4.1/5
A cheap self-emptying LiDAR robot for small homes that mostly want vacuuming. Light mopping is a bonus, not a reason to buy it.

Pros
- Empties itself into a 3.5 L bag, so it goes months between bag changes
- LiDAR mapping and front obstacle sensing at an entry-level price
- Only 100 mm tall, so it fits under most sofas and beds
- Works with Alexa and Google Assistant
Cons
- The mop pad is a basic drag pad that you rinse by hand
- Narwal doesn’t publish runtime
- 8,000 Pa suction is modest next to pricier robots
- Climbs only 20 mm thresholds
