Roborock - Qrevo Plus

For mopping, ideally you will want spinning mop pads and the largest water tanks available (unless you're able to run plumbing). You will likely need to refill the clean water and empty the dirty water tanks daily if the court is regularly used. The Saros 10R has a large clean water tank in the dock but a small on-board tank (65mL vs 80-100mL on other Roborocks) so even though it will do the job, it will also need to dock and refill more often, so probably the least efficient solution with a ton of features you won't care about. The QRevo series is probably ideal. You probably won't care about having the best obstacle avoidance, so even a slightly older one with spinning mop pads will probably be more than enough. I'd probably buy 2 of the QRevo Plus or something similar and have it clean the court from both ends. But really, a consumer robot isn't really the best solution. You will definitely be running these robots to their limit every single day, and you will have a ton of consumable costs.

I also love our Roborock. We have the Qrevo Plus. I have it set to run in the main areas every day at 8am and it's great. It's not PERFECT, but with all hardwood floors, it absolutely keeps the dog hair and floor grit under control.

I have the Roborock Qrevo Plus, and it has been amazing! I have light colored floors and a black Dane and black Cocker. The robot runs every night and every morning we have clean floors. I have a 8 month old baby who is crawling so am also on the floor a lot and I’m always amazed by how spotless they are! Mapping was quick and painless, and I hardly ever have to intervene or rescue it. I also have a iRobot i3 and it’s a night and day difference. App is easy to use, and we have had it for just about a year and have had no problems. Refill clean water and dump dirty mop water once a week. Obstacle avoidance seems to work pretty well too, no incidents yet!

Although both models have a mop extend feature. Dreame has a better mop extend firmware than roborock. I think Dreame can also swing the extended mop, making it useful for under furniture like fridges where stains tend to accumulate or your cabinets. Although this feature wasn’t initially released with the L20 Ultra, I’ve seen users post about how the mop swing feature came to older models such as the L20 Ultra as well. The L20 Ultra will be smarter at keeping itself out of trouble compared to the Q Revo Plus as it has a RGB camera with a fill light and structured light to recognize and avoid objects when the Q Revo Plus only has structured light based avoidance. The L20 Ultra’s base station is better at helping the robot decide whether it needs to rewash its mops and go over a certain area again with its water turbidity sensor. If you want a set and forget detergent kit, only the Dreame L20 Ultra has this as a detergent cartridge. You can empty it and also add a detergent of your own choice. If you’re in the US, you could also look at Dreame’s certified refurbished models on their official eBay store. They do come with 2 years of warranty from either Dreame or Allstate (I’ve seen complaints of Allstate’s warranty being difficult to use compared to dreame’s). I also have seen people complain about the inconsistent quality of the refurbished goods but thankfully you’re covered under warranty. However, the price is unbeatable, the X40 Ultra is 799 USD.

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.

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.

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

thank you sir! for the honest detailed review. I have ordered both X10 Pro Omni and Roborock Qrevo Plus 2 days ago for very similar price: $550 and $520. I was told that Eufy X10 is not reliable in my deep research. I think I will test both of these Robos and return the Eufy.

hi i actually canceled Qrevo Plus on Amazon on Sunday night. because 1). setting up a robot along with testing through actual cleaning is VERY TIME CONSUMING, i simplely dont have time to set up and test a new robot, along with have to packing up one of them for returning. 2). so far i am actually very pleased with X10. Of course I am only 3 days into having this thing, so I can't speak for long term. But good thing is that Amazon's holiday return period is extremely long, I believe the last day of return is Jan 31, 2025, so I will have plenty of time to test the X10. Hopefully this thing keeps up its performance and I don't have to return it. I am too lazy to spend time shopping, along with setting up a new robot, making a cleaning schedule all over again, that is a whole weekend of work!

I can at least help with some of the Qrevo’s based on my own research I’ve been doing for this sale. Like you, I was replacing an older Roborock and didn’t want to go too high but still wanted some nice features. I ended up focusing on the Qrevo S, Qrevo Plus, and Qrevo Pro. They all are very similar, same 7000 pa suction, same 10mm mop pad lift, same object avoidance tech (which tbh isn’t that great from the reviews I’ve seen but I usually pick objects up that could get caught so it doesn’t bother me), mostly same dock capability with auto empty/mop pad washing and drying. The differences are with the mopping and they are minor but it depends how much you value the features that would be included. Qrevo S: The base model, everything as described as above Qrevo Plus: adds the flexible mop arm that offers better edge cleaning Qrevo Pro: adds the flexible mop arm AND has hot water mop pad washing and intelligent dirt detection that can sense when the mop pads are dirtier than normal and will wash them extra If it was based solely on just sale price, I would have gotten the Plus for myself. I value having the flexible mop arm to get the most coverage possible. But I was able to get a Pro for an even better deal through Target with coupons so that’s the one I went with. I’ve seen that the hot water wash and intelligent dirt detection are a little gimmicky, but ultimately it was primarily about the mop arm for me and I chose the Pro because I could get it for a better price. Hope this helps!

Roborock is very fast on navigation and battery charging but make sure you turn obstacle avoidance to maximum since it tries to clean hard to reach areas and bumps a lot. I have Roborock q revo plus and when it was 1 month old it bumper looks like it's been racing for about a year lol.

I have Xiaomi x20+. I have no problems with it. Got it for 365 💶. Just a regular vacuum who can self empty and who can wash itself. Obstacle avoidance is fine, but it has no side sensor. I turned obstacle avoidance to minimum to improve cleaning efficiency. I also ordered Roborock qrevo Plus for 456 💶. Roborock has more advanced obstacle avoidance, more configuration and cleaning settings in software, mop who can extend to get corners I've previously owned Roborock and by cleaning I always liked it better. I like it's navigation better.

Xiaomi X20 Pro(can't find any serious review about it) or Roborock Q Revo S(you can find a lot of reviews about it). In my country X20 Pro is 30 EUR less than Roborock, so I'll take Roborock. I'd recommend to check Roborock Q Revo Plus. It has extendable mop for corner moping. Roborock Q Revo Plus is almost same as Q Revo S, only difference is extendable mop. I can't unfortunately recommend you Dreame. Too much complaints about it. Check app store reviews. Even when Dreame gets a new update it's not advised to install it since it will break something in your robot. There was posts where users advised not to install new updates since new update broke carpet navigation system. Dreame is better in obstacle avoidance, better in functions you get for money but in software quality it's not good..

Did my due diligence on these robots for a few weeks before buying mine during Black Friday. I ended up getting the Roborock Q Revo Plus and the investment was incredibly worth it. Yes some of the more expensive ones can do more but it does everything we need to and Ive had 0 issues thus far. The app is also pretty user friendly and hasn’t given me issues. Maintaining him has been super simple which comes with any robo vac. All depends on your budget and how much you are willing to spend but I recommend Roborock first from my experience but would also suggest Dreame. Hope this helps!

We got a q revo plus shortly after it came out and love it. Home assistant integration is a little funky to figure out, like how to do specific rooms and stuff, but it works fine

Roborock Q Revo series, I recommend the Plus model or better. Auto detects carpet and has different settings for it. One setting I like is when telling it to mop and vacuum an area, you can have it vacuum the carpeted areas before even wetting the mop pads. So it will vacuum just the carpet then return to the dock, wet the mop pads, then vacuum & mop the hard flooring.

I have 2 RoboRock Qrevo Plus and love them, I seriously doubt they are BIFL tho.

So based on your needs roborock.qrevo series might be a good fit. I have a Qrevo and has auto empty dock and great with.pet hair due to anti tangle feature Also I have a baby at home and Roborock parts are easy to get so sometimes rather than cleaning them out I just replace them when I don't have time and that might be helpful for the household as you can replace them when you are there and it reduces maintenance Another option with no mop is Eufy , the parts are ok to find and good for pet hair So here are some or the recommendations: 1) https://amzn.to/4dDP1a1 Qrevo series; great for hair. Coat 599 2) https://amzn.to/4dNIDNp Roborock qrevo plus: 599 3) https://amzn.to/4dEAYRA Eufy 60; this is a good starting point if you want to test and dont need a mop. May need some more maintenance but overall good and worth the cost To your point of silent, auto empty docks are not that silent in general so I suggest you check some videos to gauge the noise and if it's acceptable for you. There are different vaccum settings which reduces noise but that's about it, auto empty docks do make noise a little though

press the edit button on the map and you'll be able to define the cleaning order. I did it with a Qrevo Plus.

I have 2 big dogs with long thick fur (70 & 110 lbs), and the Roborock Qrevo Plus has been awesome. No more embarrassing tumbleweeds the day after I vacuum.

As a S8 MaxV Ultra owner, I currently got another Qrevo QX from costco and it's doing a great job! One of the best deals out there.

I do replace the rollers as needed, I'm used to iRobot low quality where they had to be replaced frequently, this is not the case with Roborock as these hold even when something is stuck inside and they spin against it. I do open the bottom cover once every few months and vaccum there to all debrees that gets inside the wheel chember and bumper. I do have temporary Qrevo QX which is the costco variation for the base Qrevo, and TBH, it's working very well on hard floors, didn't tested it upstairs yet.

Get the Roborock QR 798 or Q10 PF/VF or its + variant if you want an automatic empty station included. I'm in Southeast Asia, too! I have had a Q7 TF (similar to Q10 without a vibrating mop and obstacle avoidance) for three weeks, and I love it. I mainly use it to clean hard floors and low-pile rugs. - Q10 has two versions PF (lifting mop) and VF (vibrating mop similar to S8 Max and Saros 10). The + variants included the auto-empty station. - QR 798 is similar to QRevo S but slightly cheaper at least in my country 🇮🇩 - Xiaomi X20+ quite similar to Dreame L10 series and cheaper than QR 798 and L10 (in 🇮🇩). It already has obstacle avoidance features, but unlike Roborock Q7TF and Q10 PF/VF, it doesn't have an anti-hair tangle feature. - Xiaomi X 20 Max - Dreame L10s Ultra gen 2 All these robots use structured light sensors for obstacle avoidance. Unlike the AI camera sensor, it performs less than the latter. Structured light performs worse in detecting very small objects or objects on a high pile and carpet with complex patterns.

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. 

I have a Qrevo (not the master, just one of the OGs I think) and I haven’t really had a problem. I’ve had it a year, I run it daily, and I can count on one hand the number of times it’s eaten cat toys. The only consistent issue I have with it is that I have a blanket with fringe and if the fringe hangs too far off the couch onto the floor the Qrevo will get tangled in that. But that’s genuinely the only issue I’ve had with obstacles.  I also have a Q8 Max upstairs on carpet and that sumbitch craves toy mice. Nothing can sate its bottomless appetite for cat toys. Idk if it’s the carpet or the model but it’s a consistent issue. (Still better the roomba I had up there before tho.) The path finding on the Q8 is great, but it refuses to avoid the cat toys. 

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!

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

I have a robo vacuum(roborock qvero) which runs 2 times a week. Additionally I have a light weight cordless vacuum to cover delta between those days. It stays pretty clean with above effort.

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 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'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.

We have a q revo and it’s great

I have a Q Revo and it does an ok job but yeah it's not up to the level of a mop, or even a hard floor cleaner. And these things are also ridiculously expensive to buy the latest and greatest. It does a fine job running daily to keep the floors clean, cleaner than just a vacuum. But I have a very drooly dog that leaves spots on the floor and it won't scrub those up, I have to break out a floor cleaner for that. It does better than my old roomba though, it almost never gets caught on or tangled in anything and mostly drives around any obstacles fine. Was it worth it? Probably not for the price I paid. Right now though you can get a Q Revo for $479 which I think would be worth it. So I maybe might advise buying the last gen at a discount rather than the latest and greatest and still plan on having to manually clean from time to time. Really depends on your needs of course, if you are a clean person living alone then you might rarely have spots that the robot won't get.

I bought the Dreame X40 Ultra. Same features, but cheaper. I also own a Q Revo and a Dreame L10S Ultra. The Q Revo has had a lot of issues in the year I've owned it. The L10S is still going strong, so the X40 was the obvious choice for me.

/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 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 :)

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.

Xiaomi X10+ / Dreame L10Ultra is great, it has everything. Dreame L10 Prime is probably the cheapest I have used, less features and for mopping it was OK. Roborock revos are great but usually costly. Roidmi Eva was pretty dumb robot avoid that.

TLDR: this sounds like a giant pain and very inconvenient, but you could do it. Most brands on technically support 1 home. But roborocks support up to 4 floors, I think so you could have each house be a different floor. Honestly, before committing to driving your vacuum all around try just having one to share between your floors. These things work best as “set it and forget it”. I ended up getting a refurb Q5 for my basement because over time it was less hassle than remembering to move my Q Revo from the first floor to the basement to run it. Additionally, you will vacuum more if you just set a schedule and have it run automatically.

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.

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.

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.

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

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
