"best vacuuming particularly if you pair it with an auto empty dock"
"What I adore about this one is that every time he returns home, he empties his own dustbin!!"
"The second one I got was self emptying so it can continue all by itself and I really appreciate it. I only have to empty the main basin once a week and that's it. Super convenient"

"A roborock Q5 is $140! ... You could buy a new one if it broke after warranty and it'd still be cheap."

"Sick and tired of the Q5+ sucking up my toddlers socks"
"Frequently get stuck on kids toys or the bottom of chairs (bottom rail is on ground at height 0.5”-1”)."
"For the most efficient sock experience, it must get stuck in the auto empty dock right between the dustbin bag and the hole that dirt flows through."

"I don't want to spent $1400+ on a vacuum with a fucking mop because 90% of the 2nd floor is carpet."
"Of these, the worst mopping will be the Q5 and Q8 robots, which just have stationary pads attached to the back."
"The self mopping feature imo is not worth it"

"The robot vacuum companies get you on the replacement parts, which are not cheap."
"The downside is that you can only buy the bags through Roborock so factor that into your budget"
