I’ve owned my D7 for a few years. To suddenly shut off support for a fairly costly product is utterly bad business and unacceptakble. Vorwerk and Neato have proven themselves to be irresponisble players.

The only problems I ever had was with wifi connection and found that could of been a weak signal because of where I placed it.
I’m a little annoyed right now, to learn of Neato closing down. At the very least, the company could at least put a sign on their website, stating they were “CLOSED FOR BUSINESS”. I’ve been banging my head against the wall all day trying to find a solution to why my Neato App, would not let me sign in. So Thank You very much Neato or that other company that took them over. You taught me a big lesson. In the future I will never pay hundreds of dollars for something, because of the way you treat your customers. You shut down without notification. Without consideration to what happens to us and in the future, if I have to, I’ll use my shop vac to clean my floors.

What are we going to do with these robots when they close down the website and you can’t vacuum your floor even if your vacuum is brand new? I have a d8 that has to sign up online to work.

Who can I turn to for the repair needs I have? Is the new company going to reach out to my needs. I have been trying for several weeks and NO response! Why want someone address this issue?? ASAP

I’ve had my D7 for several years now even the cloud based services are done. Phone number for help is “Canceled”. These people in Dublin Ireland were knowledgeable friendly and helpful. Won’t be buying anything from the parent company Vorwerk if I can avoid it

Now how do I get help with my problems? I am very disappointed to hear this news as I paid for an extended warranty an am having many problems. How do I take advantage of the extended warranty I purchased?
