A capable, low maintenance flagship with strong carpet cleaning, spill detection and a hair cutting system that kept brushes clean in testing. It is slow, and Tom's Guide saw it miss corners and catch wires. Skip it if you pay near full price, since it was sold out with deep checkout discounts when we checked.
