"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."
"The Roborock S7 is a beast with pet hair"
"The S7 is the best model roborock has made as far as vacuuming performance goes. ... The s8 does not have better vacuuming than the s7"

"It did a perfect job so far, I only have to empty/fill the water tanks in the station once a week (the robot vacuums the whole flat everyday and mops the flat twice a week)."
"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."
"Roborock gave me hours of my life back and that's not an exaggeration."

"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."
"works with home assistant"

"It’s smart enough to know when something is in the way and just works around it. The next time if that thing isn’t there it just cleans as normal."

"Oh I had it, it’s even worse. Try testing out its avoidance with almost anything, especially on carpets. ... It didn’t know the poo it saw a week ago was real thou ): ... Never had me roomba j series run into poop. ... My Roomba J9+ avoided diarrhea ... Because both my Dreame L series and Roomba J series did the same test flawlessly"
"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."
"Oh I had it, it’s even worse. Try testing out its avoidance with almost anything, especially on carpets. ... Yeah, on hard floor it seems to do well; it’s issues are pretty specific to carpet from my experience. ... Same issues with all my carpets."

"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."
"my S7 has been having trouble picking stuff up even after swapping the filters and brushes"
"A side effect, which I also didn’t mention, is that „scraps of dust“ are often lost during vacuuming and cleanliness suffers as a result."

"they all started having mopping issues after 8-9 months"
"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."
"The S7 doesn't mop that great... it's just dragging a wet rag."

"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."
"they all started having mopping issues after 8-9 months"
"Roborock S7. it arrived with a defective vibrarise, that roborock said that I had to chip it to china to be replaced. It would be very expensive and at the time, I fixed the vibrarise by myself. ... No. I ordered it from a local store. At arrival, I noticed the problem and they claimed to be just resellers, because roborock isn't sold officially in Brazil. Then, they mailed me the purchase certificate that had the data required to ask for roborock warranty. I contacted them and they asked for proof of the defect. No problem, I filmed it, uploaded it and shared it with them. No one watched the video (I checked the stats) and yet, they accepted the bot as defective. They then said that would repair it for free, but I had to ship it to mainland China at my own expense. The guy said that the return would be paid by them. The catch: I had to ship it as I received it. The whole box, with everything inside and not just the bot. I'm glad that I didn't purchase the version with the self emptying dock (I purchased it as an extra, not in the same box). With that, I gave up on warranty. I tracked the defective part and the cost would be 1/10 of the value required to chip the bot. I'm skilled enough to replace it and saw their offer as laughable, because those guys said that it was a defect impossible to fix at home (it's difficult, but I did it anyway)."
from a roborock users perspective (S7 pro here, works OK but still lots of thinkering) I would say the same.
r/homeassistant • Which robot vacuum is best with HA right now? ->I have the S7 Pro Ultra. Definitely kept up with all the regular maintenance, filter cleaning/sensor cleaning/brush changing all of it. I’m a type A ‘clean with a toothbrush’ type of person, the type of person that uses Reddit and will disassemble her mop/vacuum to fix it. 🤣 Super disappointing seeing as customer service could easily resolve the issue by just mailing me the replacement part. I thought I was being thoughtful by not insisting in sending it in for repair and them paying for shipping given I have dated screenshots of when the error first occurred and it was inside the warranty window (instead of the 5 day after the window when I finally emailed).
r/Roborock • Robo vacuum worth it? ->https://preview.redd.it/dbpbcjhn1r6f1.jpeg?width=2268&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d4dcf5a1720a7ef9ce4741ced57d1686b4c60348 My S7 pro ultra cleans this carpet well. Lifts the mop and vacuums in full power
r/Roborock • Can Robotock do better on Carpet? ->I had a Shark VacMop and that thing was only doing a basic job. Especially the app was very bad and the mapping/navigation was not really accurate. Now I've got a Roborock S7 Pro Ultra and that thing is doing a really great job. The mapping/navigation is premium and the automatic mop cleaning works like a charm. The app is also great, so I would recommend to buy such a robot, there are even good used ones (mine was also a second hand purchase). Dreame seems to be also quite good but I don't have any experience with that brand.
r/RobotVacuums • what is the best robot vacuum now? ->I have the Roborock for almost 2 months now and I bought it in used condition. The pre-owner used it for around 18 months. I'm very pleased that the robot contained some spare parts, especially those which are meant to be exchanged after some months of extensive usage. It did a perfect job so far, I only have to empty/fill the water tanks in the station once a week (the robot vacuums the whole flat everyday and mops the flat twice a week).
r/RobotVacuums • what is the best robot vacuum now? ->Personally wasn't worth it for me, but we don't have wide open floors in our flat and it's a little cramped. Can imagine it's better if you do have those wider spaces but found it fairly average at hoovering even on the hardwood floors. Maybe others have better experiences than me but we sold ours fairly quickly after getting it For ref that was the Roborock 7
r/SiberianCats • Is a Robot vacuum worth it for Pet Hair? Best options under $200? ->Our Roborock works well on our hard floors but I do sometimes need to do the rugs manually
r/CleaningTips • Any good robot vacuums for picking up PET HAIR? What do you use? ->I think I have the s7 ultra
r/CleaningTips • Any good robot vacuums for picking up PET HAIR? What do you use? ->Our first was an old hand me down eufy. Just kind of bumbled around randomly. Still helped, but had to maintain a lot. I ended up getting a Roborock s7 ultra that makes a map and mops and vacuums. Run every night in the main rooms and a few times a week in bedrooms and I haven’t cleaned floors manually in months. Helped with old dog (pit bull mix that shed a lot) and new dog (collie with super long hair).
r/homeowners • What robot vacuums for pet hair do you absolutely swear by? Good brands that you love? ->We got a Roborock s7 ultra and it’s so helpful. We have a hairy dog. We haven’t spent time on the floors in months.
r/Frugal • Is it worth paying more for a robot vacuum if it makes cleaning easier? ->I also love my Roborock (S7 ultra I think). Going on two years and only have to do minor maintenance. After my last dog passed, I started to wonder if it was worth it and turned down the frequency, but now I have a new very fluffy collie and it runs every night. On the off chance it doesn’t run (gets stuck, etc - not too often) I can tell right away 🤣
r/CleaningTips • Will I regret getting a robot vacuum? ->I've only had this a day but really impressed with it. Its half the price of my Roborock S7 Ultra and its got better vacuuming and mopping. The design of the dock is better as it makes maintenance a lot easier with the removable section. I don't have pets but house is 50/50 carpet/tile and no issues with vacuuming or mopping or navigation so far. It did once think the grout between the tile was a wire or cable and try to avoid it.
r/RobotVacuums • [Early Look] MOVA P10 Pro Ultra - The New Value Champion! (Vacuum Wars Preview) ->Get the #5, I got the mova p10 pro ultra. It's amazing. Really impressed compared to my roborock s7 ultra. Also much cheaper
r/RobotVacuums • Big Changes on the Vacuum Wars Top 20 List Today ->My Roborock S7 Ultra is significantly quieter than the iRobot that it replaced. It is also better at navigating and can finish the job in like 1/5 time.
r/RobotVacuums • Has cleaning performance improved much in the last 10+ years? ->I run my bot every day. It’ll do the high traffic area in 30 minutes and a full house on Sunday in about 2.5h. I feel like little and often is the way to go. I can’t say I’ve wanted more suction from it. If I had a wishlist it would be to make it quiet enough to run at night, and for it never to get snagged in cables (it can ‘see’ supposedly but it’s not perfect)
r/RobotVacuums • Has cleaning performance improved much in the last 10+ years? ->I know someone already mentioned the S7 Max Ultra and you already responded that the newer models are better. I'm circling back because my S7 Ultra feels pretty perfect. I believe you that later models are better, but I can't visualize how. What am I missing out on? (You know I'm foolishly hoping you'll tell me they'll do my taxes and make toast!)
r/RobotVacuums • I write about robot vacuums for a living. AMA. ->I would push you towards either Roborock or dreame as they both have the best robots in the game and some of the best apps. I would also suggest you to consider using the mopping feature as a lot of new vacuums now are able to smart detect carpet and other things to keep your floors safe. IF you’re not using the mopping feature then it’s super easy to keep you probably under $1500 for three of them without even thinking about it. The other thing I’m going to suggest is keeping all three of them in one ecosystem so you can set up smart schedules through your app and let it handle almost everything. What I would do personally (if I had to buy 3) X1 [Dreame L40 Ultra AE](https://a.co/d/13v1INz) ($999 each): put this in your highest traffic area and you will be blown away by how clean your floors get. [Review](https://youtu.be/0tDHbOp-WjY?si=igaZKjPZlbNyogeJ). x2 [Dreame L40 Ultra](https://a.co/d/gHy9S4I) ($599 each). You could also just get three of these and be very happy. The L40 Ultra a phenomenal robot tha will do anything you could possibly think of asking it while also being able to handle tougher situations. [Review](https://youtu.be/51YlbWSDGDs?si=IoUXFZaR8w-rV58i). This is a steal at $599. Personally, I would just buy two of the L40 ultra AEs and put the Rooma in that unfinished space you were talking about. I would also consider two [Roborock S8 ultra maxes](https://a.co/d/5n5nCQq). I have the S7 ultra and I would die for it.
