So my wife and I did tons of research on robots and watched all the vacuum wars videos and tracked all the prices of our top 3 or 4 that we might want and when this went on sale along with basically all the others we were watching for $999 we finally decided to jump on it.Let me just tell you, this thing is awesome. The short version of this review is we've had this for about 2 weeks at this point, I left basically all the settings stock and just turned on some of the optional features like floor direction mopping and auto reclean so that if it says the water is too dirty it'll mop again until it's clean and then the optional camera where it'll take a picture of what caused it to have to skip an area or was blocked and that is an amazing feature. Highly recommend this vacuum, our floors literally feel slicker/smoother, I never would've thought that just from a mop but they do it does an amazing job. We've also got a Dyson V12 slim with the green laser that litteraly shows any little thing on the floor and we ran the Dyson around the floor like some crime detectives with a black light and all the lights off and we found like maybe one or two little things... It's incredible.Ok now for the rest of it. Weve got 2 dogs and while the auto empty station isn't quiet by any means none of it bothers our dogs. The first couple times it ran our smaller dog was a little suspicious but he got over it after that. I have yet to see my power bill after having this so I guess that's something I can't comment on with the whole hot air drying the mop pads but I'd rather pay a little extra for electricity than have some stanky musty mop pads that defeat the whole purpose of the self care base station.It does go through some water though I must say, but the water tanks are nice and large unlike almost every coffee maker that has a tank too small, this certainly has some big tanks. Easy to open and close/take out and put back in. I kind of love that the doors to access everything like the water tanks and bag and mopping detergent stuff are all kind of hidden haha it just looks so clean and elegant. I especially love that you don't "have to" buy their floor cleaning detergent, there's a plastic container that you fill with whatever you want and it'll automatically add it to the robots water when it refills it. However a bottle of their stuff did come inside the box which was nice to get started, it also came with 2 bags which should last quite a long time. Something worth mentioning is while I love a good box that has just enough clearance to let what's inside slowly slip out, when it comes to heavy awkward items like the base station I'd be ok if they could like not do that cause having to hold the base station while someone else pulls the box off was quite the effort. Other options would be advised haha lay it down and pull it out onto the floor but be careful not to scratch it.The app is also another area where we have had no problems at all, the app is very good, little clunky at times and on my android phone at least it doesn't respond well to the swiping back guesture. So I've clicked many buttons trying to swipe back to the previous screen and now I just use the on screen controls like the X or back arrow on whatever screen I'm on. I integrated the vacuum with our Google smart home system which worked flawlessly. It runs every night and mapped the whole floor in a matter of like 5 minutes the first time it ran and since then it's just gotten better and more efficient. It takes pictures like I said earlier of anything that we may have left on the floor or shoes or cables or whatever but it still does its best to clean as close to them as possible which it does a great job at. I did have to tape down one cable to our powered recliner so that it wouldnt keep pushing it across the floor but that was minor and it was only that one cable cause it wouldn't lay flat, it always has been rather bendy and stiff so I can't really fault the vacuum for that one but now that it's taped down it has no problems.All in all so far I can't complain about this thing, it does everything it says it does and even fits under most our furniture which is always a neglected area for us haha

We have been using the X40 for less than 2 months. Keep this in mind in considering our eval. Best feature for us by far is the ability to have it leave the mop pads at the docking station while it vacuums. This has eliminated a number of potential problems. We always have it vacuum then mop. Our bedrooms and living room are carpeted. Kitchen, dining and entry areas are all tile. Prior to this we have been using a RoboRock that is more than 5 years old. Do not recall model & it did not mop. My wife is convinced that this is cleaning our low pile carpets much better. We do not have pets so pet hair is not an issue for us. We generally use in only a couple times a week.The X40 takes longer to vacuum than the old roborock did, but we have had not issues with it getting stuck. House is about 2500 square feet on one level, and we block off one bedroom. It usually recharges at least once before the vacuuming and mopping is complete. Knowing about how long it is going to take to clean, we have had no problem with finding times to run it without interfering with any household activities.The docking station appears to be well designed. Disposing of used mop water after several sessions makes it not so care free as advertised. Like other high end models, the fact it cleans the mop pads with hot water & dries them is a huge convenience.The X40 also took a lot longer to dock the first time. Much less time subsequently, but docking is not quick. We are very pleased that we have a cubby hole in our front entry where the docking station fits with minimal clearance on each side. This may be increasing docking time. See Picture.The price is significant, but if one considers time saved, we consider it a bargain. The value of the trade off of price & timed saved will very for each household.We would strongly encourage purchase of this item for homes where finances are not a significant limiting factor. However, as noted above we have only used about two months and can not comment on longer term durability.Product support has been excellent. They sent email to be certain everything was working well, and asked us to follow up with them if we were having any issues. We received answers to questions within a couple days.
