"It offers flagship features for a mid-range price, with attendant reliability questions."
The '19,000Pa suction' claim refers to the motor's potential power in a lab, not the real-world suction delivered to your floor, which is always a fraction of that number after accounting for airflow path losses.
This is for the feature-per-dollar shopper who wants top-tier automation like hot-water mop washing and advanced object avoidance without the flagship price. It makes a strong case for pet owners, provided they are willing to manually swap in the anti-tangle TriCut brush.
Buyers who prioritize proven long-term reliability over a dense feature list should be cautious, as more moving parts invite more failure points. Anyone who finds manually switching main brushes tedious will lose a key benefit. The lack of 5GHz Wi-Fi is also a minor but real inconvenience for some modern networks.
