I wouldn’t bother with the mopping function - pretty much as effective as you’d think it would be dragging a damp pad over the floor! It’s only where there’s some kind of independent movement of the pads involved that it starts to get useful. (I have one with spinning pads which is pretty decent - and way better than the static options, but still has its limitations; especially in how much area it misses, especially the edges of rooms.

Just to offer up another option - Amazon also has a good deal on the Dreame D10 Plus Gen 2, which comes with an auto-emptying dock. Yep, a good amount more expensive but also worth it IMHO in the benefits this brings over a dock-less model. Noting how little dirt these machines can carry on them, they need emptying frequently (and more than you’d think as I’ve tended to find their effectiveness reduces well before they’re technically ‘full’). And it can often be a pretty fiddly job emptying them.

 

The prices below are in NZ$ and include free shipping:

 

$573 from AU: https://www.amazon.com.au/Cleaner-Automatic-Navigation-Suction-Carpets/dp/B0DCMKDF1L/

 

Or $443 from US:

There's a decent review/comparison of this on the hookup. It's for the version with the base but still worth reading.
