Narwal Robot Vacuum and Mop

Narwal is a relative newcomer to the robotic vacuum market. It offers a sweeping/mopping hybrid that is pretty impressive. It's also costly and hobbled by a clunky app with a steep curve.

To mop, drop an ointment sheet into the base station's clean water tank. Then it makes use of clean water to wash the pads and scrub floors with 10N pressure.

Features

The Narwal T10 is a combination bissell Robot Vacuum mop and vacuum that can sweep clean, scrub, and scrub hard floors. Its smart navigation and mapping system is based on simultaneous localization (SLAM) technologies. It also comes with anti-collision, anti-cliff-sensing and cliff-sen technologies that help to prevent the machine from falling down stairs or hitting furniture. In addition, it can detect and avoid rugs, which can be a common issue for many hybrid robot mop vacuum combo vacuums and mops.

The robot is equipped with two large water tanks: one to keep clean water and one for dirty. It will automatically soak the pads in clean water prior to mopping. During the mopping process, sensors will notify you when it's time to change the pads and refill water. It uses 16 ounces, which is less water than other robots.

Once you've cleaned the dirt off the mop pads, the T10 will return to its base station, and will auto-dry them to avoid cross-contamination. Then, it will resume its mopping job the same way it stopped. This eliminates the need for hand washing by hand, which is a big plus, as it protects your hands from bacterial and allergens. This feature is unique to Narwal. The majority of robot vacuum/mop hybrids dip their mop heads in buckets of dirty sand.

The T10's mopping function is powered by a motor that turns the pad 3 times per second. This gives a more thorough clean especially around corners and around edges. The rotating pad and two side brushes sweep dirt, hair and other debris into vacuum slots. This eliminates the need for a dustbin and is much more environmentally sustainable than traditional vacuuming.

You can design a map of your area and mark specific areas to mop or sweep. You can also choose the intensity of cleaning, such as a deep clean that eliminates dirt and other debris for an efficient job. You can also set up "no-go zones" to tell the robot not to walk over area rugs and other obstacles.

Design

Robot vacuums can help keep your home clean, hygienic and orderly. They are able to reach and clean areas that traditional vacuums are unable to, such as underneath furniture. They can also remove dirt, germs and allergens that could make you sick. They can be programmed to clean on a regular basis and so you don't need to think about how to clean it yourself. They can also be placed where people cannot, like under the kitchen sink or in the corners of the house. They're dust bunnies' eradicators and keep your floors clean of dirt and germs.

Narwal is distinct from other robot vacuums due to the fact that it's a mopping machine with a vacuuming function added on. The huge water tanks enable it to clean vast areas of your floor without worrying about emptying the tank. It has mopping options where you can select from a variety of levels of intensity to get rid of stubborn stains.

The robot's navigation is powered by LIDAR and SLAM technology which allows it to create maps of your space. It can then use those to guide it around your home, laying out a zig-zag cleaning path that ensures a thorough cleaning and avoids cross-contamination. It also comes with anti-collision sensors and cliff sensors to stop it from colliding with tables or falling down stairs.

As with most robotic vacuums the Narwal T10 can be controlled through the narwal app or via voice commands. The Narwal T10 features small LED screens that shows the current status. Two buttons with touch sensors are located on either side of the vacuum. They can be used to control docking, create maps, as well as stopping and starting. The app is where you can adjust your cleaning settings and set up scheduled mopping.

It also has a switch to switch between mopping and vacuuming modes. This is helpful if you have dirty floors and need to clean them fast. It's got an 1800-pa motor that is good at sucking up dirt, however, it struggles to get rid of debris from carpets and rug.

Performance

The Narwal Freo does an amazing job cleaning hard floors. Its huge water tanks are easy to maintain, and it comes with a variety of mopping intensity settings. It can also remove small messes or spills from carpet. The vacuuming abilities are less impressive. Its suction power of 1,800Pa is a bit lower than more expensive robo-vacuums, such as the Roborock S6 MaxV Ultra.

The Freo's intelligent mapping and navigation technology gives it the ability to adapt to the environment and plan an optimized cleaning program. It utilizes simultaneous mapping and localization (SLAM) to create a map of the area and then work in a zigzag pattern to prevent cross-contamination and ensure a uniform finish. It is then able to share this map with the narwal app, so you can modify cleaning settings and set no-go zones to keep it from mopping or vacuuming certain areas.

Once the Freo is mapped and mapped, it will continue cleaning where it left. Its mops are self-cleaning, and they return to their dock after each use for rinsing and drying. This saves time, and it keeps hands out of contact with dirt and allergens. The Freo also conserves water by only using 16 ounces of water each mopping cycle, which is around the same amount as you'd find in a large-sized coffee cup.

This robot can effortlessly switch from mopping to vacuuming. It's an excellent choice for those who have both in their home. It has excellent sweeping abilities and is capable of cleaning up pet hair and other debris. Dual side brushes on the Freo allow it to reach corners better than single-brush vacuums. Its cliff-sensing, anti-collision and anti-stuck functions also help it avoid getting stuck or hitting furniture.

The Narwal T10 is more expensive than its competition and is still a reliable vacuum/mop unit. Its base station is house to two 1.3 gallon tanks that require frequent refilling. This can be very frustrating especially if your robotic has a tank that fills faster. The app is cluttered and uninspiring, and lacks the features of customization you'd expect from a machine that costs more.

App

The Narwal robot vacuum and mop is a standout among the many all-in-one robot vacuums and mops that are available. While many others boast impressive mopping and Bissell Robot Vacuum vacuuming capabilities, with a mopping feature added on the T10 was created to be a self-cleaning machine from the ground up. Its sweeping, mopping and other features are effective and easy to control via the narwal mobile app. Buttons on the base station allow for manual adjustments during cleaning.

The Narwal robot vacuum is powered by Lidar and SLAM technologies that make it one of the most advanced cleaning machines on the market. It uses its sensors for mapping out your home and converts this data into a detailed floor plan of cleaning. This is a great feature, and it helps the T10 not to get lost and keeps track of its activities while working in your home.

Narwal also has the capability to create "no-go" zones. Set up no-go zones in the app so that the T10 avoid certain areas during cleaning sessions. This is helpful if you have area rugs that you don't want the T10 to vacuum or mop on.

Its self-cleaning features are also impressive, since the T10 will periodically return to its docking station to wash and resoak its mopping pads. The cleaning system for the pads keeps you from having to soak your mop in dirty water and keeps it free of germs during mopping sessions.

The narwal mop is also designed with a triangular form that covers a larger surface area, allowing for a thorough cleaning in corners and small spaces. The two side brushes assist trap hair and dirt, and remove them from the floor, so they don't get stuck in your vacuum, or drain the battery.

In contrast to other robotic vacuums unlike other models, Narwal is unique in that Narwal does not come with a powerful beater bar that can dislodge dirt and debris stuck in carpets. Instead it relies on its sophisticated sensors to recognize and clean hard surfaces such as wet spots and stains effortlessly. The narwal vacuum and mop is also highly energy-efficient and is a good choice for late-night cleaning. The high-efficiency motor reduces the noise level.
