Pros & cons

SwitchBot K10+

  • 9.76 in diameter reaches spots every standard robot skips
  • Genuinely quiet — 48 dB quiet mode can run during video calls
  • Self-empty base with 4 L bag despite the tiny body
  • Proper LiDAR SLAM mapping with no-go zones in the app
  • 150-minute quiet-mode runtime belies its size
  • Works with Alexa, Google, and (via hub) Apple ecosystems
  • 2500 Pa max is weak for deep carpet cleaning
  • Mopping is disposable wet wipes on a pad plate — a consumable gimmick
  • Tiny 150 ml onboard bin depends entirely on the base
  • No camera obstacle avoidance — cables and clutter still get eaten
  • Small brush path means longer runs in bigger rooms

SwitchBot K11+

  • Self-empty station is unusually compact - about the size of a sheet of paper
  • LDS LiDAR navigation instead of basic gyroscope bump-sensing
  • 6000 Pa suction is a real step up from SwitchBot's entry K10+
  • 4L bag rated for up to 90 days before it needs changing
  • Matter support means it works with Apple Home, Alexa, or Google Home natively
  • Vacuum only - no mopping at all
  • No carpet detection or multi-floor mapping
  • SwitchBot doesn't publish battery runtime, noise level, weight, or dimensions
  • No Amazon listing found that wasn't a bundle or accessory - buy direct from SwitchBot
