Narwal Freo Z10 Ultra review

Our verdict
The Freo Z10 Ultra is the Narwal for anyone who prefers a LiDAR turret and a proven design to the new roller. It positions with 360° LiDAR building a four-layer 3D map, avoids obstacles with two 136° cameras and two AI chips, mops with Reuleaux-triangle pads that twist out to the edge, and a dirt sensor works a patch until the water runs clean. On carpet it lifts the pads 12 mm and raises suction by 160%, and the DualFlow brushes carry an SGS certificate for zero tangling. The dock washes with hot water, dries the pads, stores dust for 120 days and is billed as ultra-quiet. The battery is fully specified: 6,400 mAh at 14.4 V, 92 Wh, in a 4.5 kg body. The 18,000 Pa is modest beside the Flow line, the turret takes the height to 110 mm, and bin, tank, noise, runtime and threshold height are unpublished.
Pros
- 360° LiDAR with a four-layer 3D map plus two 136° cameras
- Triangular mops that extend to the edge and a sensor that mops until clean

Cons
- 18,000 Pa, the lowest of the Narwal flagships
- 110 mm tall with the turret

In detail
Suction and brushes
The manufacturer rates the suction at 18,000 Pa. That is less than most of the 114 robot vacuums we list. The main brush is the tangle-resistant type, with one side brush. On carpet the suction rises automatically.
Mopping
Mop system: twin spinning pads. It lifts the mop 12 mm over carpet. The mop swings out to reach along walls.
Navigation and obstacles
It navigates by LiDAR + camera and avoids obstacles with twin-camera AI. No-go zones can be drawn in the app.
The dock
The dock empties the bin, washes and dries the mop and refills the water tank. The dust bag lasts about 120 days.
Battery, charging and noise
The battery holds 92 Wh. The manufacturer publishes neither a runtime nor a noise figure.
