Man, I can't imagine the amount of time spent here to come up with a proper testing methodology and perform all tests required. Informative, useful and fantastic review.

[jascharadziewski]

This was seriously a great comparison test. I especially liked that you did the cotton ball test, hair tangle test and went full nerd when it came to Home Assistant. Very professionally done! You have added value to my day, thank you sir!

[grahamhogg]

Great review! As a nerdy engineer, I love that you clearly use the scientific method to plan your tests. Keep up the good work. I’ll be shopping for a robot vacuum soon and will watch this video at least a few more times.

This is probably one of the most thorough and to the point comparisons I have ever seen. Not even an ounce of fluff. Thank you for your hard work!

❤😊 excellent professional review. I have been using the Roomba robots since they first came out and the competition has moved ahead of them by quite a margin. To solve the issue of damaging baseboards I have placed a soft White velcro strip on the bumper in front of the robot vacuum. It irritates me that my roombas keep on getting stuck in places they shouldn't and frequently stop working above the stairs. I have concluded that I will not purchase Roombas again. I have gone through four models over the past 15 plus years., and I'm going to watch your video several times before I make my next purchase. 😊 Thank you for sharing your tests with all of us out here . I truly appreciate you're clear solid review.❤

I was looking to buy one for Amazon day but wasn't sure which model I should get - I can't describe how happy I was to see that YOU had a review for these (and only a month old)! You do the singular BEST reviews of products of anyone I've found on YouTube. THANK YOU for the time/energy/effort you put into these videos.

[killuazenitsu]

Thank you for an amazing review. It's the most comprehensive review I've seen, which included the part on how well the cleaning pads are cleansed and ease of cleaning the base stations. These 2 items are incredibly important for real usage and is often left out in reviews. Thank you once again!

[ClaudiaRendonS]

Amazing!! I can't believe you painted and re painted for wall test. Great methodology. Really hats off on the great way to lay it all out. This is the only video I will see to make my decision ! Will use your link! Thanks!

[ToreyGrace]

You truly make the best vacuum videos! The amount of time and patience that you spend doing this is very much appreciated!

I have zero carpet, no pets, and no long haired people. The Narwal Freo has been an absolute dream in my home. My only real complaint is that the mapping feature is a "one shot" approach. If you don't have every space available when you run the initial mapping task, there is no way to update the map to include a new space without starting over from scratch (it doesn't learn / adjust on the fly). Mopping was my main goal with this robot and it does a beautiful job!

[stephaniebailey]

I spent all morning researching robotic floor cleaners. I started a list of my feature requirements then plopped my findings on a spreadsheet and just got confused. I came across this review which seemed to be the most objective, complete and clear. I especially liked the summary which based recommendations in relation to the buyer's most important requirements. I would have appreciated a little more review of the apps (not just smart home connectivity) but my research is now complete. Thank you Hook Up for hooking me up.

This is TRULY the most thorough & detailed robot vacuum video EVEEEER! Thank you for making all the tests realistic to what most people want their vacuums to do, instead of picking up eggshells and macaroni from the ground 😅 you have sold me on the dream tech! I had a roomba sJ7+ and I hated it so much I returned it and that’s how I landed on your channel, trying to find the best mopping robot vacuum for homes with carpet & hardwood floor AND pets 😊

[kylek]

I just purchased a T10 Omni to replace a J7+ (non mop) and pretty much agree with the info here. I tried a little Bona floor cleaner (recommended for Roomba's) mixed in and it did not like that -- mop cleaning failed (complaining about overflow) and traction became a real issue, so much that it would end up driving in circles -- but I might try a lower mix ratio.

The new T20 Omni has the lifting pads now and that is a feature I wish the T10 had because it sorta reduces the purpose of the auto wash if you have multiple hard floors separated by carpet as the robot will not travel across it with mops attached.

Real poor showing from the Lefant given their reply, if you're going to charge above combos (and 3x some top-tier mop only robots), you better have the best performance. Ridiculous pricing from them.

[davidunderwood]

If only I could find review videos like this for all products I look up. Thank you for being so detailed and thorough.

[jamesmantovani]

God I am so happy you said there's no sponsors in this video. I have been trying to research but every review i've seen so far has "this video was sponsored by (xyz)." It just completely invalidates the review. They really talk up the specs of their sponsored robot and never tlak about downsides. Thanks for staying credible.

[TheHookUp]

Slight correction: The Roborock vacuums can work with Alexa to do room specific cleaning using the Roborock app and Roborock skill. The correct verbiage for cleaning a specific room is "Alexa, Ask roborock to clean the {room name}".

[JoooostB]

The amount of effort you put into this video is insane, awesome comparison which makes a purchase decision well founded. Thank you!

[twohassles]

Awesome review! I have owned the Roborock S7 Max Ultra for above a year now... But this is how much I love it..I have bought 2 now, because my first one ran over dog poop, which was the first time my dog has pooped in the house ever and he is 10 yrs old. I had just purchased my Roborock S7 Max Ultra and STUPIDLY I didn't feel like i needed to set the poop detection because my dog has never pooped in the house...long story short.. It was a huge mess, I tried to clean the robot and ended up with "cliff sensor error".. I ended up purchasing another one instead of going through the hassle of trying to get it replaced because I knew it was my fault.. Thats how much I love my Roborock! Even though it was very painful! I would hate to be without it, ever!

[JasonPhipps]

You have helped me with Home Assistant, and now you've proven that I've already got the best RoboRock version. Always appreciate your videos!

[shawnhumphreys]

so happy i made the right purchase! Was a fan of roborocks, but ended up with L10s right on time as Ill be moving in to my first house. The PrimeDay sale made it a no brainer buy + found an extra 5% off coupon code on top of the already amazing price! Thank you for your thoroughly but realistic review as always!
