Roborock - S50

Vi kjøpte S50 eller noe sånn i 2019 for cirka 3000. Fungerer som bare pokker. Byttet en sensor i fjor, kostet 55kr. I dag ville jeg kjøpt Roborock Q5 Pro, koster cirka det samme. Men har støtt for flere etasjer og børste du ikke må krangle med når den skal rengjøres.

A little late for this but I would go with the V50. Any model can have problems. I haven't tried the curvx but I tried 3 regular curvs and had to send them back. They dragged the mops when going back to the base.  I haven't seen a lot of people mention that so maybe I was unlucky, 3 times in a row.  The vacuum performance wasn't great either. I always vacuum before mop and there would be lots of pet hair in the base after mopping.  I have the p50 and love it. Got it on sale for 799. I did have to send the first one back due to water pump issues, started in less than a week,  but the one I have now has been going 2 months with no problem. Hardly, if any hair in the base after mopping. And my dust bag was full the first month. We have 3 highly shedding dogs and the roborock qrevo master does well but evidently the p50 does better. The roborock bag wouldn't be full the first month like this.  And I have generic bags that work that are a lot less so it won't get so expensive  to change. I have had no front wheel problem at all. Every manufacture can have problems. But if you need to deal with the warranty every time I have emailed Mova with a question or when the water pump went bad, they got back to me the same day almost every time but always within 24hrs. And not during the middle of the night like Roborock then you have to wait until the next night to email you back. Roborock was never a problem with me for warranty work it's just the process takes a while due to the response email coming in the middle of the night. Sorry so long but hope this helps.

This must be something else, as I used to have this weekly for years on my 6 year old Roborock S50. Recently I got myself the Dreame L40S with the same duo brushes, and it's amazing 😍 NEVER has this problem anymore.

Our roborock s50 is 7ish years old if memory serves. Just over 1500 cleanups. Runa about every other day give or take. 45k m2 cleaned. Jist regular maintenance of main side brush, filters. 1 broken dirt tray, but that was due to me dropping it.

I also have the mopping Roborock and love it. We have 1 dog and 12 foster cats so daily sweeping and mopping is a necessity. It won’t save op money though I think it was $700. As long as the toys are picked up the only issue it occasionally has is with my really long hair getting wrapped around the rollers.

Same. My Roborock S50 from 2018 still going strong after 7 years.

I wish. The ones with LIDAR and particularly cameras are definitely smart _er_ but there is a tradeoff - they may get stuck less, but then they don't bother even trying to clean areas that look hard to them. The forest of chair and table legs under our kitchen table is a good example: The cheapo Eufy I bought for the MIL with no remote sensing gets stuck there every time. The Neato that normally lives upstairs that has LIDAR gets stuck occasionally but at least gives it a go. The combo mopping/vacuuming Roborock with both LIDAR and cameras that lives downstairs takes one look at the table area, decides it's too hard, and doesn't bother trying. So I have to manually clean it, or remember to pull out all the chairs. And it still gets stuck sometimes. I prefer the Neato behaviour. But it doesn't mop and Neato the company is essentially defunct.

Tl;dr - upgraded from Roborock S50 (2019) to Dreame L40 Ultra, blown away by the tech improvements. I’ve been researching robot vacuum cleaners for a while now and even had a detailed spreadsheet of all the options. I have a Roborock S50 from 2019 that still does a half decent job vacuuming however its age is showing (we affectionately call it the grandpa). We have hardwood mainly, and we were looking for the next vacuum to mop as well. Budget wasn’t a concern, so I initially considered the Saros 10r and S8 MaxV Ultra, or even waiting for the next gen Roborock with the rumored roller mopping. The L40 Ultra didn’t convince at $1200, there were simply too many better options out there. However, at $474, it suddenly looked very different on my spreadsheet, and had features that none in its price class had. Took the plunge and got it delivered today, and my word, this thing is incredible. It vacuums better than the S50, extendible arms are grabbing dirt from everywhere, the leave-behind-mop for vacuuming trick is awesome, avoids most obstacles, auto empties to the docks (what! lol), so quiet even in turbo mode. Mopping is stunning, I mean I’m staring at our floor speechless. Granted the Roborock S50 is from a different era, but what the actual heck - clean/dirty water tank, washes mop with hot water, dries it, auto dispensers detergent, has a swinging mop, lifts the side brush during mopping (!), is dead silent when mopping only. My floor is cleaner than it’s ever been.. If this thing lasts a few years and delivers like this consistently, it’ll be a monumental quality of life improvement. I’ve not paid attention to the robot vacuum tech trends the past few years, but my word, this feels like a generational futuristic leap of technology. My one tip for others looking - figure out what you need and don’t get distracted by other features/gimmicks. For example I was so tempted by the level jumping function even though I had fully flat hardwood (lol), or spent countless hours agonizing over AI obstacle avoidance feature (I have no pets.. why care about fecal avoidance?!), or hot mopping function (it literally cools down in the robot, why bother?!).

Can echo the other posters. My S50 was loud, so I had very low expectations. In “Quiet” mode, the L40 is shockingly quiet.. to the point where I was worried it’s actually working!

Hi, Had Roborocok S50 in the past with 2000 Pa, now have Roborock S10R (G30s Ultra China version). I am dissapoint. 20000 Pa is not better than 2000Pa. I thought maybe the problem what I got China version, and China version is not good compare to the one provide to western countries. But i see such problem noticed not only me, and not only for G30s Ultra, Saros 10R is observed same suction problem. It is really sad. I starting to think to skip to other brands. I see ECOVACS DEEBOT X9 PRO Omni can be really promising. If Roborock not stops to fake on numbers for marketing purpose - they will loose fans in near future! Me too.

If the price is a big issue - just look at Roboroc Curv 1st version or MAYBE Look At Dream L40, they are really good. You do not have to buy another Roborock. Dreame is also very good option. I am big Roborock fan, actually was - when had Roborock S50, now have Roborock saros 10R - not happy NOW, think I got faulty version.

I’ve got an old roborock s50 from 2017 that works fine, and my eufy s1 pro is over a year old. No issues.

The vacuum motor on mine is a bit whiny, but still works well.
