roborock Qrevo Slim Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo 8 2cm Ultra-Slim 3D Sensing Tech Advanced Obstacle Recognition 11

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. Read more

The media could not be loaded. Roborock S8 Max Ultra – One Week In: A Real-World Review I’ve been using the Roborock S8 Max Ultra for about a week now, right after moving into my new home. Overall, the experience has been smooth and impressive. 📶 Setup & Wi-Fi Connection During the initial setup, I did run into a common issue: the robot only supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. Since my home network used a combined 2.4GHz/5GHz band, I had to split the bands and connect the robot to the 2.4GHz network manually. Once I did that, the pairing process was straightforward. 🧹 Cleaning Performance My house has laminate flooring throughout and tiled bathrooms. Right now, we don’t have a lot of furniture, but the robot has done a great job navigating around chair and table legs, accurately detecting and avoiding them with its obstacle avoidance system. I ran two separate cleaning tasks: a full-house vacuum at standard intensity and a full-house mopping. The vacuuming performance was solid—it picked up hair and small debris effortlessly. Some corners were a bit hard to reach, but that’s pretty typical for any robot vacuum. The mopping was also impressive: the floor was noticeably cleaner without being left too wet. 🤖 Smart Features That Impressed Me Two things stood out in a good way: 1. When vacuuming the small bathroom rug, the robot not only detected it accurately but also cleaned it without shifting it out of place. 2. It successfully recognized and marked clusters of charging cables and even a bathroom scale on the app’s map—which was surprisingly accurate. ⚠️ One Minor Flaw The only issue I’ve encountered so far was in my study. The robot detected the modem’s power cable lying on the floor but still spent a little too long cleaning around it, eventually pulling the plug out. I plan to set a no-go zone in that area for future cleanings, which should solve the problem. ✅ Verdict All in all, this was a very worthwhile purchase. The S8 Max Ultra has taken care of the majority of my floor cleaning needs and saved me a ton of time and effort. While it’s not flawless, its performance and smart features have been more than enough to win me over. Read more

I absolutely love this robot. I’ve had no issues with it. It does so much more than the iRobot that I had which was a J7+. I didn’t want to leave iRobot, but Roborock offers so many more features. At the time of my purchase, this unit was also on sale. The only issue that ever occurs is if the robot gets caught on something in my house. It usually recognizes this issue and then creates a suggestion in the app to make a no-go zone for that area in my house. And rarely do I ever have to go looking for it because it got caught on something or stuck. By far the most customizable experience compared to iRobot. As long as you keep it clean and the water tank full, it’ll do amazing for you. I have a one level house, it reaches under my furniture with no issues. The suction power seems good. My floors always look very nice and there are so many fun features with it. I also own a Bissell cross wave. We went from using it once a week to once every month. And sometimes not even that. I just feel that this robot does just the perfect amount of work and cleans super well. I love the scheduling part as well. We have it go off while we’re at work and I never have issues with it. We always come home to a nice clean home. It’s very easy to set up and it honestly does a lot of the work for you when you first get it. It gets to know your house using AI and it seems to do pretty well. I just kind of let it do its own thing. Highly recommend! Read more
