Hey man! Thanks for this very thorough review! Great work! A clarifying question, the VibraRise system only rises the mop when it detects carpets? One nice feature for me would be the ability to have the mop always installed, and when you e.g. select vacuum only that it would simply keep the mop lifted during the cleaning session. Then you could mop when you saw it was needed, and vacuum when it was needed, all while keeping the mop installed, only refilling the tank when need be. That would create a more seamless experience in my opinion, than having to reinstall it every time you want to use it

I have the s5 max and have been very happy about it. It has started to sound a bit strange though. I'm kind of wondering if it's built to last the famous two years. I'm glad they still support it. I wrote them at some point and got an answer very fast, so they seem very legit and serious. The scrupping motion seems like a great idea, but it will probably make it brake sooner. The more moving parts, the great risk of it breaking down, is my experience, so I'll be waiting to see.

Great review... i wish they shall introduce Y shape mopping with option to either use it or keep standard moping , it is very efficient way as 1st forward pass wets the stains and 2nd reverse pass cleans most of it, in comparison to the vibrator as well as standard passes by s5 max 1st pass wets the stains but as there is no immediate 2nd pass so once the robot comes back again for 2nd pass the stains are again dried so apparantely very less performance unfortunately :( i have also asked Roborock to provide Y pattern mopping in upcoming feature as old buyers of S5 max shall not be buying S7 only because of mopping upgrade which can easily be attained by introduing y shape mopping by Roborock; afterall its hard earned money and even s5max is not cheap to buy....
@AzizIzgin3 жыл бұрын
VERY good points👌🏻 I own s5 Max and am quite happy although now that 3-4 months have passed I now see where it not as good. It is very bad at climbing higher than 2cm. It has a hard time on even medium thick carpets (we own no long haired carpets). It takes also very long time for it to get back on track if it looses its path(although I will upgrade router now and see if there is any difference). The mopping is really only for wetting without the y shape pattern... if you do it often it is ok . With all this knowledge I would only pick this if I don’t have carpets at all. We don’t have many but still, we did not buy a robot to do the vacuum ourselves... Also, sometimes it isn’t that smart... when cleaning our hall that is rectangular... instead of going straight along side with the length of the hallway... it wants to take like 50 turns in cleaning while traveling the “width of the rectangle shaped” hallway . So instead of around 5 turns it goes like 50 turns 🙄 However, I’d still buy it if it was the only robot to choose from. It has helped a lot despite these cons. Today I’d buy something that can do it all... that don’t get stuck primarily

One main question to check in the future, once the cross pattern will be extended to S5max: - Add the S7 new mop to a S5 Max - Test its result and compare it to a S7 mopping I'm pretty sure the result will be similar. And in that case there will be only one argument left to justify the S7 --> The dock. I hope you could make that test right now, even without the cross pattern ready so we could better understand what feature has a bigger impact on mopping: Vibration OR New Mop or Both ;) Cause if the difference is not that major, there's a point about the technological complexity and its capacity to lower the durability of the product.

I purchased the S7, within 3 days the plastic thingy that sits behind the brush came out of it's slot, can't get it back in, I've now had the S7 less than 3 weeks and it's telling me the sensors need cleaning. NOT only do I clean every part of the S7 after each use. This annoying message of the sensors need cleaning, cannot be gotten rid of. I have now cleaned them 5 times, I had my tenant clean them. Yet this message still persists. Not good when I paid over $1000 AUD for this thing. My $300 Eufy S11 picks up far more dog fur. The only reason I bought the S7 is because of the combined vacuuming and mopping. TBH it was a waste of money, I'm still waiting for a response from Roborock and have contacted the ACCC (Consumer Protection).

@CordlessVacuumGuide2 жыл бұрын
There's always a risk, not just with the S7 but also other robot vacuums. The brush roll wheels, and side brush generate friction and with it possible scratches. For the S7, I didn't notice anything obvious. There could be micro scratches but I think thatt's it. One way to minimize is keeping the wheels clean, especially the caater wheel since its solid plastic and debris will accumulate.

There's not much difference. Roborock's tend to be less aggressive with navigation it won't clear as a high as let's say a Roomba, but it can climb around a 0.7 inch threshold without issue.

Great review. I have tried many vacuum (of course not as many as you!) I have a question. When this robot is mopping and encounters a rug, you mentioned it will raise the mopping pad. Does this mean the pad is raised only so that the robot can climb onto the rug or does it raise the pad and will vacuum the run instead of trying to mop it? Meaning, will it mop the flat areas and vacuum the carpeted areas with user intervention?
@CordlessVacuumGuide3 жыл бұрын
Yes, when it goes over the rug, pad lifts and vacuum motor engages to clean the rug.

I have the S6 MaxV and was wondering is S7 brush was compatible with the S6 MaxV (you answered that, thanks) so next time I will buy these as replacement. Actually I don’t really use it for mopping so I think the S6 with A.I and the camera is the better choice for me at least. I hooe the S7 MaxV combines the A.I, camera and new mooping system, but most of all 2 spinning brushes on both sides!

Other reviewers say they "fit in" but they are smaller diameter and are not made for the metal bars that are present on the older models. So probably won't reach the floor and will wear and tear from the bars while spinning.

DEEP CLEAN MODE: Perhaps something you would like to add to your commentary which can help many people decide; I have 75x75cm (30x30”) ceramic glazed tiles and when using the deep mop function, it keeps getting stuck (wheelspin) because the floor is just to slippery due to the wet floor ending up in lifting the pad and proceeding further on, over and over. So, nice feature but not for an inherent slippery floor surface. I can imagine for e.g. PVC or vinyl it will perform the same (but no proof!)

You referenced an error code on the s7, I had an s6 max which ended up with a fatal error code (18) because the mopping introduced wet dirt for the actual vacuum. It lasted about a month before the internal fan was just completely jammed (yes I cleaned it regularly). I'm keen to see whether you saw similar behaviour in the s7 in lots of error codes, or maybe just running it in mop only would avoid this. What do you think?
@CordlessVacuumGuide3 жыл бұрын
If I remember correctly, I got the error 8 indicating wheels are stuck. Only issue I encountered is the robot stalling due to the sticky surface. These robots aren't built for heavy duty mopping or wet mopping, there's a big risk of liquid going into the motor.

Did you do any test on how well they handle doorsteps (between 2 rooms) - S5max vs. S6maxv? After watching this video, I decided to go with S7. Beforehand I tested an S5 Max to make sure it could handle doorsteps between rooms, and it did well! Unfortunately S7 performs really badly in terms of doorsteps! So I have to return it and replace it for either S5 max or S6maxv - but which will perform better?
@CordlessVacuumGuide3 жыл бұрын
What's the threshols of your doorsteps? These robots can typically handle up to 0.75". With the S7 I noticed Roborock toning down the aggressiveness so it avoids objects better. The added weight of the mopping assembly plays a factor since it's heavier. The S6 MaxV with its front facing camera may avoid these or may noy depending on how it approaches them.
@mariaoester17783 жыл бұрын
@@CordlessVacuumGuide they are about 2 cm. Roborock claims to handle 2 cm, but 7s does not handle them as well as the s5max. I didn't try the s6maxV, but thought the same - that it would be more 'cautious' due to the front facing camera.
