Verdict
Pros & cons
Der Narwal Freo 20 ist ein Wischroboter, der auch saugt: Seine Walze nimmt Kaffee, Tee und Fußspuren streifenfrei in einem Durchgang auf, und die Station wäscht sie mit bis zu 100 °C. Für Wohnungen mit viel Hartboden auf einer Ebene taugt er sehr gut. Der Haken: Feinstaub und Sand bleiben im Teppich, Ecken werden nicht ganz sauber, und an Stufen arbeitet er unsicher.
Pros
- Wischwalze entfernt Kaffee und Tee in einer Überfahrt ohne Schlieren
- Station wäscht die Walze mit bis zu 100 °C und trocknet mit Warmluft
- Auf Hartboden blieben von 50 g Testschmutz nur 6 g liegen
- Haare bis 30 cm ohne Verheddern an der Seitenbürste aufgenommen
- Mit 9,5 cm Bauhöhe passt er unter Betten und niedrige Sideboards
- Wich 23 von 24 Hindernissen aus, etwa Kabel, Schuhe und Socken
Cons
- Auf Teppich bleiben Feinstaub und Sand liegen, bei Sand nur 70 % Aufnahme
- Stürzte in einem Test trotz Absturzsensoren eine Stufe hinunter
- Starre Seitenbürste lässt Krümel in Ecken liegen und schleudert Katzenstreu
- Teppiche nach Kartierung standardmäßig vom Saugen ausgeschlossen, versteckt in der App
- Kleinteile wie Stifte und Bausteine erkennt die Kamera oft nicht
Der Roborock Saros Z70 ist ein sehr gründlicher Saug- und Wischroboter mit starker Station, die Mopps heiß wäscht und den Roboter selbst leert. Auf Hartboden saugt er nahezu restlos, und mit 7,98 cm Bauhöhe kommt er unter viele Sofas. Der Greifarm räumt Socken und Tücher bis 300 g auf, ist aber eher Ausblick als Alltagshilfe. Hast du viel Teppich mit Tierhaaren, lässt er auffällig viele Haare liegen.
Pros
- Saugt auf Hartboden nahezu restlos, in Tests 99,88 von 100 g
- Nur 7,98 cm hoch, reinigt unter niedrigen Sofas und Betten
- Gute Wischleistung bis direkt an die Fußleiste dank ausfahrbarem Mopp
- Station wäscht Mopps mit 80 °C und trocknet mit Warmluft
- Überwindet im Test glatte Schwellen bis 3,1 cm
- Greifarm räumt Socken und Handtücher bis 300 g in die Box
Cons
- Schwache Haaraufnahme auf Teppich, in einem Test blieben 0,87 von 1 g liegen
- Greifarm langsam, erkennt nur bekannte Objekte und legt nicht immer zuverlässig ab
- Staubbehälter im Roboter fasst nur 0,18 l
- Kein fester Wasseranschluss, beide Tanks bleiben Handarbeit
- Knapper Lieferumfang ohne Reinigungsmittel, Ersatzbürsten oder Zusatzmopps
