Longest 100 min runtime with dual batteries and highest 400 AW suction. Premium all-in-one station.
Perfect 4.8/5 carpet score with auto-empty dock at $430. DuoClean dual-roller handles both fine dust and large debris.
Lightest top performer at 3.6 lbs with unique odor neutralizer. Perfect carpet score despite lower weight.
