A strong fit for mixed carpet and hard floors, with the bin taken care of.
The SL60 Plus pairs 4,000Pa of suction that boosts itself over rugs with LiDAR mapping, a mop tank, and a self-empty dock that ships in the box rather than as an extra, at a listed $229.99.
Not for you if you want more suction than the SL60 Plus offers, or a mop that scrubs dried-on stains rather than dampening a floor; both are covered in the limitations below.
How lubluelu SL60 Plus scored
Why trust these scores: Each score is built from lubluelu's published specification (suction, tank and bin volumes, runtime, mapping features, the published noise figure), weighted toward the criteria that decide the daily job, carpet pickup and pet hair, rather than headline suction figures. No vendor can pay for a score. Read how we rate.
What we like
- Self-emptying is part of the price here, where rivals usually sell it as an upgrade
- Carpet boost changes suction for you, so a mixed floor needs no mode to remember
- Mapping holds up across more than one floor, with enough no-go zones to keep it out of the rooms you care about
- One charge covers an ordinary floor, and the spares you will actually need come in the box
- Sweeps, vacuums and mops from a single unit, which is what makes this one purchase rather than two
Watch out for
- Carpet suction sits below the rest of lubluelu's range, so a rug-heavy home should weigh the L50 Max and S1000 against it
- The mop is a damp wipe, so dried-on stains stay a manual job
- The published figure of 62 dB(A) or under names no cleaning mode, so the loud end of the range is unknown
- The 260ml onboard bin is small enough that you end up relying on the dock rather than the robot
How we rated the lubluelu SL60 Plus
lubluelu’s published specification for the SL60 Plus is the base of this review, set against the same kind of material for the robots we weigh it against. Where a number cannot be traced to a source, or arrives without the condition it was measured under, we leave it out rather than estimate it. ElevenReview does not run hands-on tests. The sources behind every figure on this page are listed at the end.
Carpet & rugs
lubluelu states 4,000Pa for the SL60 Plus and a Smart Carpet Boost Detection feature that raises suction when the robot meets a rug, so carpet is not cleaned at the same setting as a hard floor. That figure sits well below the top of lubluelu’s own range, where the L50 Max is listed at 7,500Pa and the S1000 at 10,000Pa. For everyday debris on mid-pile carpet it is enough. On a deep pile where grit is ground in, it is the number to check before you buy.
Hardwood & edges
On hard flooring the suction boost does not apply, so the robot runs at its base setting and the edge tool does more of the work. lubluelu lists two side brushes in the box alongside the main brush roll, and documents a 20mm threshold climb so the robot can cross from a hard floor onto a rug without being carried. Hard floors are also where this class of robot is at its most reliable, since there is no pile for debris to settle into, and lubluelu names carpet, hardwood and tiles among the surfaces the SL60 Plus is built for.
Pet hair pickup
lubluelu sells the SL60 Plus for pet-owner homes, and its own product page states that the robot “Effortlessly manages pet hair and dander without manual intervention”, describing the 4,000Pa suction as lifting hair from carpets and crevices. That is the manufacturer’s description rather than a finding of ours, and it is worth reading as a statement of design intent. The caveat is the one that applies to every brush-roll robot: hair wraps the roll over time, and how often you clear it depends on your dog and your carpet. Plan for the maintenance rather than for a claim.
Navigation & app
LiDAR is the documented method, and lubluelu names it LDS 9.0 SLAM with an 8m sensing range. The app stores up to five floor maps with 14 no-go zones and 20 virtual walls, which is what makes a multi-storey home practicable: each floor keeps its own map instead of overwriting the last. It pairs over 2.4GHz Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, with Alexa and Google voice control listed. Where robots of this type draw complaints is after a large furniture move, when a map has to be rebuilt; treat that as the setup cost rather than a flaw.
Noise
lubluelu publishes 62 dB(A) or under for the SL60 Plus and does not name the cleaning mode that figure applies to. That gap matters, because a robot vacuum is far louder on maximum suction than in its quiet setting, so a single published number without the mode attached only tells you the top of the range. Treat it as the ceiling of what lubluelu is willing to state rather than as the sound you will hear on a daily clean.
Mopping
The SL60 Plus is a 3-in-1 that sweeps, vacuums and mops, drawing water from a 240ml tank across three levels and following a Y-shaped path. Read that for what it is: a damp wipe that lifts everyday dust, not a scrub. It will not take up dried-on stains, and it will not replace a mop and bucket for a spill that has set. For a daily pass in a pet-owner home where the alternative is nothing at all, it earns its place; as a floor-cleaning machine on its own, it does not.
Battery, dustbin and upkeep
- Runtime is stated at 145 minutes on a 4–5 hour charge, from a 4 × 2,600mAh battery. lubluelu does not publish the mode that figure was measured in, so read it as a best case rather than the floor area one charge will cover.
- The onboard dustbin is 260ml, which is small for a whole floor. The SD85 self-empty station ships in the box, holds 2.5L and is rated to hold debris for up to 60 days, so the day-to-day emptying happens at the dock rather than the bin.
- lubluelu ships an extra HEPA filter and a cleaning tool with the unit. The brush roll and side brush are the parts that need clearing most often on a pet-owner floor.
Who the SL60 Plus is for
Pet owners with a mix of carpet and hard floors who want a set-and-forget daily vacuum and are happy for the mopping to be a damp wipe.

Our verdict
For a pet-owner home on a mix of carpet and hard floors, the SL60 Plus carries the daily pass on its own, and the dock keeps the bin out of your hands between runs. The caveats are narrow, and the score above is the balance of the two.
Not for you if you want a floor robot with no routine upkeep. It saves you the vacuuming, not the servicing: hair still has to come off the brushes, and no brush-roll machine removes that job.
