roborock Qrevo Slim Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo, 8.2cm Ultra-Slim, 3D Sensing Tech, Advanced Obstacle Recognition, 11,000Pa Suction, FlexiArm Side Brush & Mop, Auto Mop Washing & Drying, Self-Emptying

I love my first robot. It is a workhorse! It does not move haphazardly like some of my friends' vacuums. This robot is methodical. Easy to program. It goes straight to the scheduled room. When it meets a wall it moves over maybe 6" and returns on a parallel path making lovely, even vacuum path marks across the room's carpet. I bought this model because it is shorter and can reach under couches and dressers. Because it is so slim, the lidar technology is installed on the sides of the vacuum instead of on top. I imagine the top camera may turn independently to orient itself whereas on the slim model, the whole machine has to turn this way and that, when lost, to collect info from all its cameras before understanding its location. It takes a bit longer to get it's bearings but for me, it's worth the trade off. Mapping is a bit of a learning curve but I am amazed at just how accurate it is. Customer service is friendly, helpful and prompt. Just have your model and serial number ready before contacting. Rooms need to be cleared of obstacles. We broke the house into sections. Wednesday it is scheduled to clean the master suite Thursday it cleans the office and mancave. On Mondays it is scheduled to vacuum the dining, kitchen and living rooms. We move all the dining room chairs so it can has a clear path to concentrate on the crumbs under the table instead of navigating and circling 28 legs. On Fridays it recleans the dining room, kitchen and high traffic hallways. Because it does not do the entire house at once I cannot testify to battery life. It always has plenty of charge for the daily task unless it gets stuck. Suction is awesome. Cords need to be corralled, bath mats, waste baskets and laundry hampers need to be cleared from the scheduled paths. Last week the Roborock sucked up a low hanging Capri leg tie in the walkin closet and was stopped cold. The app on the phone tracks every move and helped us locate the robot when we realized it wasn't docked and charging. We have a second floor, so 2 maps. I carry the vacuum upstairs, click on the second map. When done, it is a little confused about how to return to the dock. The easiest way to reorient it is to place the robot just in front of the dock, click on map 1 and command it to return home. It turns around for a few seconds until it understands it's location, then backs in and starts charging We have been using it for 5 months and our house is cleaner than it has ever been when depending on me to get motivated. It's a lifesaver, a back saver and a time saver! You do have to check it periodically to make sure there are no blockages (such as a wayward post it note that has blocked the intake), the lidar lenses need dusting, and the filter needs to be rinsed every once in a while. Only two cons I can think of: 1. I don't need the mopping feature because some of our floors are very sensitive to water. It is hard to find a robot without that feature any more! The robot's dock is always displaying a red light because I don't fill the water tank which was a little disconcerting at first. 2. I named it Bella but it will only answer to Rocky.

After nearly 6 years using our old "dumb" robot vacuum, we decided to upgrade to a newer "smart" vacuum. After doing much research we found that the Roborock line of vacuums were getting very good reviews. This model was the one we chose, and after on month of use, we are very, very happy with the results.Set up was fast and easy, and the unit mapped our 1,300+ sqft main floor in less than 15 minutes and was ready to begin cleaning. The Roborock smartphone app is very user intuitive, and makes creating rooms, zones and flooring types very easy. Scheduling cleaning routines and creating "no go" areas is also very very easy.The unit will vacuum and mop our 1,300+ sqft main floor in about 2-1/2 hours which includes time to return to the dock and wash the mop pads, and recharge once. If we just want to vacuum only, it takes about half that amount of time.Pros:Excellent vacuum and mopping resultsVery good battery lifeEasy to use mobile appRelatively quiet operationVery good object detection and avoidanceLow profile allows units to clean under more objects than most unitsWarm air drying of the mop pads to prevent mold, mildew and odorsCons:Price... unit is very expensiveOnboard dust bin is small, and requires more frequent trips back to dockThis is kind of nitpicky, but when used in "smart plan" mode, the unit takes some odd routes around the house instead of cleaning rooms in close proximity to each other and kind of cleans areas at random. Again, this is really a small issue, and not a big deal at all.Overall, after using for a solid month so far, I really couldn't be happier with this vacuum, especially compared to our previous aged unit.Highly recommend!

I haven’t owned a different model to compare this robo vac/ mop with but this one seems to function well, and it should for the price.The vacuum function is excellent at pickup, and the same for the mopping. The navigation is solid. It does bump things very often and mis identifies obstacles but not a serious issue. I believe this stems from not having the lidar puck on top but rather in the front and relaying more on cameras for the navigation so they could achieve the lower profile design. Which to that end, this does fit nicely under literally every piece of furniture we own, including the dressers, which makes us feel great about how affective it cleans compared to our old vacuums and mops which literally never got under any of that unless we were rearranging a room. So for that aspect alone it’s great. I am a little concerned about long term wear and tear as it seems to struggle a bit in our tall high pile bedroom carpets and I’m sure that leads to a lot of motor fatigue. Another thing to note: it’s nice to not have to use a vacuum or mop but you do have to still think about where and when it cleans because things left on the floor present a big obstacle to it. Shoes, laundry, power cords, toys, anything small in its path it will bump into and around and even sometimes tangle with, so things need to be picked up if you want it to do a nice job or not get stuck. I think where it would really shine is big open spaces that don’t hardly see any clutter but have lots of furniture. Just maybe not high end wood furniture because again; this particular model bumps everything. There’s a setting to not get close to things but then I feel it defeats the point.The app functions well and is pretty easy to use for anyone that’s got some aptitude for that sort of thing. Otherwise I think you would want to watch some help videos or read the manual.In 5 years (maybe less) I think robovacs will be incredible, this isn’t quite there. But it is nice if you have the money to spare or a lack of time.TLDR: The low profile may make for slightly poorer navigation but it’s does an excellent job cleaning including underneath everything.
