across 5 reviews
4.0/5
divided
Reviewers praise
  • Spinning mop pads with extend and swing technology clean corners, edges, and under furniture more thoroughly than most rivals
  • Base station handles hot-water mop washing, hot-air drying, auto-emptying, and self-cleaning washboard with minimal user intervention
  • 12,000 Pa suction delivers strong deep-clean performance on both hard floors and carpets, with automatic carpet-boost mode
Reviewers push back
  • Extendable side brush deactivates on carpet and area rugs, leaving edges uncleaned in mixed-flooring homes
  • Hot-water mopping improvement over the previous generation is marginal in real-world use, not the step-change advertised
  • Base station accumulates grime over time despite its self-cleaning cycle; some manual maintenance is still needed
A highly capable robot vacuum and mop that impresses most reviewers with its cleaning power, advanced base station, and corner-reach features, though one reviewer finds key features fall short in mixed-flooring households.
— best for: Owners of predominantly hard-floor homes, especially those with pets, who want the most automated clean-and-mop routine available with minimal daily intervention.

I have 4 dogs and this robot vacuum is such a time saver! I would normally vacuum my house 3 times a day because of the husky fur that is everywhere all the time. This does the vacuuming AND the mopping all by itself! The app is easy to use and navigate. The vacuum sucks up all the dirt and fur with just one pass over. The corners are not missed because of the extendable brush head which is such a valr76 · walmart.com

This is by far the best product I have used! It has the option of replacing the drum with tricut brush to cut the hair, so 0 hair will get tangled to the vacuum! Battery life is amazing, suction is perfect. It’s super smart & cleans 99% of the home, it has side brush & side mop which cleans all the edges & angles. It’s super smart & detects the dirtier areas & suggest it to you to go and clean it Paul · dreametech.com
