Roborock - Qrevo Slim

"I'd say it does about 95% of the job I could do by hand, I just don't have to do it anymore."

"I have a wool rug in my living room that sheds like a pack of german shepherds. With my S7, I still had to manually vacuum with my Dyson in order to remove both its shedding and dirt. The QRevo Slim however really does good work on carpets and rugs. Post a run with the Slim, my Dyson doesn’t pick up much debris or hair from the rug. The slide out front arm has definitely made a difference around deep corners in my home. I had to manually clean these with a handheld vacuum before."

"Just out of curiosity, I ran my old S7 in a specific area for a vacuum and mop cycle. I then followed it with a cycle on the QRevo Slim. It still managed to show up as dark brown water after the mop cycle! This was an eye opener as it meant that the scrubbing ability of the rotating mop heads made a difference on my hard wood floors. It even managed to scuff out certain markings my kid made with a marker on the floor. The slide out mop arm makes a difference around the entry way of my house (near the front door) and near the backyard entrance, for sure."

"Easy cleaning and maintenance, self emptying and self cleaning mop pads."

"The Dock is arguably the best thing about having a robot vacuum – auto empty, mop cleaning and drying and the ability to refill and store dirty water for a week or two means I rarely have to touch my vacuum (which is a big win for me)."

"vacuums, mops, and the base empties mops and dries."

"This was a game changer for me. Each night before I ran the S7, I had to manually move and rearrange items on the floor so it didn’t get stuck. With a kid and a dog, it’s easy to have toys under the rug, spoons in random places on the floor etc. My S7 would always get stuck on those and fire away an SOS in the app and I’d have to get outta bed and reset the robot clean cycle. The Slim has made me truly appreciate the *set it and forget it* style I prefer. Yes, I still do move/check for randoms but it doesn’t get stuck up on the stuff I’d miss. 3/4 score in my ultra scientific yet real world test! It even manages to dodge when my dog is sitting on the rug and shows a ‘Pet’ notification in the app!"

Nudged the ball but didn't get stuck on it like my S7 did"

"it did really well navigating and recognizing objects to avoid. ... I don't know, seemed great to me."

"It hasn't gotten itself caught on any cords, and it has been able to go under furniture and in between dining chairs and stools like a champ without running into anything. ... It's leaps and bounds better than the Shark was with avoidance"

"At least the Qrevo moves the objects and cleans under their foot print….my wife would be up my ribs if I just vacuumed around everything! 🤣"

"The slim itself is pretty quiet when in Balanced mode. When it does bump up the power on the rug in my Living Room, it is still quieter than my old S7 in Max mode. I could NOT watch TV in my living room when running the S7 on vacuum/mop balanced mode. I can however do this with the Slim. It also manages to go under my kitchen cabinets which my S7 never could, due to the LIDAR turret."

"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 ... 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 :) ... The roborock integration page is (unusually) helpful."

"My favorite automation so far: Cat uses the litter robot. After the litter robot flushes, wait a few minutes then send the Qrevo Slim out to vacuum up just the area around the litterbot to pick up any stray litter the kitties tracked out."

"The Slim allows me to set exactly such routines where it would first tackle those two areas – empty and clean itself – and then continue on with cleaning the rest without any manual intervention from me whatsoever!"
