Up to three

All robot vacuums. Every figure below is placed against the whole class, so a gap can be read against how much the class itself varies.

Where each one suits you.

The conditions each robot was assessed against, side by side. Rows marked in gold are where these machines genuinely differ.

Fit verdicts by condition for each robot
Condition SwitchBot K11+ Pro SwitchBot K11+
Home size
Under 1,500 sqft GoodCompact body and about 120 minutes of runtime cover sub-1,500 sqft homes comfortably in one pass. GoodA 248 mm body with LiDAR mapping and an auto-empty dock suits compact layouts.
1,500 – 3,000they differ GoodRoute planning and 120 minutes of runtime cover most mid-size homes; very open layouts near 3,000 sqft approach the limit. DependsRated coverage is 225 square meters, about 2,400 square feet, in quiet mode; the upper half of this range sits near that limit.
Over 3,000 DependsRuntime near 120 minutes with no documented recharge-and-resume may need a mid-clean recharge in homes this large. DependsRated coverage tops out near 2,400 square feet per charge, and recharge-and-resume is not documented in this record.
Primary floors
Hard floors Good12,000 Pa suction and route planning handle sealed hard floors well, with a light mop pass on top. GoodA vacuum with a rubber main brush and LiDAR mapping suits sealed hard floors, which it cannot mop.
Low / medium pilethey differ GoodSuction clears low-pile carpet, and the anti-tangle brush helps keep pet hair from wrapping. DependsThe 6,000 Pa rating is a maker figure, and no independent low-pile carpet test was located.
High pile / shag DependsNo independent coverage of deep or shag pile was found; 12,000 Pa may leave embedded debris in thick carpet. DependsNo independent high-pile test was located, and a small body leaves less margin on thick carpet.
Mopping needs
Vacuum only GoodVacuums first; the mop pad is optional. GoodVacuum-only robot — matches a vacuum-only need.
Light moppingthey differ GoodFlat mop pad handles light, routine wiping of hard floors. PoorThis model has no mopping function.
Frequent moppingthey differ DependsA dragged pad freshens floors but lacks the pressure or scrubbing for heavy, frequent mopping. PoorNo mop at all; choose a vacuum-and-mop robot instead.
Upkeep you accept
Regular upkeep GoodAbout 40 minutes of upkeep a month. GoodAbout 30 minutes of upkeep a month.
Some upkeep GoodAbout 40 minutes of upkeep a month. GoodAbout 30 minutes of upkeep a month.
Minimal upkeepthey differ DependsAbout 40 minutes of upkeep a month. Minimal is 30 or less. GoodAbout 30 minutes of upkeep a month, and the dock empties the bin.

A robot being poor for a condition is a fact about fit, not a fault. “Depends” means the record names a limit worth reading, not that the answer is unknown.
