An extending brush or mop can improve reach near some boundaries, but furniture geometry still limits access. Evaluate your actual recesses and corners.

A practical checklist
- Compare the robot body's ability to approach the edge.
- Measure deep plinths and low overhangs.
- Plan occasional manual work in spaces the mechanism cannot physically enter.
What this looks like at home
A mop arm reaching beside a straight skirting board may not reach far beneath a deeply recessed cabinet.
Make the route predictable
| Check | What matters |
|---|---|
| Floor-level objects | Lift leads, strings and loose fabric. |
| Narrow gaps | Check entry, turning and escape space. |
| Protected areas | Use suitable boundaries around hazards. |
A mistake to avoid
Do not interpret edge cleaning as proof of complete corner or under-cabinet coverage.
