## What reviewers found

### Eureka E20 Evo Plus

- Vacuum Wars (2.46 Vacuum Wars stars): Measured 0.30 kPa suction, 8 CFM, 79% embedded sand, 73% pet hair, 3% hair wrap and about 1,807 sq ft per charge. Finished the studio course in 37 minutes. No dedicated obstacle avoidance and heavy water use when mopping. [Source](https://vacuumwars.com/eureka-e20-evo-plus-review/)
- Garumax (Japan): Home test with a dog and two cats. About 3,000 Pa of the 10,000 Pa max was enough on tile carpet, tatami and wood, and it picked up cat litter on reduced suction. Hair wrap dropped but did not vanish. It avoided bags and balls but struggled with cords and thin slippers. The dock is about 45 cm tall and the mop must be fitted and washed by hand.

### SwitchBot K11+

- TechRadar: Charming, capable vacuum for cramped homes with fast, accurate navigation and a large dock bag; the wipe mop is not worth using, auto empty is noisy and it hit a shoe and sucked up a cable. TechRadar gave a Performance 3.5/5 subscore but no overall rating. [Source](https://www.techradar.com/home/robot-vacuums/switchbot-k11-robot-vacuum-review)
- Tom's Guide: Picked up all kitty litter but struggled with Cheerios; mapping needed about four attempts and the reviewer preferred the cheaper K10+ Pro unless battery life or noise matter most. [Source](https://www.tomsguide.com/home/smart-home/switchbot-k11-robot-vacuum-review)
- Expert Reviews: Near perfect rice pickup on carpet and laminate, but weaker on flour and pet hair; it ran over socks and cables and did not detect a fake dog mess. [Source](https://www.expertreviews.co.uk/home-garden/vacuums-cleaning/switchbot-k11-robot-vacuum-review)
