-
The base reliably auto empties the bin and cleans the roller with hot wash and hot air drying.
-
Excellent carpet pet hair pickup, posting one of the best 2.5 inch test results among combo robots.
-
Active combs in the brush housing prevent tangles, remaining tangle free even in long hair tests.
-
Roller mop delivers high dried stain scores and leaves less residual water than typical pad designs.
-
Self cleaning functions include roller washing and heated drying between runs to limit odors and buildup.
-
Suction performance is well above average on max and notably stronger than comparable flagships like the Saros 10.
-
The app supports multi level maps, virtual boundaries, granular bin settings, and detailed scheduling.
-
An automatically extending side brush improves corner coverage and performed well in tests.
-
In dried on stain tests the roller mop removed most stuck on grime, scoring slightly above average and beating comparable pad based robots like the Saros 10.
-
Because it recovers more water as it cleans, floors are left only lightly damp after mopping and tend to dry faster than with pad style systems.
-
The roller mop system sprays solution and squeegees excess into a tank, handling fresh liquid spills more effectively and with less spreading than spinning or single pad mops.
-
The mop lifts 10 mm on carpets to prevent wetting and enables efficient mixed floor runs.
-
Overall the S14 Plus ranks as a high scoring flagship with excellent mopping, strong suction and robust app control, offset mainly by below average battery life and only average navigation.
-
Delivers flagship features at a lower price than close twins, offering strong overall value.
-
The roller mop leaves minimal streaking or residue on hard floors compared with spinning or single pad designs that can smear dirty water.
-
The S14 Plus uses an extending roller module to improve edge and baseboard coverage, delivering edge cleaning that rivals or beats spinning pad robots on hard floors.
-
Hard floor pickup is strong overall but side brush scatter with large debris can reduce efficiency.
-
Obstacle avoidance scores are above average with modern camera and structured light sensors, though they still trail the slightly better performing Saros 10.
-
The S14 Plus dock manages clean and dirty water tanks for the roller mop and automates refills, though it omits the automated detergent mixing found on its Ecovacs twin.
