Pros: good vacuum suction power, LiDAR mapping is perfect.
Cons: mopping does not work as expected; expensive dust bags.
This model does not have mopping and self-emptying features, so you don't have to worry about the cons. Why not give it a try?
Beware of (robot) vacuum models that don't disclose their actual suction power in their specifications.
Also, be mindful of the suction power measurement used. Specifically, measuring by Air Watts (air flow) can be highly inaccurate, when compared to Pascals.
Be cautious of any company that doesn't readily disclose their vacuum's suction power in Pascals, but know that any suction power or airflow measurements can be adulterated.
For instance, Roborock is known for measuring suction power at the blower, which is not where the rubber meets the road. It's like measuring a car's engine horsepower output from the crank, instead of the wheels, where it matters.
The same goes for battery capacity. You'd need external equipment to measure the actual capacity, so many manufactures under disclose, or fail to disclose their devices' battery capacity. I'm looking at you, NOCO auto jumper packs 😞
tl;dr vacuum product listings often omit information and/or sensationalize air flow and suction power specs to entice your purchase
