Our verdict on each

MOVA

Peak suction of 40,000 Pa puts MOVA near the front of the brands tracked here, so it suits buyers who prioritise power and a self emptying dock over the lowest ticket. Prices sit in mid field, and support runs on email, help centre and community only, with no phone line listed.

Read the full MOVA review

Samsung

Samsung suits households that want the big appliances and the smart kit working from a single app, with spare parts held for 10 years after purchase. You pay a premium against Exquisit and Bauknecht for that joined-up range, and the robot vacuum is the weakest part of the picture.

Pros and cons

MOVA

Pros

  • Peak suction of 40,000 Pa places MOVA 2 among 46 brands ranked on that measure, well above the 15,000 Pa median across the brands tracked here.
  • A self empty dock and lidar mapping both sit inside the range rather than being saved for one model, and the warranty runs 3 years.
  • Robots keep cleaning when the connection drops, since they work offline, with a mobile app handling the rest.

Cons

  • Support runs on email, help centre and community only, with no phone line listed for faults that stop a clean mid room.
  • MOVA was founded in 2024, so the long term record on spare parts, firmware and resale is still short.
  • Entry at $189 leaves MOVA 44 among 65 brands ranked on price entry, so the cheaper end is not a budget buy.

Samsung

Pros

  • The listed washing machine runs at 32 kWh a year, so a weekly habit stays cheap to run.
  • A single app covers the kit, with a mobile app included, hub, sensor and plug in one place, and no hub required.
  • Protocols matter, thread and zigbee and ecosystems smartthings and matter let existing sensors and plugs join rather than be replaced.

Cons

  • Warranty of 2 years is short next to the 10 years parts commitment, so a machine can outlive its cover.
  • Robot vacuum suction of 6,000 Pa sits well under the 15,000 Pa site median, so deep carpet is not its strength.
  • The market listed is GB alone, so delivery and installation terms are given for that market only.

Who each suits

MOVA

Who it suits

  • Buyers who put the suction figure and dock hardware above the cheapest entry price, and who want lidar mapping on the entry robot too.
  • Households that want one brand for the robot vacuum plus a stick, wet-dry or handheld, since MOVA's range covers robot vacuum, stick and wet dry.
  • Shoppers in the markets MOVA sells to, which include the UK, Germany, France, Japan and the US under AU, BE and CA.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Buyers who want uprights next to robot vacuums: MOVA's robot vacuum, stick and wet dry stop short of them, while Ewbank lists robot vacuum, stick and upright.
  • Shoppers who prefer a short decision, since Philips covers robot vacuum and wet dry and nothing more.

Samsung

Who it suits

  • Households replacing a full white goods set, since washing machine, dryer and dishwasher and WW11DB8B95GBU1, RL38C776ASR/EU, NV7B5750TAK-U4 cover washer, fridge, oven and hob in one range.
  • Households already running SmartThings, with matter, thread and zigbee and no hub needed, so appliances and sensors share one app.
  • Energy-minded households, where 32 kWh a year sets a low running cost for frequent loads.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Budget buyers: Exquisit covers the same core appliances, while this range opens at $649.
  • Shoppers who want a cooker in the same range: Bauknecht lists one and this range does not, so check Bauknecht first.

Questions about each

MOVA

How much does a MOVA robot vacuum cost?+

Robot vacuums enter the range at $189 and the flagship model costs $999. Those are the price of the machine itself rather than a recurring charge, so nothing renews after purchase. Budget separately for replacement filters, brushes and mopping pads, the parts that wear out on a robot used every day.

Which MOVA robot vacuum has the strongest suction?+

The flagship MOVA robot carries the headline figure of 40,000 Pa, and that places MOVA 2 among 46 brands ranked on peak suction. The entry robot sits lower on the same list, so suction is the reason to step up rather than a reason to buy the cheapest model.

Samsung

How much does a Samsung appliance cost at the entry end?+

The listed starting price is $649, and it comes from a countertop convection microwave rather than a washing machine or fridge, so a full kitchen set sits above that figure. These are single purchases rather than subscriptions, so the entry price is the number to plan around rather than a figure that renews later.

How long is the warranty, and will parts still be available later?+

Warranty cover on the appliances runs for 2 years, and spare parts are held for 10 years, with a spare parts shop listed as well. For a fitted kitchen the parts figure is the more useful of the pair, since a failed pump or door seal takes longer to sort than a simple swap. Read the terms, since a parts promise and a warranty are different cover.
