What keeps coming up
Obstacle avoidance is the most-discussed theme and it is praised: most owners who raised it were positive about how the z70 handles things in its path. Mopping quality is also praised, with most of those accounts positive.

Owners keep the Mova z70 for strong mopping and obstacle avoidance that gets through a home with little fuss, and they accept that its robot arm is a feature opinions differ on.
Obstacle avoidance is the most-discussed theme and it is praised: most owners who raised it were positive about how the z70 handles things in its path. Mopping quality is also praised, with most of those accounts positive.
No theme is a clear complaint. The closest is navigation, where owners are divided: some are happy with it, others are not, and one account says firmware updates changed how the robot behaved.
Pick up to three. You get a page with just those, side by side, on the subjects owners raised.
What keeps people happy is the cleaning itself. Every account that talked about overall satisfaction was positive, and owners point to mopping, general cleaning performance and obstacle avoidance. A few say hair tangling is not a problem for them, though that comes from a small group. One owner who replaced a leaking Mova z60 with the z70 Ultra said it has worked better than the z60 so far.
The robot arm is where expectations need adjusting. Owners are divided on it, and the comments suggest it works best as a light-duty tool. One person who returned their z70 (for other reasons) said it only seemed able to pick up things like socks, not heavier items. Firmware updates are also part of ownership: they arrived often enough early on to change how the robot behaved, and one account says updates can shift results over time.
Reliability is judged as praised, with most accounts positive and a smaller group reporting problems. A Mova z50 Ultra owner reported a large amount of cleaned area with no failures, and recommended the newer Mova models. Against that, one owner had a major leak on a certified refurbished Mova z60 and was allowed to return it. Another owner in the UK mentioned a couple of recent hiccups on their Z70 and suspected low ambient light as the cause, though that was a guess. A few accounts were negative about customer support, but that is too few to call a pattern.
Long-term evidence for the z70 itself is thin. It is a recent model, and the accounts we have come from owners a few weeks or months in. The longest track record in the comments belongs to older Mova models, not the z70. Treat the positive reliability picture as an early read, not a multi-year one.
Nothing has a clear majority against it yet. Counted from the owners who raised each subject, not from everyone. A subject is judged once at least 4 owners raise it.
35 more subjects came up from fewer than 4 owners each, which is not enough for a fair reading. To see how it stacks up, compare it with another machine.
The same owner, asked again at each point. Fills in as owners answer.
Two questions: how long you have had it, and anything you would like to say about it. Then we ask again as it ages. This helps our mission.

Before you buy one used, ask the seller: how old it is, whether it was ever repaired and by whom, and whether any of the parts above have been replaced. Ask to see it run. A receipt tells you the warranty start date; most makers honour the term only for the first owner.
