Before this I had the Xiaomi Mi robot vacuum. Useless on carpets but worked well and for a long time on my tile. I upgraded to the Roborock for the carpet. Although it worked on carpet, getting it to map the entire house and then setting no-go lines was a nightmare. The Roborock went back. The Xiaomi Mi is doing a bang-up job keeping the garage floor clean!
I looked at the Roombas but don't like that they don't work in the dark.
Then came the D7. Wow. Mapped the entire house on the first go. All no-go lines work. All zones created without issue and now I can send it to any room, location, or zone I'd like and it does an outstanding job. Even does well on carpet and gives you pretty decent carpet lines.
BTW - single floor Florida home with no kids and no clutter. A robot vacuum's dream!
Where it lacks:
1) On occasion it get's CLOSE to the dock, but never docks. This does not happen often, maybe once every 20 or so times.
2) Voice commands to send it to a zone using Alexa or Google Home (without needing your phone) is desperately needed.
3) Need to be able to create no-go areas and not just use lines. This would make editing easier.
4) I hit the limit with no-go lines. They need to make that unlimited.
5) When Zone Cleaning, you need to be able to select more than one zone. This should also be available when creating schedules.
The good news is that all my gripes can be solved with software and firmware so let's get a move on Neato!!
Overall... VERY PLEASED and would buy again and recommend to a friend.
Hope some of this helps.

Navigates with lasers. Genius
LaserSmart technology scans and maps your entire house, creating a floor plan for your robot to follow. It moves exactly how a smart robot should, in straight lines instead of a random pattern. Lasers even let it clean in the dark.
Cleaning by zone. Controlled by you
With zone cleaning, you can target trouble areas in your home more frequently. Make a zone for the dinner table, and send the robot to take care of all those crumbs that fall to the floor.
