Hello Robot Stretch 4 reviews

No verified owner reviews yet. We publish only reviews from people who can show they own the robot, and we summarise — never rewrite — published third-party tests.

Published reviewIEEE Spectrum (Evan Ackerman) · Henry Evans, a paralyzed at-home tester who has evaluated assistive robots for about 15 years, assessing Stretch 4 for in-home use2026-05-12

Henry Evans argues wheeled robots like Stretch beat bipedal humanoids for people who can't walk, saying "wheels are cheap, stable, precise, require very few controls" and noting that when a wheeled robot is emergency-stopped it "freezes in place," whereas "a bipedal robot gets run-stopped, it collapses on anything under it, including the patient."

wheeled base is cheap, stable and precise compared to bipedal alternatives
freezes safely in place on emergency stop instead of collapsing
usable with very few controls, important for users who can only operate one or two joints at a time
