## What reviewers found

### Dreame L60 Ultra FE

- Vacuum Wars (2.92 Vacuum Wars stars (buyer's guide)): Tested alongside the PE: 80% carpet sand removal, 51% flattened pet hair pickup, 7% hair wrap, 2 of 24 obstacles avoided, dried stain score 137 (108 average) and about 1,110 sq ft per charge. [Source](https://vacuumwars.com/dreame-l60-ultra-pe-review/)
- Just A Dad Approved (8.2/10): After 90 days of home testing, liked the flagship style hot water dock and included TriCut brush, but noted the 0.78 in threshold limit, lower mop pressure than the PE and only solid obstacle avoidance. [Source](https://justadadapproved.com/product/dreame-l60-ultra-fe-robot/)

### SwitchBot K20+ Pro

- PCWorld: Tested the $748.98 Patrol Kit with a required $119.99 Hub 3: the 3K camera pans 360 degrees, but with the mobile base fitted it would not cross a slightly sloped hardwood to tile transition, and it called the vacuum decent but not a main cleaner. [Source](https://www.pcworld.com/article/2924138/switchbot-k20-plus-pro-patrol-kit-review.html)
- MacSources (80%): Rated it 80% GOOD (Design 90%, Ease of Use 80%, Price 70%); praised the modular design and under furniture reach, but noted a complex app, navigation recovery issues and camera lag. Fan accessory ran 13 to 49 hours depending on speed. [Source](https://macsources.com/switchbot-k20-pro-review/)
