Roborock - Qrevo Curv

I've owned a LOT of robots over the years, you get what you pay for. As for Ecovacs, they just arent anywhere near as good as the price reflects. They constantly lose their map, need to locate so frequently there's actually a button to do it in the app, the app isn't nearly as good as the other high end brands, and they break constantly. My Deebot T8+ had 3 separate drive wheel failures within a year. When the final one died 2 weeks out of warranty they told me tough luck, and wouldn't even sell me the part so I could fix it myself "for my safety" they said 🙄 Currently own a Roborock Q Revo Curv which is fantastic, The self lifting chassis means it basically never ever gets stuck because it'll climb is way out of trouble. I plan on getting the Saros 10R next, which is basically the same as the Curv but with: hotter water (and now has hot water on board the robot), can leave the mops in the dock, more powerful, detergent dispenser, newer and better navigation and obstacle avoidance with no lidar tower on top so it can get under low furniture better. The Roller mop will be the future, but currently the only robots that have one are inferior in many ways to their competitors. So I'm waiting on that one

Not an issue for the Roborock Q Revo Curv, out can lift itself over tall thresholds and high pile carpet. It's the reason I bought mine because I have an even thicker rug than that and no robot could even climb onto it

The q Revo Curv can lift itself for high pile carpet

I have an even thicker rug than this and my Curv has no issues

So far the split brush roll in the Q Revo Curv has proven to be the ONLY robot that has 100% no hair wrap

My Q Revo Curv has that feature under AI labs, it's turned on but so far I've yet to see it actually do it

I'm on my 3d Premium Mop/Vac since December. I've run Roomba Vacs for years. Roomba is no longer the top dog. They did manage my high thresholds well when I set up door mats across the threshold to make a bridge. They vacuum ok. The self empty is good. Their vac strength and object avoidance is lacking. First premium was a Dreame x40 Ultra. Great machine if it could hold its mops. Worked great for about 4 weeks. It was able to jump thresholds without an issue, it updated the map each run and identified obstacles well. It never got stuck. Never sucked up a sock, pen or tissue. Then it stopped picking up it's mops when heading out to a mop only cycle. Sent it back. Second Pre was an Ecovac T30 Ai. It had a hard time with the thresholds. Did not make it over established ramps that the Roomba's (2 different) and the Dreame made without a problem. This resulted in a bad map. Once the room showed on a map, you could send it to that room and it would jump the threshold 2 out of 3 times. But it had only looked through the door and saw half the room. So it would either mop/vac half the room or get lost when it got to the section it had not mapped. It did not update the maps as it went. So it was not possible to get a 'good' map. It also does not seem to be multi-floor compatible. It went back. If I didn't have high thresholds it would have mapped well and I'd probably be super happy with it. Functionally it was good other than the threshold issue. 3rd and hopefully last is a RoboRock QRevo Curve, same bot as the Edge in a different base. It has been running well for the past couple weeks. Object avoidance is not as good as the Dreame. It has got stuck on a cord 2x and sucked up a small black cloth I use to clean my glasses. Both times stopping and waiting for me to help it. After helping you set it down and press play on the app. It locates and continues where it left off. It does seem to clear pet and human hair from it's brushes. I've run it for a few weeks in a house with a cat and a girl with long hair. I just looked at the brushes last night and they had zero hair in them. Moping could be better. I'm still working on that. I think I need to increase the wetness or wash frequency, it leaves swirls. All that said, I'm probably keeping this one. The gripes are minor and I like it's ability to raise itself over thresholds. It currently is cleaning a room the others could not get in and out of.

Roborock Qrevo Curv/Edge both have adaptilift that raises the entire robot 10mm in addition to the brush/arm/mop 10mm raise. I have one and it can cross mats and pads without getting hung up.

Works fine for me. 😁 I have a raised carpet at the front door threshold for my elderly parents walkers and it climbs onto and off it just fine plus picks up whatever gets tracked onto it without issue. I was sceptical at first but it works so I'm happy. My master would get hung up there and my X10 would hit it's bumper on it and couldn't clean it.

Roborock qrevo curv does a fantastic job mopping and vacuuming the house cutting down on dust being picked up by the hvac and leaving the hard floors squeaky clean.

Roborock Qrevo Curv for downstairs (sealed hardwood) and a Roomba J7 for upstairs (fully carpeted)

Just don't want to lug one up and down LOL. It gets annoying since I run it everyday. The Curv is fine on carpets but I just don't trust the mop pad not dripping onto the carpet and there's more space downstairs anyways so I might as well take advantage of its mopping ability. The Roomba does excellent on carpets though. I've been using Roomba's since the Roomba 416 was released and that was a longgggg time ago. iRobot just isn't innovative anymore.

Author does not understand the market of robot vacuums. Article is really obsessed with stain cleaning and failed to test the top of the line robots extensively. Nobody is leaving spills on the floor so long that it turns into a stain only to send out a robot to clean it up. Author didn’t test the Roborock Qrevo Curv but bitched about 18 inch hair getting stuck in certain robots. Kept whining about dried on stains but doesn’t mention which water level was used on the mopping mode. Overall, this article just contradicts quintillions of YouTube and Amazon reviews and my personal experience.

Awesome, these are the 2 I've been most interested in seeing. I just purchased a QRevo Curv over the past week, but I've been a previous iRobot customer, so I'm curious to see why the new model performed rather poorly compared to all of the new competition. It's sad to see the decline of iRobot.

My Roomba 690 from 8 years ago is still working fine. Still on the original battery. Just purchased a Roborock QRevo Curv so hoping I get at least 5 years out of that for how much I paid. I think a lot of longevity is based on how often filters are being changed out.

If you have mostly tile or hardwood floors I would go for the eufy otherwise the qrevo curve if mostly carpet. I’ve had my s1 pro for about a month and it does great!

The Vacuum Wars [Best Robot Vacuum Top 20 list ](https://vacuumwars.com/best-vacuum-cleaners/robot-vacuums/)was updated yesterday to reflect the new robot vacuums we have tested in the past 2-3 weeks, as well as a few new algorithm changes. As a result we have a new #1 robot vacuum the Roborock Qrevo Curv! \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ **Here is the list as of 10/22/204** 1 Roborock Q Revo Curv (new to list) 2 Roborock Q Revo Master 3 Eufy S1 4 Dreame L40 (new to list) 5 Ecovacs T30s 6 Roborock S8 MaxV with Plumbing Option (new to list) 7 Roborock S8 MaxV 8 Roborock Q Revo Maxv 9 Eufy X10 Pro 10 Dreame X30 11 Dreame X40 12 Roborock Q Revo S 13 Yeedi M12 Pro 14 Dreame L20 15 Roborock S8 Pro Ultra 16 Roborock S8+ 17 Dreamtech l10 18 Samsung Bespoke Combo 19 Roborock S8 Max 20 Roomba Combo 10 Max \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ **Other Robots Added to the Dataset:** I also recently tested the following bots but they did not make the list: Shark Nevertouch Pro #26 Eureka J20 #27 Shark Power Detect #28 \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ **Other Changes to the List** New obstacle avoidance test scores included Updated Amazon review score ratings (done every update) Discontinued products removed (done every update) \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ **Upcoming changes:** in addition to testing **a lot of new robots,** I have been adding a pet hair test, which tests their ability to pick up 2.5" flattened hair on carpets, as well as resisting 7" hair tangles, bin size, auto bin frequency options, bin noise, and more. That should shake things up considerably once the scores are added.

The difference was the water usage only as far as I could tell. the Curv used almost twice as much and it really showed. I had significant streaks on my floors at my house. I gave a lot of weight to this issue in the algo and thats why it dropped so much.

I like this guy a lot, super thorough reviews and says prominently that he receives no money from the companies. Maybe he’s lying but I personally doubt it. I don’t think he built the business to get rich, I think he did it because he’s a nerd and enjoys it. To sacrifice AND your integrity…it happens all the time?m, but I’d bet against it in this case. His current top model is the new RoboRock Qrevo Curv. I just got it and love it. https://vacuumwars.com/

Hmm, I’m the opposite. Best robot vacuum I’ve owned and haven’t had any issues. The lifting chassis has been a game changer as well, hasn’t got stuck once, can make it into my bathrooms, and vacuum very high pile rugs. I also use the mopping solution and am very satisfied, everytime I change the water tanks I can tell it’s working and there aren’t any streaks, even on the edges by my floorboards. I have hardwood floors though, so maybe that makes a difference. Send it back and try something else! Maybe the Eufy S1 Pro Omni would be good for your situation, its mopping abilities are the best by a mile.

After happily using a Roborock S6 for quite a few years in a 600 sqft condo with 1 dog, buying a house, adding 2 additional furry friends(one cat, one more dog), and our S6 dying out with the dreaded “filter blocked or wet” issue(despite my best attempts to rectify it, including a full dismantling), I decided to bite the bullet and upgrade for our new found levels of mess. Our main issues in our fully hard floored home are dog and cat hair, as well as some wonderfully muddy paws that even with our efforts at the threshold to prevent, are sometimes unpreventable(100lb dogs will be 100lb dogs). After lurking in this forum for quite some time, reading countless reviews across multiple platforms, and watching too many YouTube videos, I decided that the no tangle split roller of the Curv along with the reported mopping performance and Roborock navigation system was a no brainer. My floors will be clean! My white kitchen floor will no longer smattered in brown! No more hair balls rolling across the hallway! Rejoice! Woof. We have had this $1400(purchase price) robot roaming our house continuously for 2 months now, and underwhelmed doesn’t describe how I feel writing this today and watching it. My biggest qualm: the mop quality is garbage. With the “official Roborock multi surface cleaning solution” including in the appropriate amounts in the fresh water tank, and the most thorough mop settings, I’m lucky if I’m left with anything better than a very odd brown streak around the edges of my floorboards. Usually, this is also seen in the middle of the floor, but the robot does not do a decent job against edges, vacuuming or mopping. Mopping is great. Just spreading the dirt evenly around the floor….sucks. Mop Score: 0/10. The duel no tangle rollers are great, and live up to the expectations I had. As a vacuum, it is mostly great, with the exception of the nav system. For some reason, it’s allergic to getting into tighter spaces and close to edges, leaving weird spots completely missed. Vacuum Score: 8.75/10 Occasionally, it decides to mop our living room rug. That’s less than ideal. Every time, “smart plan” will mop first, vacuum second. I haven’t found a way to stop this, so I usually run a vacuum cycle and then deep mop to embrace my futility. The app is great though, so cool! Intelligence Score: 6/10 I’m getting frustrated watching it do nothing in my kitchen for the second time today, and enjoying the brown tinge on my tile. I might try to just embrace it. For an evolution in Robovacs, this doesn’t feel like much more than what should be standard in 2024/2025. I wish I had opted for one of the Dreame models at a lower price point, but hey…I’m glad I got a cool rounded dock with no controls.

Roborock Geräte sind zwar gut, Die App jedoch SEHR komplex und nicht alles ist auf den Ersten+Zweiten Blick ersichtlich. Ich musste schon mehrere Male den Support kontaktieren. Das dauert auch jweils 1 Woche oder auch länger! Das Schlechteste daran ist, dass es keine Anleitung zur App gibt seit Jahren! Daher wird mein dritter Roborock (z. zeit der Q revo Curv) mein letzter gewesen sein! Es sei denn, Roborock macht endlich eine Bedienungsanleitung für die APP!!!

May I introduce you to [our dog](https://i.imgur.com/Frh7Abg.jpeg)? So I can say that I absolutely understand where you are coming from, he's basically the reason why we have a robot vacuum in the first place. Due to some unlucky circumstances I were able to test 3 different robot vacuums over the last 2 years and can give you a quick long hair review. * Roborock S7+: I needed scissors to remove the long hair from the brush. * Dreame L20 Ultra: Better, all the hair basically moved to the end of the brushes and I could rather quickly remove them with my hands. * Roborock Qrevo Curv: FINALLY! It has a "Dual Anti-Tangle-System", fancy name for one brush split in half and all the long hair get transported in the middle where the gap is and then get sucked in. It's running here for a month and there wasn't a single long hair that I had to manually remove.

Roborock QRevo Curv or Narwhal Freo Z Ultra. Both have no tangle brushes and good mopping.

I chose the Curv, Roborock had a better track record, and was generally solid all round performance. The down side is the sub par object avoidance. Narwhal is the better pick, if that's important to you.

I went with a QRevo Curv. I'm basically hardwood floors throughout, tile in the bathroom with a bath mat, and a small mat in the kitchen. Floors have never been cleaner. Prior to this I was manual mopping once a week (or realistically maybe 2x a month when I remember to), with a robot vacuuming every day. Now it has been fully handsfree other than emptying the dirty water tank and filling the clean water tank. I run a vac+mop cycle 3x a week, and vac only 4x a week. Definitely doing something - that dirty water tank is definitely not clear when I empty it.

I bought a Roborock QRevo Curv, it barely makes it over my 33mm threaholds and trie really hard. So iam really waiting for this one to be availavle and finally solve this issue for me.

Roborock said 3cm single or 4cm double. 3cm can be quite a struggle and anything above is unrealiable for me. Some of my threaholds are 33mm single 90° ones, which equals 3,3cm. Its a tiny bit too high for it :( Otherwise i love this thing!

This is really the only plausible approach. These models are brand new, though, so nobody knows yet if it will work.

You can check out videos of them at CES. They have a wheel that lifts them up. My experience with high-end robots is very different, though I have never tried Roomba. The obstacle avoidance is much better, the mopping is much better, and the auto-empty dock is extremely convenient.

Is better to get one nice robot than 5 cheap ones. Cheap ones don’t have auto emptying bin, auto mop wash, anti hair tangle brush, etc. You will be maintaining 5 cheap robots, that means, emptying their bins, refilling their water, washing their mops, cleaning their brushes from hair, etc… Roborock has the [Q-Revo Curv](https://global.roborock.com/pages/roborock-qrevo-curv-series) Dreame has the [X50 Ultra](https://global.dreametech.com/products/x50-ultra) to be released later this year. The Roborock can climb up to 4cm and the Dreame claims it will climb 6cm. They are both as hands free as they get. The catch is the price but if you can afford it they are definitely worthy. Roborock has an official integration with Home Assistant and Dreame has one through HACS. I’m a robot vacuum enthusiast and I have one Roborock and one Dreame. Thinking about upgrade to the new X50 Ultra when it comes out.

Roborock Qrevo Curv is the best on the market probably. Pet hair won’t tangle too easily since the brush rolls are great. The Roborock Q7 Max+ is the best value vacuum at the moment, and you can buy it refurbished too. Dual brush rolls are usually better.

I have long hair, a big fluffy dog and splurged on the Roborock Qrevo Curv specifically because it guaranteed no hair tangling on the brush. I've been using the vacuum for over a week and there are truly no hairs/fur tangled on the rollers or arm.

The only system that really seems to work to prevent tangles is the single-ended roller design. The cutter systems aren't cuttin' it. The only two bots that have that currently are the Roborock Qrevo Curv and the Narwal Freo Z. Both use bags, though. The Curv's biggest limitation is obstacle detection and avoidance. The Freo's biggest limitation is app functionality. Another possibility is the Shark PowerDetect 2-in-1 with the Pro base because it's probably the best bagless model, if that's important. It has combs to prevent tangles, but I haven't found definitive reviews to indicate how effective it is, and I'm skeptical.

The roborock qrevo curve or whatever the name is can go high enough so it goes over small bumps between doors which I think is useful. This however is not...

thank you so much for this info..... now I know Qrevo Edge/Curve wont be good enough for my place...

Roborock QRevo Curv for pets. The new designed brush roller is much better for dog hair. I just switched from Roomba to Roborock and it’s night and day how much iRobot is behind other companies.

Well the only real way to manage such cat fur is with a real vacuum like a miele or Sebo. My Miele compactifies months of kitty crumbs & fur like a champ (no cotton candy fur effect here). I use a dreame l10s ultra as my robot. I don't rely on the robot doing deep carpet cleans as I real vacuum about once a week but the dreame has been excellent with kitty floor and my long thick hair (with the dreame cutting brush). The q revo curv is the best robot money can buy right now so ofc that's the best recommendation. I like the dreame better for tighter margins and being more intrepid about mopping next to rugs. Get the dreame x40 master if you can afford it and do the water hookup as the water hookup is one of the final frontiers for a hands free robot. The dreame l10s ultra is sufficient and can empty its bin regularly to deal with kitty floof, but running it everyday should avoid any bin clogs. I would say the dreame l10s pro ultra is worth getting for hot water and water dirtiness sensor (advanced new mopping features). If you want the most advanced vacuum features get the roborock q revo curv. Checkout vacuumwars for feature comparisons and checkout RTINGS for some more grounded opinions. Overall stick with dreame and Roborock. They're repairable with great customer service and parts availability. One thing, the roborocks are SIGNIFICANTLY quieter than the dreames, but Pepperoni doesn't mind the dreame running. The Miele is ofc quieter than the robots on max power tho. Overall a robot is an amazing, indispensable companion to a bagged vacuum in a pet home! With my robot running multiple times daily, I almost never feel the need to "on demand" vacuum anymore.

I’d go with the Roborock Qrevo Curve—it’s got killer suction and mopping skills, perfect for wooden floors. If you wanna save a bit, the Dreame X40 Ultra is also a solid pick and does the job well. Since you don’t have pets, you don’t need to worry about fur battles, just good ol’ floor cleaning. If you’re still stuck in decision mode, [This thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/SmartRecommendations/comments/1jcd5yp/which_is_the_best_robot_vacuum_cleaner_for_wood/) might also help clear things up!

I just retired my 3 year old room a j7+ to a bedroom and bought a Qrevo Curve. Omg it is night and day difference! The curve is quiet, fast, doesn’t bump into things, and leaves the house clean. So far I love it!

None of what you shared looks all that extreme, any good robot should be fine. If you're really worried though, the new Roborock Q Revo Curv has adaptable wheels and suspension to help it not get stuck. Just be aware no robot will be able to truly replace a high powered vacuum cleaner for some of those deeper divots and crevices.

Detangling my old Neato D7 was a weekly chore. But with my Roborock Qrevo Curv, not a single hair has wrapped around either brush for the entire month I’ve had it.

It struggles to clean under the bath/shower mat (the dirtiest part of the house it cleans) and it won’t go under the toilets even though it has the clearance. But those are minor quibbles and I’m looking for something to complain about. Complete night and day difference from the old Neato, which needed constant babysitting. Only thing I’ve had to do it refill/dump the water tanks and it just today asked me to wipe down the sensors. That’s pretty great for a month of 3x a week cleaning in a house with a dog and wife that sheds more than the dog.

I know the Roborock Qrevo Curv and Edge do. There may be others.

I haven't seen any empirical comparisons on disinfecting, but you can see from the specs that the newest and most expensive models tend to be the ones that have the docks with the most sophisticated self-cleaning cycles with heated air drying that keeps getting hotter. I have the roborock QRevo Curv and the difference is dramatic compared to earlier generations of mopping vacs. It has scrapers that remove any debris off the mop pads, and washes them with very hot water and air dries them thoroughly. I'm blown away by how clean the robot remains month after month. That being said, I do put a little bleach and a cleaning tablet in the dock's dirty water tank every time I empty it (to prevent mold growth in there), and the tray at the bottom of the dock where the vacuum rests does build up grime and I remove that once a month for a thorough cleaning. As I said, I think this is worlds better than previous generations, but it's now a year old and there may be even better solutions in some newer models.

I’ve been running the Roborock QRevo Curv for 3 weeks after upgrading from a Roborock S7MaxV and it has been excellent. No hair tangling with the split dual brush. The only issue I’ve had is small objects (2-5cm) getting stuck and halting the cleaning cycle. I have young kids and a wife who crafts. We have an extraordinary amount of the small toys and charms everywhere. I’m sure more than 95% of the population lol, so most should be okay.

This is cool, but I'm not sure how useful it is. Maybe instead of simply positive or negative, it could drill down into more specific, e.g. "Good for pets?", "Good for carpets", "Easy to maintain", "Easy to use app" etc. For example, the obstacle avoidance in the Q Revo which has the highest rating here is pretty terrible. It will easily drive through pet waste spreading it all over your home and basically destroying the robot. I have two Q Revos, but no pets :)

I love the vacuum, but getting it to integrate with HA is a pain. I wish it was just plug and play.

I got it set up once, but the only options were basically to start (clean the whole house) or to stop. No ability to clean just a room, or to change the cleaning type. I just went to uninstall and reinstall, and now I can't even get it set up. When I try, I get a message "No device found within your Roborock account".

I bought the Q Revo two months ago and kept it for a month. When the Pro version came out, I returned the Revo and purchased the Pro. It's a fantastic vacuum (I upgraded from the S7; I've also owned a Roomba). For me, the Pro was worth the extra cost because of the flexible mop. The regular Q Revo can't get within a few inches of the edge of a wall, and for me, that was important. No other noticeable differences between the two models for me besides the flexi mop. I know the pro has more suction, but that wasn’t a deal breaker for me because my house is 90% hardwood.

I disagree. Got a roborock q revo with vac and mop, also with a station that washes and dries the mops and it is very good and helpful.

The Revo for me too! Using the HACKS roborock integration that works with Xiaomi!

This community: Wait, the next model will solve all problems. For what it's worth, we have dogs and I bought a Q Revo last week. Works great. Not 400 m\^2, but 300 m\^2 anyway.

App calls it just Q Revo so I assume normal?

Nope,  nothing changed.

As a qrevo owner, I'd get that if you aren't willing or able to find a spot for the auto drain then I'd either reduce the amount of cleaning (or do it when you're not at home). That said spinning heads are very good at mopping and I make sure not to put stuff around since it will get stuck at a left over cable.

I have a Roborock Q Revo in our 2 adult household and love it. I sweep out the corners occasionally since a round vacuum obviously can’t get into a 90 degree corner, but I don’t have to vacuum or mop anymore unless I just want to. My MIL also bought the same model, and they have three dogs in their home. One of whole sheds A LOT. He’s a corgi/lab mix and blows coat like a dandelion. It keeps up with all their hair, just needs more frequent dust bag replacements. It is so worth buying the right kind and getting a quality robot vacuum/mop. The cheap ones simply aren’t worth it. My father has a roomba (to excuse himself from ever actually cleaning) and it is awful. It will run over the same piece of hair multiple times without picking it up and then straight up avoid a certain dirty spot on the floor repeatedly. It runs on a random track of going until it bumps into something and then goes a different direction. He has also had problems with the batteries crapping out constantly and needing replaced because the capacity deteriorates so badly. The Roborock goes in a pattern; first does a perimeter sweep then goes in a grid pattern of vertical then horizontal rows. The Roborock takes floor plans of your house so you can select individual rooms for cleaning. There is a spot cleaning feature as well where you can drop a box to enclose a specific area that needs cleaned. You can set up scheduled for it to keep your house maintained and ignore it beyond weekly maintenance. I dump dirty water, fill the clean water, and wash mop heads once a week. I love it and would never buy anything else. Especially a Roomba.

I have the QRevo Curv and so far I love it. I have 4 cats, 3 of which are long hair. I’ve not had a single hair tangle since I purchased it. My older vacuums the S6 Max V Ultra was constantly wrapped up in hair.

Roborock Qrevo is expensive but works very well. We have two long-haired dogs who can shed a third dog before noon. The Qrevo sweeps and mops. We usually run it in the morning and again in the evening.

My Roborock quervo that I got two weeks ago has been incredible. We had a shark matrix because it didn’t have bags, but made a compromise to upgrade. It is like watching a Zamboni drive across the floor when it is mopping.

I had one of the higher end Sharks, can't remember the model, and I thought I liked it. It touted laser mapping, advanced schedules, etc. But then I got the Roborock Q Revo and it absolutely blew me away; made me realize how shitty the Shark was. At every level it's better: primarily it cleans way better, but also the app is better, it's actually easy to get replacement parts, and a ton of minor things that make it feel polished, like the robot will announce on its own device speaker what's happening, like why it got stuck or why it's returning to a dock. Contrast this with a few friends of mine that have even worse vacuums than the Shark: theirs get stuck all the time, can't find their way home to the dock, they end up not using it at all. Long story short, based on my experience it's absolutely worth spending good money to get a good robot vacuum.

Agreed, it's awesome! Mopping great if you have any wood. Only downside to the more expensive ones is the lack of camera to detect cords, which isn't a huge deal.

Same, and it has been worth every penny for us!

Got the same one, for 400€ it's great! Navigation is awesome but it indeed just won't detect cables… The ones that can automatically search for your pet and allow you to see it while further controlling the robot remotely are pretty cool, but it's not really a big deal to not have that feature.

I have a Roborock Q revo and I'm loving it :)

I also purchased one of these and have been happy with it. Does a great job. I recommend watching vacuum wars on YouTube. He purchases every single robot vacuum and tests them all.

Two long hair cats checking in with the Curv- no tangles and a spotless floor!

I'm using Roborock Qrevo right now. The price is budget-friendly, and the integration is native (support local based on the document). 

If I were buying today, I would focus on one that fills/dumps the water automatically. I have the Roborock Q Revo and it is solid… I just have to dump/fill the tanks after about three mops. I’ve got all the parts in my Amazon cart to automate this. My hesitancy has been about how much automation/metering do I want and how much safety net do I want!!

Just bought a Qrevo Curv yesterday. Super excited for it. I’ve never had a good bot, just a 10 year old Roomba that wanders around aimlessly with zero navigation.

Nice! Mine arrives tomorrow! I can’t wait.

The Q Revo has been perfection for us

Probably close to a year. Filtered tap water

Same. I got it a few months ago and my floors are fucking awesome now.

Not so plug and play then

Just an observation, doesn't mean it's not easy or doable. Just means it's not plug & play in terms of what that actually means. Plug & play means in this case that you add the vacuum to HA and it immediately fetches all available information including created routines. All you then need to do is to show that information on a card for example. Just pointing out what the term means. Looks like it requires a bit of effort to get going, which doesn't mean it's going to be hard, but it means it's not p&p. Apologies for the seemingly snarky remark.

Saw a few posts from people cursing how difficult it was to include routines, and how much yaml was necessary to make it all work. I'm talking mopping intensity, vacuum power, what rooms to do in which order and so on. I just gave up mentally before I looked into it more. You're saying it's easy, should I look again?

How tall are the thresholds? Most can handle 2cm with no issue but only the x40 ultra (24mm) and the QRevo Curv/Edge (30mm for a single threshold, 40mm for two consecutive thresholds that are 30mm +10mm) handle higher. Otherwise, you’d have to use a ramp

Generally: Dreame will have the best edge cleaning. This is on the x30 ultra and newer with the L/X40 ultra and newer models having an extendable side brush with the best extension algorithm right now. Mop extension lacks a spring which means it can ride up on quarter round floor moldings if your home has any. Roborock Saros 10R and the QRevo Edge/Curv are nice choices if there are no cables or pet accidents for it to eat. Narwal is a very solid option. The Freo Z ultra has the best smart cleaning mode. It’s okay taking care of things like hair and visible dust but still isn’t as good as vacuuming as it is at mopping. Eufy s1 pro is a very solid mopping option. Won’t edge clean as well as the above models but mops pretty well.

Any dreame model with a self cleaning mop tray? This would be the Dreame X/L30-40. It’s worked well at cleaning my corgi’s fur balls to the drainage area. The mop extend has worked well mopping his drool from the edges of the rooms where he likes to sleep. You can add any TriCut brush and the cover that prevents hair from going to the side to any Dreame model. It’s worked great at preventing tangles. Roborock Q Revo models are also worth looking at. Only the one with the DuoDivine brush is truly no tangle. The other brushes will have the hair and fur tangled on the sides. I recommend rotating mop models as they are better at cleaning off drool. These two brands are pretty good at obstacle avoidance and cleaning overall. There are roller mop models but Eufy’s ozone generator poses a long term risk in terms of reliability as someone reported ozone generators could degrade the rubber seals. Eureka J20 (Midea’s W20) doesn’t seem to be great at obstacle avoidance either.

I see, too much water just spreading the dirt around! Maybe a design flaw for the Curv

The comment about robot vacuums only being for small places is probably based on the old random pattern robots. Most robots now map and do well in large houses. It sounds like most mapping robots would work for you, since you don't want mopping, have hardfloors, and no pets. So anything with lidar (prefered) or vslam navigation. Obstacle avoidance might be a useful feature for cords, shoes, toys etc. left on the ground. It might be worth looking into a Eufy L60, iRobot Roomba j series, Roborock Q series, or shark. I'm biased because I have three robot vacs (Roborock S6, Ecovacs x1 omni, and iRobot Roomba j5+ combo) and my roomba j5+ is the only one that is reliable and working at the moment

Is there a reason why the Curv got beat by the Master for mopping? Makes you wonder if the extra vacuum power it says is worth it. Was it just because of the automated detergent? Trying to decide between them both and we have a lot of tile and a little carpet/medium rug.

Qrevo and qrevo pro are awesome!

We have the Roborock Q Revo and it's a workhorse.

Roborock Q Revo is IMO the best price/performance ratio while shipping with most flagship features, esp. the self-emptying station that also cleans and dries the mops.

I have a Q Revo that I'm not the happiest with (not great suction, mopping is decent, and obstacle avoidance is terrible) and like you, I was planning on replacing it with an S8... until I saw the Kickstarter for the S1 Pro and instantly backed it. Seems to address all of my complaints and can't beat the price ($899!). I plan on doing a review when I get it next month.

I'm of the opposite opinion and my reasoning is this: when you run these robots on a daily schedule, there's never times for stains to set and get as stuck on as they do in that german video. Another thing is, with the eufy if you spill something, or just want to do a cleaning after cooking something, it's super simple and quick to just walk over to the base, press the play button and have it do a quick run. With my Q Revo I have to go find my phone, open the app, select a mode, and then click start. It's more involved and requires enough steps that I often forget to do it until later on. What I think the eufy needs that would help a lot with really stuck on stains though, is a deep mopping mode where it increases water usage. I suspect that will likely get added with a future update. Regarding the non-lifting vacuum roller, from all of the reviews I've seen it doesn't really get dirty unless it goes over a wet mess that has chunks in it like tomato sauce. But even then, from the reviews where I've seen it pickup freshly spilled milk, peanut butter, etc., the only thing that left (a minor amount of) residue on the vacuum roller was the tomato sauce chunks. Jamie Andrews review will be out in a few days and I'm hoping he tested this more.

Jamie Andrews replied to someone else in this thread saying that his review will be out in the coming days, so we have that to look forward to. I commented above with a counterpoint as to why really stuck on stains aren't super realistic though. I'll repost that here in case you didn't see it: >I'm of the opposite opinion and my reasoning is this: when you run these robots on a daily schedule, there's never times for stains to set and get as stuck on as they do in that german video.

I suspect that will likely get added with a future update. Another good thing with the eufy and its roller mop, is that it also cleans much, much faster than other robovacs since it doesn't have to ever go back and wash the mops. I've seen a few reviewers mention it doing a full clean almost 2x faster than other botvacs. This stood out to me because sometimes I'll put off running my Q Revo solely because I know it can take a while and is loud, which is annoying to hear going for a long time while I'm in the room... and then I forget to run a cleaning session after. 🤦🏽‍♂️

Haha well that's more of a me problem because of my ADHD/ADD. If I don't immediately go get my phone when a spill happens, open the app, switch modes to only do "Kitchen", and start a cleaning, I'll completely forget about it until hours later. Even worse, sometimes I WILL go get my phone, but then get distracted by a notification or text, reply to it, and then lock my phone... without starting the cleaning! 😂 With the S1 Pro's base being at arm level and right between my kitchen/living room, I'd pass it when leaving the kitchen and could easily tap the play button to have it clean everywhere since it has great obstacle avoidance. It seems minor, but the simplicity of that one step process with a physical button and no distractions is perfect for someone like me. With the Q Revo's terrible terrible obstacle avoidance, I can't just open the app and click the big start button without first pre-cleaning and removing any cables from the ground so it doesn't get caught on them (it broke a lamp by doing this before). It's overall a more involved process that I often will put off until later... and forget about lol.

I agree, I have no idea why they’re using such an inferior system on their most expensive bot. Seems a bit lazy of them to not try and innovate like Eufy did. That was me in the Discord, by the way. :) My Q Revo was visibly making my white tile floors looks dingy and dull even with daily 2x mopping using their detergent with max water usage and frequent mop washing. For the past 3 weeks the S1 water has been very dark, but now it’s finally starting to lighten up and the floors look brighter than they ever have before. I truly have never been so impressed.
