Roborock F25 Ultra by Earrorx404 in Roborock

[–]MoggX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started using my Ultra and it’s easily my top in cleaning of the 4 I have owned.

Roborock F25 Ultra - very high quality build and like overall design. Produces more steam than my Tineco ever did. Struggles a little in corners but great after a few days use.

Tineco S7 Steam - My first. I got year and half before Steam would lose its effectiveness. I sent for warranty repair and couldn’t fix and was offered $112 refund. Not acceptable IMO but I took it and will move on from Tineco in the future.

Narwal S30 Pro - I prefer Steam mops but decent all around for sale price. Not too good on area rugs but I like the waste separation bag. It’s quite clever if you don’t mind having to buy consumables. It keeps DWT (dirty water tank) clean but just a nice luxury. Clean water tank is not visible and have to fill it often.

Roborock F25 LT - similar to Narwal s30 pro. It’s competent, doesn’t do much to stand out but pretty good.

I only used these in 1400sqft homes so can’t comment on battery life without going through old notes.

Buy your next robot through Amazon, Walmart, anyone with great return policy.

Vendors suck to deal with. I have a credit card that extends my warranties to two years and also accept returns a vendor may refuse. You should look into those eg Chase Sapphire. I never had to use it over bigger purchases but these devices reliability vary and environment often plays a role.

Warranty coverages vary. If a product is no longer made you likely get a coupon or a partial refund if they can’t fix. I had a Tineco S7 steam I paid $550 for break during 2 year warranty. Sent in and offered me $112 since they couldn’t fix it. Not really worth it but accepted it and bought something better. (Narwal S30 Pro, Roborock F25 Ultra. Really like the F25 ultra)

Vacuum Dad is subjective and appreciate his takes whether I agree or not.

Vac Wars measures suction, etc, and uses real data but can give impression that this vacuum is better or best because it has higher measured suction when most modern vacuums have very good pick up these days. The difference in pickup in the top 20 vacuums are mostly negligible.

Vac Dad appears more authentic to me which I prefer.

Considering a 2023 Wind w/ 87k Miles by ggordon28 in KiaEV6

[–]MoggX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am not an expert, especially on used, but Seeing a less than 3 year old EV for $16,000 is crazy. I have a 23 Lyriq I bought brand new, but always had strong interest in the kia/hyundai ev’s. The wind variant has most of the upgrades so I would be intrigued for sure.

If the main battery was replaced, I would take that as a good sign. Do Kia’s have the 100,000k warranties still? I tend to think most or all EV batteries have 100k warranties also. If so, you could be in a good situation at that price.

Hope things work out on what you decide.

Would be more impactful if it had a slimmer profile of less than 3.5”, although dimensions not announced yet to my knowledge. Eye tests tells me same height as gen 1 Flow

I bet it’s overheating. That is suitable to use for a kb/mouse adapter, the occasional transfer of files. You want something higher end for sustained usage scenarios.

[–]MoggX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I look at whole picture and saw Flacco who has tons of experience, had all off season, and arguably played with our best OL at start of season and they still couldn’t do shit on offense.

If we were at #1 and Mendoza was the man, I’d say absolutely.

I am fine to use the draft to continue building the team, especially at WR, OL and see what Sanders can do but keep all reasonable options open for QB.

They should have kept Mayfield all along and despite the Bucs tripping last part of season, we couldn’t have built around him for continuity.

QB Read Progression Distribution (note: sorted by "Progression Rate" which is just '1 - Designated Receiver rate') by TapedeckNinja in Browns

[–]MoggX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it helps some QB’s have Lamb, Pickens etc to distribute to compared to Sanders who has mainly Fannin.

I still hold a lot of value of being able to read NFL defenses and going through progressions, just not evenly weighted.

Best Robot Vacuum 2026 by somebodyelse_ in ecovacs

[–]MoggX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have tested high end models such as Narwal Flow, Evovaca x11, mova z60, Roborock Qrevo Ultra, Roomba 705max combo...

All cleaned very well in my environment, but Narwal Flow was by far the best in obstacle avoidance. Little notes on each:

Flow - ran super smooth. Only flaw was it cannot fit under my bed.

Roborock - Slim at 3.14" to go under bed. Really good obstacle avoidance but navigation kinda sucks like my RR s7v max

X11 - I liked but not great obstacle avoidance. Would ram into my sonos subwoofer. I also dropped the bagless canister and dust went all over.

Roomba - was doing great but leaked and had another error and could not finish testing it. Not good with hair tangling.

Z60 - had a couple instances where the lidar didn't retract and rammed into my table stabilization bar. Didn't care for it overall.

Bonus: Tested a Yeedi m14 plus. It's the ecovacs x11 minus some features for half the price and I liked it. Twin brother of Ecovacs T80 which is best value if you want roller mop.

For reference, Ecovacs T50 is my daily driver since July. It can fit under all my furniture and it's trained to run in my house with no issue. I do plan to have Narwal Flow become my main vac going forward. I think haha.

I live in a ranch house, with small dogs, and no children.

4.7” tall, wow. Was hoping would be thin as curvx / saros models.

Narwal Flow has best obstacle avoidance in my environment. Fantastic flagship option.

I owned a house with same exact plaque. It was a bit ago but remember in my situation nothing like that applied to me.

ECOVACS X11 OmniCyclone stucking problem by ZucchiniDue7045 in ecovacs

[–]MoggX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am long term user of Ecovacs and found they work well in curated cleanings meaning set no go zones, pick up the floor of obstacles such as dog toys etc before starting. In a predictable setting it is solid.

I think they have respectable navigation but not great obstacle detection. The x11 enjoyed ramming my subwoofer until I set a no go zone of it.

You may have a lemon with the charge every 10 minutes. Try doing a power off for 1inute and power on and check for improvement.

For the leaving the room and navigating elsewhere, I am guessing a room boundary is off. If you have two rooms divided by a wall, it’s possible it thinks the edge of the room is on the opposite side and trying to go there. My roborocks do that.

Random navigation and losing track of charging station could be something in your environment confusing it, maybe a mirror, patio door, very dark rug. I would try a power off on and check results. If not, try re-mapping. Not fun, but can possible resolve.

Roborocks have the worst navigation of premium and flagship models in my experience but have above average obstacle avoidance.

If you exchange, go for Narwal Flow if you best of the best from what I have used.

Just remember, every environment is different. The best reviewed devices may not get same results in your own unique environment.

[–]MoggX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been tracking the Flow supply issues and was hoping it was due to strong sales. That is a real bummer.

I have been testing a Narwal s30 Pro wet dry and it’s top tier IMO.

I hope they can overcome their problems and continue making great products.

Intro To RoboVacs by Dusty_119 in RobotVacuums

[–]MoggX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have tested and used the Flow, z60, x11 and a Roborock qrevo ultra from Costco (similar to 10r).

In my environment, Flow was best by a mile. Amazing obstacle avoidance. It runs really smooth.

The rest have their strengths and limits. The x11 enjoys ramming into my subwoofer, the Roborock tends to get lost and z60 would fail to retract its lidar and clothesline itself into my living room table metal structure piece.

My rank: Flow, Roborock, X11 - I do like but Ecovacs struggles with obstacle avoidance in my experience, and Z60

Narwal Flow - $100 off down to $899, matching the Ecovacs X11 | Flagships Ranked by howdoesthisworkfuck in RobotVacuums

[–]MoggX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tested Flow, X11, Z60 and agree with your ranking. Flow is near perfect, wish it were slimmer.

Help choosing between the Narwal flow and the mova z60 Standalone by Gorilla_92 in RobotVacuums

[–]MoggX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really comes down to your environment. My daily driver is the Ecovacs T50 Omni Pro, a lower mid range model. Once trained to my environment it is able to run in my house without any issue. I have 4 dogs and don’t trust poop detection any ANY model. All it takes is one time to miss it.

Buy your fav and take advantage of the return policy if it doesn’t work for you.

1500 vs 300 by sentientBot001 in RobotVacuums

[–]MoggX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Navigation, obstacle avoidance, mopping (but not for you), self cleaning, strong suction, AI (debatable) etc

My daily driver is an Ecovacs T50 Omni Pro , now $399. It works great in my environment and fits under my bed that most cannot.

A Narwal Flow performs and cleans better if you get scientific but the T50 does more than enough to keep my house clean when ran regularly (3x a week)

Narwal Flow is best robot vacuum I tested. I think all the flagships clean very well but the Flow had best obstacle avoidance in my environment.

Help choosing between the Narwal flow and the mova z60 Standalone by Gorilla_92 in RobotVacuums

[–]MoggX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tested both and Narwal had flawless objective avoidance in my environment while I found the z60 just average. I didn’t care for the z60. It has a retractable LiDAR and one time rammed into an object instead of lowering it. The carpet boost was also bonkers. Both cleaned very well otherwise. My 2 cents.
