What owners actually say
"The Q5 seemed to perform the best with pet hair."
What the specs mean in practice
Suction is rated at 5,500 Pa, higher than 42% of tracked models. Pa is a manufacturer figure, not measured airflow — owners judge cleaning by pet hair and carpet results, so treat it as a floor rather than a verdict.
A 240-minute runtime is at or above the roughly 180-minute norm, enough for most single-floor homes in one pass.
The dock is listed as "auto-empty".
