Two floor washers that publish their figures
Which of these two cordless floor washers should I buy?
Two machines with the same geometry and the same runtime. The difference is what each maker is willing to tell you about the roller.
| Compared on | X7 | Floor One Stretch S6 |
|---|---|---|
| Suction | 20 kPa | Not stated |
| Lying height | 13 cm (5.1 in) | 13 cm (5.1 in) |
| Runtime | 40 minutes | 40 minutes |
| Roller wash temperature | Not stated in the listing | 85 °C (185 °F) |
| Drying cycle | Not stated | 5 minutes |
| Edge cleaning | Not stated | Three-sided |
| Listed on amazon.com | No | Yes |
A tick marks the better answer on that line only. Counting ticks does not decide the page — the two verdicts below do, because these machines answer different questions.
No amazon.com listing was found for this one. We hold references for other markets but none for the United States, so it may not be buyable here — which is the first thing to weigh against anything below.
Buy the Vexilar if price decides and you are willing to take the roller out and dry it yourself after each use.
Buy the Tineco for the 85 °C (185 °F) wash and the five-minute dry. That pair is the single specification that decides whether a floor washer is still in use in six months.
Because floor washers rarely fail — they get abandoned. The roller sits damp in its dock loaded with what came off the floor, and it smells within days. A hot wash and a drying cycle remove the chore that ends most of these machines.
It is normal for the category and not the limiting factor on a hard floor. What decides the result is how much liquid comes back out and how the roller behaves afterwards.

Twenty kilopascals, thirteen centimeters of clearance and a stated forty minutes — a complete set of figures at a modest price.

180° flat · 13 cm (5.1 in) clearance · 85 °C (185 °F) FlashDry · 40 min
Thirteen centimeters of clearance and three-sided edge cleaning: the head is the product here.
