Low-profile design

Low 3.2 inch profile with front facing lidar allows clearance under lower furniture pieces without a turret, helping it reach areas many traditional lidar robots miss.

Lower profile without a top nav hat helps the robot reach under low furniture, giving it a slimline shape that fits easily into tight, hard to reach spaces.

Reviewers highlight that relocating the lidar to the robot’s front keeps the S1 Pro unusually low in height, letting it glide under many sofas and cabinets that taller turret-style bots miss and reducing how often it gets hung up on furniture.

Low-profile floorhead can lie very flat (around 2.5 inches tall), helping it reach under furniture and cabinets more easily than bulkier heads.

Thanks to its very low 78 millimeter profile and flat top, the Saros 10R easily slides under beds, sofas, and cabinets that block taller robots, and its StarSight navigation helps it judge which tight spaces it can safely enter without getting wedged.

A slightly thinner, smaller body than the S14 Plus lets the M14 Plus glide under more sofas and low furniture, improving coverage in tight spaces.

The Saros 10’s retracting LiDAR tower allows it to stay low enough to reach under more furniture while still raising its sensor mast when needed for full room scanning and navigation.

Low profile (around 79 mm cited) helps it fit under furniture.

Low-profile body (under about 4 inches in some reviews) can fit under many furniture pieces; the LiDAR turret design aims to reduce snagging under low clearance areas.

At about 3.4 inches tall it is lower-profile than many premium hybrids and can fit under more furniture; the Auto-Fill dock footprint is still substantial and needs clearance.

The robot is described as relatively low-profile (often cited around 96mm tall), helping it fit under many cabinets and furniture pieces. This improves coverage in low-clearance areas compared with taller robots.

At roughly 4.4–4.5 inches tall due to the LiDAR dome, the robot is chunkier than some rivals and may not fit under low-clearance furniture.

The X8 Pro Omni trades a tall lidar tower for a front sensor array and 3.9-inch height that helps it slide under many sofas and beds and climb common thresholds, though it still cannot fit under some very low furniture and its wide circular footprint can occasionally wedge in tight gaps.

Because it retains a lidar nav turret on top, the X10 Pro sits taller than nav-hat-free rivals and may not duck under the very lowest furniture as easily, though its overall footprint is still manageable.

It’s described as on the taller side for a LiDAR robot (around 3.8–4 inches), making it less low-profile than some competitors. This can restrict access under very low furniture.

At around 3.8 inches tall, the X9 Pro Omni sits a bit higher than many robot vacuums, which can limit its ability to reach under very low clearance furniture.

Despite using internal LiDAR the body is slightly taller than the average robot, so real gains in under furniture reach are limited.
