"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."
"Mine current us at 1903 hours and 94700 square meters …"
"I purchased a Roborock S7 and the family liked it so much that I bought a S7 MaxV the following Black Friday. ... We’ve owned them for a few years now, and if they died tomorrow, I’d go out and buy whatever their top-of-the-line model is."

"Having a vacuum and a mop attachment is an absolute must if you have hard floors imo."
"I have 3 parrots so the floor ALWAYS has something on it. Bird poo, food, small chunks of wood, doesn't matter robots got it covered."
"Highly recommend the mopping one though if you have hard floors. ... Just set that thing to vac & mop every other day and never worry about dirty floors again."

"I briefly owned an s7 maxV and found it identified and avoided more obstacles than my L10s Ultra. ... The roborock pathing also seems more intelligent and would simply maneuver around the obstacle rather than having to look back three to four times to make sure it avoided the object(L10s U). ... I found the software and obstacle avoidance was far superior on the roborock."
"It marks on the map what it thinks it is and takes a picture so I can see what it avoided. So far I haven’t had it hit anything and never has gotten stuck."
"They have one of the best avoidance system."

"I have two shorthair cats that shed, shed, shed and shed and the S7 deals with it just fine."
"does a great job. This is with 1 cat and one drooling toddler."

"The phone app is second to none in my opinion, having used Shark, iRobot and Neato in the past."
"Been very happy with its HA integration, and has been a part of me fleshing out some automations that we use [to make sure we are on top of our chores]"
"S7, works as it should. ... I haven't opened the roborock app on my phone for a very long time. ... in the HA app i have custom buttons for specific room cleaning as well as physical zigbee buttons in the house for cleaning rooms or to send to a pinned location for emptying the bing."

"Hair Pickup on carpet is better than the S7 MaxV but still worse than the Neato D7. ... I confirmed this by running the S7 Max V first (with rubber brush), on my upstairs carpeted room - that I purposely haven't vacuumed in a week. S7 Max V barely got anything and had some wrapped around the edges - as it does. ... For me yes but I say that mostly because of the tangle free vacuuming of pet hair and the improved hair pickup on carpets. I was tired of cleaning out the old one and so far with this I have zero tangles. ... The S7 MaxV had the worst hair pickup on carpets, with the stock rubber brush, of all the bots I ever owned. Tangles were minimal but it didn't do well taking hair off the carpets (it did great on the hardwood/tile though). Swapping out the rubber to the bristle brush improved the pickup but increased the tangle problem - it also created a problem with auto-empty for me a few times. ... It mops/vacuums significantly better than my S7 MaxV. Especially on carpets (especially especially pulling dog hair off carpets). ... That being said I LOVE the anti-tangle brush. 3 Months and I haven't had to clean the brush one time. It's literally perfect for me."
"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)."

"Each night before I ran the S7, I had to manually move and rearrange items on the floor so it didn’t get stuck. ... 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."
"Still. I own S7 MaxV and obstacle avoidance is nearly useless..."
"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."

"We bought a S7 and it broke down just a little over a year. ... Then it broke down again after a couple of months and we gave up on it."
"zero after-sales support"
"Sent it into to get repaired and had to pay to some weird PayPal account. ... And it was packaged very poorly when shipped back."

"It tends to get messy in the dock tray and the thing is hard to clean because it's not removable. ... If you can't stand your appliance being covered with residue, don't buy."
"it is a hassle to empty the dustbin and clean the mop pads every day"
