The Aqua10 Ultra Roller and the Matrix10 Ultra share the same 30,000 Pa of suction. Their real difference is not written in pascals, but in how each of them conceives of mopping — two opposite answers to the same question.
The verdict in one sentence
The Aqua10 Ultra Roller for a large uniform hard floor, the Matrix10 Ultra for a home with varied flooring: the first rinses continuously as it goes, the second changes mop and solution depending on the room.

What genuinely separates them
Continuous rinsing against mop swapping
The Aqua10 Ultra Roller mops with an AquaRoll roller rinsed continuously during the pass: dirt is carried away as it goes, and dirty water is never spread onto the next stretch of floor. The Matrix10 Ultra works differently — it swaps its mop depending on the room, with three textures and three separate cleaning-solution compartments, but without permanent rinsing during the cleaning itself.
One room, one floor type, one solution — or a single system everywhere
The Matrix10 Ultra is designed for homes that mix flooring: a mop better suited to the kitchen tiles, another for the living room's wood, a different solution for a wet room. The Aqua10 Ultra Roller applies the same continuous rinsing system everywhere, which is an advantage of simplicity on homogeneous flooring, and a limitation if your home multiplies textures.
Carpet, the blind spot shared by both systems
Neither the AquaRoll roller nor the Matrix10's Multi-Mop is designed to wash a carpet — both systems rely on damp contact with the floor, incompatible with carpeting. On this point, neither robot has any advantage over the other.
Take the Aqua10 Ultra Roller if…
- Your home is mostly made up of hard floors (tiles, wood, vinyl) of a single type.
- You want the cleanest possible mopping over large continuous areas.
- The 100 € gap with the Matrix10 matters to your budget.
Take the Matrix10 Ultra if…
- Your home mixes several floor types (tiles, wood, wet rooms).
- You want a mopping solution suited to each room rather than a single system.
- Obstacle climbing matters to you: 8 cm against 6 cm for the Aqua10.
Our recommendation
The choice does not depend on the intrinsic quality of the two robots — their scores are close (8.8 against 8.7) — but on how varied your floors are. A home with a single floor type gains from the Aqua10 Ultra Roller, cheaper and just as effective in that precise use case. A home with varied floors justifies the Matrix10 Ultra's extra 100 €. Getting it the wrong way round is not dramatic here: both robots remain good choices for one another, unlike other comparisons in this range.

Frequently asked questions
What is the real difference between the Aqua10 Ultra Roller and the Matrix10 Ultra?
It is not suction power: both suction at 30,000 Pa. It is how they mop. The Aqua10 rinses its roller continuously as it moves, so it never spreads dirty water back. The Matrix10 swaps its mop depending on the room, with three textures and three different solutions.
Is the AquaRoll roller more hygienic than the Matrix10’s mops?
On uniform hard flooring, yes, in theory: continuous rinsing prevents dirty water collected in one room from being spread into the next, which is the main criticism of conventional spinning mops. The Matrix10 compensates by changing mop and solution by room, but does not rinse continuously during the pass.
Is the Matrix10 Ultra worth it if my home is all tiles?
Not much. Its strength — changing texture and solution according to the flooring — only comes into play if your home mixes several types of floor (tiles, wood, wet rooms). On uniform flooring, the Aqua10 Ultra Roller offers at least equivalent mopping for 100 € less.
Do these two robots vacuum as well as they mop?
Yes, equally: 30,000 Pa each, with the same HyperStream dual detangling brush. The difference between the two robots plays out entirely on mopping, not on suction.
