Roborock - Qrevo CurvX

Bald dogs 😂 You asked this at just the right time when anti-tangling tech has essentially matured in robot vacuums. Dreame (DuoStream or TriCut brush), Narwal (conical brush), and roborock (DuoDivide) offer great antitangling solutions for their main and side brush. It’s become cheaper too as this feature has matured.

I think a model in the roborock q Revo line would best fit your needs~ I would recommend the Q Revo Plus (649) as it has the newfangled mop extend, a feature I appreciate since my corgi drools very close to walls and my previous robot couldn’t mop that area. If you want it to clean its mops with hot water (best suited if you cook a lot and need that grease dissolving power), I’d recommend the Q Revo Pro (799). I will say that the rubber brush is prone to tangling, which is most pronounced on the sides. Neither of the models I just mentioned have cameras so it’s good for those who are privacy conscious. Roborock’s extending side brush is not designed very well so I see complaints of it being stuck. If you want no long hair pet tangles on the roller and the side brush, you’d have to pony up a lot more for the Q Revo Curv (an ungodly 1599 USD) which is more likely to have its price fall drastically by the time you get used to it. There was also dreame I was considering but from the tests and reviews I’ve seen, it seems that roborock generally performs better with purely vacuuming the carpet and Dreame’s recent flagships can’t use the side brush on carpets.

This is definitely not exclusive on the ecovacs X9 pro omni. Ecovacs is late to this feature. Models that can do this well: Dreame’s L/X40 Ultra and newer (assuming there’s an RGB camera), Narwal Freo Z Ultra; Roborock Saros series and CurvX, MOVA P10 Pro Ultra, P50 Pro Ultra, Z50 Ultra, V50 Ultra

Most high end robot vacuums have learned to avoid this area with some models marking it as “furniture likely to get stuck on”. If the chairs’ horizontal legs are shorter than 3cm, both the roborock models with Adaptlift and the Dreame X50 Ultra/MOVA V50 Ultra will lift themselves to get over it. If higher than 3cm, only the dreame X50 Ultra and the MOVA V50 Ultra can cross it.

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.

If you’re in the US, I don’t really see a reason to spend that much unless you want to try the Roborock CurvX which can exert up to 12N of mopping pressure like the Narwal Freo Z Ultra but firmware means it goes too fast when mopping over stains when it should slow down. Other than that, I think is a solid top of the line robot. You could also try out the eufy E25/E28 for another roller mop. If you want the most aggressive corner/edge cleaning, dreame/MOVA will be better. Some dreame/Mova models like the X50 Ultra will be better for cleaning its own filter but has its own issues with battery life.

[I got this a few weeks ago](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DX1DQKMD?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1) It could have been dumb luck, it could have been algorithm based. Here's all I know: - I was frantically catching up on reviews to keep gold. So I was putting in 5 reviews a day. - I had previously ordered parts for my Roborock S5 on vine. - I had searched on Amazon for robot vacs with base stations that collected dust/greywater, and dispensed mop water - I got my grab at about 10:30am EDT. *** Today, however, there's a badass katana just calling my name. While you are all snagging free stuff from Amazon, I'll be studying the blade...

Question: is your wife allergy-prone? My wife (then-girlfriend) absolutely flipped her shit when she came home one day, she sees me fooling with my phone, she hears a noise and then my Roborock S5 comes buzzing around the corner. "OMG YOU GOT A ROBOT VACUUM!?!?!? YESSS!" I knew that she's the type that would have an allergic reaction in a hypoallergenic clean room that assembles microchips, but I guess I underestimated how excited she was at the thought of a daily automatic vacuum. *** [A few weeks ago I got in my RFY an upgrade to my S5.](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DX1DQKMD?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1) I think she's just so used to the robot vac, she only got excited when I was like "we can move the S5 to the upstairs now..."

I hear the spinning mop pads are better than rollers and definitely better than the stationary mop pads like you're describing. I use a Roborock CurvX with spinning mop pads and it's phenomenal.

Buying a high-end robot vacuum. Coming home to clean and mopped floors every night is priceless.

Roborock CurvX It has self emptying for dust, self washing for mop, and can swing the dust brush and one of the mop pads out to reach the crevices of the wall better.

It can lower the lidar sensor to fit under tables and chairs. It also has a carpet sensor that causes it to lift the mop pads so it doesn't mop carpet/rugs.

There's not much maintenance at all. You might need to replace the mops over time but the dock even dries the mop pads so no mold forms.

Roborock is great for its obstacle avoidance. I use the CurvX with 5 cats and 2 kids and it has had no issues.

I purchased Qrevo CurvX, which is good

I sent the saros 10R packing and bought the curv x. Other than the obstacle avoidance and the detergent dispenser I think the curv x is better. Much higher suction power, more downward pressure on the mop pads and retractable lidar for better navigation. I had them both for a week and ran them every other day and the water bin was much darker in the curv x. They also added quick charging which was important to me. They both leave water droplets on the floor while mopping.

No it doesn’t better mopper. Actually the 10 has more down force than the 10R, that’s why the CurvX is a 10 with spinning mops, they improved the down force. I don’t know how it takes you hours to clean the S8, my S8 takes me 2 min. Granted spinning pads are much easier. The 10r should take you less than a minute.

No idea. I’ve been very pleased with my Qrevo C I bought here in Australia on special a few months ago. Navigation just works. Hasn’t got lost once. Mapped easily. 5/2/2 260sqm house. Flat, tiles and carpet. 1 adult, 3 kids, cat and dog. Mops ok. Refill and empty on tanks more often than I thought but it’s max once a week if I use mopping a lot. I have alot of tiled are. Corners and some edges next to cabinets it isn’t great, but that’s me being picky. Vacuum is awesome as long as my kids don’t leave it too long on their rooms. Otherwise I’ve had to unclog the intake a couple of times, was very quick and easy. No defects so far. I don’t know anything about these in my model. Zero complaints. It’s definitely made this solo dad’s life better. I hate doing floors so it’s a big win for me personally.

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.

So I bought a q revo and dreame l10s and compared them directly and ended up keeping the l10s because it seems to do a better job of mopping (and is willing to mop in skinnier areas of my hard floor around rugs). I don't mind the worse app with dreame, it's completely usable and reliable, just with weird translations. I genuinely like the roborock carpets first feature but I don't miss it with scheduling. If you can afford the l40 ultra, that's what I would buy for the best features (hot water mop washing, self cleaning washboard, water turbidity sensor, mop extend & lifting brush, hair cutting roller). How much more expensive are the premier q revo models in your area (the master, slim, edge, curv)? If theyre the same price (or you can afford the slight increase) I'd get those for the best of both worlds: premier features and the superior roborock app.

Any of the rotary mop roborocks or any dreame. I guess dreame bc roborock q revos don't have soap containers. The newest roborocks can mop with warm water, which is insanely good. And they wash the mops with water hotter than tap, which is also amazing. It depends how badly you want the low profile of the retractable lidar? I really love the warm water mopping of the q revo curvx but I think I'd still go with the dreame x50. The dreame l10s pro ultra is also great for its price and adds some warm water and water testing. It sounds like you really care about handling the gray water so no matter which you'll get you'll want to plumb them in. The price of the dreame x40 master I think is amazing for being a plumbot ($900) but it's missing some of the newest features, tho not super lacking.

Just got the roborock Qvero curv for around 630 usd in my country (Malaysia) and am super happy with it!

\+1 for the Qrevo Curve. I just got mine and I'm over the moon about it.

We have 2 labradors, and I cannot even describe the amount of hair they shed. Our main vacuum is a Dyson, and we recently purchased a Roborock Q Revo Curv, which we are extremely pleased with. It replaced a much older Roborock model that had hair all over its internal parts, despite some maintenance. From our experience, you will still need to use the regular / more powerful vacuum, but the Roborock will do a great job. And the rotating mops do a very decent job, especially compared to the old model's mop (static pad dragged across the floor), but I recommend you properly clean it regularly so as little hair gets inside its components. As for the accidents, I see these newer models have all sorts of AI detection abilities that can prevent running over dog poop, but I never had the "pleasure" of going through this experience.

You can set a cleaning order. with the Qrevo Curve it’s possible and the app shouldn’t be much different

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!!!

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!

Basically, if you want the best vacuum and obstacle avoidance, you will want one of the top bots! Currently the top dogs are the Saros 10 / Saros 10R and last years models the S8 MaxV Ultra and the Qrevo Egde / Curve. We mop A L O T and like, besides emptying the dirty water tank daily / every second day and refilling daily / every second day, i only have to do "deep maintenance" which involves washing the water filter (its hard plastic so no drying time) and washing underneat it and the smaller mop with a damp cloth, and thats for someone who does the deep+ program once a week. If you just do regular vac & mop, depending on how big of a house you have, and the program you use, you wont need to refill the water tank more than like every 3 days realistically, and it only takes like 30 seconds to do so! Feel free to DM me if you have more questions or just ask them here :)

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'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

Q Revo Curv is by far the quietest robot I've owned and I've had about 6

I have a S8 pro ultra and a Q Revo Curv, and while it's been a couple months since I used the S8 (bad vac motor) It does seem to show more obstacles in the map while cleaning even though it doesn't have a camera

I'm uneasy about getting a robot hooked into the plumbing when I've yet to have one (besides a Roomba) last more than a year. My Deebot T8 had 2 wheel failures within a year then the 3rd died just after the warranty My Roborock S8 Pro Ultra charging error (known issue for years going back to S5) then the fan motor died. My first Q Revo Curv started having docking issues after just a week and eventually failed to recognize the dock at all. Now on my 2nd unit

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/

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.

Most people generally conclude it like this: Roller mop>spinning mop>vibrating mop>passive mop I think Qrevo Curv would be a much better option, but if you have low furniture, go for Saros 10.

You're doing all the right homework here — and your English is excellent, no worries there. Between the L40 Ultra and the Qrevo Curv 5A1, you’re right that the L40 has stronger features on paper: auto mop pad removal, detergent tank, brush lifting, and usually great navigation. The Roborock Curv wins on suction and build reputation, but at a steep price. That said, if *returning isn't an option* in your situation, Roborock's proven track record and reliability might be the safer bet long-term. Dreame has made huge strides, but quality control can be hit-or-miss depending on the model and region — and if you get unlucky, you’d be stuck. If your floors are mostly hard and you value automation and features over suction power, the L40 Ultra might still be worth it. But if durability and support matter most, Roborock is probably the safer investment. Tough choice — just depends which risk feels more manageable.

Running a QR Curve, same bot, different base. It has handled thresholds others could not. two or more weeks, with a cat and a long haired woman in the house and there is no hair in the brushes. Checked last night for the first time.

And I can confirm the Curv is just as bad. So there’s that. Hard floors it is acceptable, but carpet not so much.

Exactly what I meant thank you for saying it for me. That’s why I own an.x40, and threw my revo in the trash. I was referring to roborocks obstacle avoidance

Till your mop pads start falling off. And you get home to an uncleaned house

No they fall off the device on literally anything that’s on the floor. Check my posts

That duo divide is just awesome and worth the upgrade!

Not having experienced another roller, my experience with the DuoDivide, a shedding NFC, and a long-haired partner, is just problem free.

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

I have a Roborock q revo with mop and auto washing/ auto empty base station. I was skeptical about the mopping functionality but my wife talked me into it. I fucking love it.  haven’t touched the floors in over a year except vacuuming behind doors every couple weeks. 

No it's a Roborock. It looks like the model I have. They're awesome- self-cleaning, self-emptying, LiDAR room mapping, completely customizable routines.

It's a Roborock. Very similar to the model I have- Quervo Series

You're welcome! I forgot to mention but the brand of robot vacuums I like is Roborock. I'm like 90% sure I have a Qrevo with the tower, but they have so many freaking models now that I get them all mixed up. I have a much older model from them too that still works great but I got another dog and wanted something that had the auto-empty features and an actual mop, so I upgraded. So I can vouch that they're excellent!

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'm not sure what is actively considered a top vacuum but something I've learned the hard way is to make sure the robot has a setting to empty the dustbin periodically or else it will go through a whole run, then try to empty the dustbin and the charging station will get clogged trying to suck the large clump of hair into the dust bag. I have a qrevo and really love the robot but the fact roborock doesn't currently have an option to empty the dustbin every 100 sqft or so, means that I have had to set up separate schedules for each room so it goes back to the dock to empty the dustbin between each room. It's frustrating.

Totally. Yeah I also hoped they'd update the app to add that but I've had the robot since it first came out a little over a year ago and it doesn't have that yet so unsure if they will ever add that.

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.

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

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

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

The Roborock is a big hit, it's also very quiet (under the 65 dB mark). Also check out the Eufy on this list for under $500.... [https://www.soundproofgenius.com/get-a-quiet-robot-vacuum/](https://www.soundproofgenius.com/get-a-quiet-robot-vacuum/)

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I absolutely love my Q Revo. I bought it with intentions of it being supported by Valetudo, but honestly… the app works, the HA integration works. I have a geofence that runs the full vac/mop when I leave in AM thru HA. I trigger a night mop of kitchen at 1am via HA. I have automations that notify on the TV when the buckets need to be filled/dumped. I’m planning to 3D print replacement buckets with auto fill and dump — this is my only issue… needs that water and dumping based on size of house and how often you run the mop.

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!!

Dang. I have the regular Roborock Qrevo from 2023 and it doesn't look like it will get it.

Hopefully they will include it. I'm not going to buy a whole new one if they don't, but it would be a shame if they don't support it since it's not very old.

If you do compare feature on vacum wars web site You can see which has matter Recommend a robo rock qrevo for auto mation Eco vac t50 pro Omni is $600 n does matter n has mop n vac but I dint like the navigation so went back to robo rock qrevo s5a But robo rock is more $. Bout $850 You get what you pay for

Also owning an OG QRevo. The mop cleaning is noisy enough through doors and we have a decent difference in floor height between rooms that always takes it a few attempts to lift itself over. Not mentioning emptying the bin at the end of a cycle. It’s a decent machine. Will continue to use it till it breaks down permanently (wasn’t an inexpensive purchase for us).

Of these, the worst mopping will be the Q5 and Q8 robots, which just have stationary pads attached to the back. The S8 also has a pad attached to the back, but includes a scrubbing motion via a plate that vibrates at a high speed. It's better than the Q5 and Q8. The best mopping will be on the Qrevo and Eufy X10. They have spinning mop pads, a dock which refills the water tank on the robot from its own water tank, and also cleans the pads automatically and stores the dirty water in another tank on the dock. Of the last two, each has its strengths and weaknesses. The X10 will be better at obstacle avoidance. The Qrevo is a Roborock, which has a better reputation for quality and reliability than the Eufy, and is also rated a little better than the Eufy at a lot of things: vacuuming performance, mopping performance, etc. It also can swing out one of its mop pads for better edge and corner cleaning, something the Eufy can't do. In some cases, obstacle avoidance is really critical, in which case I'd recommend the Eufy. Otherwise, the Qrevo is likely your best bet.

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+.

I was in the same boat, but with Black Friday sales both the roborock qrevo (refurbished)and dreame l10s ultra (new) are available for $359. For that price it’s hard to justify spending 2-3x as much for a few extra features which don’t seem to make a huge difference in the actual functionality of the product. I bought a l10s ultra and hope to not think about it again for at least a couple years.

Any guesses on MSRP for the Z1? I have 2 acres and probably 1.4 acres of it to mow. I have a 60" commerical Exmark mower but I'm getting more sick of mowing by the year and yard companies want $200/week to do it, so that is a hard pass. I already have two Roborock vacs (S7 Max Ultra and Q-Revo) and have been fairly happy with them, so this would be a nice addition if the price isn't like Yarbo's pricing structure.

I’m a year in and don’t know what I’d do if you took away the Q-Revo’s mopping

+1 for Roborock, the q revo series with the spinning mops and auto docks have been amazing for me. There have a few different models so I'd compare them all but we have the slim and the master and love them both. They often go on sale - I got each of them for 1k or less. I had the s7+ and the mopping was disappointing. I'd avoid any simple dragging mops.

It is at least equivalent, if not even better. With physical disabilities I wouldn't pick a Vibrarise robot, because cleaning the dock might be a pain. Much easier with a revo mopper. You can just take the tray out for cleaning.

Second this. Is it under $500 though? I paid $1200 when it was new...

Sheesh, I got robbed lmao I love mine though, so no complaints

I have a roborock revo with a dock.  The thing I don't like it that there is no setting for "go empty in the dock after x minutes" like there is for the mop. So to deal with this, I created a routine for each room individually.  It then empty after each rooms. Do that once a day, and no clogs.

I use my Roborock Revo a great deal. I vacuum twice as much as the mop function.

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.

Second the OP.  I'd recommend getting a Roborock or similar with self emptying vacuum. It works best on hardwood floors. Carpet not so much. Look into robots with high suction power. Like the other OP, you will still need to dyson up nooks and crannies manually, but the ability to schedule frequent self vacuum in high traffic areas cuts down on your workload significantly.  The self mopping feature imo is not worth it, but maybe the newest models have improved.  From experience, you will want robots that can detect animals (I've seen videos where the robot runs over the dogs tails, gets stuck, and terrifies the dogs). Also look for ones that can detect objects like poop, so you don't come home to a Jackson pollock painting. Look into the clearance height of the robot as well, and compare to your furniture if you are looking to have the robot go under couches and stuff. For example, our roborock barely fits under the couch, and even with 1 cm clearance, will avoid going under the couch if it detects the under-couch fabric is hanging too low (we fixed this by reholstering the bottom of the couch). Worth mentioning if you work from home that the self emptying vacuum feature can get loud, but it is usually very brief and you should be able to schedule emptying times. The robot vacuum companies get you on the replacement parts, which are not cheap. You do get what you pay for though, and routine maintenance (cleaning sensors, replacing brushes, untangling hair from rollers) goes a long way in longevity. I haven't found a robot vacuum that does not pick up hairs in the dog roller yet, so expect to periodically open up the robot to remove hair (usually very easy). For replacement parts, you can go third party for cheaper. Especially so when buying replacements for big brand/popular models. For example, you can get an unofficial 5 pack of vacuum bags for the self emptying vacuum for the same cost as 1 official one (or something like that). For carpets, I'd just go with those manual carpet brushes. Picks up way more hair more efficiently than any vacuum. Just my 2 cents. 

Roomba's have pretty subpar mapping & navigation compared to most other brands. We have one (older) Roomba that relies on VSLAM for navigation and one Roborock that uses LiDAR; the difference is night and day. I would avoid iRobot on that alone until they change their tech.

For the price (£250) I am very impressed with mine. Its got LiDAR, a mop, empties itself, etc. Its really neat to watch on the app as it goes about your house and maps it out. Its only gotten stuck twice, and both times were on the same chair that has horizontal bars at floor level that it can get over if it runs at it head on, but can high side itself if approaching from an angle. Definitely does not replace vacuuming as a whole though as it just cant physically get into the corners, and the vacuum itself isnt enough to really suck stuff out of the carpet, more just pick up things on top. I treat it more like a broom than anything else, but having a pet it helps me keep on top of things.

Yes! Don’t get the Curv plus it’s cheaply built and ugly. The S8 MaxV has premium materials. They are all plastic but the Curv and Q series feel flimsy.

You might not be happy with the build quality of the lower end series like the Q. Stick with Premium. I would get the S series or Saros. The Q series feels very cheap compared to the S plus it can handle the hair NP. It’s a more attractive unit too unless you like a shiny egg that looks like it came out of an 80s movie. lol

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
