Qrevo Curv 2 Pro

curv 2 pro has lidar + same amount of cameras as 10R (including wider side cameras) although it is more expensive than both curvx and 10r and not in US. Just bought curv 2 pro after researching a lot, after returning an L50 Ultra.

I got it for 1300 EUR after some discount from a retailer (includes 20% tax), quite expensive imo.

The curv 2 flow doesn’t have an extending side brush for corners, so I don’t think you would want that because you said you want good edge cleaning Roller mops are also more maintenance with the exception of the narwhal flows The curv 2 pro has more vacuuming power too I would say just go for the curv 2 pro because it seems like you wouldn’t wanna deal with the no corner cleaning and extra maintencr based on your preferences 

Probably waiting for the curvx to go on sale for 899 ish on Amazon, because it usually does. You could also have a look at the dreame l50 ultra. I think it does better with pet hair, but dreame has slightly worse build quality and customer service. You can’t really go wrong with either of them tho. Depending on how long your cat hair is, if you think it could cause tangles make sure you get a robovac that has some sort of anti tangle, like roborocks duo divide or dreame/mova dual anti tangle brushes. You can see some basic vacuuming tests and stuff at vacuumwars.com for a lot of robot vacuums.

Roborock qrevo curv 2 pro, which should also be from china. Heard stories about non existent customer service but so far am a very satisfied customer, v smart robot.

The Curv 2 pro also has vertibeam compared to the CurvX which may or may not help with navigating around certain objects.

The Saros 10R navigated better around my somewhat difficult furniture compared to the CurvX, and I wonder if Vertibeam had something to do with that.

The s9 maxV ultra (sold as the Saros 10 in other markets) has a more difficult to clean mop washboard compared to the qrevo Curv 2 pro and the Dreame and MOVA robots with the aceclean jetspray dryboard.

I’d go for the roborock QRevo Curv 2 Pro. It will fit into tight spaces better mainly because roborock generally has better navigation than Narwal and is shorter.

The extending brush on the Curv 2 pro likely has the beta feature of extending the wide brush to clean under crevices when cleaning along furniture like your fridge which was shown on the Curv X.

Both work just as well. You’ll be splitting hairs trying to find a difference in their effectiveness.

If you want it to mop I’d recommend it to have a base station that can clean its mops unless you’re alright with cleaning the mops after it finishes cleaning. The QRevo Curv 2 Pro looks like the best defacto flagship from roborock right now.

I highly recommend combo robots if your parents walk around the house barefoot, it greatly improves the feel! The combo robots I found best for keeping itself clean are the dreame and MOVA robots with the filter self cleaning function and the flat washboard. I was able to get away with making my MOVA V50 run everyday for 3 months without a noticeable change in cleanliness. After that it’ll be and the roborock Curv 2 Pro and the Narwal spinning mop robots which generally consume more water than the other options. The app is going to be a challenge for them but you can set it up for them and put it on a schedule so they won’t have to open the app at all.

All will do well with long hair. The dreame L50 ultra has an easier to clean self cleaning mop washboard but isn’t removable but can somewhat clean the filter when autoemptying. I’d also see if the Curv 2 pro is available as the self cleaning mop washboard is easy to clean and is removable.

There’s this review in German https://youtu.be/Qn_mZKM6c4U And this Italian review https://youtu.be/8z4uSgOFHqE I like the easier to clean removable mop washboard the most :)

Combo: roborock qrevo c pro Vacuum only: roborock Q10V Plus (my pick as it seems pretty close to the q10 s5+ which does well on carpet and has a floating main brush so it can get closer to the floor) or the dreame d20 pro plus at 599 with an antitangle brush which works great with fur Get these robots from somewhere like Harvey Norman, JB HIFI, or the good guys for easier returns :)

Would go for the roborock qrevo c pro for the best bang for buck under 1000 AUD! Get it from Harvey Norman/JB HIFI for easier returns :)

Mainly the antitangle DuoDivide brush working great for fur and hair and it’s navigation and app being better than ecovacs :)

Just tidy up after smaller things like cables and socks and it’ll be alright.

Would go for the roborock qrevo c pro for the best bang for buck under 1000 AUD! Get it from Harvey Norman/JB HIFI for easier returns :)

I’d get the QRevo C Pro if you have heavily shedding people/fluffy friends in your home. Can’t really think of a better bang for buck robot other than the QRevo C Pro in this price range available in Australia.

If you need it to under furniture with much lower clearance (like about 9cm) and automatic detergent adding is a non negotiable, get the Saros 10. If not, the Curv itself is a good choice. Are there any sales soon? If so, I’d wait for those.

How tall is the piece of transition? For a single one up to 30mm, the roborock models with the AdaptiLift chassis (the most expensive QRevo Curv/Edge and the Saros line). Anything higher up to 4.2cm, if a threshold is less than 9cm long (5.2cm if it is at least 9cm long), will need the Dreame X50 Ultra or any equivalent MOVA model (V50 Ultra). I am aware that Dreame's L/X50 Ultra and any model (such as MOVA's V50 Ultra or the rare UK-only Dreame L40s Pro Ultra) that uses dual conical brushes has a *live fur compression* feature (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOOU0uJsVdU), which helps mitigate the issue of pet fur clogging the dustbin, even though the space isn't fully utilized. I saw it in action, and I think it lives up to its claim. It also cleans its filter when auto-emptying. This should be helpful for homes with heavy shedders such as yours\~ For paw prints, I think a robot that can identify messes like this and act accordingly would be important too. Dreame and Narwal do well with this if you turn on certain functions, such as their smart cleaning mode and intelligent mess detection.

After daily vacuuming then mopping, my hardwood floors became notably softer and had a shine. I’d recommend robots with roller mops or spinning mops. For roller mop robots, I’d recommend the eufy S1 (Pro), eufy E25/E28, MOVA Z50 Ultra, and the Narwal Flow. All of these robots except for the eufy E25/E28 will have good obstacle avoidance. For spinning mop robots, I’d recommend dreame/MOVA robots with the AceClean/jetspray dryboard, the Narwal Freo line with an all in one base station, the roborock qrevo line. If obstacle avoidance is important, I’d consider the Dreame L40S Pro Ultra, L/X50 Ultra and the Narwal Z/Z10 Ultra.

https://www.smarthomeassistent.de/saugroboter/ Narwal robots and Roborock’s spinning mop robots have the easiest to clean mop washboard as they’re completely removable (the autoempty Narwal models have a disposable dustbin attachment to avoid cleaning it but I find that rather wasteful). The roborock base qrevo is already a pretty good robot as it’s pretty tangle resistant with an all rubber main brush. Roborock’s generally vacuum better than the Narwal but the Narwal has an antitangle conical rubber and bristle brush that works great with the smoothest obstacle avoidance for camera enabled models with the best smart clean mode. As for models, the narwal’s Freo Z ultra is at 549 euros. However it’s very water hungry and requires constant water tank refilling and emptying. This should be the most cost effective choice if you are mainly concerned with ease of maintenance.

Bigger dustbin + good use of dustbin when it comes to fur (no empty space should be in the dustbin when fur clogs it) + frequent autoemptying = better for dealing with hair and fur. For a vacuum only model, the roborock Q5 Max+ and the Q8 Max+ have a sizeable dustbin and uses the dustbin space well and has an autoempty station. The dual rollers help with fur pickup. In the US Dreame’s L/X50 Ultra fulfills these requirements as a combo model. So does the MOVA V50 Ultra for Canadian customers. The QRevo series has the same issue with some dreame models where the dustbin will be clogged with fur but there’ll be a lot of empty space on the sides. It’ll be good for picking up fur on carpets with its dual brushes but I think the eufy X8 should be better for dealing with finer dust.

I went with the curv 2 pro instead of the saros 10R because of the better moping 100C, suction and self cleaning. Also comes in white and cheaper which are a plus to me.

Can I ask what settings you use on your curv 2 pro? I have a large house and I currently set a routine for my roborock curv 2 pro to first vacuum only (Max suction, deep route), then vac & mop (Max suction, min water flow, standard route) for each room. But the battery drains really quickly and unable to complete the full house in one charge.
