Roborock - Qrevo Edge

It blows my mind how far Roomba has fallen. I was a die-hard fan and would have died defending them until I got my first Roborock, a QRevo Edge, and my life has been forever changed. It is beyond superior in every way to my Roomba which was demoted to basement duty. A huge plus for me was the ease of integration into Home Assistant. It plays so much nicer than iRobot.

I bought the Roborock edge because of their review and absolutely love it. I used to be a die hard iRobot user up until last September. Best vacuum I’ve ever used!

I got the Roborock Edge back in September. The other half was not pleased with the money I spent but now she isn’t sweeping up dog fur everyday. She quickly grew to love it. Especially for the kitchen.

I just got the Roborock Qrevo Edge and it’s been doing great so far. I got 3 dogs (husky, aussie, min pin) and a cat. It’s picking everything up and moping pretty well. The only con so far is the price tag. It’s a little on the expensive side but I read the brand is really reliable.

I bought it recently as well and agree on many of those points: -it’s not vacuuming crumbs very well on hardwood floors. Definitely doesn’t pick up pine needles from a Christmas tree -when i do vacuum + mop, it would just mop over the crumbs -it did make little piles of hair all over the place on the carpet which i just ran around picking up afterwards. -the app was awful when it first started making the maps. Sometimes the maps would just go missing and I’d have to map again. So far so good though, they haven’t disappeared in a few days Positive note: when i reached out about returning it the customer service was fast and they sent me all the details without a fuss. So i do appreciate that, thank you

I got the edge and returned it before the 30 days because even though it claimed 18500 pa suction (one of the highest in the market?) it couldn’t suck up crumbs or Christmas tree pine needles and if the mop was on, it would just mop right over it. Was baffling, feels like maybe i had a dud? When it came to pick up human hair it would leave the clumps around the house (at least it clumped them so it was easy to identify on the rug). It also got tangled in cords and stuck on the legs of the ironing table. I will say on positive notes: the customer service was great when i asked to return it, the mop cleaning was great, and it avoided the walls well. Hope that helps

Neither. 1) roborock has horrible obstacle avoidance, especially on carpet so they will eat cords, towels and socks so it's hard to run any of their vacuums on a schedule 2) the roborock s8 maxV ultra is a 2 year old design as this point and their sonic mopping system is outdated. It seems like they didn't want to cannibalize their QRevo line up and stacked on a silly side mop onto it. 3) the QRevo edge is good but if you are set on roborock, check out the QRevo slim as it has the best object avoidance out of all Roborocks but that isn't really a high bar to overcome as their robots have object avoidance that is comparable to a $400 robot. Personally since you have so much carpet, I would recommend the Dreame X40, L40 and the Mova P10 pro ultra (sub brand of Dreame). All have excellent hardfloor and carpet performance while also having class leading object avoidance. I currently have qrevo slim that I'm testing and a Dreame x40 ultra. The x40 just a far better cleaning system due to the object avoidance since I can run it daily.

In terms of performance for value, the Roborock Qrevos are good. I don't have experience with other brands so there may be better options. I like the Qrevo Pro for the money. The Qrevo Master has the dual roller brush which is a little better and it the arm extends to get debris out of corners better. The Qrevo Edge has more suction and the divided brush, which I believe is even better than the and it has more suction, which may not matter much. I got the Qrevo Pro for \~$550 on sale. The Edge is about twice the price right now. I would like the extra features, but not for 2x the cost. Maybe wait until the Prime day to see if they go on sale? The Mova P10 Pro Ultra looks similar to the Qrevo Master, but it has only one roller. So maybe better than the Qrevo Pro, but not as good as the Qrevo Master? It seems to be priced about the same as the Qrevo Pro. While I like the Roborock Qrevos, I would prefer to have a robot that vacuums up dirty water and cleans the mop as it goes.

Well, Roborock with Adaptilift would do the job (Qrevo Edge/Curve and Saros 10/10r) or Dreame X50 Ultra and Mova V50 Ultra. Most robot vacuums can climb up to 2cm, but that's the maximum limit, so you better choose the above models. Btw, I love your room layout. It looks very pleasant to my eyes.

Ok, kind of similar to me then haha... You might want something with a camera for the toys, I have a Roborock QRevo Edge and I'm pretty happy with it, but it's quite recent and many features might be overkill (threshold climbing, etc). Depending on budget obviously, you might want a slimmer version, or something cheaper like the QRevo Pro which has the most useful features, but no camera. You'll probably want to move the toys a bit though as even if it avoided them, it would be cleaning less uniformly. https://global.roborock.com/pages/robot-vacuum-cleaner-compare Not sure how Israel is with current models, but many of those might be missing like in Canada, but found this comparison tool a good first step in my shopping comparison within their models. Not an expert in other companies, but others might have ideas and experiences. :)

The dual mop is cleaning better, from what I can see in tests, so unless you get the 10R or really need a super thin robot, the Edge is probably a better choice (Until the EdgeT some day ..) But my Edge camera did spot things to avoid (wires, scales, bar stool, baby bouncer chair, ..) but I haven't tried to spread the toys everywhere as I want the area cleaned, but I'm sure most would be avoided unless they look like dirt, a carpet, are transparent or basically very small and I suppose other models might not do much better, there is no magic guarantee just yet on that front I'm afraid...

Yeah same, go for the latest updates (I have the Edge and it's great).

The Edge apparently doesn't, while being the same, but that said vacuum war is too often randomly re-sorting their list and they don't test scientifically enough that I have a hard time taking them seriously.

So if the S5V is the Curv/Edge, but without warm mop washing, camera, lifting roller brush, lifting chassis and 2/3 max suction, it's probably a great deal at that price! (Currently using a Q8 Max+ and Qrevo Edge)

I have the QRevo Edge (Curv with different shape station) and besides being under my sofa, I'm not sure what I'd gain with the 10R. I would have gotten it if it was available for the same price, but it's going to be 30% more with no real gain...

I feel like this is too much of a dichotomy, I run a Q8 Max+ and Edge white I'm away, in 2 different places with a toddler, and though I tiddy the toys a bit, I'm not touching anything else and any LiDAR Roborock these days will do an amazing job navigating a normal house. Just watch him run the first time or two and adjust the one thing that may be problematic, but don't go spending hundreds more for basically no gain for most people. Yes for the sofa if you can afford it... I didn't feel it was worth it in my case.

I agree that if you can get the 10R for less than 200$ difference and can afford it, go for it. I tidy the toys mostly because it doesn't make any sense to clean around them only, but the Edge has reported wires and toys on the camera quite often, so unless you really are trying to run it through a battlefield, I feel like most people underestimate and worry too much about any of the current robots abilities...

Thank you for this wonderful review. I returned my US$1,599.99 2024 Roborock Qrevo Edge because its obstacle avoidance was bad, getting caught on wires and cat toys that my much older iRobot Roomba and Neato Botvac robot vacuums avoided easily. I was planning to get the Roborock Saros 10R because I figured the Starsight was the next big tech upgrade from Roborock, but I'm reading too many reports that it isn't quite there yet.

Update : got a refund and bought the new Roborock Q Revo. Hopefully it’s better for us.

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.

Only the forthcoming qrevo edge and curv can handle a threshold like that.

I had it in my cart a few minutes ago at Amazon and with a $200 discount and a 3 year extended warranty it was still $2k and I just couldn't pull the trigger. I'm going to make myself wait for the qrevo edge that can raise its entire body to cross obstacles along with raising the mops and brushes.

Second Roborock. I have the Q revo edge (out of your required budget) and it's a phenomenal vacuum. Great company too -, their app works flawlessly. The cheap branded ones tend to not have great suction power and leave a lot of dirt around.

I guess it's the S10R 😅 I shouldve asked this question. Bought a Qrevo Edge a month ago. Still an excellent robovac though, I would recommend the Qrevo Edge.

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.

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.

You’d definitely want your robot to clean frequently. I run mine twice a day. Dreame L40S Pro Ultra is 1799 at JB HIFI and will clean just as well if there are no thresholds up to 2.4cm. QRevo edge will be better for higher thresholds up to 3cm. However, the MOVA z50 ultra will mop much better than both models.

For spinning mops: Station Self cleaning: Dreame X50 Ultra > roborock Curv/Edge Saros 10R > Dreame L/X40 Ultra >≈ Ecovacs models with wipers in mop pad cleaning tray marketed as the 150 day cleaning free tray > roborock qrevo > all other dreame and ecovacs robots

Q(X)revo is an excellent entry level active mopper. A huge upgrade to an S5. Welcome to the world of active scrubbing and autonomous washing with water management. You will enjoy it.

Let's make some corner points. \* What moves will eventually break. So you may possibly not want the most tech cramped can-do-it-all robot like Saros 10R, because repair cost would not be cheap. \* Do you need it to climb thresholds >2cm? Then look at Qrevo Curv/Edge and Saros for their AdaptiLift feature. \* Long hair and pets -- A robot with the DuoDivide main brush system is recommended. It's doing a great job with anti tangling hair removal. My best guessed pick would be a Qrevo Edge S5A or Curv S5X, depending on which dock design you prefer. The robots are technically the same. These are light versions of Edge and Curv, don't have the adaptive body lift, don't have camera and voice assist. But you save quite some $$. Qrevo S5V is an economy choice, also having the DuoDivide roller brush. For lower maintenance, go with a revo mopper. Don't get a Vibrarise / sonic mopper.

Qrevo EdgeT with some extra consumables, definitely. Costco made another deal to sell an exclusive model. I guess the EdgeT will not be available at Amazon or Roborock store in the US. But ehm... what's that name? Another naming scheme violation. "Ultra" was always a dock with the washing system for a Vibrarise robot. So "Ultra" contradicts with "Revo". But who cares if it sounds cool and could be sold in huge quantity? I guess Costco customers will love it. Its configuration makes sense, even when you cannot get the high threshold climbing for this price.

I've owned both (Edge not curv but they're identical besides the base). My Qrevo Edge stopped working after a month so I just returned it instead of getting it replaced under warranty and waited for the Saros 10R instead. I've had the Saros 10r for a couple days now and ran it multiple times so there may be some things i'm not aware of yet but the main things i've noticed so far is that the Qrevo had bigger tanks so you don't need to fill the tank / clean out the dirty tank as often. Qrevo obviously has a bigger base footprint as a tradeoff. The Saros mapping was better/more accurate than the Qrevo and was able to accurately depict problem areas / pets. It automatically was able to map out my shoe rack, bed, couches on the map as well as all the rooms and carpets very accurately. The Qrevo wasn't bad by any means but the Saros has definitely been slightly better. I have a little 2 inch step up going from my kitchen to living room and both had no issues dealing with it. Both the mopping and vacuuming are of similar quality from the few runs i've done but i've also not had any extreme messes either. In terms of object avoidance, my Qrevo Edge was not able to avoid some cables or other things like small pet toys my puppy would bring out at times. Once it even ran over a little log (of shit) my puppy left out for it which caused me to have to open it up and clean it out. I haven't had this issue yet with my Saros in terms of pets. Fortunately my puppy is slightly older now so it's not shitting in the house so I can't say for certain the Saros would avoid it. I primarily used the Smartplan feature for both and both are good enough to handle my 2 dogs hair with no issues. I think the Saros 10r is a very slight upgrade over the Qrevo Edge/Curv but I don't think it warrants "upgrading" if you already have a Qrevo. It's definitely less of an upgrade if you have massive areas to clean as you'll need to swap out the water tanks far more often but that's also just an expected tradeoff. I do personally think if you're in a return window it's worthwhile to do so but realistically it's a very minor difference.

I have 5 dogs and run a doggy daycare and boarding business out of my home. I've had a few different brands of robot vacuums and vacmops, which have all died just after their 1yr warranties. Did a ton of research and decided to make a huge investment in the new, $1600 Qrevo Edge. I've had it about a month so far (halfway through my 60 day trial period), so here are some thoughts from a superuser: PROS: - I love how it looks (simple but true) - It empties and refills itself, which is amazing - Also love that it cleans itself - It's not as loud as some of the others I've had - it's pretty easy to clean CONS: - It doesn't clean the floors nearly as well as a $1600 mop should... - Supposedly it also cleans the carpets? I have that function on, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything - the app is not user friendly at all - it's supposed to let me see my dogs...how? Where?? Don't see this functionality - this thing has gotten stuck just about every time I've run it, something my much cheaper versions didn't do - it's also the only robovac I've ever had that ran over dog poop... 1mo review summary: this thing is nowhere near worth the price, and if I end up returning it within the next 30 days, I won't be going with roborock at all again

My dreame x40 has the side brush error and goes back to Amazon. Edge has taken over and looking good so far .

Qrevo edge is my pick. It’s technically a few months old but only came out in Aus last week. So even if there are new models coming we probably won’t get them for another year. Roborocks software is a step above the other brands

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 :)

Ok, so you want to tell me that premium robot vacuum which cost 1000 euros (qrevo edge) is recognised as mid / cheap solution? And it's still too cheap to have a proper object recognition, so we need to spend 1500 euros on saros 10? Sorry but in which price point we are going to say "that's enough"? The new one with the robotic arm is priced around 2000 euros. It's just getting ridiculous.

Let's not compare graphic cards to vacuums, because it's not the same size of the market. The only real competition to nVidia is AMD, where roborock is against 20 or more brands. I am waiting when qrevo edge will be discounted because I wanted to buy it. For example dreame x40 ultra is now discounted in my country, but after reading dozen of posts of people who have problems with this brand, I decided not to buy it. I could always choose ecovacs for example, but because I want to use one app (modded xiaomi mi home app to control all home devices), I decided to keep roborock as my primary choice.

I've ordered the qrevo edge. Was holding out for the curv but given it's virtually the same with just a different looking dock decided to pull the trigger on the edge with the free H5 as part of the launch offer. The CES robots won't get in Australia till late this year I believe, given how long it took to get the edge/curv. I hear dreame support isn't very good. Other than that dreame maybe a good option - keep in mind the x40 ultra doesn't spin the side brush on carpet which makes it a no go if you have edge to edge carpets. I'm coming from a roborock s7+ and my experience with roborock has been great. Wanted that newest with spinning mops, fully automated dock and threshold climbing and so decided on edge! You may not need the threshold climbing or may not have edge to edge carpets and perhaps you want better obstacle avoidance - then go for dreame x40.

Update: the qrevo edge does clean and traverse the mats just fine.

I caved and bought the Roborock Qrevo Edge 5v1 (Don't need the jumping feature the Edge has, the house is level all around.) Just got it for 600 usd on sale! Can't wait for it to arrive!

Honestly I'd recommend avoiding Ecovacs, look at their reddit community. I ended up buying a Roborock Qrevo Edge 5v1 and it's been awesome. Cleans edges real well and doesn't leave streaks on my marble floor.

My Roborock Edge 5v1 does an immaculate job cleaning edges and mopping my marble floor.

My Qrevo Edge has been great. Did you enable the camera?

I wanted to share some differences between the 10R and Edge/Curve on carpet. I noticed the Edge was constantly getting stuck on our dogs toys in the bedroom, but other rooms it never had issues. The only difference was the rug in our bedroom. I setup a testing area to highlight the performance of the 10R over the Edge with object detection on rugs. As you can see, there's a huge difference between the two units; the 10R clearly has better object recognition, but the cleanup is not as good as the Edge.

I really enjoy the 10R, the Edge was nice, but the 10R is pretty much set and forget.

I believe so, the unit definitely needs better firmware. Currently I’m using the stock firmware with “Less Collision” set to None. I also discovered I need to tell the unit to “ignore” items within the map, something I’ve never had to do before with the Qrevo Edge. This makes me believe the Saros 10R has some amazing obstacle detection via hardware, just poor software behind it. I’m hopeful Roborock will apply better updates soon.

The Edge will perform the same as the Master as it relates to object avoidance. The Slim is only slightly better. My guess is you will find it to be sufficient for your expectations. Come back and let us know what you think!

It is a very basic system which has not improved much from when it was released which is a hardware limitation. I find the reason you often get mixed reviews has more to do with a lack of understanding of object avoidance which is only designed to pickup and avoid items on the floor that are lower than the lidar on the decklid. You can see the Pro (which has the exact same Reactive Tech object avoidance as the old Q Revo and the Qrevo S) can only really avoid the cup which all robots even with no object avoidance are able to do [in my latest review video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSMqTKFj-aQ&t=74s). I always recommend picking up before sending any robot out. If object avoidance is very important the S8 Series is a good bit better than the Q series. [In my review of the S8 MaxV Ultra](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmWjtQRcG4s&t=444s) you can see how much better it performed than the Qrevo Pro and even the Qrevo MaxV which lacks additional sensors found on the S8 MaxV. If you have pets that have accidents in your house do not rely on a Q Revo to avoid it.

How does this compare to qrevo curve? Thats what I just got causeni didnt wanna wait the one week for the 10r. Also cause the buckets were small and we live in a big open house. Did I make right choice or should I return and rebuy 10r? Lol

Yeah I have the edge, not curve. I misspoke I itislly lol. Brand new ti me and knew I was looking at curve edge and saros. But I have edge too. And I do have a big space its running in so the tank size is important for me. Guess I’ll hold onto it for now!

I just bought the edge and might return it for this. Looks exactly the same as an Edge plus RetractSense

Roborock Edge is the quietest robot I have ever had.

To me it’s easy choice. The Curv since it has the anti tangling roller and side brush and you mentioned you have cats and person with long hair. If you don’t care about that then get the cheapest. They are both very similar, the Curv dock is a bit easier to maintain but that’s about it. Don’t get the 10R unless it’s heavily discounted or you need top notch obstacles avoidance, or you have thresholds higher than 2cm.

Get a roborock with adaptlift feature. They can raise their whole body a bit so that they don’t get stuck in high pile carpet. No need to go Saros line. Getting an edge or Curv (watch out, not the S5A or S5X models, they are trimmed down version and have no adaptlift among other things missing) gives you pretty much flagship level for a bit cheaper

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

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

I had a Qrevo Curv for almost 2 weeks. When it arrives I vacuumed all my apartment with Curv and then with my old S5. I attached an image with the S5 filter after full vacuuming after the Curv vacuum the same area. I expected S5 to get some dirt but not so much. https://preview.redd.it/3p4yx23c2n6f1.jpeg?width=4080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e583317de0212ac550d57f79ad68f750ae506539

I don't know why these people are recommending anything other than the QRevo Curv It's the only one that's confirmed basically 0 tangle (which is a nightmare for older bristle models) + it has bristles.. Q8 Max+ does not - it only has the plastic flapper which basically pulls no hair up. Spend the money and get the Curv.

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.

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

I was in the same boat and then just quit thinking about it and grabbed one of the stated 'best'. I bought a qrevo curv.

We have just purchased a Qrevo Curv and find it to be incredible. We have quite a large house with a complicated layout with a bunch of different thresholds, a range of floor coverings, an eclectic collection of furniture, and we have pets. It is early days yet but we are impressed to say the least with its performance.

QRevo Curv is the #1 vacuum on Vacuum Wars right now. Was recently on sale and will probably go on sale again for Black Friday. Mine has been great since I got it a couple weeks ago. If you want a less expensive option the QRevo Master is very similar for a few hundred less.

I ended up buying the CurV model. Hair doesn't climb the baseboards so much but it could also be that we keep up with vacuuming?

I ordered the Qrevo CurV because it's on sale for 1K target and it seems to have better tangle free features. Do you approve?

If I was you I’d wait until the next big sale and get one of the flagship models. I got the Qrevo Curv during Black Friday for $400 off. At the same time the Eufy S1 Pro Omni was $999. The flagships have better camera systems for obstacle avoidance, higher suction, and other “advanced” features that will probably improve your experience. With CES 2025 starting tomorrow, I could see a lot of liquidation sales happening. Look out for prices on the Narwal Freo X Ultra, Eufy Omni S1 Pro, etc. Additionally, the Yeedi M12 Pro+ has a $250 coupon right now and I’ve heard good things.

Saros 10R and Qrevo Curv both have the DuoDivide brush, which is great against hair tangles and terrible for vacuuming carpets. They are great mops and the automation is amazing, but they are worse than the one you already tried for what you need it to do.

Look at the qrevo curv, it’s a better version of the s8 maxv ultra. I got mine recently and it blows my s6/s7 maxv ultras away. It doesn’t miss stuff like those did and can even handle my high pile shag rug.

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.

The build quality is quite different. The S series is a step up. You can feel the difference in the thickness of the plastic, the texture surface and trim level. As far as cleaning goes they both perform well so it’s just your preference. I think the Xanadu egg shape is ugly and outdated. I prefer sonic mopping with great dirt detection.

You get what you pay for. I owned both. I’m a bit bias. The curv mop pads don’t seem to get clean very well by the dock. I would rinse them out after they were cleaned, and there was still dirt in the mop pad.

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

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.

Seems like a very good robot, it’s a bummer Eufy dropped the ball on Matter support by not including the room selection feature. That was a dealbreaker for me, I just bought a Qrevo Curv instead because of that even though it’s not as good at mopping.

QRevo Curv can't reliably avoid cables and cords, IME. Roborock seems to be lacking behind in object avoidance. Stuff like the Narwhal Freo Z Ultra seems better at it.

I have been using the qrevo curv for about 250sqm of space, mostly or about 85% hardfloor without mopping. Its done well. For the remaining 15%, the bathroom tiles, entrance tiles, and kitchen tiles are mopped once or twice a day. It has done a solid job and the battery seems capable of charging quickly enough to handle the whole space.

It depends on you and how dirty your floors get. I couldn't live without mine, but I live with one cat and two Australian Shepherds and two young adults who may never leave the nest (🥴). Without the daily cleanup from the robot, my life would be unmanageable from the dog hair alone. I have the Qrevo Curv, and I love it. If you're single, have no pets, and tidy... then maybe you don't need one.

The Q Revo S is on sale currently for $549 vacuums, mops, and the base empties mops and dries. Pretty much the best you can get for the money.

There really aren't any mop only robots besides the antiquated Braavas which you shouldnt waste your money on. Better to sell your current robot (or use in basement or give to a friend) and upgrade to a Roborock Q Revo master/Curv/edge, Eufy S1, or Dreame L40 ultra (which is cheaper than X40 but performs better)

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

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

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

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 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.

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

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 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".

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!!

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

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?

The Q Revo has been perfection for us

Probably close to a year. Filtered tap water

Qrevo and qrevo pro are awesome!

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

I had the roborock qx revo and had to return it after 5 months (Costco)I keep getting lidar cleaning errors. The self emptying never worked well. My parent have the s2? Roborock and has been great even after 5 years (but there’s doesn’t do combo mopping and vacuuming). I’m not sure if I would buy a combo mopping and vacuuming robot next time.

I bought a new roborock qrevo with mop function last year from Costco and we used nightly (have a messy toddler) and the lidar stopped working after 6 months. Emptying the dirty mop wear container was also terrible as it smelled terrible! The auto empty would also jam regularly. My parents have an old roborock s3 I believe that’s 7-8 years old. It was one of the first ones with a mop function and they never use the mop function. There’s works great. So I’m not sure if the mop function really does work for longevity purposes.

To really get value out of a robotic vacuum the key is to not buy the cheapest or second cheapest option. Get a vacuum with radar or LiDAR with room mapping. I have a Roborock QRevo with the mop option and I really, really like it. I’m able to map rooms, even on different floors, control both vacuum and mopping levels, and easily fence off areas and objects including setting up custom cleaning routines for a room or multiple rooms. Whereas I also have the base model Roomba and it only vacuums and crashes about my house like a drunken fool. It has very limited radar sense and relies on bumpers to “feel” its way around. I’m not saying no to the Roomba brand only that a cheap base model of any brand has big drawbacks. You can often find really good deals for Roborock on Amazon. Just use camel camel camel to price watch and alert you.

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.

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.

I'd say you could do even less than u/thisisreadonly2 suggested. I've had my S1 Pro for a month now have done the bare minimum: rinsed off the dirty water tank filter once, rinsed the mop tray twice, and I just cleaned out the vacuum filter today. I've never cleaned out the dirty water tank or even felt the need to since it hasn't developed any nasty smells (the ozonated water really does work at sanitizing!). Same goes for the roller mop, I've looked at it a few times over the past few weeks and it also still looks brand new, so I've never felt the need to clean it myself. Compared to my Q Revo, this is proving to have far less maintenance needed and I honestly abuse this thing lol. This past weekend I had friends over and a few open cans of beer/white claw got knocked over. I put the S1 on the lowest suction (to prevent any liquid from getting sucked into the dustbin, worked great) and it cleaned up all of the spilled drinks perfectly with zero stickiness on the floors. I seriously love this thing.

I have a roborock qrevo vacuum mop. 2 kids and a dog and it works great never had any issues. I also have a sebo corded vacuum for deeper cleans but the robot vacuum helps keeping up

really? it’s been plug and play for me

ah i just made the routines in HA and just call from HA. i don’t use the app

i hear you - my POV, which i realize may not be strictly accurate is that if something can be configured to do complex automations (room cleaning etc) in 15-20 minutes in HA then that counts as plug and play :)

certainly wouldnt hurt! The roborock integration page is (unusually) helpful. With that said, i don'tchange mop intensity or vaccum power with my routines, but that should all be pretty easy. If it doesnt work, feel free to reach out maybe i can help!

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.

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/)

Roborock has a good implementation into HA which I've used the past year. Maybe the Q Revo will be something for you? Or a top model like the Sxx versions. I just switched to the eufy x10 pro omni and I'm bummed that there are no working solutions for HA for this model yet :(. I have to use another app like a noob.

Trust me you don’t need to drop $1800 on a robot vacuum. Any decent flagship Roborock will do, S8s or one of the higher end Q Revos. Saros is great but again you don’t really need them. Would avoid the other ones.

Absolutely love ours

I've been very happy with mine as well. I don't want any of the ones with a camera on it, so I'm happy with the Revo's lidar.

This is why I got a Q Revo. It has neither of these features.

We have a q revo and it’s great

No, not really. I do not recommend buying one. I've had a number of bots over the years, currently the original Q Revo is my main bot. Its works well, except for 1) edge mopping 2) cables dislodge the spinning mops. I've had an iRobot M6 since it was first released. Its more reliable, user friendly than the Vortex (and I don't like the M6 all that much either.)

Currently using a Dyson animal 3, and a roborock qx Revo. And an s7 down stairs. Those battery stick ones from Amazon crapped out too fast.

I have the QX revo bought from Costco. The ultra looks like a lot more suction, but it's not necessary for my floors. The software may be better , my only complaint about the QX revo is that if you say go clean the house it never empties the dust bin until the end. It's not programmable either. The Ultra may have that ability to program frequency of emptying the dust bin? But for that price difference it better do a lot more!

In my experience the obstacle avoidance is pretty acceptable, but you might want to consider the Q Revo S that’s on sale in Amazon? Supposedly it will replace the regular Q Revo, it’s only a 30 dollar difference with coupon, and it’s 7000 pa

Actually the obstacle avoidance is better, I recommend you research it, but the Q Revo is good.

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've done a lot of research these past few days and ended up buying a Q Revo (just arrived actually, about to set it up) - but that was mainly because it was on sale and a lot cheaper than the Dreame equivalent (which would be the L10s Ultra). They seem about the same. The Roborock having a better app experience and the Dreame being better at avoiding obstacles. Keep in mind they were both startups funded by Xiaomi really. But yeah, from what I've read people do complain a bit more about Dreame but in general they actually seem very solid. I did factor in that in my country Roborock is still a lot more common so getting bags and the like might be easier.

I have a Q Revo and run 5 days per week and mop 2 days per week. The waste water tank has a bit of sludge when I dump it into the toilet. I rinse it with fresh water and put it back into the base station. If I had my old dogs, I'd vacuum first and mop second on the same frequency. That way, most of the actual dirt goes into the bag, not into the waste water tank. Dumping the water and rinsing the tank is not a big deal. Floor is very clean. One thing I really appreciate is the removable tray in the base station where the bot rests when emptying the first, waste water and cleaning the mop pads. That has to be cleaned. Since it's removable it's easy to clean. If it wasn't removable I'd have to get on my hands and knees to clean

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.

/agree My Q Revo eats them. I just make sure to clear the floor before the task runs and it's all good. Actually got me into the habit of cleaning up on a regular basis rather than leaving a mess for a big monthly cleanup which I dreaded to do lol

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.

Thank you so much! I decided to go with Roborock QX Revo. It looks very similar? It has the rubber brush, mopping, and self-emptying you mentioned! I think it has a higher suction too. It was a bit expensive, but I got it from Costco which comes with a longer warranty plus accessories. Thank you!

Thank you! I decided to go with Roborock QX Revo. It looks very similar? Roborock seems like a good brand!

And this is for the Roborock QX revo. That’s the vacuum I ended up choosing :)

I love it! It makes a huge difference with the pet hair. My dog sheds a lot. It’s very user friendly (for floor layouts, app, and changing parts like the dust bag) and a massive improvement cleaning from my cheaper robot vacuum. This roborock was a bit expensive for me, but worth every penny! My floors have never been cleaner lol

I hope you love it too! Also, the self-emptying and floor mapping didn’t seem like a big deal to me, but now that I have it, I couldn’t go back. It is so efficient!

That’s the price I paid at Costco. When I was doing research, I found it cheaper on some other retailers, but the warranty isn’t as long (and with Costco I trust them). So I felt good about paying a little more for that peace of mind.

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'm loving the roborock qx revo from costco right now $499

Love my q revo. If money was no object I might spring for the s8 but I still don't feel like it adds much value tbh Just FYI ebay has crazy deals on official refurbished vacs rn. The q revo was $450 IIRC the s8 was around 740. There were a couple dreame vac/mops for sale as well.

Yes I have a Q Revo with the most basic obstacle avoidance and it helps quite a bit. It stays away from socks and dog toys, the larger most common things. I only wish it was better with cords, but the updated models are better with that

Yep. I dont consider Q revo to have obstacle avoidance. It’s a great robot and I wholeheartedly recommend it to people. But you should basically forget obstacle avoidance with the robot.

Are you saying you can use a $50 coupon at Costco? I just bought the Qrevo MaxV for $850 ($300 off) They’re also selling the QX Revo for $500 ($250 off)

I had the Ecovacs X1 Omni and it was a good mop/vacuum overall but the software drove me crazy to the point where I had to return it. I have a Roborock QX Revo now, and the software is way better. I haven't done a side by side to test which was better at cleaning but the Ecovacs either had a way larger battery or used less battery because I used to use it on my second floor (all carpet, except the two washrooms) and would do the 3 bedrooms with two passes and the rest only one pass and it still had battery left. Setting up the Roborock the same way with the same suction setting, I can't even finish the entire floor with one pass everywhere.

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.

Hi all, I’d like to know, is the Reactive AI (with rgb camera) actually much better than ReactiveTech? At the moment I have a Q Revo and it’s quite good, it is able to avoid most of the the objects in my house. But it struggles particularly with “low and flat“ objects. In particular this one, which is similar to a U shaped chair: https://preview.redd.it/suvutwjl6wne1.jpg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3f064284593fd32eeb31bffbcf7a05b6278d1d89 He tries to climb over, got stuck, then turns back and so on, a mess… Do you think Reactive AI robots like Curv, Edge, Slim or the new Saros could handle this? Can they recognize the obstacle (taking a photo) and maybe you can tell the robot to avoid it at all?

Q Revo has the spinning mop pads and lifts them automatically during carpet cleaning.

Ok, I'll just make a list, forgive me if I'm wrong. **QX Revo:** `-Only Reactive Tech obstacle avoidance(worst obstacle avoidance of the 3)` `-No mop that extends to the edge of walls` `-No sweeping brush that extends to the edge of walls` `-Cold water mop washing` `-No AI smartplan` `-No pet finding features` `-No sensor in dock to find out how dirty the mop is` `-No anti tangle main brush and side brush` `-Normal laser sensor that can't retract to allow the robot to go under low furniture` **Qrevo MaxV:** `-ReactiveAI obstacle avoidance(uses a camera. mediocre, but works better than reactive tech)` `-Mop that extends to the edge of walls` `-No sweeping brush that extends to the edge of walls` `-Hot water mop washing` `-AI smartplan` `-Pet finding features` `-Sensor in dock to tell how dirty mop is` `-No anti tangle main brush and side brush` `-Normal laser sensor that can't retract to allow the robot to go under low furniture` **QX Revo ULTRA:** `-ReactiveAI 3.0 obstacle avoidance(supposed to be good, best out of the 3 vacuums here)` `-Mop that extends to the edge of walls` `-Sweeping brush that extends to the edge of walls` `-Even hotter mop washing than Qrevo MaxV` `-AI smartplan` `-Pet finding features` `-Sensor in dock to tell how dirty mop is` `-Anti tangle main brush and side brush` `-Retractable laser sensor that lowers the height of the robot to 3.14 in to let the robot go under low furniture` TL;DR the QX Revo has the least features out of the 3, lacking hot water mop washing, edge extending mop pads, camera based obstacle avoidance, pet finding features and a dirty water sensor in the dock, however it still washes and dries the mop. The Qrevo MaxV adds all of these features that I listed above, however its obstacle avoidance is apparently middling. The QX Revo Ultra takes all of the features from the MaxV, but adds hotter mop washing, anti tangle brushes, and better obstacle avoidance and a retractable laser sensor to let the robot go under lower furniture. Sorry for this extremely long and boring list to read, hope it helps though

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.

I told everyone I know about my Q Revo I bought last year. “$600!? On a vacuum!?” It literally vacuums and mops every day while I’m at work. The dust piling up from my lazy ass not cleaning once a week is gone. The pockets of fur from my chihuahua is gone.

More than a vacuum without a dirty water tank, but really not that much. I can’t say I feel a noticeable difference in the time I spend on it compared to the Q Revo and J7 I had before. There are more parts, but the vacuum is designed quite well, so all remove/replace operations are easy. The house is mopped 3x a week and vacuumed 5x/week. This is what I do every weekend: - Empty and rinse the dock dirty water tank, fill the clean water tank, put both back. - Remove the vacuum from the dock. Take out and rinse the mop washing tray. - Take off the top cover. Take out dust bin, bang out the filter, rinse both and leave out to dry. - Take out the dirty water tank, remove the main filter and three small filter plugs, rinse all out and leave out to dry. Flip the vacuum upside down. - Take out the vacuum brush, remove hair from both ends, rinse and leave out to dry - Slide off the mop roller, rinse and leave out to dry - Remove side brushes, remove hair tangles, put back on - After a few hours of drying time, reassemble everything. I also plan to take out and clean the caster wheel once every couple of months, but haven’t gotten to that point yet. So far, these operations take me maybe 15 minutes once a week, probably less.

I got the Roborock QX Revo from Costco. It’s on sale now. I use the mop more than the vacuum actually. It can mop your kitchen in the dark after you’ve turned in for the night. I can walk around with bare feet that don’t get dirty!

IMO it never was terrible. Is pretty good at avoiding stuff, I was actually surprised.

I am testing the Q Revo Master and it got an above average score on the OA test (10 out of 12) compared to the Q Revo and Q Revo Max V (both 4). It seems to have similar hardware as the MaxV, updated firmware? Is it rolled out to all previous Q Revos if so?

+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.

Had the Q Revo from Costco and it constantly got clogged. To be fair, we have a long haired cat too. It started to leak both dirt and water. What I’ve learned is that anything combo, which the Q revo vacuum and mops, does a subpar job at both. Will probably try the shark robovac.

Unfortunately it still accumulates on the vacuum duct and I have to manually pull out the hair clog. I don’t know why it was leaking fluid the other day. I think I’ll just mop separately.

The other problem is removing hair that has become tangled in the roller. You can’t just remove the ends like Roomba.

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
