper central part. In the body of the machine, the cylinder of the rotary engine and the two buttons for manual access to the device stand out. The tank in the back has a button system so we will not suffer detachments.

Conga 4090 Specifications

This Cecotech Conga 4090 lacks practically nothing, It is clear that we must take into account the price, but it could be said that it is a mid-range robot vacuum cleaner bordering on the high one. I want to emphasize that it has WiFi connectivity even 5 GHz, which many other vacuum cleaners do not have. In the merely technical we have 2.700 Pa, which is a significant amount of suction, although this directly affects the noise it emits, of course. For the rest of the features we are hardly going to miss something in this device.

First use setup

The first thing we have to do right out of the box is this Cecotech Conga 4090 download the mobile application (iOS / Android) and start it up. At this moment we press the two physical buttons until we hear the beep and proceed to the configuration that is quick and easy. From this moment we can take advantage of all its features such as storage of up to five maps, tank and autonomy control, real-time direction control and various functionalities. It should be noted that the application will force us to register through a Cecotec account in order to use it.

  • Run cleanup
  • Send robot to base
  • Review, edit and delete maps
  • Cleaning plans based on the map
  • Choice of cleaning mode

We already have the Conga 4090 for your use. If on the other hand we want to ignore the application (something I do not recommend), the package includes a programmable remote control and its batteries, which works quite well. We start it up and take advantage of any of your cleaning programs; Automatic; Edges; Spiral; Twice; Scrubbing; Punctual; Restricted Area and Smart Area. We also have the possibility of manual control (already mentioned) and of sending it directly to the charging base.

Needless to say once linked to Alexa or Google Assistant We just have to give the order for them to start cleaning, as if it were the application itself.

Sweeping, vacuuming and mopping the Conga 4090

We start with the sweep, In this case we have the famous Jalisco brush that is giving such good results, the rubber brush designed mainly for animal hair, and the classic long-bristle brush for a more in-depth cleaning. We have tried all three and I mainly opt for the Jalisco brush for regular cleaning and the "animal care" when I try to catch my cat's hair. Changing them is quite simple. The laser detection system helps a lot not to skip any area, although it has found impediments for example with long curtains or the projections of the bed, detecting them as areas to avoid. He has not encountered any problems getting on the carpets (also increasing the suction power) or overcoming small obstacles. Cleaning, as you have seen in the video, is quite efficient, I recommend a daily cleaning in ECO mode and switch to smart mode once a week.

As for scrubbing, we find an interesting mixed model. We can easily fill the tank separately, even with floor cleaning products. The mop, on the other hand, is easily attached via an insert rail, regardless of the water system, and that is appreciated. Once again, what we really find is a system that moistens the soil, it gives good results on parquet or wooden floors, things change in other materials where we have found some "rubbing" of water. The scrubbing system is quite precise and relapses in deep places, offering good results. This scrubbing system serves to avoid dust on the floor and a little more, it does not replace a regular mop, we must take it into account.

Editor's opinion

We are before the congas 4090, a robot that is definitely not cheap (€ 499 PVP) but that includes almost all the technologies that we can expect from a product with these characteristics.

In his favor I have to say that the power is sufficient, that it picks up small and medium-sized residues quite well and that the cleaning is quite deep at the dust level. The application is very complete and the sensors work efficiently avoiding unnecessary blows with the furniture. In the same way the content of the package is extensive, with almost everything you need.

On the other hand it also has negative points, the laser sensor is sometimes too exquisite, leaving mirrored areas and long curtains unsuccessful. The app requires unnecessary registration and the noise at high powers is quite high (which is understandable to be honest).

The Conga 4090 is a robot that you can buy from 499 euros in THIS LINK and that offers a very complete experience, for those looking for "something more" in this smart vacuum cleaner, but who must bear in mind that quality and functionality come at a price.
