roborock Saros 10R Robot Vacuum and Mop 22 000 Pa Suction Zero-Tangling 3 14 Ultra Slim FlexiArm Riser

The media could not be loaded. I’m stunned by the how incredible the Saros 10R is. I’ve been a iRobot Roomba customer for twenty years, and stubbornly stayed in Roombaland much longer than I should’ve. I finally switched when my last Roomba, a once-top-of-the-line J9+ Combo, fell victim to a known charging base defect that, once broken, made recharging impossible and essentially bricked the unit. Because I was just a bit outside of warranty, iRobot wouldn’t replace my charging / mopping base and offered me $150- toward the cost of replacing it outright from them directly, which they were still selling at that time for another $1,400. I jumped ship, rage-ordered a Saros 10R on the spot, and have never looked back. I’ve owned it for the last month+ and am just gobsmacked by how much better a cleaning machine this Roborock is compared to all the other Roombas I’ve ever owned (numerous models over years). My floors have never been cleaner as the vacuuming and mopping technology this machine employs are exceedingly better than my last Roomba. It just … *works* … does what it’s supposed to, properly, when you expect it to. No more weird ‘I’m stuck’ errors or ‘I’m lost under the dining table / chairs *again* and can’t find my way out even though I’ve been here dozens and dozens of times before’ problems. No more VSLAM technology slowly chipping and scraping the hell out of my expensive walnut furniture. No more being afraid to let it run while I’m away from home because something would inevitably fail with whatever scheduled cleaning it was supposed to be running. This machine is incredible. It is solidly built. It is easy to use and set up. It quickly accurately and effortlessly mapped my home on its first mapping run. Its obstacle avoidance is superior to any other Roomba I’ve owned, and works flawlessly. It avoids bumping into any of my furniture as it is sensitive enough to get right up next to table / desk / sofa / chair / bed legs and clean around them without actually connecting or coming into contact with any of them. It’s just … well, I want to write ‘perfect’ but as nothing can be truly perfect I’ll just write I am at a loss to list anything I have a quibble with. Plus, it’s almost eerily quiet compared to my last Roomba. I can barely tell where it is in my house without looking at the app or scouting for it when it’s working unless it’s very nearby. My dog used to run out of any room my last Roomba entered, but now he just glances at the 10R and continues napping or playing or whatever without fear. My husband complained pretty frequently about how loud our last Roomba was, and I now joke to friends the Saros 10R practically saved our marriage because it’s so much quieter when it’s cleaning. My household is comprised of two adults, one pretty fluffy medium-haired cat, one small short-haired dog, no children, and mostly hard-surface flooring with low-to-medium-pile area rugs and runners in almost every room but the bathrooms. It is brand-new construction and so is without extreme-door-sill or room-threshold height challenges, but I’ve seen my Saros 10R navigate over low-furniture barriers like the base of my console and coffee tables without any difficulty whatsoever using the AdaptLift Chassis feature — that technology is pretty impressive. I love this thing. So much. If you’re a frustrated Roomba owner like I was, or looking to upgrade your Roborock, don’t hesitate — the Roborock Saros 10R … ROCKS. Ugh, sorry. I couldn’t resist.

Great little helper for daily cleaning. The Saros robotic vacuum cleans well, moves smartly around the house, and saves a lot of time. It’s easy to use, works quietly, and keeps floors clean with almost no effort. Definitely worth it for everyday cleaning. Read more

Love the thin profile of this vacuum. It goes under all my furniture. The only thing that I don't like is that it ran over a power cord and got stuck. One of the two mops actually got pulled off and I had to reinstall it. Other than that it works perfectly. All my floors are tile no carpets. It goes back to the base station several times during a cleaning run to wash the mops. Did a great job mapping my home. I run this on the second floor of my home where we have two bedrooms, closets, and a bathroom. It mapped all the rooms, closets, and bathroom perfectly. Floors are clean and dust free after a cleaning run. Setup was easy...plug and play. I run a Eufy on the first floor. I think the 10R is a better system because it is thinner and cleans under all the furniture. However, it cost me twice as much money as the Eufy. I saw on Amazon that this was a high return item and they actually stopped listing it for a while. I'm not sure why that is because it's worked great for me other than the one time it ran over a power cord under one of my beds. UPDATE I paid $1600 for mine at $999 it's a steal. Wish I would have waited. Too late now..... Read more

The media could not be loaded. I really wanted to like thing this not especially after having an awful experience with a different >$1k vac from a competitor. Sadly I can report that as a vaccuum, this $1600 model is far less reliable at actually picking up debris and hair than a $50 generic stick vac. 1. The Vacuum The final straw for me was trying to clean up some hair from my bathroom floor after a hair cut. I ran the unit over the smaller area exactly 8 times and it still failed to remove every strand. As you can see in my video, it literally rolls right over smaller lighter strands of hair. These were not wet or stuck down, I could move them by blowing on them. And yes, I had made sure there were no clogs and that the dust bin was empty. I ran it on maximum+ suction each pass. As a vacuum, my 3 year old roborock q5 was a superior product at 1/3rd the price. That thing got tangled in hair and didn't avoid socks, while the saros 10r still eats the occasional sock it never gets tangled in hair. The split roller design is good, but it leaves a ton of hair on the ground as it passes over anyway. Can't be tangle free when you don't pick up hair at all! It's not just hair that it misses, it also drives over finer chunks of dirt I spilled from houseplants and other objects that should be no problem to pick up. 2. The mop I might be asking too much of this technology, but I had hoped running it often would help keep my kitchen floor tiles clean. I cook often and sometimes fine amounts of oil splatters on the ground. When the mop is done working, the kitchen floor never feels clean, but it does become cloudy. I've tried maximum water and max detergent settings (using the roborock first party detergent) and all it does is seem to spread the oil across the floor evenly, moving it to areas and rooms it wasn't even close to originally. I've got the mop set to clean at the highest frequency too, I'm pretty much maxed out on all settings, it simply doesn't do a great job here. It also failed to remove a small dried on blob or sauce that I left out as a test. Since buying this thing I think I've actually had to use my hand held mop and vacuums more often just because I feel like the area SHOULD be clean after spending this kind of money on something. 3. The navigation So on one hand this thing crushed the ecovacs x9 I was comparing it to, which couldn't drive in a straight line or map my area to save it's life. On the other hand the lack of a lidar tower is still painfully obvious. The unit still kinda meanders a bit and misses some obvious paths, it's not terrible- but again my old q5 did a much better job. The 10r also has failed to recognize a cord and a sock once or twice, though it's a huge improvement over the q5 which had no object avoidance at all. Bottom line is this: I'm returning it. No way I can justify this premium expense for a product that fails to be a functional vacuum or a functional mop. I really wanted to like it too because I love the roborock app, it's just that I also need my vaccuum to be able to you know... vacuum things. Read more
