Score: 81/100
Chovery CL3
Score: 69/100Rankings

The Hobot-298 is an AI-driven window cleaning robot that excels on large, frameless glass with ultrasonic mist spray and fast cleaning speed. Its small water-tank capacity and the need for a safety rope limit convenience on smaller panes. Best suited for homeowners with big windows who prioritize speed and streak-free results.

The CHOVERY CL3 is an ultra-lightweight AI-driven window cleaner with dual-side spray and up to 30 minutes of cordless operation. Its corded primary design and modest battery backup limit freedom on large jobs. Ideal for users who need a portable, safe solution for windows, mirrors or tiles up to 30 m².

Professional reviewers consider the Hobot-298 an advanced, AI-driven window cleaning robot that excels on large, frameless glass surfaces. They commend its ultrasonic mist spray, fast cleaning speed, and low-noise motor, while noting that optimal performance still depends on using a detergent and that the device is less suited for small panes.
Everyday users praise the robot for making large-window cleaning effortless, quiet, and streak-free thanks to the mist technology. Common complaints revolve around the need for detergent on tough grime, the effort required to set up the safety rope, limited water-tank capacity, and occasional app or remote connectivity issues.

Professional reviewers and editors commend the CHOVERY CL3 for its ultra-lightweight construction, strong suction and AI-based navigation, noting that these features deliver secure, efficient cleaning on large vertical surfaces while the safety rope and battery backup add confidence. However, they also caution that the device remains fundamentally cord-powered, and the water spray output may fall short for very large jobs.
Everyday users love the robot's light weight and ease of handling, praising the dual spray for streak-free results and the reliable no-slip performance on big windows. Recurring complaints focus on the corded design limiting freedom of movement and the relatively short 30 minute battery backup, as well as the need to refill the spray bottle frequently.
