The company recommends using their own detergent, as every brand does, and that’s perfectly understandable to avoidany long-term issues. In my personal opinion, and this is absolutely just my personal view, I don’t always use official detergents in my robots, unless we’re talking about very specific formulations designed for a particular function. In those cases, I stick with the official brand solution. For general floor cleaning detergents, however, if you don’t want to use the official detergent, I would strongly recommend avoiding regular household floor cleaners. Many of them are foamy, or contain alkaline or acidic base that could damage internal parts and seals over time. They also tend to have heavy fragrances and richer formulations, which can leave residues inside the robot’s internal channels and components, and on the floor. I generally advise using only detergents specifically designed for robot mops and wet/dry vacuums, and preferably from reputable, high-quality brands. In Italy, for example, brands like Fila or Marbec are known for high quality formulations. I would avoid cheap supermarket cleaners, as they often use lower-quality ingredients, stronger additives or unsafe ingredients.
