Lubluelu SL68 at a glance

Lubluelu SL68: what works, what doesn't?
What works well
- True laser navigation: LDS LiDAR with real-time mapping instead of random driving, not a given in this price range
- 3-in-1 function: vacuuming, mopping and sweeping in one device, water flow adjustable in three levels
- Up to 5 maps: stores several floors, handy for multi-storey or changing layouts
- 24 no-go zones: carpet, pet or children's areas can be specifically excluded
- Anti-siphon water tank: is meant to prevent leaking and thus floor damage or mould at the charging station
Points of criticism
- Mopping only simulated: the Y mode imitates manual mopping but does not replace real scrubbing on stubborn dirt
- No self-emptying: without an evacuation station the dust bin has to be emptied by hand
- No-name support: 2 years of support are promised, but long-term spare parts supply from the brand is uncertain

Build quality & everyday use
What carries the Lubluelu SL68 in everyday use: true laser navigation (LDS LiDAR with real-time mapping instead of random driving, not a given in this price range) and 3-in-1 function (vacuuming, mopping and sweeping in one device, water flow adjustable in three levels). We have to be honest about the weaknesses: mopping only simulated, the Y mode imitates manual mopping but does not replace real scrubbing on stubborn dirt.
If you set the device up to save space, make sure it stands on a stable, level surface with some air around it. This protects the mechanics and electronics in continuous use.
