Pros and cons

Pros

  • Lidar navigation and a self empty dock are both yes, so rooms are mapped and the bin is emptied at the dock.
  • The entry robot is €109 and the flagship is €340, so the whole ladder stays under the category midpoints.
  • A spare parts shop is yes, so brushes, filters and pads are available to G7, T9, C7 owners after the warranty ends.
  • Runtime of 250 minutes and a 300 ml bin keep dock returns to a sensible balance on a single charge.

Cons

  • Support runs on email only, so there is no phone line or live chat route when something breaks.
  • Peak suction of 6,500 Pa sits below the robot vacuum median of 11,500 Pa, so it trails the field on raw lift.
  • The range covers robot vacuum, handheld and wet dry, with no stick or upright models, unlike Ewbank and Daewoo Electricals.
  • Mopping is a pad system across the reference models G7, T9, C7, so wet cleaning stays at pad level.

Who it suits

  • First time robot buyers who want lidar mapping and a self empty dock at entry level pricing.
  • Households that keep machines for years, backed by 3 years of warranty and a spare parts shop.
  • Buyers in the served markets AU, AT and BE who are happy to order direct from a German entity.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Shoppers who want stick or upright models, since Ewbank and Daewoo Electricals list robot vacuum, stick and upright and robot vacuum, stick and upright, a wider mix than robot vacuum, handheld and wet dry.
  • Buyers who need phone or live chat help, since support runs on email only and a Philips purchase is the better first question for a retailer's help desk.

Core features

Lilin pairs lidar navigation with a self empty dock, so rooms are mapped and the bin is emptied at the dock. Peak suction is 6,500 Pa and a charge lasts 250 minutes. The bin takes 300 ml, and the body stands 9.8 cm tall, low enough for most furniture gaps. A spare parts shop is yes for replacements, and warranty cover runs 3 years.

How it compares on our data

In the ranking data Lilin sits at 29 of 65 on price at entry and 22 of 66 on flagship price, which places it in the cheaper part of the field on both. On peak suction it ranks 37 of 46, the one measure where it drifts toward the middle of the pack. The overall score is 9.1.

Plans and prices

Lilin prices per machine rather than per plan. The entry robot is €109 and the top model is €340, both paid as a single purchase. There is no introductory rate that renews into a different figure, and no monthly subscription to cancel later, so the entry price is the full starting outlay. The gap between the two figures also means stepping up to the flagship is not a large jump.

The company behind it

Lilin is run by LIECTROUX ROBOTICS GmbH, registered in Germany, which shapes how after sales, returns and warranty claims are handled for buyers across Europe. Support runs on email, so help arrives in writing and no phone line or live chat is part of the package. Plan for self service troubleshooting and keep your own purchase records, since the route to a person is a message.

How Lilin compares

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Lilin robot vacuum cost?+

The entry robot is €109 and the top model is €340, both sold as a single payment rather than a plan. The entry figure sits under the robot vacuum midpoint of €145.84, so a first robot does not mean settling for the bare minimum.

Is there a renewal price or a monthly charge after buying?+

No. Lilin lists a price per machine, so the entry robot at €109 and the flagship at €340 are paid once and nothing renews afterwards. The only ongoing spending is upkeep, meaning filters, brushes and mop pads, and a spare parts shop is available for those items.

How strong is the suction and how long does it run?+

Peak suction is 6,500 Pa and a charge lasts 250 minutes, which covers hard floors and everyday dust. That figure is below the robot vacuum median of 11,500 Pa, so deep carpet is not where this range leads.

Does it use lidar and can it empty its own bin?+

Lidar navigation is listed as yes, so rooms are mapped rather than driven blind, and a self empty dock is yes too. The bin holds 300 ml and the body measures 9.8 cm tall, low enough to pass under most furniture gaps.

How do I get help if something goes wrong?+

Support runs on email, so questions go by message and no phone line or live chat is listed. Warranty cover runs 3 years from LIECTROUX ROBOTICS GmbH, the entity that handles after sales, so buyers who want spoken help should weigh that before ordering.

Where can I buy Lilin robots?+

The range is sold into AU, AT and BE, with the company registered in Germany. Delivery and after sales run through one German entity rather than a local retailer, so check shipping times and any duty for your market before ordering.

Does the mop handle deep carpet washing?+

Mopping is a pad system, and the mop type is fixed per model rather than upgraded later. With suction of 6,500 Pa and runtime of 250 minutes, the same machine covers a standard floor, and the self empty dock handles the bin afterwards.

How does Lilin compare with bigger floor care brands?+

On price the range is light: entry at €109 and a flagship at €340 stay under the robot vacuum midpoints. On choice, Ewbank lists robot vacuum, stick and upright and Philips keeps to robot vacuum and wet dry, so a buyer wanting extra floor care types may prefer one of them.
