The extending mop and side brush clean close to walls, cabinets and baseboards exceptionally well. This is one of the most consistent strengths across lab tests and everyday use.
Pros: Overall opinion, Obstacle Avoidance (Robot)
Cons: Price and Value, Stuck resistance
Edge cleaning is very good, reaching close to baseboards from multiple sides. It can still leave a small margin at the wall, but most hands-on use found it substantially better...
Pros: Self-cleaning cycle, Overall opinion
Cons: Emptying and Mess Control, Price and Value
Edge and baseboard mopping was generally positive, with reviewers noting wall and cabinet edges received attention.
Pros: Mopping performance, Dried-On Stain Removal
Cons: Map and Path Efficiency (Robot Vacuums), Price and Value
Edge and baseboard cleaning is repeatedly praised as improved, close, or solid, though corner precision is not perfect.
Pros: Dried-On Stain Removal, Mop lifting system
Cons: Emptying and Mess Control
Edge and baseboard cleaning improved with extending mop/edge systems, though some evidence still described edge reach as imperfect.
Pros: Overall opinion, Suction and Airflow
Edge performance varies more than the central cleaning results. Some units clean close to baseboards, while others leave visible gaps because the robot rides too far from walls.
Pros: Overall opinion, Mopping performance
Cons: Support and Reliability, Price and Value
Extendable mop and brush hardware usually cleans close to skirting boards and furniture edges. Vacuum-only edge pickup can still leave scattered debris, so results are better than basic round robots...
Pros: Suction and Airflow, Obstacle Avoidance (Robot)
Cons: Streaking / Residue, Solution / Liquid system
Edge and baseboard cleaning was mixed: the extending roller reached close to edges, but corners, quarter-round molding, and some edge cases remained weak.
Pros: Overall opinion, Mopping performance
Cons: Obstacle Avoidance (Robot), Dried-On Stain Removal
Edge and baseboard cleaning was often praised for reaching walls, counters, and table legs, but one vacuum-only edge flour test performed poorly.
Pros: Overall opinion, Mopping performance
Cons: Price and Value, AI, Smart, App and Automation
Edge cleaning can be excellent on high power, but another test found the main head left enough debris to require the crevice tool. Results appear dependent on power setting and...
Pros: AI, Smart, App and Automation, Emptying and Mess Control
Cons: Dock noise, Battery and Charging
Edge and baseboard cleaning was mixed, with strong side-brush/baseboard praise offset by reports that the side mop rides up on some moldings.
Pros: Overall opinion, Obstacle Avoidance (Robot)
Cons: Map and Path Efficiency (Robot Vacuums), Heating element
Edge and baseboard cleaning is the most repeated weakness. The extending mop can get very close, but many homes still see thin missed strips, scattered debris, or a need for...
Pros: Mopping performance, Overall opinion
Cons: Edge and Baseboard Cleaning (Hard Floors), Price and Value
Side-edge pickup is better than expected, but the pointed front shape needs extra angling and repeated passes to collect debris directly ahead of the head.
Pros: Overall opinion, Price and Value
Cons: Comparative performance, Emptying and Mess Control
Edge and baseboard cleaning was one of the repeated limitations, with reviewers noting missed toe spaces, wall edges and clear lines left behind.
Pros: Overall opinion, AI, Smart, App and Automation
Cons: Obstacle Avoidance (Robot), Hair‑Wrap / Tangle Resistance
Edge cleaning was a clear weakness in the hands-on review because the roller could not clean all the way to room edges.
Pros: Weight, Low-profile design
Cons: Overall opinion, Price and Value
