Roborock - Q7B

I recently bought the cheapest Roborock Q7 BF or something and to be honest I am very happily surprised. But I have 2 cats and an apartment, so for me, it was purely against the cat hairs and I expected nothing more. Having worked at an online retailer, I know how many times people called, (a lot) because their robot had some sort of issue no matter which brand or version. So I bought the cheapest with the least amount of functions, no dock where it empties itself and I don't use it to mop either. It's a round robot on your floor, keep that in mind. Your house won't be cleaned by it and there are still parts you have to vacuum yourself. Paying 800-1000 eu/dollar for one of these is just insane marketing with gimmicky stuff and a big box. DON'T DO IT. The robot will still get sometimes stuck or tries to vacuum something that won't fit to then start calling for help. I don't want China to have access to my phone, let alone a LIDAR scan of my house, so I just press start and it does the rest. I don't use any app, neither should anyone tbh.

I have the Q7B. Despite good enough specs IMO it just feels cheaper. In real world it gets stuck a lot more frequently than my 3 other robot vacuums (combination of Roborock and Dreame) Mopping setup is more annoying than the others also but functionally is as good (bad) Would say that the firmware has updated a couple of times and it seems to function better, get stuck less, so maybe long term it’ll be ok but not ready to call it yet.

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.

We got the Q7, it is a vacuum and mop. I got it on prime day in 2024 for $219

My roborock q7 runs every time we leave the house and comes back home when we do if its not already there

I got the Q7 for $250 so $1800 seems absolutely insane to me but do you boo

I just got the Roborock Q7 and I love it! It also mops and is quieter than my roomba. It’s not totally quiet but my roomba was distracting when I was working while this one is not Edit: I should also add that the white one is on sale on Amazon for about $350 which is a steal considering it self empties, vacuums and mops. Before the black one was on sale so make sure to check the different color options for what is the best price currently!

In bezit van een Roborock Q7 met volledig station om je stofzuiger in te legen. Dweilen stelt niks voor, maar het stofzuigen gaat meer dan prima. Heb nog een Dyson voor de trap en de rest doet de Roborock. Goede app en gaat al een aantal jaar steady mee hier. Erg blij mee

The q7 is mostly vacuuming focused, the previous model puts a bit more focus on mopping. If you want a more vacuum only focused bot too there’s also the switchbot k10+ Amanda mentioned which I also think is a good choice for a vacuum only robot.

Du må vurdere hvordan leiligheten er utformet og hva du har i den. Høye lister? Kjæledyr som røyter? Masse tepper? Selv kjøpte jeg en Roborock Q7 til under 3k og er veldig fornøyd. Takler det meste, men ikke så god til å unngå alt rotet mitt. Ikke uvanlig at jeg får beskjed på jobb at den har spist en sokk eller laderen min. Det tvinger deg ihvertfall til å holde gulvet ryddig. 

Getting a robot vac as a suplement to perform a daily sweep and help keep on top of the floors can be helpful ideal. Replacing a normal upright entirely with a robot is not such a good idea. No robot can match the rug cleaning performance and power of a normal vac, they can't reach a lot of spots or vacuum furniture and corners either. I would always recommend having a normal vac around for deeper cleaning. Robot vacs do require maintenance themselves especially if long hair is involved. The rollers, even "anti tangle" ones accumulate hair in the brush roller ends which need to be cleared out regularly, on top of the regular filter cleaning and emptying. Plus they can struggle if cords, sock, and pet toys are laying around. All that said and if you think the maintainence won't be a burden, I'd look at the roborock q7 and q10 series of models. I've had relatively good luck with robotock machines, and they should help keep up with the floors. I wouldn't pay much attention to mopping functions either. Usually they're more work than help.
