SwitchBot K10+ vs SwitchBot K10+ Pro - which one should you buy?

[@EsotericArctos]

I would not upgrade from a K10+ to a K10+ pro. If I was buying new, I would go for teh K10+ Pro. The improved vision and LIDAR makes it worth the small cost. Obviously if budget is tight, the K10+ will be an awesome cleaner. Switchbot may have slightly underpriced the K10+, but it is a great cleaner for the price point. The small form factor and the features make it a very compelling buy. I would not buy the K10+ series if mopping was needed regularly. I see the mopping of the K10's as maybe good for spot mopping, instead of getting a mop and bucket out, but not for regular automated mopping. I'd go the S10 for that, and take the extra hit in cost. All that said, I have a small apartment, I have some tight spaces. The physical size of the K10+ is just something I don't see in other robovacs. The physical size allows it to get into tight spaces. I think the K10 series is pretty awesome for small apartments and for people not needing a lot of mopping. I get the pricing argument, but you can get 2 K10+ Pro's for the price of an S10. I wouldn't need 2 robovacs in a small apartment though. I'd buy the K10+ Pro over the K10+ for the improved LIDAR, the improved camera and the lower maintenance roller system. That makes it worth the price for the use I see it doing. The S10, I can't justify the cost, given the S10 would not get into the smaller spaces the K10 can get into

You should change your channel name to NotEnoughVacuums. 😊

I'd stay away from any vacuum from switchbot. I've an S10 for the last 3 months and it's been one problem after another. Latest firmware update has destroyed it. Keeps dropping WiFi. Can't get it to clean or map . Tech support will not respond to my support tickets. Avoid.

@@dolanspirit probably obvious question but have you tried factory reset of your bot and clearing your app? I had one period of time long time ago when the other switchbot was reporting back as offline but app installation fixed that for me.
