What reviewers found
Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow
- CyberShack (8.7/10): Excellent hard floor vacuuming at 91% to 95% and good mopping close to skirting, above average on short and medium pile carpet, but weak on carpet pet hair and no edge or corner cleaning on carpet. Measured 100 to 125 minutes of real runtime. Source
- Gizmodo: Called the roller mop the most powerful robot mop it had tested where it can reach, with good hair and sand pickup, but edge gaps of around 8 inches at times, a swallowed USB C cord and sock, and limited battery for large homes. Source
SwitchBot S20
- TechRadar: Effective roller mop and strong obstacle avoidance, but louder than average in every mode, regular docking failures and some erratic navigation. Subscores: Value 3.5/5, Design 4/5, Performance 3/5, App 3.5/5. Source
- Expert Reviews: Picked up 50 of 50 g rice and 5 of 5 g pet hair on hard floor, 29.4 of 50 g flour on carpet, and removed dried mud in two passes and ketchup in three. Measured 65 dBA at 1 m. Source
