What is your budget? The Q7 m5+ I'm using right now is super cost-effective, has suction power 10000 Pa, might solve your problem
Check out the Q7 M5+ on Amazon for $279. This one has an attachable mop that it drags around. We never use the mop portion just the vacuum for our basement. It works really well for vacuum only.
I have a 100lb and 75lb golden. This thing does great. We have it run every single day and no issues. The only time it jammed is when I tried to lower it to run once every 3 days. But as you know, 3 days of two goldens is a ton of hair. Every day running is no issue though. Great value for price imo https://a.co/d/0ciKQoJx
I vote for the Q7 M5+. Big brands like Roborock usually offer more reliable after-sales support. Also, big brands have been tested and approved by more people. Our family is currently using this model, and I think it offers great value for money, as it has strong suction and excellent battery life..
I just got the Q7 M5+ and I really like it! I got it for $219
I have a Roborock vacuum+mop and I am very happy with the vacuum capabilities, but the mopping function is useless. Granted, I only bought the $500 model and I have read the ones that are $1000+ do a much better mop job. The vacuum aspect is worth the cost for me though, as it picks up everyday dust, fur, crumbs etc and so far in the last 6 months hasn't ever gotten stuck anywhere. I have it mapped out to run on different areas of my downstairs each day and it empties itself at the end of each cycle.
The mopping function on the model I have is basically just like taking a damp paper towel and rubbing it around on a large surface repeatedly as it continues to get dirty during the cycle. You have to empty the bin, fill it with water, reattach the bin, apply a pad, and send it off. Then when it's done you have to empty the bin and remove the pad which is now dirty. It's a manual process so as far as I can tell you can't schedule a vacuum and mop in one cycle because of the bin emptying that has to happen in between. Mine is the Q7 m5+ model. I don't feel heartbroken about it and in hindsight it makes sense that it wouldn't be more automated for the price I paid.
From my experience, Roborock and eufy both have pretty good return policies and customer service (even when purchased through Amazon). My original robot vacuum was a Roborock S6 MaxV, Amazon renewed. I actually still have it, it works PHENOMENALLY, I just wanted to get something that had a self emptying dock, so I got a eufy omni C20 on sale. My eufy omni C20 was being awful after about a year of owning it and I left a review on Amazon detailing all my issues. Their customer service reached out through Amazon messages and after lots of troubleshooting offered me a full refund for returning it, which I took. I may give eufy another try in the future because the unit did work well, but as I had a baby on the way, I wanted something that was just going to work, so I got a Roborock Q7 M5+. After owning \*that\* for about 5 months, it started giving me all sorts of problems and again after trying a lot of troubleshooting I just received the replacement unit from sending in the one that wasn't working. I almost wish they had offered a refund instead so I could try a different unit :/
I guess even a Q7 M5+ should do without mopping in mind. The battery is smaller, but it should have the same vacuuming performance.
Q8 Pro would be a suitable replacement, comes with DuoRoller brushes and optical obstacle avoidance. It bumps much less on furniture and obstacles. US price $200. Great vacuum. If you would like to upgrade towards a "+" model with auto empty dock (I recommend it), consider Q7 M5+ for US $250. Q8 Max was a little older and the + variant is already discontinued. What a bummer. All Q7 models are however single rollers without the obstacle avoidance. Much more like the legendary S4.
Best one to fit your needs was Q8 Max+. DualRoller, obstacle avoidance (although not the best one), decent dustbin size. Sadly Roborock ditched the Q5 and Q8 for no better replacements. Q7 M5+ is a downgrade in every aspect. Brush roller, battery size, dustbin size...
That's not the point. Roborock has been supported well for ages, although somewhat inofficially. People are buying Roborock vacuums because you could trust them in being supported. Now there's two new models where they messed with the API for no good reason.
Your Edge C doesn't have the API issue. Affected models are Q7 L5/M5 and Q10.
