Roborock S7+ Bag or Bagless - US Version Auto Empty Dock

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 พ.ค. 2024
- When Roborock released the Auto Empty Dock for the S7 in 2021 there was a lot of backlash because Roborock did not give the US a bagless option. To makes things worse other countries had the option between bagless or a bagged dock. Well now Roborock has released the bagless canister as an add-on for the US market. I have tested both for several months and I will tell you the pros and cons for each.

I thank you for your support!
only youtuber that really showed this hands on and not just talking about it. Same thing when you did on RR, a comparison between the old brush roller and the new one that was more dense. And many other examples. You are unique, keep it like that :)
Ariel thanks so much for the positive feedback! It really helps a good bit. Take care!
I bought the bagless bin the moment I saw you post it was released. I have NO regrets! We have three dogs and a 2200 sqft home. The bags filled up way too quick for me to justify the cost of constantly replacing them. I definitely didn’t make it 8 weeks with the bags. More like 2-3 weeks. I empty the bin in our garage trash can. We also have air purifiers in the home so no worries on extra particles in the air from dumping. Appreciate your videos!
*ETA I did have issues with blockages from the dog hair when using the bag system. It would get stuck between the dock and bin/bag as well as at the bottom of the bin. That hasn’t happened since using the bagless bin.
Glad to know it is working better for you! Some people may be able to get 8 weeks out of a bag and without pets. I am just glad we finally have options! Thanks for watching!
I had the same problem with the dog hair. So I go to the settings and do a “empty every cycle” and I have the auto empty set to MAX. This has kept my dock almost clog free on the base. Hope this helps. The s7 I have been enjoying for about 3 weeks.
I have to say as soon as I heard the 8 weeks I was thinking, there's no way a bag would last 8 weeks in our house (I have pets as well). It's a shame they don't make the docks with the fluids for the mop version with the bagless as well.
I have both versions now and am testing the bagless right now. The bagged is excellent and convenient. My wife is asthmatic and a lack of contact with the debris in the filter seems to be a plus but the bagless can simply be emptied by me outside into the can and then rinsed. Both excellent options. The bagless system is very close to the Hoover Wind Tunnel system in stand up vacuums. I like both of the Roborock options.
Yea the right thing is to have options and I am glad Roborock has given us 2. The main thing with the bagless is you have to clean the filter so maybe Roborock should allow us to buy an extra cone filter so we can swap them put while one is drying.
I am happy for the bagless option because it is much more earth friendly than the addition of bags to the landfill a few times a year. Something that I think should be mentioned and/or considered as well.
That is a very good point and not one I had thought of. Thanks!
@@jamie.andrews also want to just let you know how much I have enjoyed so many of your reviews.
@@tracyfarrell268 Thanks much!
You have to factor in the environmental impact of the wipes and detergent used to clean out the bagless bin and cyclone too though.
@@genjutsu123 not if you don't use wipes nor detergent. Just water and a reusable cloth. Also eco friendly detergents exist.
For me the bagged version is a must. I hate all that dust and you showed a good example of how it empties and spreads the dust everywhere.
I agree
I personally went back to a bag system on it. Many people feel different than us and that could be because of a very large home with long haired pets so it really does come down to personal preference.
Personally I want to get the roborock s7 maxv plus and one thing I miss from my shark iq self empty is the bag less bin because it did great and right now I have a smell coming out of my deebot n8+ when it empties
@@coltonsvacuumcollection That smell is likely due to the lack of a good hepa filter. The S7 auto empty dock does not smell at all.
I saw your B&D unvoxing video you won. Good job buddy!
@@jamie.andrews thank you I want to get the roborock s7 maxv right when it comes out and I want to do a live stream unboxing on it
From one content creator to another, this was a fantastic comparison video. You presented the information very well, and I really appreciate how hands-on you are on camera. I learned everything I need to know about both options via this video, thank you. Also, just a side note, you have an incredible speaking voice.
Thanks! I really appreciate the positive feedback!
@@jamie.andrews 👍
Thank you so much for this video! I was so unsure about which version I should go for, but your video helped me figure it out. Again, thank you for the great explanation! :)
Thanks Mary! Glad I could help!
I changed the bag for the first time on my S7+ and it was so clean and easy. I really like the bag. Sort of surprised me because all my other vacuums are bagless and I was not a fan of the bag at first.
Thanks you, concise, quick and too the point, appreciated. This along with the comments has been most informative - I was planning on the bagless but rethinking now, bagged does seem better for cleanliness and convenience. The only downside is I have to be organised with ordering bags...
Fantastic that Roborock gave us both alternatives!
I'm from Europe but i have to say that your review was perfect!
Thanks
Thanks so very much!
Great review! I think on top of all advantages of the bagged version is the fact that the bagless version has a clear plastic and if your dust station is not hidden away, you're going to look at the unpleasant-looking dust in the plastic tube all the time.
That is a good point and one I have not considered or heard before. Thanks for sharing!
God damn this is a good video. Thank you sir, you helped me out a lot!
Thanks a bunch!
Thank you,very informative!
You are welcome!
Mate… you are a bloody lifesaver.. thanks from an Australian Luddite
Hello from the USA! Glad to help!
Great video! Thanks again. I have the bag and happy now I did not get the bagless...
Thanks Delores
Thank you for an excellent concise review. Its a shame the makers of Roborock don't make the Bagless Plastic Tube Opaque or Frosted in the front and clear at the back to hide the contents before it is emptied though because I pay $13 per bag (plus delivery fee) which doesn't take long to fill when owning a German Shepherd.
Great review. My default assumption is that if I got the dock, I would want the bagless but the point of the extra filtration and the minimal cost of the bags kicked me the other way.
I am back to using bags since they keep everything clean.
thank you for doing this comparison! i have severe allergy against pollen of any kind, so the bag version it is :) I don't have any pets either so the bags should last for a while.
Thanks for watching!
i have an issue with my auto empty dock where long hair gets stuck in the S7 filter, so i have to manually clean "hair balls" integrated with dust from the filter . so it seems my dock isn't able to clean the filter much. is this normal?
also, actual clean dust bin wise, did you find any difference between using the bagless and the bag system? i read somewhere on Roborock forums that using the bagless system provides a bit more vacuum power to the dock - don't think that's true though.
My dock always cleans my internal S7 filter.
I have also heard the bagless canister provides more power especially with hair and reducing clogs, but I have not found this in my testing since I don't have the issues with either.
How is odor when you’re leaving all that dust in the bag for weeks to months? Do you end up with that old vacuum cleaner smell if you’re running the bagged version?
No not at all. It is sealed off and the dock has extra filtration that helps reduce smells.
Do the bags also fit in the bagless version if you remove filter?
No.
I just bought this and the auto empty dock didnt empty all the fur (we have cats), even though on Max and run it manually 3x 😢 any ideas why?
Did you clean you floors with a big vacuum first? This is very common when people introduce a robot vacuum in the enviroment for the first time. The robot will get places in your home that you don't normally reach so performing a vaccum first helps with this as it reduces the load some. After it runs several more times over time it will no longer be a problem, but if it is do room cleanings instead to break it up and don't let the dustbin get so full.
will it fit both S7+ and S7 dock?
There is only one dock for the S7. The S7+ is the name for the S7 plus this dock.
ye ye ok you convince me! bag it is!
thanks.
The price solves this for me then 🤔 while we have no pets and just dust mainly, getting a pile of cheap bags wins.
Bags seems like the way to go. way more cleaning u have to do with bagless
This is true!
I have 4 cats. One bag only last me 10 days
Oh wow! Are they all long hair cats? I have 3 short hair cats myself and a bag last me around 6 weeks or so.
@@jamie.andrews yea 3 is long and one is short hair
Yikes. Definitely just sticking with bags. Amazon even has cheaper options. Around 20 dollars for 10.
bagless all the way..... thanks for the video!
Bagless all day
The bags are a rip off
It is sold out 🥲
Yep I see that. Maybe ebay or Aliexpress?
