robot vacuum cleaners Conga They lead the Spanish market thanks to their excellent mix between technology, features and price. After surprising the market with ultra-powerful robots like the 6090 and 7090, which multiply by three or four times the suction capacity of other competing devices, it is the turn of maximum comfort, thanks to the automatic emptying bases.
As with other brands, It is possible to purchase this robot with the self-emptying base included (with the last name Home at the end), or buy only the robot and later, if you wish, get the base.
However, If you find it an interesting complement, it is more appropriate to buy the Home version, since the price difference between both (at least, at the time of this analysis) is approximately 100 euros, while the self-emptying base is around 150.
In this review we will analyze the most complete model, the Ultra Home, with the automatic emptying base, but if you prefer the other version, you will only have to take that difference into account.

Operation of Cecotec Conga 2290 Ultra Home
La Conga 2290 Ultra Home is a mid-range robot, with a reasonable price, and some features that allow it to compete with high-end devices of other brands.
The self-emptying base, maximum comfort and hygiene
In this case, we will start with the automatic emptying base, the star feature of this robot.
SmartClean technology allows the robot to empty itself automatically when returning to it; This device is like a vacuum cleaner, which includes a bag inside (in fact, when the dirt is emptied into the bag we will hear a loud noise for a few seconds, similar to that of a conventional vacuum cleaner).
The bags have a capacity of 2 liters, enough for several weeks, and brings three units; The system detects if the bag is installed, to notify us if necessary.
Thanks to this accessory, we save ourselves one of the most cumbersome jobs of a robot (emptying the tank), since the dirt is deposited in the bags without our intervention.
Navigation
This model incorporates iTech SmartGyro 4.0 navigation technology based on a gyroscope, in combination with other sensors (proximity, anti-shock, anti-fall); The gyroscope is a kind of digital compass that allows you to orient yourself and know where you have gone and where you have not, which results in fluid and efficient navigation.
La Conga 2290 Ultra Home It maps the home in real time, allowing it to determine the optimal cleaning route and return to base, moving in large straight lines, covering 100% of the surface to be covered and finishing in less time than other robots with less advanced systems (since it does not pass through the same place several times). To limit the areas you can access, this model includes a magnetic stripe.
This information also allows you to incorporate Total Surface technology; If it does not finish cleaning completely, it returns to the base and once charged, it comes out again to finish the cleaning.
