Thanks all. Ended up pulling the trigger on a eufy 15c max from @spotter eBay link.
Dehumidifier can wait as we are coming out of winter pretty soon and it's a solution to a problem I don't really need to address right now
Will feed back on my experience with the electronic cleaning overlord.

Im sure you know, but the 15c is a 'bumper car' style navigation as opposed to the more 'logical' back and forth style. All the reviews I saw though said they were still good at covering a space though, just a bit more random.
Also, to second @Tenderloin comment the Miele C3 is a fantastic, we have one too which we do our weekly 'deep' clean with.
We also have a Shark wireless vac for stairs and awkward spots.
AND Titan Wet/Dry Vac for the car, garage workshop, dust extration and general really dirty stuff. It also works really well as a leaf blower.

Funny you should ask as I am both now.
I got a Eufy G30, which is is fantastic for our needs.
Maps by inertial navigation (two gyros and a floor tracking sensor). So knows where it's been and where it's dock is, but doesn't upload a 3D map of your house to some random cloud storage. (But I did put it in an isolation VLAN so it can't see anything else on my network)
Suction seems great for our hard floors, I got mine from the Anker outlet on eBay, £130 refurbished with 12 months warranty.
We run it every morning after breakfast when we are in our respective standup meetings. Takes 40mins to do the 30²m of the downstairs of our house.
We have had a meaco dehumidifier for 10+ years and I couldn't be without one.
The two best ways to use them are either;
Or
Ideal for older houses or flats with limited room/no outside space.
If either broke tomorrow I'd replace them without thinking.
