What reviewers found
Narwal Freo 20 Edge
- Gadget Flow: Three week home test with a shedding dog. Cleared dried coffee and ketchup on the first pass, reached true corners and kept the brush nearly free of hair. Slowed down on a rug. Source
- EFTM: Measured 49 dB quiet, 52 dB standard, 54 dB strong and 60 dB max. Avoided 3 of 4 obstacles but not fake pet waste, stopped at a drop and got stuck on door tracks. Called the mop its standout feature. Source
Narwal Freo Z10 Turbo
- Techaeris (9.4/10): Strong suction on low pile rugs and grout, excellent mopping with good edge reach, and up to 210 minutes on hardwood, but it missed objects under 2 cm and took odd routes between rooms. Source
- Gizmodo: Solid, very quiet vacuuming that outperformed many pricier robots and great battery life, ending a 3 hour vacuum and mop of 750 sq ft with about 40% left, but so so mopping that spread a ketchup spill and clunky app spot cleaning. Source
