The press-darling trap: The Verge and Gizmodo love the navigation, but RTINGS measured sub-par hard-floor cleaning, which is disqualifying for a vacuum. Buy the Q7 M5+ or Omni E25 instead.

1 of 2 research runs entered this as a product to avoid rather than a pick.
RTINGS' instrumented testing rates it sub-par for cleaning hard floors, picking up only most everyday debris in open areas - disqualifying for a vacuum despite glowing press coverage. The Roborock Q7 M5+ or Eufy Omni E25 is the better buy.
