Roborock S5 Max Mopping Test

[@donka80]

Few advice for the mop mode. Wet the mop pad before use. The dry mop need a few minutes to get wet and along this time its not that efficient. You can use alcohol based cleaner in the water tank. No chemicals only alcohol with one drop aroma oil, lemon for example. I use filtered water (if its possible dont use regular water, use cleaned or distilled water) mixed with a litte isopropyl alcohol (around 1-5%) and one drop lemon essential oil. This safe to use in the plastic water tank, and not damaged the water pump but significantly increased the mopping efficiency and have nice smell on the floor. I use my s5 max like this since a few months now and i see the difference already. Also the alcohol mixture prevent the water tank and the pump to get smell bad. The water can stay in the tank even for many days, and did not get stagnant water smell. Extra the alcohol can help to keep the water pump walve clean. Just make sure you dont use too many alcohol. The alcohol concentration would be 5% at max.

[@SmartRobotReviews]

Great! Many people asking about adding a detergent so your advice is useful, thank you!

Thanks for the tip! How do you dilute the alcohol to 1-5%?

[@21zit]

I've only been using our S5 for a week🌼 and we've been very happy with it. We've only used it for sweeping/vacuuming floors. The first time it went through the house, the dust bin was full. It went under the sofa and shelves where we normally don't sweep. We cant believe how much it cleaned with just using the low setting (balance). You can actually notice our hard floor a little shinier.

[@SmartRobotReviews]

Ugh mine did get have a half-full dust collector after every cleaning. Since I got a cat I do understand why most people need to start the robot twice a day and I always use mopping too. Glad your experience with a Roborock is smooth tho.

[@SmartRobotReviews]

I like that it doesn't get as dirty or at least is easier to clean (the silicone one)

[@jamie.andrews]

Why does the pad not get dirty on the outside edges? Is this the limits of the water spray? That appears like it could be a weakness of the machine if it can only clean towards the center. I am thinking about reviewing the iLife W400. Great video as always!

[@SmartRobotReviews]

Thank you. Roborock robots have this kind of mopping pad so it does not get wet on the outside edges. This is the limits of the pad itself but you can get one of the disposable wipes that come with the Roborock S6 in the box if you want all of it to get wet. I am not a big fan of the ILIFE W400, it can't cross thresholds, do not get back to the dock automatically, it also leaks so you have to remove the mopping attachments right after mopping...

[@jamie.andrews]

@@SmartRobotReviews Good to know your thoughts on the W400. I wish Roborock would come out with a dedicated mopper. I have mostly carpet today so I along with many other people may not need an advanced mopper like the M6.

Unfortunately, it can't remove some old stubborn stains or oil stains. It's just dragging a wet cloth across the room. Yet, it's a good addition to the manual mopping, and I use the mopping function every time I run cleaning. Coffee stains, like in the video, is an easy task. Some stains hard to remove even by hands with a lot of effort, so this robot is good to keep the floor clean, but from time to time, I still mop my floors manually.

Thanks..Roborock S5 max or Xiaomi vacuum mop pro ? Advantages and disadvastages ?

[@SmartRobotReviews]

The Roborock has a larger battery and longer runtime so it's suitable for bigger houses. If you have carpets, I would highly recommend getting the S5 Max, it shows much better performance on carpets. As a long-haired human being, I also prefer the cleaning brush of the S5 Max with detachable tips. I also like the customizable cleaning settings for each room in the S5 Max including separate cleaning modes and water output for each room. I would say the Mop P might be slightly better at mopping (because of its Y-shaped mopping path) but not that much as if you would notice in real life. The Roborock is also better at picking up stuff on both surfaces (based on my experience with both). And I can't stop saying about Roborock customer support. Every time I contacted them, I got a response in a few hours. Unlike Xiaomi, Roborock releases new firmware updates with bug fixes or new features pretty often. Overall, the S5 Max feels like a finished product while the Mop P has some small design flaws (like a leaking water tank) and software/firmware bugs. If I had to choose I would go for the Roborock but the Xiaomi Mop P is okay too if you are not ready to spend more for the more expensive S5 Max.

Roborock does not recommend adding any detergent since the water pump and water filters may be clogged by the detergent. I heard a lot that some people use a bit of detergent and it works without any problem, but you do it on your own risk.

[@De132an]

Comparing the S5 Max to the S6, do both do an equal job in mop mode or is one better than the other? If equal is it just a matter of water tank size which allows the Max to mop more space with less frequent fill ups?

[@SmartRobotReviews]

The S5 Max is better at some things, no-mop zones, customized mopping settings for each room, etc. And yes, when it comes to mopping, it does a better job because of the new design of the water tank and the way it supplies water to the mopping cloth. The S6 has a water tank that drags the mop around and has a switch to choose water dripping. It also does a good job but the S5 Max is better in terms of mopping anyway, maybe one of the best mopping & sweeping robots on the market. The mopping pad has a gap thanks to which it provides closer pressure to the floor ensuring better cleaning results. And the size of the water tank matters as well, now it covers a bigger hard floor area before you need to refill the container again. The Roborock S6 is quieter and has a nicer-looking charging dock with adjustable cord length.

Hello thanks for the review on mopping. I have the s5 max and even with ok saturated with water, it moos with a large space in the middle not cleaning the entire floor. Only way to solve that is run it 2-3 more in the same areas it seems. However when I watch the reviews it appears it’s one run and covering the whole area that it runs through the first time. Doesn’t seem as if the air intake or water outlet is clogged because I tested it. Also I only used filter water. Any ideas? I’ve contacted support and don’t get much information to remedy. TIA

Yeah, if you have only low pile rugs and you don't need the mopping function, the S4 should be a good choice. Just make sure you don't have high door thresholds (higher than 1.5 cm) since the S4 has a bit lower climbing ability than the S5.

The second option but its needs more work, use hard soap and file down a bit to the mop fabric top layer and attach like this to the mop pad. Then use clean water for the tank. Now when the water flow to the mop fabric the soap slowly dissolve. If you use too many soap the floor will be slippery, so i prefer the alcohol mixture method. :)

Not exactly. Currently, the Roborock S5 Max stores three backup maps (current, latest, and one with no-go zones) but that's not a true multi mapping. You still can use it in a 3 floor house, but the robot will rebuild the map every time you move it to another floor. There is a workaround for two floors, but I've never tried it. Roborock promised an update with the full multi mapping, but so far we don't know when it will be released. Edit: Roborock already released an update for the S5 Max with full multi-mapping support.

Thanks! It will never cross the carpet if you set no-mop zones in the app. It can detect carpets, but this function only works to increase suction on the carpet, but it doesn't create the no-mop zones automatically, you should set it manually. If you set the no-mop zone and there is no way to reach the other floor side without crossing the carpet, the robot will ignore that area.

[@magikat7]

Smart Robot Reviews Thanks! It sucks that once the mop feature is on, it can't retract the mop into itself to allow it cross non-moppable zones. That would be a totally hands free feature 🤞🏼

[@SmartRobotReviews]

Yeah, it would be a nice feature to have. I've seen only one robot vacuum which can do that - Veniibot Venii N1.

[@donka80]

It will cross eventually. The mopping will be disabled, so the water not flow any longer. Then its try to around the no mop zone. If its cannot be possible its just run around for a few minutes. If the room space big enough the mop pad dry for a bit. Then it will cross the carpet. This algorythm is not perfect, so sometimes just stop and says unable to reach the target. With the right sequence this can work. Make sure you use vacuum only mode for that room where the carpet is. Just use custom modes for the rooms, and you can disable the mop for specific rooms. I think this function is still in active developement since far not perfect. But its something :) I rearrange some of my room and make passage for the robot for safely avoid the carpets. I also find out a great method how to reveal the carpet area in the map for helping select the no mop zone. Use heavy books around the carpet corners. Place one book on each bracket. The robot will be hit those books and around it, so it will be revealed on the map as a black dot or (if its a bigger book) looks like a furniture. Then you can easily draw the no mop zones use these helpers :)

S7 MaxV and MaxV Ultra take that into account I believe

what is the best smart vacuum cleaner ...because I need to order before the add value in my country please 😢!!

[@SmartRobotReviews]

I can't say which one is the best. Each robot is made for specific needs so it all depends on what you want, your surface, cleaning ability etc. The Roborock S5 Max is the best value for the price in my opinion.

[@Omer51313]

Very clear and helpful introduction video, thank you. I cannot decide between this one and vacuum mop pro (STYJ02YM), a 150 € difference on S5 max side, which one do you recommend?

[@SmartRobotReviews]

I am currently working on a Mop Pro vs S5 Max comparison and I can tell that the Mop Pro does not do well on carpets. On hard floor, it is amazingly good especially at picking up heavy debris like sand, but on carpets the S5 Max shines.

Meglio s5 max o s6?

[@SmartRobotReviews]

I would recommend the S5 Max.

[@_xdeck_7163]

@@SmartRobotReviews why?

[@SmartRobotReviews]

Because the S5 Max has much better mopping with a larger water tank, electronic water output control, and the ability to set different mopping modes for each room. But if you don't need the mopping function, take a look at the newest Roborock S4 Max, it is almost the same as the S6 but doesn't have the mopping function and costs less than the S6.

Does the roborock s5 max leave steaks/tire marks. Have you considered adding a very small amount of a diluted cleaning solution such as Bona to the tank? I owned the Braava m6 and couldn’t STAND IT! My floor is light luxury vinyl plank and shows streaks very easily, but my floor was COVERED in streaks and tire marks. It was awful, so I returned it. I’ve been looking at the roborock s5 max. I own a roomba 980 that works just fine, but I would obviously use the roborock s5 max to vacuum. But my biggest concern is the mopping function

[@SmartRobotReviews]

I haven't noticed any steaks/tire marks on my laminate floors when tested the robot, but I think it depends on the floor type. Probably, it may be noticeable on glossy floors. Never tried to use any cleaning solutions since I rarely use the mopping function. Roborock doesn't recommend to use any cleaning solutions with their products but I know that a lot of users add some detergents to the water tank and don't have any issues with it. Check this post on Reddit: www.reddit.com/r/Roborock/comments/eiwozt/s5_mopping_vs_detergent/

[@donka80]

The brava run over the mopped part so the tire can leave marks. But this vacuum mopping pad have at the rear side, so the tire not run over it. I was wondering why is the brava desing like this.

[@mrp_27]

It doesn't work on matte floors. It doesn't remove a single stain.

[@donka80]

In my house i have glossy tile, not varnished wooden floor and carpet. This vacuum machine do a good job on every floor type. I use the maximum water amount on each room, except where the carpet is of course :)

Hi, loved your most recent video about Roborock S6 . Saw in the description that you recommended S5 Max as well. So here I am, quick question though, does S5 max slip on glossy tiles? Saw other robots had that problem in navigating through slippery surfaces. Thanks !

Glad you liked the video! I don't have glossy tiles to test it so can't say for sure. But I've never heard from other users about such problems with the Roborock S5 Max.

Seems more like a cute toy than something actually usable. Anyone who's ever mopped a room before knows that while you mop you need to constantly rinse the mop in a bucket. Just imagine if you just kept wetting the mop without cleaning it as you moved around, that's just gross and totally unhygienic. Imagine if you actually used this thing to clean up a coffee spill. It would spread that coffee spill all around your tiles or floor. Depending on your floor this might totally ruin it. If you have floors that are sensitive to PH changes such as real wood floors. Then there's the minuscule reservoir size and it doesn't automatically refill itself. By the time you've finished faffing around with it, at some point you're going to wonder why you got suckered into buying a novelty item when your house is still in need of actual mopping.

Yet another week without a patch for the hideous bugs that slipped through on the V2 Pro 4 months ago. I've been a huge Xiaomi supporter. Now I discourage everyone from buying Xiaomi products. With such poor development support, anything that you buy, can be broken by incompetent developers shortly thereafter. Wish I could ask for my money back and buy a vacuum robot somewhere else!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

[@SmartRobotReviews]

I agree with you about the issues with the Viomi V2 Pro and Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum Mop P. Even small firmware and software bugs are not fixed for months in these models. But regarding the Roborock S5 Max, it is not a Xiaomi product and it is well supported in terms of software and firmware updates. Roborock is an independent company with its own brand and customer support. I recommend choosing Roborock over Xiaomi if you want a high-quality product with good support.
