"A good robovac is a life changer. Even a $350 basic S8. It is a great place to start. ... I promise you that you will not be disappointed by a basic S8. It will change your life even if it can't fit under every piece of furniture you own. ... My two S8s just finished vacuuming our entire house in about 46 minutes. ... While my floors were being cleaned, I sat comfortably on our patio in the cool shade with a slight breeze and composed my far too long response to you while sipping a diet soda and relaxing. ... I will have to spend about four minutes maintaining my two S8s. This will be my entire contribution to my home floor cleaning effort for today. Four minutes!"
"Like 500$ these robots are currently the steal of the century ... You can get a mova p10 pro ultra (cannot remove its mops), equivalent to the l40/x40 for 500$ after a discount code"
"I got the Q5 Pro for $139. ... costs $450 less than what I paid for the S6 ... it is the best value option out there imo."

"I’ve seen on the camera the poor guy making multiple trips to self empty while in one room but it’s cut the hair buildup tenfold."
"With three they can just make it to a full week for emptying. ... Life changing."
"the hair cutting feature on the dock means i havent had to get in there and chop out all the cat hair or long hair from 2x long haired humans."

"I absolutely do not regret buying the robot vacuum. ... My room is a lot cleaner and dust-free now, and I can tell just by wiping my floor with a wet toilet paper and seeing barely anything picked up. ... I've been getting allergens a ton less, most of which not even in my room. ... All this for the commitment of a weekly emptying is miles more convenient than vacuuming traditionally, as opposed to making a few taps on my phone. ... looking back it was definitely worth the investment."
"My cat has very bad mite allergies, and this vacuum is a must have for us for keeping the floors clean of all dust, dander, and dirt."
"The second floor of my house is all carpeted, and I used to clean with a Dyson V8, but since I got the E28, I haven't vacuumed myself."

"I work from home so I have it clean the side im not in during the day and after work it cleans my office side. ... In the morning it starts around 830am and takes about an hour to vac and mop 500 sq feet 1 time. It takes about 30 minutes at 5:30pm to vac my office with carpet and rugs. ... I also have a separate weekday and weekend schedule too. ... If my dogs eat messy, ill send it to their area to clean only."
"Had a dumb one before that didn’t map our home and this is vastly better."
"Its really neat to watch on the app as it goes about your house and maps it out."

"it's also the only robovac I've ever had that ran over dog poop..."
"It gives up quickly and does not map well. ... For example, first time out, it was unable to leave the kitchen. ... So it mapped the kitchen and a space outside the kitchen that it could see was called a room. But it was only able to see 30% of the actual room. ... It did not update the map as the dreame would each run. ... Sent out for a remap. Got the center room and failed to get the hallway that did not have a threshold to cross, got 20% of another room it could't get in and didn't place a wall where there was a wall."
"my Qrevo Edge was not able to avoid some cables or other things like small pet toys my puppy would bring out at times. ... Once it even ran over a little log (of shit) my puppy left out for it which caused me to have to open it up and clean it out."

"it is also way more prone to tracking pet messes about, that happened once with a pile of cat vomit and I was a little traumatized."
"if you take if off the dock yourself it loses the mop function unless you restart it literally 10 times"
"for the love of God please don get a roomba combo model. They don work… ever."

"I can't get my q7 max to connect to my phone anymore. ... It's so frustrating."
"I have to use google assistant to schedule run times. If I use the app, it runs whenever it wants ... That’s exactly what’s happening with mine."
"And right after 1 year, the WiFi dropped all of a sudden. And I can’t get it to connect to my network. Tried everything."

"the medify one sounds horrible- it has a weird high pitch and i can’t stand it even on the very lowest setting. ... i actually sent it back and they replaced it and the second one sounds the same."
"The only smaller air purifier I have is the $200 Conway in my kitchen. Its like a jet engine when on high speed. That's OK when I've burnt something. But there is no way people are running it at that noise level in general use."
"And it’s noisy as hell when I kick it up a notch."

"the Roomba left little crumb piles everywhere."
"IMHO the brushes are my main eco concern with these, the rubber ones get ruined relly fast by long hair and larger debris."
"But the filter mesh inlet is very small compared to its competitors in the similar range, which easily gets clogged after a single cleaning cycle, so she has to clean the filter every time after using it."
Thirding roborock. Love mine. I splurged on the self emptying model….totally worth it.
r/CleaningTips • Which robot vacuum is really GOOD at handling PET HAIR? ->I’ve got the Roborock Q7 Max, one of the cheaper Roborock models. Seems the main difference is that the fancier models do better mopping, which I believe - old mate basically just drags a wet cloth around behind himself 😆 The vacuuming is great though and I love the auto empty.
r/homeassistant • What's the best robot vacuum and mop IYO? Is it really worth its expensive price tag you paid? ->My roborock q7 runs every time we leave the house and comes back home when we do if its not already there
r/homeassistant • Robot Vacuum with good integration? ->I love our Roborock (bought in Amazon, I’ll look at what model and price it was) but it was huge pain to get on our wifi. My husband did it and was super annoyed.
r/workingmoms • What's considered the best Robot Vacuum Value for Money rn in your opinion? ->We got the Q7, it is a vacuum and mop. I got it on prime day in 2024 for $219
r/workingmoms • What's considered the best Robot Vacuum Value for Money rn in your opinion? ->Awesome score, congrats! Roomba sucks (no pun). They used to be a leader in the space but skated on name recognition for too long while the Chinese brands swooped in and started kicking their ass. Last I heard they're really struggling and close to bankruptcy. I absolutely adore my cheapo Roborock, it's amazing and I wish I'd gotten it sooner but I was hesitant to get a robot because of all the shit people had to say about Roombas. Shark can be hit or miss these days I've heard. Hope it fulfills all your wildest home cleanliness dreams!
r/AmazonVine • Told myself I'd never buy another robot vacuum.. Now I don't need to! ->I have the Q7 Max. No bells nor whistles but does an excellent job cleaning up after three inconsiderate cats and their messy human.
r/AmazonVine • Told myself I'd never buy another robot vacuum.. Now I don't need to! ->I run a Roborock Q7 Max daily (vacuum only, not mopping) on similar flooring with 3 dogs. It’s fantastic for staying on top of all the shed hair—runs every day at 3pm, auto-empties, and I come home to clean, hair-free floors. My fiancée uses the mopping feature weekly. Personally, I find it just okay… it saves me from mopping the whole house but still requires spot-mopping visibly dirty areas. Of course, we still do occasional full vacuuming (lots of rugs), but the Roborock is surprisingly effective on hair, crumbs, and dust. I used to be anti-robovac after owning a couple weak (comparatively) ones a decade ago, but the tech has seriously improved. Side note since you have cats: I’m paranoid about dog smell with three in the house, so I went deep into the air purifier subreddit and bought a few. They’ve cut down dust and dander, and trusted friends say the house smells great.
r/VacuumCleaners • What’s actually worth it for hardwood floors? Tineco? Roborock? Or something else? ->I have a Q7 Max without a dock, and I'm fine with it. However, I would not buy it today, if I was looking at a new robo. I would buy one of the Q Revo models with a dock and good floor cleaning. But if it's cheap enough it might be worth it? How much does it costs?
r/Roborock • Should I buy Q7 without an emptying dock? ->Roborock Q7 Max. Haven’t used our normal vacuum since we bought it 1,5 years ago. No pets but long hair. The first brush was cut in two by long hairs that we don’t remove often enough, but a replacement was cheap. The mop function is ok. Had a dumb one before that didn’t map our home and this is vastly better. Our home is always clean.
r/Apartmentliving • What are the best robot vacuums you've tried - Do they really keep the apartment clean everyday? ->We have Q7 Max (Q5+mopping) and a short haired GSP and have found the vacuum really good on our loop pile carpets. Only had it for a few weeks but Roborock is well regarded and it seems clever, it can get itself out of trouble and mapping is spot on.
r/RobotVacuums • Help! Robot vacuum headache! ->I got the Q7 for $250 so $1800 seems absolutely insane to me but do you boo
r/Roborock • Should I drop $1800 on a robot vacuum or go cheaper? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
