The docked vacuum we would leave running. The mop is a damp pad, not a floor crew.

A docked vacuum still does more unsupervised work than a waitlisted humanoid. The Q7 M5+ is our pick because the dock is the feature that makes you leave it running. Sale price around $249.99 against a higher list.

Buy it for an apartment you will not babysit. Skip it if you need mopping that washes its own pads. That is the Dreame X50 Ultra in our vacuums guide, and it costs a lot more.
