MOVA Unveils Two €1,399 Flagship Robot Vacuums Split Between Roller and Mop‑Pad Systems
The pairing forces buyers to choose between roller tech that extracts dirty water for tougher stains and mop‑pad designs that extend reach and change upkeep.
Overview
- MOVA launched two top‑tier models sold at the same €1,399 price: the Z70 Ultra Roller Complete using a rotating wischwalze and the V70 Ultra Complete using rotating mop pads.
- The V70 advertises concrete new functions including 40,000 Pa suction, 9 cm obstacle climb, extendable side brushes and mops (up to 16 cm), and a station that washes pads with hot water and dries them.
- Home&smart testing shows the core trade‑off is mechanical: roller systems pump away dirty water and tend to remove dried‑in stains in one pass while mop‑pad systems reach edges and stay more compact but can redistribute soiled water between washes.
- Reviewers stress that navigation, main‑brush design and airflow determine final cleaning results more than headline numbers, that side brushes mainly move dirt to the main brush, and that independent full lab/field tests for the V70 are still pending.
- Competitive pricing is shifting short‑term value: Business Insider reports the Shark PowerDetect NeverTouch Pro is on sale for about €460, a steep drop that gives buyers a cheaper, well‑rated alternative to consider.
