Our verdict

The one to buy if your floor is an obstacle course. What separates it is not suction — plenty of cheaper robots match it there — but that it maps and avoids obstacles better than anything else tested, while staying low enough to get under furniture that traps taller LiDAR robots. In a cluttered home with pets and cables, that is the difference between a robot you run daily and one you rescue daily. In an open, tidy flat, you are paying roughly double for navigation you will not need.

Strengths and limitations

Pros

  • RTINGS rates it the best robot vacuum it has tested, on obstacle avoidance above all
  • Solid-state LiDAR without the raised turret, so it fits under furniture that stops rivals
  • Fully self-maintaining dock — emptying, washing and drying handled without you

Cons

  • Around $1,000 even after a $600 drop from its launch price
  • A cheaper Roborock beat it on corner mopping in one 2026 comparison test
  • The navigation advantage matters most in cluttered homes; in an open flat you are paying for capability you will not use
