Figure 02 Buyer Verdict
FULL DOSSIER →[✓] BUY FIGURE 02 IF:
- •You require heavy domestic or commercial lifting (25 kg max payload and 25 kg stair carry with 280 Nm peak torque).
- •You value expanding OTA capabilities: automates 42% of standard household chores today, scaling to 68% in Year 1 and 85% by Year 2.
[!] DO NOT BUY FIGURE 02 IF:
- ×Do NOT deploy unsupervised in a residential living room with young children or pets: its 70 kg rigid unpadded metal frame (56 dBA) is not ISO 13482 child-safety certified. Consider 1X NEO Beta (38 dBA, soft textile) or Fourier GR-2 (40 dBA) instead.
- ×Do NOT assign fragile crystal stemware or fine china dishwashing (3/5 rating); its end-effectors lack sub-2N stemware slip protection.
- ×Do NOT operate outdoors in heavy rain, mud, or wet grass: its IP54 industrial dust and fine particulate proofing enclosure is not all-weather sealed. Consider Booster T1 (IP65) or All-Electric Atlas (IP67) for year-round wet outdoor yard work.
- ×Do NOT order if you require immediate sub-8-week delivery: current allocation is in a 16-week lead-time queue ($10,000 reservation deposit). Consider Unitree G1 (4-week lead time) or 1X NEO Beta (14-week lead time) for faster deployment.
Fourier GR-2 Buyer Verdict
FULL DOSSIER →[✓] BUY FOURIER GR-2 IF:
- •You need a quiet (40 dBA), child-and-pet certified (ISO 13482 Personal care robots safety standard) humanoid for an active family home or clinic.
- •You want delicate kitchen and laundry automation: rated 4/5 on dishwashing (wine glass safe) and 4/5 on bimanual laundry folding.
- •You run back-to-back commercial shifts and need a hot-swappable 1.60 kWh battery (4.8 hrs runtime per pack) with zero docked downtime.
- •You value expanding OTA capabilities: automates 40% of standard household chores today, scaling to 64% in Year 1 and 82% by Year 2.
[!] DO NOT BUY FOURIER GR-2 IF:
- ×Do NOT operate outdoors in heavy rain, mud, or wet grass: its IP43 cleanroom and hospital clinic rated enclosure is not all-weather sealed. Consider Booster T1 (IP65) or All-Electric Atlas (IP67) for year-round wet outdoor yard work.
- ×Do NOT assign heavy 25 kg commercial crates, masonry bags, or two-person appliance carries on stairs: its safe stair payload is capped at 12 kg (18 kg max lift).
