Detailed Test Results

This quiet vac excelled at cleaning and navigating our bare floors. It seemed to clean in a random pattern even though it claims to use different modes to optimize cleaning. This vac may not be as efficient as some of the other models in that its movements do not seem as calculated, but its multiple passes on our floors accounts for its excellent navigation score. We noticed that its dual side brushes scattered debris but the vac eventually picked it up after another pass. With a very slim profile height of under 3 inches, it was low enough to get under our test furniture with room to spare. The vacuum seemed pretty powerful picking up pet hair in one pass. A lot of hair was wound tightly around the spiral combo brush/rubber blade which was not easy to clean. The long, dual side brushes are very effective at cleaning edges. Robot will only get close enough to clean edges when it switched to perimeter mode. The robot's side brushes got caught a few times in electrical cords but the robot avoided getting trapped in rug fringe. It easily climbed over a .5 inch threshold. Features: Spot cleaning, edge cleaning, max clean (auto with max suction), single room cleaning and scheduled daily cleaning modes. Boost IQ has floor sensing technology. This is not a connected model and therefore not compatible with the App. Battery: Li-ion (14.4V, 2600 mAh, 36Wh) Includes: Two extra side brushes, one extra filter and a cleaning tool for the brushroll, remote, docking station, zip ties to help organize wires. It has a 1 year limited warranty.

About

Carpet: Shows how much surface litter (cereal, rice, and peas) and embedded dust the vacuum picked up from a medium-pile carpet.

Bare floors: Indicates the vacuum's ability to remove surface debris from a bare laminate floor.

Navigation: A composite score that includes combined coverage over multiple runs, clearance under furniture and obstacle and entrapment avoidance.
