A top pick if you want flagship vacuuming without paying X60 prices. Vacuum Wars measured excellent carpet, pet hair and obstacle results, and the lifting LiDAR plus 3.5 in step climbing helps in homes with low furniture and raised thresholds. Skip it if you mostly mop, since testers found it wet the floor more than needed and coverage per charge is below average.

A strong pick if you want a roller mop that rinses itself while it cleans and a dock that does almost everything. Vacuum Wars measured top tier pet hair results with zero hair wrap. Skip it if your space is tight, since the dock is large, or if you want a plumbed in water option.

What reviewers found
Dreame L60 Pro Ultra
- Vacuum Wars (3.96 Vacuum Wars stars): Measured 90% carpet sand removal (78% average), 93.5% pet hair pickup, 0% hair wrap and 22 of 24 obstacles avoided. Mopping used too much water, and estimated coverage was about 1,020 sq ft per charge. Source
- Vacuum Chef: Measured 579 FPM airflow, 90% coffee grounds, 60% embedded sand and 95% cat litter removal on carpet, and a 79% obstacle avoidance score. Coverage ranged from about 3,950 sq ft on low suction to just over 500 sq ft on max. Source
Narwal Freo 20
- Vacuum Wars (4.03 Vacuum Wars stars): Measured 1.31 kPa suction, 17 CFM airflow, 93 on carpet deep clean, 87.5% flattened pet hair pickup, 0% hair wrap, and about 2,489 sq ft per charge. Category scores: mopping 3.2, obstacle avoidance 3.52, navigation 4.44, pets 4.63. Source
- Journal du Geek (8.5/10): Liked the 266 x 55 mm self rinsing roller mop and found mopping left no missed areas. Called the 43.1 x 40.2 x 46.1 cm dock very large and said hair tangling is reduced but not eliminated. Source
- Presse-citron (8/10): Tested on a 50 m² mixed floor area. Very effective vacuuming and good stain removal, slightly less thorough than the Flow 2. Never hit objects or caught cables, but battery life is shorter than the Flow 2 and vacuum mode is loud. Source
