Roborock - QR 598 Robot Vacuum and Mop

Thanks again for your reply. But the qrev is outside of the budget. But seeing your comments made me go for the q598 over the xiaomi. More power, onboard water tank so it doesn't have to return multiple times. And the rest we just have to keep an eye in. Thanks again!

I can say this you don't need anything above 500€. Models e.g QR598 do the stuff perfectly. If you are not limited on money you can go for higher modells like the roborock qrevo curv and so on. I personally can say, I let the qr 598 clean the whole lower floor and it is more than enough. It cleans laminate and tiles and cleans carpets without problems. I do recommend regardless which modell you get, to buy the filter, mops, brushes with it. Makes things easier. If I decide okay the mop should get washed in the washin maschine I change it and throw it into the washing maschine. Plus I have a cat, which goes out and brings dirty with her little paws into the home, which the roborock qr 598 cleans up

If you want to pick it up at the store, I'd stick to Roborock. At least at the store near me, there are two options, both of which should do well. The more expensive one I see (the Qrevo Pro) will be better for mopping, while the other (the QR 598) is a vacuum with an add-on mop that won't work as well. If you're fine with online ordering and shipping, the Dreame E30 looks like a good deal as well. The Dyson will be the best vacuum of all of them (surprise), but it's not a great robot. Pretty much any of the Roborocks would be good, as would the Eufy E28 if you also need a spot cleaner.

So an unknown brand just came out with a fairly pedestrian robot with stationary-pad mopping, and it has a higher rating than some of the highest-regarded robots on the market? Nope. If you really need mopping on a budget, take a look at the Dreame D10+, Eufy L60 Hybrid, or one of the Roborock Q series robots. For a big improvement in mopping for not much more money, look at the Eufy C20 or Dreame L10s Ultra series. Mova can be good, if they've solved their problem with fragile front wheels. If you don't care about mopping, look at the Eufy L60 SES or SwitchBot K10+.

Actually, both the Roborock QR598 (same model as the QV35 and QR798) and the Xiaomi X20+ are comparable with almost similar features, but Xiaomi could give you a better price point than Roborock. By the way, what about the Xiaomi X20 Pro? I think it offers more features than the Roborock QR598, like warm air mop drying and the addition of a wall sensor and carpet sensor, but with a price still below QR598, at least in my place.

The Roborock QR598 features an onboard internal water tank, which helps maintain the mop's wetness when mopping a larger floor plan. In contrast, the Xiaomi relies on the dock to keep the mop wet. The downside of QR598 is that it doesn't have a warm air mop drying which would help to prevent the damp mop became smells bad especially if you live in a humid area. If they still have Qrevo S stock in your area, I think it's more suitable especially QR598 is based on Qrevo S without the warm air drying, increased suction from 7000 Pa to 10000 Pa, and an arc side brush (you can buy a separate arc anti-tangle side brush and install it on Qrevo S by yourself).

You're welcome! Btw to ensure proper mop drying for this model, set the drying duration to 4 hours or more to reduce the moisture.

I've had the original Q Revo with no duo divide brush, I've had the Q Revo Edge and now have the Saros 10r with the duo divide brush. The duo divide brush really does make a huge difference. I have a Shepherd husky mix and that dog sheds like crazy but I don't see a single hair trapped on the duo divide brush.

Yes, absolutely! I have a self emptying, self cleaning robot mop and vacuum from Roborock and it is SO worth it IMO. I’ve had cheap, middle range and expensive and the only one I use is the one that self cleans etc. It is worth it, I think.

I have the Qrevo Roborock self-emptying mop and vac. I had a Roborock that was just a vacuum before, basic model, and it worked great for years, so I wanted that brand again. I used my Costco executive refund and the $150 off sale at Costco to make it more affordable.

Depends on your flooring and needs If carpets - Roborock - best vacuuming particularly if you pair it with an auto empty dock (most newer models) If hardwood and no pets (Read not an inordinate amount of vacuuming) - Eufy S1 Pro - Best mopping hands down along with pretty good vacuuming

Replacing the bag or the entire vacuum robot? I have two dogs and the bags fill up after about 5-6 weeks. This depends on the robot model as the bags are different capacities. Also, my Roborock robot has "Reactive AI" that has better camera-based detection of obstacles. When my dogs tear open one of their stuffies and get the stuffing everywhere the robot actual sees and avoids it until I clean it up. My old Roomba could not do this, and would either get clogged or quickly fill the disposal bag, so it's a good feature for reducing bag changes. Roborock doesn't have any models that are bagless. I think Shark is one of the few manufacturers that do. My Roomba robot lasted for 6 years before the suction motor burned out. I opted to replace it with a model with better navigation and cleaning instead of trying to repair it. I expect to get similar life from the Roborock.

I have not had to replace them yet. The app suggests "every 300 hours of use". With my Roomba I had to replace them because hair and string would get wrapped around the rollers and cut into the material. The Roborock rollers are a split anti-tangle design and so far have not caught anything and are practically brand-new still. I plan on washing them when needed and only replace them if they start to break down.

Thirding roborock. Love mine. I splurged on the self emptying model….totally worth it.
