Controls and UI were generally praised for deep customization, room and zone controls, virtual walls, scheduling, and app detail.

Hard-floor edge and baseboard cleaning was a strong point, with extending brushes and mops reaching edges effectively.

Heavy-duty use looked promising in tests with exaggerated cleaning jobs, muddy messes, and a torture test.
