Our take

HOBOT 388

A simple but effective window-cleaning robot for awkward exterior glass. Owner feedback is positive on speed and ease of use, especially for apartments where manual outside cleaning is risky.

What people like

Owners praise the automatic spray, fast cleaning and the fact it can handle exterior windows without leaning outside.

Common complaints

It still needs cloth changes and manual repositioning between panes, so it saves effort rather than making window cleaning fully automatic.

Best for

Glass-cleaning jobs that benefit from dual rotating cleaning wheels.

Also consider · HUTT A1

Why consider it: Owners like the strong suction, simple operation and ability to clean dusty, hard-to-reach windows without pre-wetting.

The compromise: It can leave a small mark where it is removed, and there is still limited long-term owner history compared with Ecovacs.

A1

A good-value window robot for awkward fixed panes. Early owners report very good cleaning with only minor touch-up needed where the robot is removed.

Also consider · Dreame C1

Why consider it: Reviewers praise its strong suction, systematic coverage and good cleaning of light-to-medium dirt.

The compromise: It is noisy, can leave a film or streaks, and stubborn dirt or edge areas often need another pass or a manual wipe.

C1

A capable window robot for people with large or awkward glass, but it still cannot replace a cloth for a perfect finish. We like the navigation more than the cleaning precision.

Also consider · Dreame C1 Station

Why consider it: Independent testers praise the secure grip, systematic navigation, large battery and strong results on regularly maintained glass.

The compromise: It is loud, heavy to carry, leaves some edge and removal-point marks, and requires too much repositioning to feel hands-off on lots of small windows.

C1 Station

1 review

A good fit for large panes and patio doors, but not a miracle cleaner. Reviewers consistently find it effective on normal dirt, while edges, dried-on marks and the final removal spot still need manual finishing.
