Price History
Price last checked Jul 2, 2026. Amazon prices change frequently — click through for the current price.
The Q0120 at its $130 to $150 sale price picks up pet hair and dust on hard floors, but a 25% one-star rate warns of deeper problems. It navigates by bumping into things, cannot block rooms or map, and several units fixate on one ledge or corner until the battery dies. Charging dock contact defects appear across multiple replacement units, and the bot is loud enough to disrupt TV. Buyers who get a working unit and pre-clear their floors like the low profile under couches and the simple app start.

Buyer concerns

- ✗Bangs walls and chair legs hard; too loud for night runs or TV watching
