Q10 S5+ Robot Vacuum and Mop, 10,000Pa Suction, Upgraded from Q8 max+, 70 Days Self-Emptying, Obstacle Avoidance, Sonic Mopping, Dual Anti-Tangle Design, Auto Mop Lifting, Ideal for Pet Hair

Unboxed it today and got it cleaning the main part of the house after just charging it to 51%. I am still having trouble believing how good it is, especially in cleaning up clumps of pet hair all over the place. We have multiple dogs and cats who shed constantly and copiously, and I have black floors to boot (pro tip: pets and black floors are a bad combination). In addition, the beasts keep tracking in mud/dirt from the backyard and leave muddy (when raining) and dusty (when dry) paw marks all over the place. So I set out to see how the S7 would deal with the worst of it. I decided to not manually vacuum first because I wanted to stress-test it with a week's worth of pet hair clumped all over the place along with a filthy floor. I installed the Roborock app on an Android tablet (with no Google account on it, got the app off apkpure, natch), created a Roborock account, and used the app to connect the robot to my Wifi and install a firmware update which was available. I then filled the water reservoir and snapped on the mop attachment with the mop cloth on it. Then as soon as the charge level hit 51% I pressed the "Clean" button in the app and waited to see how the robot would tackle the very unclean floor. The S7 was totally up to the challenge, and right out of the dock it left a strip of unbelievably clean floor. Now I wish I had taken photographs, because this thing just went gangbusters on all the clumps of hair and dust on the floor and I'm still pleasantly shocked by how good a job it did. The area mapping algorithm is pretty efficient and effective - it divided up non-rectilinear areas into blocks of rectangles, and after systematically cleaning the rectangular area it went to clean the irregularly shaped areas (of which my house has many; I think the architect hated 90-degree angles and liked conic sections). As the robot moves about doing its business, the app shows real-time progress of the robot's movement as well as new areas of the map appearing - if you've played an RPG computer game, the map update as the LIDAR refines the map and shows new areas is very like how games like Baldur's Gate, Diablo, etc uncover new areas of the map as you explore them. It did most of the main area in 34 minutes, using up 32% of charge. Just as it negotiated the tall bumpy threshold into one of the bedrooms, it decided it needed to return to the dock for charging. Now, that threshold between the bedroom and the main area is quite large, and I was expecting that I'd need to go help the robot back into the main area so it could go dock itself, but after a few seconds I heard it trundling back in and it headed straight to the dock and plugged itself in to charge. At this point I plucked it off the dock to see exactly how much trouble it had gotten itself into with all the pet hair it had sucked up so far. I expected that the roller would be wound solid with pet hair and that I'd need a session with scissors and patience. It was not needed - the roller was completely clean, and most of the pet hair it had sucked up was in the dust bin. One compressed clump of pet hair was up against a wall, but I think it got dislodged there as the robot cleaned the floor at the wall junction. The dustbin itself could be designed a bit better because it has a couple of baffles across the top of it (under a removable filter) which make it a little difficult to empty the dustbin of pet hair - I had to pick out clumps with my fingers and pitch them in a dustbin. No biggie, though. I then checked the state of the mop cloth to see whether the cleaned-up pet hair was felted to the cloth, and again I was impressed by how little pet hair was actually on the mop cloth; I expected lots but found almost none, which was further proof that the robot had vacuumed up whatever it encountered. The water reservoir was about half empty. Sound-wise, the robot is not that noisy when cleaning - to me it seems to be less noisy than a regular non-robotic vacuum cleaner. The robot is currently resting (charging) and I've refilled the water reservoir. Can't wait to see how the algorithm handles cleaning when it has to resume cleaning where it left off. One thing I have to mention: since Roborock is a Chinese company I had some privacy concerns regarding house maps etc (remember the Roomba scandal from a few years ago?) which remain to be assuaged, but the company's product page for the S7 MaxV Ultra (the S7's bigger better brother) states that they have privacy certifications from a well-known German arbiter whose name escapes me at the moment, so perhaps this is not going to be a problem after all. All in all, I am VERY impressed by this thing and will definitely be buying the AutoDock for it. Next year, I'll buy its bigger brother the S7 MaxV Ultra (with double the suction power, and a snazzy self-cleaning AutoDock) when I have some money to drop on it.

In a nutshell, you will LOVE this vacuum if you have smooth hard surface floors like luxury vinyl planks (LVP), hardwood, etc. Truly, it’s the best thing since the automatic washing machine! It also does well on tile floors for vacuuming, but for mopping, it’s basically is a Swiffer so your grout may not be as clean as you want. I don’t have carpet, but I have 2 small rugs. It recognizes when it switches to rugs/carpets but it takes a couple seconds for it to kick into “Max” suction, so my rugs were only partially cleaned. The details… FYI, you’ll need an outlet area with quite a bit of clearance around it for the charging base – 3 feet on either side and 5 feet in front of it (per the manual). Allow about 4 hours for it to fully charge for the first time. Installing the app on an iPhone and connecting the vacuum to your 2.5 gig Wi-Fi (after entering Wi-Fi password) you: 1) Click on the button at the bottom of the app to proceed. 2) Your Wi-Fi settings open, then you click on the Roborock. 3) Close “Settings” and click on the Roborock app. Now the Roborock S5 Max is setup. OK, I named my Roborock “Rosie” (after the Jetson’s robot maid), so “it” is changing to a “she”. 😊 Vacuuming: Just press the button on the Roborock and she says “Starting to clean” and takes off! The first time cleaning she’ll make a map of your place, which you can view in the app. She uses her external brush on the right side to sweep in dirt toward her and then vacuums it up! She really digs into areas while cleaning around obstacles. She swept in my small walk-in closet but didn’t disturb my clothes that were hanging to the floor. BIG BONUS: her low profile allows her to clean areas that I very rarely clean! She went under my beds, night stands and dressers! She even went BEHIND the couch! If she can get to it, she’ll clean it! But on the flip side, make sure you don’t have things like boxes, power cords, etc. which can get in the way of cleaning. The app shows the power settings for vacuuming: Balanced, Turbo and Max. It’s defaulted to “Balanced” mode which appears to be lower suction for hard floors and it increases power when it’s on a rug. On that note though, she did not do a good job cleaning small rugs. I have LVP throughout the condo and tile in the bathrooms. I like running her on Turbo mode which is slightly noisier and uses a bit more power. If you have tile floors with grout, it might be better to use a higher suction mode to clean the grout better. Repositioning: Originally, I plugged her into a spot that had the required clearance, but thought I’d try a different spot where the bed is only 4 feet in front of her, BUT she can go under the bed, so that gives her the clearance she needs. When I started her up in her new location, she moved forward, looked around and then said “Positioning”. Then she roamed around the room and briefly outside the bedroom and said “Positioning complete”. Now she knew where she was and started on her merry way vacuuming the condo! No go zone: I didn’t want her to chew up my tree skirt around the Christmas tree so I used the app to draw a “no go zone”. You can draw a box on the map or in my case, I drew some lines. Sure enough, she didn’t go past the lines I drew in and my Christmas tree skirt was spared! Bottom line: 17 stars out of 5! She does a GREAT job and I love that she vacuums UNDER things that I typically ignore. The mopping is also a great feature that helps your floors look fresh and clean. Although this doesn’t replace YOU vigorously mopping your floors, it definitely helps to keep lightly dirty floors cleaner. I can’t say how well she works on carpet, but if you have mostly a hard surface floor, she’s a HUGE help!

This is SUCH a good robot vacuum! We absolutely love this addition to our home. Mapping is great, I haven't had a glitch in the app, no go lines and no mop areas are reliable and easy to set up. The suction is great and leaves my floors without residue. We use the mop on most nights and are really happy with it's performance on our laminate floors. The first few times, you will have streaks. This is due to the floors being dirty. With regular use, the streaks will diminish. This is significantly quieter than our previous iLife robot vacuum. We can have it on the normal strength suction whilst watching TV in the same room. Filter is easy to clean, bin is big enough for our home - we empty after each use. Carpet performance is excellent. Haven't been the least bit disappointed. 2 dogs that shed a LOT are no match for this little guy.

Wow! Finally i bought it after a lot of doubts. Reviews. Thinking.. reading.. hesitating.. and being tired to mop my kitchen every day so many times. It is amazing helper. It started smoothly and was so easy to understand even for dummies. Yes it also needs some maintenance - and due to compact sizes you need to fill tank daily, wash the mop and etc. But it still worth it especially if you have big space and not crowded. Though it navigate around room very well. I decided to buy accessories and ordered some extra mops here and brushes but not sure if those are originals. In general- I am happy i bought it

This is my first robotic vacuum. I have dark hardwood floors throughout and a black and white super shedder dog. When the vac goes through, not only does it pick up visible crumbs, fur, etc. but the dander from animal and humans. The shine that comes back on the floors is amazing. The fact that it does the cleaning under the beds as well is awesome. I don't use the app. Wally (the Roborock) moves along like he's got eyes. If I don't want a room cleaned, I close the door. Being a senior, this machine is a godsend.

This is an incredible product. I absolutely love it, it’s amazing. It cleans above my expectations. I bought it specifically to deal with animal hairs as I have three pets and it does this wonderfully. It has transformed my life. Some reviewers said it was noisy but I don’t find it so although I do live in Cairo and we’re “noise immune” in this city ☺️. Anyway I highly recommend it to anyone considering buying this purchase.

Actualización! La uso diario por qué mis gatos tiran mucho pelo, la amo !!! De verdad que buena inversión!!!! Bueno apenas tengo dos días que la uso. Aspira super bien! Tiene 4 modos de aspiración, yo tengo dos gatos y esos pelos que aspiro no se veían en mi piso, robot aspiro y yo trapee, La interfaz de la app es muy amigable, puedes separar las habitaciones, yo tengo dos pisos y mapee arriba a también, tu la llevas la dejas en un punto mapea y regresa a ese punto ya que su base la puse abajo. Puedes prohibir zonas, puedes poner paredes falsas. Puedes usarla con el 🕹️ por si quieres aspirar algo en un punto fijo. Llega a su base muy bien. Sensor de caídas excelente ya que tengo escalones aquí en la sala y comedor y no pasó nada. Se mete entre las sillas del comedor, la verdad es buena compra, eso sí ,hay que limpiar diario el.contenedor de basura ya que es pequeño pero no te tardas ni 5 min. Yo lei muchas opciones de robots y está fue la que más me gustó y hasta ahorita creo fue buena opción.
