How We Test Products

Our testing methodology is designed to give everyday users clarity and confidence.

Core Measurements

• Noise levels (dB)
• Cleaning performance (streak tests, suction tests, residue analysis)
• Coverage area (sq ft)
• Capacity (oz, quarts, liters)
• Energy use (watts)
• Build quality and durability
• Ease of setup, cleaning, and maintenance

Testing Environments

• Small kitchens
• Apartments
• Bedrooms and open-area living spaces
• Bathrooms and tile/grout zones

When hands-on testing isn’t possible, we rely on verified lab data, owner feedback, and cross-validated independent studies.
