The Sweet Spot
The $300-$600 price range represents the sweet spot between basic and premium models. For this price, you get LiDAR navigation for precise mapping, suction power around 4000-6000 Pa, and often basic mopping functionality.
Most models in this category offer app control with advanced features like no-go zones, cleaning schedules, and smart assistant integration (Alexa, Google).
The main compromise compared to premium models is the lack of fully-equipped docking stations - auto-empty and mop washing are found in more expensive models.
