"The Anti-Tangle brush is actually Anti-Tangle. All my previous vacuums would get hair tangled in a single run - I'd clean them at least once a week (neato way more) to get all the hair out. After 24 hours, I see 0 hair stuck. Not one. ... 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."

"the split brush on the 10r is absolutely amazing with long hair"

"The unit was an upgrade from a Roomba S9. That unit did a good job of vacuuming but was very prone to having problems with obstacles. For example, it would launch itself up onto the circular rod -like bases of several of my chairs and become stuck there. They Roborock 10R correctly recognized all of the bases as something to avoid. Some of them get labeled as chair bases and others simply as wires. It has avoided every obstacle."
"And the object avoidance is fantastic. ... It got stuck a single time trying to get into my bathroom where there’s a bit of a jump up onto the tile. ... Has sucked up 0 cords. ... Got stuck on 0 flip flops. ... And had shit mop water onto my floor 0 times."
"Saros 10r is worth buying if you truly need perfect obstacle avoidance ... If you will more often start it when you are out and don't want to check the house before you leave or especially if your pet is home (never know what your pet is up to all day...), I would go with Saros10r, because in this scenario you certainly will be happy for its better obstacle avoidance ... I have developed a habit to check the app afterwards which cords/wires and cat toys it avoided this time (I let it take pics) - I am always surprised to see cat toys in places that I never saw them before and where they also aren't anymore once I get home..."

"For me it's not leaving any streaks or excess water on the floor, so I'm really happy with it."
"I've not had a problem and my floors get MUDDY. I have 3 dogs that go out constantly and my backyard is pretty much all dirt because of said dogs. When it rains my floors turn brown every 30 minutes 😭"
"the water residue is perfect for me—floors dry quickly but still feel thoroughly cleaned. ... flawless floor-drying"

"It’s is SO MUCH more quiet than the s7 it ramped up the suction power from 4000 to 19000 yet I can let it clean my office room while being in a call now."
"the Saros is very quiet imo. ... Even with Carpet Boost on I think it’s quieter than the Dreame X40 I have. ... I think it’s really quiet actually even on carpet with carpet boost on"
"believe it’s much quieter than my S8."

"have furniture that it can fit under while the curv can't. ... For us the answer was "Never lift the couch in a team effort ever again to clean under? Please take our money!!!""
"The USPs for me are its ability to punch through a sofa valance to clean underneath and to go under my 8cm TV cabinet."
"The Saros 10 also gets under low lying furniture ... which I absolutely LOVE!! ... Because then all the pet hair and dust that sits under furniture is no longer an issue"

"Whenever I do this with our 10R, I do find stuff in the dustbin, but there is never all that much. ... When the S8 goes through right afterwards, it's dustbin is completely full. The S8 that recleaned an already cleaned (by the 10R) room picks up five times as much stuff."
"All of the other Qrevo models use the same split single rollers with auto detangling as is used in the Saros 10R . None of the other Qrevo models will give you really good vacuuming performance. ... You can have a robovac with these rollers vacuum your house three times and it will not come out as clean as a dual roller model will the first time. ... The difference in vacuuming ability is immediately noticable when seen side by side."
"Our Saros 10R is an amazing machine, but it is a mediocre vacuum cleaner at best. ... If you want a very cool machine that mops well but sucks at vacuuming, get a Saros or other similar robovac from another manufacturer. Your friends will be impressed but your home will remain dirty. ... I much prefer my old lidar S8s for their significantly better vacuuming ability and because they are much faster at getting the job done. ... Lastly, a robot vacuum cleaner is simply a vacuum cleaner with some cool features. If it can't vacuum clean very well, it isn't useful to me. ... For me, the Saros 10R was a very fancy, impressive, expensive mistake. A Qrevo Master for $700 less would have served me much better and left me with a cleaner house."

"As someone who has owned both a 10R and Z70, I died laughing at the 10R winning the OA category. What a joke. It has worse OA in normal household lighting than my S8. Maybe they should stop testing everything under ridiculously bright studio lights on the perfect light colored floor."
"the 10R needs to be at None to clean the room fully, otherwise it’s useless. ... The system is super sensitive."
"The obstacle avoidance seems worse, maybe even way worse? ... Yesterday when I was messing around with it, it ran into one of my dogs stuffed toys and got stuck on it. ... It also decided to "jump" little tray tables I have under my sofa, and got stuck on a wire behind them. ... This morning was the first time I ran it on a schedule - I do it early before I wake up, but I woke up to it stuck on the cable for my Wife's keyboard, the mop got wrapped in the cable and it pulled it off. ... Just an hour or so ago today, when I was testing the carpet pickup on the second floor, it ran into a sock under my nightstand and got jammed. ... I still find the obstacle avoidance to be pretty mid. It got stuck on wire again this morning and once again lost a mop pad and stopped. ... It doesn't work for cables with me well at all. My wife has a keyboard with foot peddle and it was constantly getting stuck on the cord, pulling the mop pad off. I had to no-go zone that area. I also have a floor fan with a wire that runs across the floor a bit and it got stuck on that a few times too. ... I personally find the object avoidance worse than my S7 MaxV. On top of it being worse (in terms of colliding with objects) the design of the spinning mops makes it more likely to stop the run. Basically my S7 Max V would occasionally run over stuff -- but it would continue going. The mop pad wouldn't get bulled off. The Saros 10R not only seems to hit more objects, but when it does the mop pad often gets pulled off and requires intervention. ... I really think this has to do with the surface types/colors. I have dark grain hardwood floor and a geometric carpet. I think it struggles on this. ... For things like leaves, it goes around them, when it could easily suck them up, which is annoying. ... The sock is weird though - white sock on a brown rug.. and it didn't just tap it and move it, it ran it over and got stuck."

"Depending on carpet it is even outperformed by a s7 ... It is not a good vacuuming robot."
"terrible at picking up small bits of cat litter"
"my older, charging base only $350 S8 with 6000Pa of suction power significantly outperforms my $1500 Saros 10R with 18500Pa of suction power when it comes to pure vacuuming capability."

"I'm not highly sold that the Saros are $700 better."
"I would much rather live without my Saros 10R (US$1500) than one of my S8s (US$350)!!!!!"
"The self mopping feature imo is not worth it"

"The Saros 10R was such a disappointment as a vacuum cleaner that it has become a super fancy, very expensive mop ... The 10R sucks as a vacuum cleaner - pardon the pun ... It is a terrible vacuum cleaner ... And those $1000+ will get you worse vacuuming cleaning ability."
