I went Roborock as the reliability is meant to be better than Eufy when I done reading into it (Alot of Eufys dying in only 2 years of use) Got a Roborock Qrevo Curv S5X for £450 in black Friday and it's been great. Washes the mops in hot water too which is handy. Routing and collision avoidance is good and it hasn't attempted to throw itself down the stairs. It's normal enemy are cables lying on the floor though which it doesn't recognise then gets confuse4d. Dreame were a close second for me as they're meant to be solid units too.

I have a Roborock QRevo Curv S5X, it does all of that. Our house is 3600 sq ft, 4 humans, one dog, and I have hand-scraped hardwoods. The floors look great every day. Vacuum daily, mop every other day

Good question. My one dog is small & doesn’t shed. My sister has 4 pugs and it handles her floors (she has same model). Not sure whether the amount of shedding is similar or not.

I have had it since August. The vac can me loud if on the turbo setting, but I rarely use that. Mopping is very quiet. Our bedroom is not near the kitchen/dining/pantry, so it does those at 2am vac then mop (has never woke me up, just have to remember to leave pantry door open before bed). It does my hall/bathroom/bedroom/guest bath/laundry at 10am, then our offices (2) at 5:30pm. Basically it works where we aren’t.

I have never had mine fall downstairs, and there is also the ability to set the “no go” zone there. I will say that I have seen on Reddit that some people got a dud and had to get it replaced, but I (and my sister) have had zero issues and the floors are spotless 🤷🏻‍♀️

Qrevo Curv S5X downstairs and Qrevo Edge S5A upstairs. Main difference is the docking station shape/color. Otherwise equivalent.

Same. Got ours in November and the floors are spotless. Complete gamechanger

Agree. Does my hardwood floors and tile floors perfectly, and raises the mops for rugs

Nvm found it, Yeah I see the Curve S5X only negative thing is that it has Reactive Tech and that obstacle avoidance is even worse than my older S8 :/

Exactly what I was looking for. I chose the QRevo Curv S5x. It’s basically the QRevo Curv without chassis lift and camera. It comes with extendable brush and hot mop washing.

I am happy with it, there are two people with long hair in our household and we have zero issues with the divided brush. I don’t miss the lift, we do not have door steps, only a 1cm height difference between bathroom and hallway wich is no problem.

Mapping went super well, edge cleaning is ok. Obstacles avoidance works for me but we usually clear the floor so we do not provide a good test environment. It won’t run over my crawling baby though :D

It works well with regular corners / edges but I think it should get closer to some cabinets oder out bedframe. I think it’s way better than an robot without extendable brush though.

Probably the qx revo arc because its the only one with roborocks duo divide brush, which basically makes it have zero tangles at all. Which you will probably need because your dog is a heavy shedder. Just be warned that all those models have pretty bad obstacle avoidance, so you will need to tidy up before you run it. Sadly it seems like the qx revo ultra isnt in stock or isnt there all the time, which is basically the best option from costco.

Im pretty sure its good with carpets, the whole curv line in general is really good with carpets

The Arc is the same as the curv s5x [https://makerworld.com/en/models/1251457-roborock-qrevo-curv-s5x-x-dustbin#profileId-1274103](https://makerworld.com/en/models/1251457-roborock-qrevo-curv-s5x-x-dustbin#profileId-1274103)

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.

Yeah went for the curv yesterday for £550 in the end. Got fed up if going round in circles. Just hope my dog doesn't eat it not for that money. Should have maybe got a cheap one for him to get used to first.

For the parents it's hard to beat the roborock app for ease of use. The s5x is currently on sale for 800cad or you can get the Costco equivalent for the same price (the arc model). It's got the anti tangle rollers which will help with all the hair. Only downside is no camera so it'll be more prone to bumping pet toys or poop. The mova p10 pro ultra is 550cad if you want something better at avoiding obstacles but the app isn't quite as stable. It also is more prone to hair tangles. Overall really great value though

If you’re getting roborock and want to be budget conscious, I’d get the Curv S5X
