S6 MaxV

I have the Roborock S5 and S6 max totally bullet proof. Had to replace the wheels on the S5 as it got trapped under our kitchen units while they where getting replaced and it burnt its self out. Got replacements from Ali Express and its as good as new. Also had to replaced the mop bracket sensor again from Ali Express. They just keep going

I would be opting for something that has AI and can identify 💩 lol. S6 max is pretty solid but I know that there are a lot of upgrades available. Personally we have a Dyson G1 hard floor cleaner to do a proper clean as we feel that the mopping feature just does do a proper job. And top tip? Dont put the vacuums on when you are out and the dogs are inside as the Roborock could go over any mess that the dog might have left lol

I have the S6 MaxV and the Qrevo Edge. The difference between spinning mops like the Edge compared to the static pad that is just dragged along is huge. The dirt was just smeared around with the S6 MaxV, so after several years, when the Edge took over, I could see the floor getting cleaner for every pass, and the waste water was really dark. Also, I have some thresholds and carpets, and the S6 MaxV would get stuck more often than I liked. No problem with the Edge which can lift quite high. All in all, I could not be happier with that upgrade. No hair tangles either, with two cats and a regularly visiting Malamute with difficult hair. I see that the new ones like Narwal Flow may mop even better, but for me, the very increased complexity seems like a potential durability and maintenance problem. The spinning mops on the Edge are dead simple and should last a long time.

I've been using my roborock s6 maxv for 4 years. I saw another post recently where some people had more hours on theirs.

I emailed roborock about my s6 maxv Getting stuck in a certain place and they sent me a free strip that can block the path. 4 years later and it's still working ok. Soo, plus one for roborock.

I'm hijacking your post trying to get some help too because I'm in the same boat. But I've also been researching for a few months and I have some thoughts that might be helpful. I have 2 goldens and no carpet. I don't have any first hand experience with any of the newer vacuums, but here is where I am. I'm Strongly considering the narwal flow. Right now it's $1100. The reviews even for the older narwals which have the same brush design seem to highlight how it can handle hair. It even has a way to clean hair off the side brush which has been a problem for me. And the 3rd wheel is behind the main brush, which for the amount of fur you and I get should be helpful! The saros 10r also seems good. I'm fairly happy with my roborock s6 as far as build quality and reliability, but it can't keep up with the hair. Possibly the eufy e25 as well, but the super loud base station and some quality issues make me leery. I used to think I needed a roller or track mop, but just a dad thinks the spinny mops will be less maintenance so, now I don't know. 1. Narwal flow. Pre order deal sounds pretty good. The negative stuff I've seen so far is related to carpet performance and no detergent dispenser. Promised matter support is also a bonus especially if it's 1.4. 2. Roborock saros 10r (a little above budget but I'm sure there will be discounts soon) 3. Mova v50. this one might actually be the best, but I'm not sure about reliability and build quality. Claims it has some anti smell features. 4. Eufy e25 At the moment the roborock and the mova v50 are more than I'm willing to spend, but I'm sure that won't be the case for long. Edit. One think I wonder about is how well they empty mass amounts of hair. Perhaps a mova or dreame with the tricut brush would be even better.

I have been using the Roborock S6 MaxV for several years now. At the time I bought it, it was their best model. It is still working great now. I dont use the mop function though.

My next roborock will likely be a Qrevo Edge S5A. I've had a roborock S6 MaxV, a brief stint with a eufy Omni c10, and currently a roborock Q7 m5+. My S6 MaxV *had* mopping function, but I didn't really use it. I only stopped using it because I got a hankering for a self emptying vacuum base and pulled the trigger on the eufy. The eufy I recommend against. Their app is Far inferior to the roborock and their obstacle detection is so bad the it scratched up the main sensor area so badly that they gave me a full refund after having had it just less than a year. I did use the mop, didn't really care for it, though it was nice that it auto emptied and filled at the dock. I'm liking the Q7 M5+ a lot so far. We have three cats, a dog, amd a baby. Again, not using the mopping function on it. The auto empty base is nice and small since it doesn't do anything water related. The first time we ran it, it picked up a hex wrench I had dropped behind the couch. The reason I think the Qrevo Edge S5A (or its successor) will likely be my next robot is that it has a super high claimed suction power (22k kPa), which definitely makes a difference with pulling crap out of my rugs. My house is primarily hardwood and tile with short pile rugs in certain areas. It does have a mop on it and auto filling&emptying water, but I'm not certain I would use the mop because the mops with that mode of action really just spread stuff more than anything. The most effective mopping mode of action appears to be that of the switchbot S20. My 'dream' robot would be one that combined the suction of the Qrevo Edge S5A with the mop of the switchbot S20, with the base of the Saros 10 with refill&drainage (looks like the Saros 10 also actually has a high suction, so I guess the Saros 10 is *almost* my 'dream' robot)

I can only speak about our experiences, but both our previous and current Roborock (S6 MaxV and S8 Pro Ultra) have navigated our apartment flawlessy for a combined 5½ years. Not once got stuck or couldn't find their way back to the dock.

Our S6 MaxV couldn't clean our house on a single charge anymore, so we replaced it with the Qrevo Slim. It was the only option that wasn't to high to fit under our furniture.
