Roborock - Qrevo Pro

I can't imagine not having self empty. You will absolutely love that feature. If you're sure you don't need a mop (I didn't think I needed one, but I really like it and I don't even have kids or dogs), I would look at the Roborock Q5+ duoroller or similar. I highly recommend getting a robot with lidar navigation. it works so much better than older bump and turn systems. iRobot kinda sucks these days from what I understand. You can definitely have a robot vac run in a different room while you're cleaning elsewhere. That said I think the best way to use a robot vacuum is to set it on a schedule. I have a robot on each of the two floors of my house. I have our fancier Qrevo Pro vacuum/mop the kitchen everyday and do the rest of the floor twice a week. Downstairs I have a Roborock Q7+ that vacuums the back entry way everyday and the rest of the floor twice a week

I like both of the robots, but the Qrevo Pro is more impressive and I like the mopping feature (the q7 has a mop too, but it's pretty bad-- like lightly running a wet Swiffer around). It does a much better job than I expected it to. No robot vacuum is really suited to a huge mess and they dont replace the need to pull out a real vacuum or mop once in awhile. But on the day to day they pick up a surprising amount of dust and debris

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.

I have the Q Revo Pro and it does an incredible job

Qrevo pro on the 25th.

$599

Yes, I just purchased it with 10% additional discount

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 have it. I like it. It’s also my first Roborock though. Can get a bit loud when mopping/vacuuming. Doesn’t bother me though. It’s a bit loud when it goes thru tile vertical floors. Because of the way the shape is( when it drives horizontal) this gets fixed when you change the settings in the app. (But still a bit loud) Other than that, dudes running daily. 2 times a day.

I have had the Q Revo Pro for a few days. It is my first robot vacuum. It is amazing. My first floor is mainly tile or vinyl flooring. My house looks clean all the time now. I have 3 big dogs who just ignore the robot. When I vacuum or sweep, my dogs will come "out of the woodwork" just to sit in front of me. I highly recommend the device just on this point alone. The mapping was a little overwhelming at first but I mastered it and it easily will clean the house while I am off doing something else. The noise is not bad at all. I can work in my office while it is cleaning the floor which surprised me. I will never live without a robot vacuum after this. What the heck was I waiting for??? I can highly recommend the Roborock Q Revo Pro.

I got the Pro. Awesome so far. extended mop works well against the wall and around furniture legs and such. I would recommend.

I would still recommend. I run it 5x a week and haven't had any issues with it. Easy to maintain just need to clean the tray weekly (pops out easy) and fill and empty the water tanks. You do need to be mindful of soft objects that can get tangled under the bot like small sock or cable so I do a quick scope around the house before I leave

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.

Been using roborocks for a few years and they are amazing! Far better than roombas. We now have the qrevo pro and it's a game changer with the refillable tanks. We are planning to eventually get the one that you can run a water line and drain to. Check out vacuum wars on YouTube. They have very good tests and comparisons between brands.

I have the Qrevo Master as well and love it, but that’s pushing her budget (even at its lowest price it was $1100 before taxes). Look into the Qrevo Pro, which is $800 on Amazon after applying a $200 coupon. The Pro gets her an extending mop pad to better clean edges, a better dock, and a little more suction compared to the regular Qrevo. Id say don’t go for the regular Qrevo though, if not the Master or the Pro, get the Qrevo S. It has slightly better specs and is a littler cheaper (Roborocks lineup is super confusing). There’s some debate over the rotating mops being better than the vibrating sonic mops, but I think most people like the rotating style better.

Qrevo Pro is the sweet spot.

Nah, the MaxV actually appeared before the Pro which was launched few months later. We can't actually say older or newer, since the lineup just has different models with varying features, but they were not launched at the same time. From entry to top of the line in ascending order: Qrevo, Qrevo S, Qrevo Pro, Qrevo MaxV, Qrevo Master. Sometimes the pricing don't exactly reflect that, and some variants are not available in ervery country. It depends on local market. But the higher model has everything the lower has, plus some extra features. Flexi mop arm and hot water washing is from Pro upwards, which I consider useful for edge cleaning and better cleaning efficiency. Camera and voice assist is from MaxV upwards, which I consider gadgets that don't make the floor cleaner.

Jack Russell's are short haired? I wouldn't imagine hair tangling would be a big issue. What does "Matter Enabled" mean? >decision paralysis!! So real! 😁I hears yah. With the size of your house and tiled area, plus dogs :) I'd think mopping would be your biggest issue. I have a 100m2 house - polished wood floors, minimal carpets and my Q Revo (basic) has been a god send, floors have never looked better. I have a medium poodle/kelpie cross and he tracks in so much dirt!

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!!

We just got the Roborock Qrevo Pro during the Amazon sale. There are plenty of $1000+ models but I fell down a rabbit hole doing research, and the Qrevo Pro matched everything I wanted without having too many bells and whistles … and it was only $500, so I could get one for upstairs and one for downstairs. We’ve had them a few weeks and already love them. And we’ve been running them everyday with two cats and a GSD, with no dog hair entanglement issues.

Qrevo Pro would be the highest tier without having a camera. I received one yesterday and so far, very impressed.

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 did the same; I returned the Qrevo and got the Qrevo Pro instead. Have you noticed that the Pro takes more time to clean and tends to take extra time, especially around doors and other items?

I have the pro and love it. Not happy paying extra for the camera on the maxv. The only issue i have is with cables. Other than that it does a good job avoiding stuff. Very happy!

I love my Roborock Q Revo Pro for our two pitbulls hair and mopping footprints on rainy days. Right now there's $200 off on Amazon.

We just got the Q Revo Pro and have absolutely loved it. I have more confidence in spinning mops than a vibrating microfiber, personally. The Pro allows one of the mop pads to swing outward so it doesn’t miss anything, nice touch. Also much cheaper than the S8 lineup. Highly recommend!

Using a qrevo pro, but get one with mop rollers that squeegee out the moisture. Roborocks software is good.

I got the QrevoPro from Target on a deal day this week--for reference, $400 off the list price of $999. Nice set of features without going to the $1500 range. So far I like it, though I'm upgrading from possibly the dumbest, blindest robovac on the planet. It's nice to not have go searching for it.

only first photo is loading for me, but looks like a regular rough concrete basement flooring. My q revo pro will vac and mop that just fine. These robots will climb over horizontal char legs and raised floor ledges without issues (just some banging noise).

Qrevo pro is a very good bang for ur buck. I got mine for $600 BNIB off FB marketplace, and it’s usually on sale at target for near that price as well

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.

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.

I understand that you might wonder if it’s worth it. I felt the same way but couldn’t be happier with my Roborock Q Revo Pro. I am able to clean the kitchen and bathroom floors daily. We have a Golden Retriever and not seeing the fluffs of hair that seem to show up like magic on our hard floors (laminate and tile) is so worth it. I anticipate having to get out the mop occasionally to get to those places the Roborock doesn’t but that is so much better than washing by hand. I just ordered a second one (not as fancy) for our upstairs bedroom and bath. Roborock has a 30 day return policy, as well if you don’t like it.

We have a self-emptying Roborock that vacuums soft surfaces and mops hard surfaces. We love it sooooo much. I can’t imagine the state our floors would be in without it 🫣

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

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

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

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

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

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

App calls it just Q Revo so I assume normal?

Nope,  nothing changed.

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

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

I have a Roborock self emptying one now and mostly got that because it could vacuum and mop. Before I had a neato bot vac and dir just vacuuming the neato is far superior. That did a way better job of throughly heavy duty vacuuming, when I had that vacuum I had 3 German shepherds and a black lab so I definitely needed a ton of suction and power that didn’t clog, get tangled etc. but now I live in the north and with snow and ice and mud I needed mopping too. I also now only have one German shepherd, my other dogs don’t shed as much. But I also have a pot belly pig that always brings in mud. So the Roborock works great for that but for straight vacuum and suction power the neato is better.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Q Revo has been perfection for us

Probably close to a year. Filtered tap water

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

Not so plug and play then

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

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

I'm on my 4th Roborock The S4 Max. Q5 Pro, Q8 Max and Qrevo Pro which all have lidar navigation and none has ever failed. I watch these forums closely and have notg seen anybody complaining about lidar failure. The top cover of the lidar navigation is actually a button that gets pressed down if a vacuum tries going under someplace where it won't fit such as a couch. Narwal is fairly new to the scene and I have not used their vacuums. I know one thing that I don't like about them is the vacuums don't have on board water tank so if you want to take it to a different floor to mop all you have is the moisture that is on the mop, no tank to replenish the water.

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

Qrevo and qrevo pro are awesome!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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