Narwal Flow vs Narwal Flow 2

The Narwal Flow and the Narwal Flow 2 share the FlowWash track mop, rinsed with fresh water as it rolls, and Narwal sells one replacement mop for both. They also share the 95 mm body with no turret and two cameras with an AI chip for obstacles, and both docks empty the bin into a 120-day bag, wash the mop with hot water and refill the robot's tank.

The Flow 2 has 31,000 Pa against 22,000, and Narwal describes four carpet modes for it. It mops with 60 °C water against 45 °C, and its dock washes the mop at 100 °C, where Narwal gives the Flow's dock hot-water self-cleaning but no mop-wash temperature. Its dock also doses detergent; with the Flow's standard dock you add it to the clean-water tank by hand. Its battery holds 7,000 mAh against 6,400, with no runtime per charge published for either, and it is the only one of the two with a noise figure, under 56.5 dB.

The Flow has the lower standard dock, 461 mm tall against 530 mm, which can decide whether it fits under a shelf, and on hard floors with low rugs it mops with the same roller, but with cooler water. Both pages print a 40 mm threshold, but Narwal's FAQ for the Flow narrows it to a two-step sill, with 30 mm for a single one, the figure in the table, and advises carpets under 20 mm thick; the Flow 2's pages say neither, so its 40 mm stands as printed. With carpet, pet hair or greasy kitchen floors, the Flow 2's extra suction and hotter water are the changes that count.
