How we review

Every robot goes through the same four steps

Our full method →

  1. Check it's really sold here

    AU stock, AU plug, a local warranty and a retailer you can return it to.

  2. Live with it

    Weeks in a real home with kids, pets, rugs, cords and Aussie dust.

  3. Measure what matters

    Runtime in minutes, noise in dB, coverage in m², bin changes per month.

  4. Recheck the price

    We compare AUD prices across retailers and update picks when they move.

Built for Australian buyers

Global reviews miss the things that matter here

An overseas review won't tell you if the dock has an Australian plug, whether the app works on local Wi-Fi bands, or who fixes it in Perth. We do.
