"i have a roborock s7 max ultra and its fantastic, even with this bloody awful thick pile carpet i cant wait to rip out, im not a tidy person terribly and i have a cat who sheds about 2 cats worth a week and regularly knocks bits of his dry food all over the place. the poor little bugger works hard but it does a fantastic job, ive been nothing but impressed"
"After walking them in rainy or muddy weather, having a robo mop take care of the mess is a real help. ... on our hardfloors, the robos are an excellent support and really do lighten the workload ... the convenienve of not needing to mop the house after you worked for a full day is worth it to us. ... So, 30 minutes for 7 days a week comes down to 3.5 hours of mopping saved. ... So if you want your floors to be somewhat halfway clean, you need to mop them daily (at least once). So yes, for us, the mopping robot makes a lot of sense and is a real help."
"it's absolutely mint ... I have a three bedroom house and it punishes the dirt and grime."

"The self emptying base station is a must for dog owners"
"best vacuuming particularly if you pair it with an auto empty dock"
"The second one I got was self emptying so it can continue all by itself and I really appreciate it. I only have to empty the main basin once a week and that's it. Super convenient"

"We've had it three years now and no real issues other than, as I mentioned, normal maintenance."
"We have four roborock S7’s running in our 5,000 sqft office. ... Bought them since they first came out years ago. ... They run every day. ... Only last year did we replace the battery for all 4. ... Other than that, no issue at all, rock solid, very pleased that we also have them for our homes too."
"My Roborock S7 does about 2,000 sqft twice a week since 2021, and it's still going strong"

"in the app it will show you a layout of your home after it runs once which you can separate into rooms. I like this feature as I can schedule my kitchen to run daily and the rest of the house twice a week."
"The Roborock app works quite well and I find it easy to set up no go zones."
"I've got really good integration with HA. ... I have Node Red flows that have it clean specific rooms on voice command or schedule ... Node Red intelligently chooses times to empty the bin when nobody is in the room. ... Node Red turns the house AC fan on for a bit when the vacuum empties as well, to clear out the smell."

"the robot has no obstacle avoidance ... In terms of obstacles, that‘s pretty much the main reason why I added the 10R to my other floor where my cat and his toys are, it has great obstacle avoidance."
"If I leave them, they'll get chewed, tangled up.. it'll take robo 5x the amount of time to navigate around crap and by the time it cleans up some rooms it'll run out of battery."
"It fails to detect some toys like cords, knots and stuff like that. It eventually finished obstructing either the main brush or the small lateral one."

"Long hair, in particular, seems to be a huge issue – it constantly wraps around the main brush and even the small front wheel. ... At this point, I feel like I’m putting more effort into maintaining the robot than I would if I just vacuumed manually. ... I’m seriously questioning if the robot is still worth it, considering how much time I spend cleaning it. ... I think the hair will remain a problem, but it will probably require a lot less maintenance."
"My wife has super long hair which always annoys me - gets stuck on the regular vacuums brush and the roborock s7 (axles, not on the rollers)."
"I have hair just above the shoulders and it would get very stuck on my roborock s7."

"It will pick up much more dust, dirt, hair, cat litter and other debris than the S7. ... It performs very similarly to the S7, and has a very similar vacuuming module with the upgraded rollers that reduce hair tangling. The S8 just picks up far more dust, dirt and hair than the Saros 10R. As a vacuum cleaner only, the Saros 10R does a fairly average job."
"Having two dogs I would go on record saying that the S7 does a less worse job than the S8 on short pile carpets. ... But still to get it somewhat okayish clean, I use a normal vacuum twice a week"
"vacuum performance on carpet isn't great ... I end up going over it with a dyson"

"My S7 basically vacuums up the chunks and then mops the liquids. ... The biggest issue for me is that the moist chunks gum up the vac tray in the dock and I have to clean it regularly. ... The robot scoops up wet barf chunks that get in the dust bin and when the dock empties the dust bin the wet chunks stick to the dock and when they dry it’s like concrete since they mix with cat hair and dust that gets swept up. ... I have to unscrew the dust bin emptying chute and clean it in the sink and sometimes need a screwdriver to scrape the stuff off."
"What I don't like is the mechanism in the dock to wash the mops. It is complicated and requires too much maintenance. Without good, frequent maintenance, the S8's mop cleaning mechanism will fill up with mud, hair and debris and can clog. The same is true for the mechanism for washing the mops in the S7's dock."
"Tyhjennys telakka olisi ihan turha kapistus tälle, koska karvaa niin paljon joka välissä et puhdistettava kumminkin."

"my roborock s7 is starting to feel aged with no water tank in the dock."
"I wish I had auto refill/empty so I could mop automatically ... right now I just check the fluids before/during most mops"
"It's also important to remove the pad and run it through the clothes washer every few weeks. It tends to get matted after awhile."
This is what we have. I love it.
r/homeowners • What's the best Robot Vacuum value for money on the market rn? ->my Roborock s7 vmax is 3 years old at this point so im considering the saros 10R or Ecovacs X9 Pro Omni. Leaning towards the 10R but waiting to see what kinda deals are out there
r/RobotVacuums • Anyone Already Planning a Prime Day Upgrade? ->I've been seeing more and more posts like this and didn't bither to unbox my saros 10r I got on prime day. Ended up ordering a mova V50 ultra complete. If we don't like that I'll send em both back and wait for black Friday and keep on trucking with my s7 max ultra
r/Roborock • Not impressed the Saros 10R so I'm going to try the Saros 10. For $1300, it shouldn't be worse at vacuuming than my S8+. I've heard the 10 is better in this regard so hoping that's the case. It's still on sale so I'm going to give it a go and return the 10R back to Amazon. ->Bei eBay findest du teilweise Händler welche B-Ware günstig verkaufen. Hatte einen S7 Max Ultra mit Absaug- und Wasser Station für 360 Euro anstatt 700 Euro. Das Teil war so gut wie neu.
r/Ratschlag • Lohnt sich ein günstiger Roboter-Staubsauger oder sollte ich mehr investieren? ->Is this a IKEA carpet? I think i have the same and my old S7 max Ultra had no problems with it. My new Eufy S1 also has no problems with it. The new Roborocks with lifting wheels would be best option for high pile carpets.
r/RobotVacuums • Ist this carpet an issue for modern robot vacuums? ->We are extraordinarily happy with our Roborock S7 Max Ultra. Vacuums and mops, auto-empties the vacuum bag, auto-washes the mop. Everything about it is great and the app is super easy to use and setup. Easily avoids shoes, toys, dog mess or anything else you may have left on the floor. No prep work it just does it's thing. We paid like $1,200 for it several years back but it's [on sale for $649 right now](https://www.amazon.com/roborock-Max-Ultra-Self-Emptying-Self-Refilling/dp/B0BR5D59MF), if you can swing the extra $50 it's very well worth it.
r/homeowners • What's the best Robot Vacuum value for money on the market rn? ->Every vacuum, robot or otherwise, is going to require maintenance occasionally such as replacing belts, cleaning the brush, etc. That goes for the "self-cleaning" models as well. Hair builds up in the rollers. Grime and hair builds up in the cleaning mechanism. All that said, we are VERY happy with our [Roborock S7 Max Ultra](https://www.amazon.com/roborock-Max-Ultra-Self-Emptying-Self-Refilling/dp/B0BR5D59MF) and it's on sale right now for crazy cheap. Vacuums and mops, self-empties, self-cleans the mop pad, hardly ever gets stuck, has object recognition to avoid things like dog poo, shoes, cords, etc. We've had it three years now and no real issues other than, as I mentioned, normal maintenance.
r/BuyItForLife • Self-cleaning robot vacuum BIFL? ->For a fully carpeted 1,000 sq ft apartment, check out the [Roborock S7 ](https://www.amazon.com/roborock-Max-Ultra-Self-Emptying-Self-Refilling/dp/B0BR5D59MF/ref=sr_1_3?dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.0LKVxfDRUH8T8ZN3GflnS6QVJ6AkC8tQSUh7raSa41QxIZiK8IDzzGV7e0_L6fIdVc6KTTEaw9hurxr5rPP1Yum6ZDc-MGSTIEdEFcaxFbBBMyDQJECybqfpN4E3177aIn4gF5Mzuk9McbMhzxFN1zbnZ_QWzmBQzvAukLLdqEChDHI01ptXtNIPMXVgknTrH9aUDPKKtmg0dBYNCYnXWT0UK67VwrfuxsMu1gvK0iY.3xM3pH8CBYQa_jBd86KWWXKyel4I0we6k1oemTgzBn4&dib_tag=se&hvadid=570529981081&hvdev=c&hvexpln=0&hvlocphy=9012073&hvnetw=g&hvocijid=3362728545910206647--&hvqmt=b&hvrand=3362728545910206647&hvtargid=kwd-1237667868693&hydadcr=16291_13413309&keywords=roborock+s7+robot&mcid=58a64fa67aa532a9a76d6a1d38b2ffa7&qid=1761753719&sr=8-3)which is also a solid choice. It has strong suction that adjusts automatically for carpets, handles pet hair well, and navigates efficiently in a multi-room setup. It’ll do a good job keeping carpets clean without you having to constantly intervene, and it’s a big step up from the Eufy E25.
r/RobotVacuums • Robo vac for carpet apartment ->If you have the money go for it. But I'm happy with my 200€ used S7 max ultra Edit: I mean I'm not fully happy.but if it works it works. My point is that new devices are overpriced and made for people with such an income
r/Roborock • Should I drop $1800 on a robot vacuum or go cheaper? ->s7 Max Ultra here and very happy with it. We're all on one level which makes life a bit easier. It's not cheap but with a cat and a baby the ability to have a daily vacuum and mop routine without doing it ourselves is well worth it!
r/homeassistant • What's the best robot vacuum and mop IYO? Is it really worth its expensive price tag you paid? ->I need to replace my S7 Max UltraV w/e it’s called. Main requirement for me is for it to be plumbed in. I’ve been eyeing the X50.
r/RobotVacuums • Which one to buy with unlimited budget? ->I personally can heavily recommend Xiaomi. Idk how exactly the circumstances are, but Xiaomi and Roborock make the same vacuumrobots with Roborock just doing the "premium line". But you will get 90% of what the Roborock does, but mutliple times cheaper. Just compare the Xiaomi X20+ with the Roborock S7 Max Ultra and their prices when they released... idk was like 500€ vs 1800€. Our old Ecovacs constantly rotated its map and thus was completely useless.
