What reviewers found
eufy 11S Max
- TechHive: The jump to 2,000 Pa lifted more crumbs and pet hair, especially on carpet, and it crossed carpet to hardwood smoothly. It navigates by driving straight and turning on contact, so cables should be tidied. Source
- The Ambient: Removed most of the dirt in its runs and was very quiet in standard mode, but with no app or mapping it bounced around at random, choked on cables and got wedged between chairs. Source
iRobot Roomba 105 Combo + AutoEmpty Dock
- Tek.no (Norway): Rated it mediocre. Vacuums well and LiDAR improved navigation over older Roombas, but it got stuck, took a long time, has lower suction than rivals and a basic wet cloth mop. Source
- Just A Dad Approved (4.6/10): After about three months of home use it scored 5.5 of 10 for mopping, 6 for carpet, 5 for hair tangle and 1.5 for obstacle avoidance, running over items under about 3 inches. Only 2 of 6 marketing claims passed. The reviewer advised skipping it at full price. The page prints 4.6/10 in one place and 4.8 out of 10 in another. Source
