RoboRock S5 (S50) Mopping Demo

[@RobbieFitzAu]

There is a mop only function in the cleaning mode settings. I’ve found it works surprisingly well for general mopping. I’ll pray the floor beforehand in areas of extreme spills. I’m quite happy with mine. Thanks for the video. It helped me decide to get one.

[@corademeter9502]

Hello, what app do you use? I use myhome but i cannot find settings for the mopping anywhere. Thx!

[@zenzen7031]

Yes it does have a mopping option in the clean up mode. It is situated above the Quiet mode. The mopping pattern is different. It becomes diagonal to the room. Perhaps at the time of your review the app had not been updated. Have a look now though, you will see that the mopping mode is there. It asks you to put the mopping module into the machine in advance. I thought this may have meant an extra module to the app but it is not. It means just to put the mopping accessory into the roborock itself. It is a great function. Does my floors well in between big mopping sessions.

[@sheba9496]

Thank you very much. I just bought one last month, and was unsure of how to do it. Your demo made it so easy. You explained and demonstrated wonderfully …. thank you again.

My current Android version is 5.1.7 Current IOS version is 4.7.1 FYI no matter where you live, make sure your Region is set to "Mainland" for the most options. I'm in the U.S. but my region says Mainland. One more thing, mop mode turns the vacuum off and changes the scan pattern

What's the point in adding soap to the water? Once the water dries you're just gonna have a bunch of soap residue on your floor. The point of the mop is to catch any last bit of fine dust the regular vacuum can't get. Your best option would be to add a little bit of bleach to the water to disinfect your floors as it drives along.

[@EleniElina]

@@tiamatchapok6908 then you have to put 1. physical objects that can stop the vacuum from going on the carpet or 2. adjust it through the app so that the vacuum does not go to that place (there is such a possibility). Since the vacuum is not so 'smart' to understand carpets on its own try one of the above. Hope it will help!

[@BangEdhs]

Hi, if i have to relocate the vacuum to different floor (2nd or 3rd floor) and back to the original floor, will it do remapping? Or, can we 'save' the floor, so it wont waste time remapping?

Is it possible to add cleaning agent to the water?

You can't. Just use the quiet setting.

[@Deveshh]

@@augus255 I believe it lowers the "sucking" to a minimal, and just goes around wet-mopping the floor. You should only use it when you have the water tank and mop installed.

Is the xiaomi robot vacuum version 2 worth the 200-250 dollar price difference over the first version? I've seen the version 1 going for as low as 240 dollars with discount and the lowest version 2 robot I found for 480 dollars.

I don't think so, unless you really need the mopping functionality. The differences are: 1 - Mopping 2 - 200mpa additional suction power (not much) 3 - It can climb a little higher carpets now

[@CordlessVacuumGuide]

If you don't need the mopping feature then get the first gen Xiaomi. I'll do a comparison video between first and generation robots soon.

[@mrpdmasta]

Cordless Vacuum Guide but the 1st generation is terrible on thick carpet. Do you have any thick carpet for a comparison? The 2nd gen might do better

[@daniellim555]

On the mopping, is it only possible via the mobile app? Or could I just place the mopping module on and press the clean button on the Roborock? Hoping that it is really user friendly for those who are not familiar with mobile apps and such and just want to use the device via the buttons on the Roborock :) Thanks.

[@CordlessVacuumGuide]

Yup that is correct. You can only access the mopping function through the app.

[@daniellim555]

Oh, that's bad. Elderly with no mobile app will not be able to mop the floor just with the buttons. Thought since it is advise that mop should only be done with someone around, we should be able to control both vacuum and mop just with the buttons.

[@daniellim555]

Anyway I just saw it in front of me, it can mop and only mop when you attach the mopping module. It does not even vacuum. Guess that should be way. The mobile app is just for remote control, monitoring and scheduling. Mopping doesn't need the mobile app.

[@HanevE]

The mop is just an attachment.. the robot cannot control anything on the mop module. It will just clean as usual even though map is attached. There is mopping cleaning mode. Its only slows down the suction but im not sure whether got different cleaning pattern.. to avoid rugs, u can add no go zone for area that have carpet or use zoned cleanup, but first u need to enable map saving and run auto clean first to map ur home. once map is ready and saved, u can add the nogo zone or barrier tape (vir wall).

[@CordlessVacuumGuide]

[@pearljamsyd]

Questions: 1. Is the Vacuum going backwards when you mop? If so, that's smart, it's vacuuming just before it mops. 2. How does it work on areas with carpet and floors? Does it detect carpets automatically? If no, how can you avoid it from mopping the carpet? 3. Can you use floor-cleaning detergent in the water tank?

[@CordlessVacuumGuide]

1. No it actually goes in the same direction regardless if it's mopping or vacuuming. 2. Nope the mop will not detect carpet so if you're mopping an are with carpet, you'll have to physically block the path of the robot. Or use the app to tell the robot what area to mop - but that can be a bit tricky since the app only allows you to set areas in blocks. 3. I would not recommend that. What I would do is soak the mop in the cleaning detergent and put pure water in the tank.

[@ozanpamirkurt4319]

Second question was my main concern, thanks for clarification. It seems since I do have many carpets in my house, buying first generation would make better sense.

[@jirr9459]

1. In app exist mode just fot MOP. Maybe there is different pattern for cleaning. I never test it. I just use without MOP. 2. For avoiding carpet arrea but with mop you need use zone cleaning. I heard sometimes can RoboRock stack on the edge of carpet. 3. As I know, there is very small holes for making mop wet, but if you add some detergent, who knows if this watter will fully and good wet mop. And for info, 1st generation doesn't support zone cleaning. And in 2nd right now is MAP SAVING function (just in DEMO phase) where your map will be fixed and you can use virtual wall and no-zone zone, which will avoid thid area.

[@therockinghousewife4241]

If you chose the 'balanced' in cleaning mode in your app it detects when to do a deeper clean on carpets. I have found that when it detects carpet the mop seems to turn off, though it does leave the edge of the carpet as it detects it a little damp. This doesn't worry me as it's dry in a few minutes anyway and not damp enough to cause a vacuum problem. You should try it in a inconspicuous area first though.

So far so good with this vacuum. kzbin.infoUgkx8ISPQRRAfpAaX4msGjyodObTBnlj4T5g I was a little concerned to find it seems to be all plastic, but the reviews were good, so I'm hoping for the best. Very easy to assemble Recommened, and only attachments I've used so far work well, and are easy to use. Doing a good job on the new carpet in my bedrooms and stairs. Works well on the hardwood on my main floor too. Reasonable weight and cord length. I already knew from an earlier review that it wouldn't fit under furniture, but I can use my Eufy for that, so no problem - the high traffic areas that need a stronger suction was really what I bought this for. If it continues as it's started, it will be a good buy and well worth the money. I have had two Shark Rocket stick vacs in the past that are super easy to use, but the motors just don't last well, even with scrupulous cleaning of the filters. I'm hoping for better with this Bissell.
