- The Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra is finally here, and in this video I’ll be taking a deep dive into many of the features of the brand new S7 MaxV robot vacuum, along with the Ultra Empty Wash Fill dock.
With the introduction of Reactive AI 2.0 obstacle avoidance, increased suction power and VibraRise mopping system, the S7 MaxV is the flagship robot vacuum from Roborock. And the newly introduced Empty Wash Fill Dock takes robot cleaning automation to a whole new level.
I test out it's vacuum and mopping performance, the Reactive AI 2.0 obstacle avoidance, along with all new Empty Wash Fill Dock, with automatic emptying, automatic mop washing and water tank refill. It's seriously impressive!

Very good and thorough review, thanks for making this!
I was able to score an S7 Max V Ultra for about 750$ from Amazon. Was listed as "USED" but it was BRAND NEW! still factory sealed!
Loving this thing! I can see my floor again. No more sweeping 3 times a day lol.
Still happy 6 months later? Trying to decide which one I'm going to buy. Thanks
Yeb plz reply
@@Jacen777 YEP! I still love it and it gets used multiple times a day. I convinced a family member to purchase one and she loves it too!
I would recommend purchasing a maintenance kit. They sell them on amazon with extra cleaning pads, etc. I keep 4 pads in constant rotation to optimize the moping performance. I also bought a few bottles of the mop water cleaning solution from RoboRock. I was sure how long the bottles would last but one bottle has lasted over 2 months and that's mopping 2-3 times a week and using the recommended dilutions. I think the floor comes out a little cleaner (especially when using 2 or 3x passes) and the water isn't as smelly when I dump it.
Overall, this unit is a Win!
@@abdulallahalharbi7825 Still love it
Great review, very informative. Helped persuade me in this purchase, thank you!
One of the best and most informative reviews I've seen. I've been researching these devices for a few days. Currently, leaning toward the RoboRock S8 MaxV Ultra. Still researching... Thanks!
Thanks Jeff! I've actually just published my full review on the S8 Pro Ultra too. Another video to add to your research list!
Totally agree. 😊
My first roomba was the 500 series. I used it for maybe a year, and decided it was a gimmick and no easier than vacuuming myself. I figured robot vacuums were a fad that would never catch on. It needed way too much manual intervention.
In 2019 I bought an I7+. Now that runs automatically thrice weekly and if I make a mess I ask Alexa to have it do a spot clean. I have been using it for 3 years. I just replaced all of it's brushes and filters and cleaned it's wheels and contacts. It's running like new still. I never vacuum any more. It looks to get trapped under one chair I have, but other than that, needs no manual intervention. I figured this was the epitome of robot vacuums.
Now it's amazing to see how far we've come in 3 years.
Put thick felt pads underneath the legs of that chair? Maybe that small elevation makes it that your robovac won't get stuck.
I think the 500 series is not just a gimmick. It takes away the boring task of cleaning large empty areas of your apartment. For me it is worth it compared with the attention that needs to be given to clean the Roomba. You can also let it run more often than you would ever bother vacuum cleaning yourself.
Great video! I love what you do and hope your channel grows bigger.
I appreciate that! Thanks for your support!
excellent review! thank you
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your comment!
Very good review so far I have seen. Thank you for your video
Thanks for watching!
Can't wait until you test the Ecovacs X1 OMNI mopping vs. the Roborock s7 MaxV Ultra. Great video review.
The Omni looks like a great machine, but my main concern is their after sales service. I have sent them 5 emails, asking questions, and they have not responded to one. I have sent messages through Facebook as well. If they won't answer questions to a potential buyer, what will they be like if you have an issue with the robot????
@@DS-xw3qp I see your point, however, Ecovacs just replaced my t8+ but the replacement has many problems. I am again communicating with Ecovacs about the problems I am having and will see what they do about it.
Very good video clean and neat and very informative.. I am going to buy this after swing this video
Great video! Thank you
Now it just needs a water supply line hookup; drain hookup; and a central vacuum hookup so you only have to clean the pad.
They are getting as indipendent as possible. It's crazy like these vacuums were born like 20 more years ago and has seen more upgrades in the last 6 years alone than all the previous years combined.
There is a Roborock G10S model currently only available in China that connects to mains water and plumbing drain, so perhaps that will be in the next model available in the rest of the world!
@@iamjoshstunell You mean that it autofills the water tank from the household plumbing?
Yep! And also has a heater to dry the mop pad after use. You can see the plumbing shown in this video at around the 1:40 mark - th-cam.com/video/t-97TRyYZUA/w-d-xo.html
I'd rather stick with distilled water to avoid lime damage.
What I hoped for was a bagless dust bin.
you had me at 'extreme suction'
Awesome video, thanks
Wowwww the S7maxV is finally here!! It's appearance reminds me of transformer cars! Isn't it cool? The mop washing and auto filling feature are life-changing ideas! It will really save me from the hassles of changing, washing the mop pad, filling water tank.. At a press of the button, the ultra will handle everything! Really impressed!!
It's been such a great machine for me here. I really love how little effort I need to put into maintaining clean floors, and a clean robot!
Thanks for the review Josh. I’m having trouble choosing a model to suit me. I’ve had a couple of different robot vacuums in the past and want to up grade to a vacuum/mop. I’m concerned about the noise of the emptying and cleaning at dock. (How loud is it and how long does it take.).
As we’re retired and home most of the time I have not set a schedule in the past. Opting to manually turn it on when we go out. That arrangement is ok but I’d really prefer a schedule and also I want to send to specific places to spot clean. What’s your thoughts please?
Great machine, would it cope with rugs that have tassels? Thanks
Just ordered, cant wait ;-))
How is it? Mines is coming in 6 days 😊
Thank you for your review. I have never had one of the robot vacuum before so am researching to buy one. When it vacuum on a thick carpet, does it fluff up the carpet fiber like when vacuuming with a regular vacuum? Understood that these things do not have the same suction power as a regular carpet cleaner.
Finally a good review! I would not have smeared the cloth with a pure spilled product but I would have done a test after a normal wash. Do not forget, however, that for washing and vacuuming there is a x2 or a x3 that crosses, making cleaning much more thorough.
Still great test !!
Thanks for watching! The soy sauce on the mop pad was definitely more of an extreme test, in real world use the mop pad never looks quite that dirty. I agree, the x2 or x3 cross does a fantastic job, I like that the second pass goes the other direction too.
On the Ultra,can you decide to use only vacuum and the mop, unattended? Like fill up tank and say: vacuum 3 times per week and mop once every 2 weeks?
What is the dimensions (including height) of the Ultra Empty Wash Fill dock?
Great in depth review. Vacuum wars seems to have changed to a more superficial format so it was great to find your channel, Great production quality, good narration, and you hit all the questions I would have had. Bravo! Subscribed!
Welcome aboard! I really appreciate the feedback!
Yeah seriously sick of all these "reviews" that might as well be an ad because they just list off features without critiquing anything or doing any serious tests!
Hi,
How much extra space is needed on each side of the dock? I already heard that it needs an additional 0.5m (I think it's 19.68in) on each side!
Is this true?
Thanks
Thank you for the video, Josh. Typically, bathroom floors are somewhat lower than the other floors, to prevent any water spill from the bathroom (with a drain as per technical building codes in most countries) reaching the rest of the house. I would like to know if the S7 MaxV can deal with doorsteps at all, and if so - what are the limitations?
Good review like the others I've viewed. However, I haven't seen any reviews stating if it's worth the $$ vs the normal MaxV or even the MaxV Plus. Is this thing worth ~$2500 AUD vs $1500 for MaxV plus
Does the app remind you on when to empty the dustbag or refill the water tank?
Did the re-useable bags ever turn up?
Asking because I'm prospectively awaiting the S8 Pro Ultra ...
hi there,
can i do without the detergent? can it be used with water only?
Josh I wanted to buy the robot separately first then come back and but the dock but RoboRock oddly enough does not support this. How did you do it?
How did you go about making that ramp? Or did you buy it somewhere?
So what happens when the vac misses dog hair and then starts moping? how does the dock clean doghair off a wet mop?
Would definitely save up for this. Thanks for the vid. Now until my pocket is ready, I would really like to know if its roller brush, which I saw can be bought as separate accessory, would fit into the S5 Max?
Probably cause the Q5+ has the same brush as the S5 Max and it can swap the brush too
How does it, without the dock, compare to the s7 in terms of vacuuming and mopping effectiveness :)
Next up, the Roborock Premium lineup, the S10 Lux, if features the following modes for your lifestyle: Normal, Ultra Clean, Lazy, and Unconscious.
How do you find S7 MaxV compared to the S7? Is it worth the money? I am talking about without any dock , the robot alone. Did u notice significant difference in the cleaning performance due to the higher suction power? I am wondering between the two, should I pay the extra cash for the camera and the higher suction power.
We have three cats and long hair. Would those concerns be an issue for the machine and/or brushes?
I just received the S7 maxv ultra for Christmas! I'm scared of it! I haven't mapped my room yet. But would like to tell it not to get close to my fireplace how do I make it avoid that area
Hello there. Is it possible to use the robot manually? No app?
Hi does anyone know where I can find the app? The QR codes that came with my unit don't work and the app from apple app store doesn't have this model available for manual installation.
Can I use detergent with the water? I just bought the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra and I cannot find anywhere that tells me that I can use detergent.
Hi Josh, thanks for the video. Quick question: Is the empty wash fill dock compatible with the S7?
Unfortunately not, the rear end of the S7 MaxV is slightly different to allow for the water fill port, and the front is slightly different to allow for the charging contacts at the front, instead of underneath the vacuum.
Hi,
Is this worth a buy?
I have an s5 that constantly gets it's roller tangled in my golden retrievers shed hair, and I'm having to clean the filter after every cleaning. How effective is this unit at staying tangle free, and does the dock effectively clean the filter as well as emptying the bin?
Hi Mike, the roller brush design is different on the S7 MaxV compared to the S5. It's designed to be less prone to tangles than the older brush design, but I don't have any pets to test it on. The dock does a great job at clearing out the bin, and the filter is almost spotless after it runs.
Hopefully someone can chime in here with their experience using it with pet hair for you.
I love the S7 MaxV Ultra；when it will be released? Can’t wait to buy it.
Hi Marcia, the S7MaxV Ultra will be released in the US on May 2nd. I'm not sure when in other parts of the world.
Hey Josh, if you get it to do a schedule after midnight, can you make it not empty the dust bin or water filter until day time or will it simply just do it when it gets back to dock? Im hoping to do schedules past midnight but hope not to wake the kids if its loud.
I've done a test on this, and once you set the 'Do Not Disturb' hours, the robot will do the clean, but won't empty the bin or clean the mop, just return to the dock and charge after a clean. You will need to manually tell it to empty the dust bin/clean the mop the following day though. Or you could get around this by doing your midnight clean, and then during waking hours, do a small zone clean, and after that it will go back and empty/clean itself I would think.
I read on forums that this company does not honor warranty claims, have you heard that?
Also does ultra dock re-wet the mop during the autowash? I noticed with S7 that after every 8-10 min, manual rinse is required to re-wet the mop to avoid streaking as the water discharged from the nozzle is more concentrated in middle of the mop. Did you notice any such streaking during the test?
It does! You can even adjust the frequency in which it'll go back to the station and re-wet it.
As Yannick said, the dock will re-wet the mop during cleaning. You can set a time interval from every 10 minutes to 50 minutes, in 5 minute increments that the robot will head back for a mop clean. Or you can also set the mop to be washed in between rooms, which is how I have it set. So it'll vac and mop my kitchen, return to the dock, clean the mop, and the head to vac and mop the bathroom with a cleaned wet mop.
I've not noticed any streaking during my use, but I don't have a lot of hard floors to mop to give it a thorough test over a bigger surface area.
If you set the mop wash frequency to every 10 minutes, I think it will eliminate the manual rinsing you are finding you need to do with the S7.
@@iamjoshstunell Does the ultra dock have the feature of only re-wetting the mop? Or it will perform auto clean and re-wet both?
Any plans for a follow up long term use video? I just saw it’s going to be on sale for Black Friday.
It’s on sale!! 🎉 Trying to decide 😅
@@SonyaSunny yep I bought it. Got itv yesterday. Major step up from my S6
I have a few sliding doors with very low plinth. During quick mapping the robot wants to go outside, because there is no clearly wall. It stays drive back and forward by the window to get out or over the plinth. Because it thinks there is another space that belongs to the house. What can I do?
Hi Nicole, if you can block the exit while performing the quick map so the robot can complete the process. Then once the map has been created, add an invisible wall on the map to keep the robot inside. I have 3x sliding glass doors and have done similar to ensure it stays inside!
Hello. Quick question: Do you need to carry your base / dock everytime you clean upstairs for a two floors house? Or how is this working? Thank you!
I have the same question
@@sofiavieira5989 answer: you don't. The robot will return to the starting point when finishes cleaning. The only problem you have is the inability to wash the mop itself. Quite smart little thing, we are very impressed with the acquisition.
How many water discharge nozzles are there on S7Max? And does it evenly distribute the water to mop pad?
Just the one water nozzle on the S7MaxV. From my testing on tiles here it's worked well at keeping the mop pad damp. But also I have set the robot to head back to the dock between rooms to keep the pad clean and damp too.
I don't seem to find it, I looked everywhere and it is unavailable!
The S7 MaxV Plus may be the good choice for me. I don't have any carpet in my home except the small rug. And I love my lovely cat-Mary. I hope it will auto empty dirt and fur effectively.
Hi Gina the S7MaxV Plus is a good choice. If you have a lot of hard floors, maybe the Ultra combo could be beneficial for the mop washing and water refilling ability too? Which ever one you choose, I hope Mary likes it!
I think if the robot home got cover on the top. It will be more nice looking.
Are you required to create an online account?
Josh, how did you get the room sequence option? I cannot find that in my app. I even paused the video to look exactly where you brought it up. The sequence option is missing. Are you using the mi home app or the Roborock app? I’m using the Roborock one.
Hey mate what country are you in? It seems like this option is actually excluded for the US market. I read something about it being a patent issue. A potential work around is to create a routine where you can set it to clean rooms in specific order. The downside to that is at the moment I think it will return to the dock in between each step of the routine.
@@iamjoshstunell ahhh I’m in the US. I guess that would explain it. Thanks for replying back I appreciate it.
It probably fails with really low profile cables. I have never in my life seen a cable on the ground that wasn't stretched out. Think cables from wall adaptors. Can it avoid cables behind say a tv cabinet?
I think it needs some sort of 3 dimensions and/or contrast to the object for it to be recognised. A flat cable on the carpet could quite easily be mistaken as a pattern on a carpet I guess. If you find it gets tripped up on cables behind your TV cabinet, you could set a no-go zone if needed. I've had 3 firmware updates since getting the S7 MaxV and each one has mentioned about enhancing object recognition, so it's constantly being improved too.
How does this react to towels on the floor? (I like to leave beach towels down for dog paws at the back door).
Good question, I haven't tried this, but I think it would treat it like carpet. But being a loose towel, its likely to trip the robot up a bit too. I think the best bet would be to just set a no-go zone around where you place the towel to prevent it trapping the robot. This might mean it's not as effective at cleaning all the paw prints off your floor near your back door though too, so a bit of a tradeoff.
You should probably also tell about some of the glaring faults, like you cant program the vacum without internet connection, a phone, gps location,a forced online account and a forced low security password both on account and your wifi.
You also have to accept of your info being shared freely with other companies (remember the vacum records video when ever it is used).
And even in 2.4ghz it don't work with a MASSIVE amount of routers.
You should do the roomba j7.
I’d like to see your tests with that robot, on sale for $400 rn
i have the j7 plus, its ridiculous. Very impressed
@@brandon9161 same. I was thinking of getting the roborock s7 max over the j7 but decided for the j7. Amazing cleaning power mainly due to the Patented dual brush design. I believe when iRobot can incorporate LiDAR and possibly even a Mop like the roborock, iRobot will be the leader. You can’t argue with its brushes and double pass dirt detect technology
$400 is a good deal! I'm yet to try out any Roombas, but would be happy to take a look if they send one my way! It seems every major manufacturer has a slightly different strength to the others. We just need a someone to combine the best features of all brands now!
I just got the Roomba j7. I paid full price though
Love it! 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
I am returning my Ecovacs Deebot X1 Omni because I literally spent 2 days trying to extend a map by opening doors of rooms that were not initially mapped. I could not do it even though the documentation says that you can.
Before I buy a Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra, can someone confirm that it is possible to extend an existing map by opening the door to a room that was not open during the initial mapping? THANKS.
Hey Dale, this should be possible. I've noticed everytime the S7 MaxV performs a clean, the map will be updated slightly depending on what it finds. Doors open sometimes, closed others, and furniture moved around too. If it doesn't automatically find the room that was previously closed, you can always remote control the vacuum to go there and then it will map it out for you.
How is this when it comes to doorsteps? I have doorsteps that are a bit taller than I would want them in some rooms, how tall doorsteps is this able to climb?
Have a look at this video here for a way to allow the robot to get over some doorstops - th-cam.com/video/xu2VfozcUoM/w-d-xo.html
I've seen on Amazon some commercially available ramps for the same purpose too.
I've got ultra, works great, but on thing unpleasant ly shocked me....the robot is unable to auto switch between WiFi spots....means, if you have multilevel house, you can only connect to one WiFi or you need to reset it to connect to another one...crazy in my opinion
This seems to have less filtration than the normal auto empty dock. Does this matter?
Yeah I don't think it has the same 'Allergy Care' certification as the normal Auto Empty Dock. I haven't noticed any issues with dust escaping, but if you are particularly sensitive to allergens, the normal Auto Empty Dock might be a better choice perhaps.
when is going to be on the market
??
Hi, the S7MaxV Ultra will be released in the US on May 2nd. I'm not sure when in other parts of the world.
Why no bag less dust bin omg
What is better overall, and for mopping? Ecovac X1 omni or roborock s7 MaxV Ultra? Great review!
I'd like to know this too 👍
s7 maxv because the x1 omni doesnt mop as well
Hey Techpro CR, thanks for watching! Unfortunately I haven't yet had a chance to check out the Ecovacs X1 Omni. I guess one main difference of the S7MaxV is the VibraRise mopping system where it can keep the mop off (low pile) carpets, so it can still vac and mop all floor types during one cleaning run.
Is this already available for purchase? Is there a bagless option available?
It's available to purchase in some countries already, but not everywhere yet. No bagless option that I have read about, but I was told there would be a reusable, washable bag option with a lifespan of 6-12 months coming at some stage.
@@iamjoshstunell Thank you for answer
When is the Ultra available in Australia?
I've asked the question but yet to be told unfortunately. All I can see is the Roborock Australia website saying 'Coming Soon' so at least they have plans to launch it here at some point. My guess is due to supply issues it has been delayed. The US Roborock store is saying more stock of the Ultra won't ship til June 30th too.
I have the auto empty and im using home
7.4.203
I dont see the 3d option
Hi Luke, I only have experience with the Roborock App. I'm not sure if the Mi Home app supports the 3D map option sorry.
How does this compare to the other top brands out there?
Unfortunately I haven't yet had an opportunity to test any other top brands. This here shows details about 3 of the top models - th-cam.com/video/Q6j7iaAERig/w-d-xo.html
09:05 if you pick the robot and place it in the middle of your house for a spot cleanup, will it forget the map and be lost? This is what happens with the 1st generation that I own.
It doesn't forget the map, provided you have map saving enabled in the settings. After spot cleaning, you can tell it to return to dock, and it takes 10 seconds to position itself and then return to dock.
how do you get this in australia
Hi Ryan, the S7MaxV is available to order now, with or without the Auto-Empty Dock. I'm not sure when the Ultra combo will be available, but I assume a timeframe will be announced soon. - roborock.com.au/products/roborock-s7-maxv
I'd like to know if the brush roll spins on hard floor. If so, does it press embedded dirt in the rubber brushes into the floor surface like sandpaper? Did you see any signs of scratching on your floors? It might not depending on how close the rubber is to the hard floor. Vinyl plank manufacturers say to use a vacuum with the "beater bar" turned off.
If they want to sell these, they ought to make it easy to make the purchase. No option to purchase on Amazon. Says "Currently unavailable. We don't know when this will be in stock." On the Roborock website, there is no option I can see to add to a cart and check out.
I purchased mine through Roborock. Upper right hand corner that says "Store" in red letters. I have hardwood floors and so far no scratches.
Compared to this thing, i own a crappy relic that is basically only good at sucking up dog hair. But its slim enough to slip right under my couch and no one knows i even have him. Yes its a him lol. These new things look AMAZING. But they are hugemonguss. Where are you supposed to put one of these things? It is such an eye sore. But i still want one so bad haha
Not available in Canada!!! Wttffff :(
can we buy the S7 MaxV by itself now and add the ultra dock later as an add-on?
Yes, i bought it. Works great as is. I will be buying dock when it comes out. Only drawback is the obvious one, i empty the onboard water / dust bin by hand every other day.
For sure! For me, the S7 MaxV arrived a week before the Ultra dock did.
@@zenadukes225 How much surface area can you clean without having to refill the docking station's water tank, if you set the interval in which it returns to clean the mops to 10 minutes, and set the robot to
max scrubing?
@@iamjoshstunell Do you know if we can mix in any type of cleaning solution into the water tank? I see Robo rock makes a cleaning solution but it might only be for older models. I thought I read that we should use water only in the S7.
@@JazJonFL I think the official cleaning solution is the only 'approved' product. I've seen people mention using diluted vinegar and other commercial floor cleaners in it but it may void your warranty.
How much water is used each Time it washes the mops ?
Just did a test for you. I filled up the clean water tank to the 'Max Fill' line, and then washed the mop 4 times in a row using the 'Balanced' setting, which is the middle mop wash setting. Afterwards it took 500mL of water to fill the clean water tank up to the 'Max Fill' line again. So around 125mL per balanced wash as a rough measurement.
@@iamjoshstunell what happens if use the lowest setting for mop clean? What is the duration?
I don’t like the washing solution, it leaves streaks on my floor.
Can add that most robot mops works with any cleaning solution that works with water based vacuum. Usually those solutions don't foam which is what you want.
Any google or alexa voice commands??????
Yes! Works with both Google and Alexa commands. eg 'Hey Google, clean my kitchen'
Kind of a weird question, but since you've had both white S7+ and black S7 maxv ultra, which color remains cleaner and blends in better in your home?
Hey if I had a choice I'd definitely choose white. The black seems to show more dust on top of the vacuum itself. I'm sure they both attract the same amount of it, but it doesn't seem to show up on the white. Perhaps if you have dark floors, the black might blend in better overall though.
How can I get one!
The S7 MaxV is available for purchase now, links in description, and the empty wash fill dock should be available to buy early May!
It would be nice to have a cigar lighter so that when I look at my Roborock working it can light my cigar and help me relax!
The only authomatic everything is the Chinese version (G10S pro) which refills the dock's water tank and empties the dirty water tank.
It would be nice if we see that model in the rest of the world!
Just use non hash chemical floor cleaner it will be fine. and just vacuum out the dirt from the bag using bag-less vaccum.
Oh hell…😂I done put a cap full of pine-sol. In the water
What about long hair?
Roborock has surpassed roomba in every way possible
Im here for the hair tangling... Didn't get any.
I really wanna buy the Ultra but they took it off Amazon :( ... (I have Gift Cards)
What about streaks left on the floor from the robot's tires. This is a huge issue with the S7+ and reason enough not to buy another Roborock.
Hi there, I haven't noticed any streaks at this stage. But I also only have a relatively small area to mop each time, and often I do a deep mop route or 2 passes. Maybe give your wheels a wipe in case there is any dirt on them too perhaps?
@@iamjoshstunell I've done all that.
Good thorough review except none of these videos talk about pet hair.
That dock is a huge HELL NO!!! For me. The level of eyesore that huge thing is, it’s what makes me never want this particular one. I have the s5 max and the s7 plus. The s5 is fine but I believe the s7 is very best option. It’s sleek and looks nice anywhere you put it in your home and the mopping feature is so much better.
Self cleaning requires more machine maintenance. Water moving from one part of the machine to another comes with it's own headaches down the road. You have two tanks that will eventually require scrubbing and multiple parts that will need descaling, unless distilled water is used.
There is some maintenance with the dock required, sure. But the dock only needs some quick maintenance every month, instead of after every run to swap out the mop pad, refill the water and empty the dust bin.
@@iamjoshstunell I'm not sold 😊
@@claudacious9947 No1 Care
How many map this robot supports?
This will support up to 4 maps
There is still no other robot on the market that can clean like the S9+ If they added lidar and a front panel array of cameras with night vision or an added light... we would never talk about any other robot vacuum ever again. Dual Rollers... bin full and debris sensors all owned by iRobot
My top ranked robot vacuum is still the S9+ paired with the mopper. 2 Bots are better suited for dual-action cleaning. I want clean... I don't care about building inspector gadget.
It seems every major manufacturer has a slightly different strength to the others. We just need a someone to combine the best features of all brands now!
@@iamjoshstunell Either the companies are lazy, stupid, or corrupt. Thats the only reason these bots have not been equipped up with the best tech available. iRobot holds all the patents...so iRobot needs to be the company to put it all together. The other companies are just bad where it counts.. suction and rollers. No one wants to clean rollers constantly. The S9+ has soft rollers but get everything. in 24 months all I have had to do is buy some bags... filters and replacement rollers. I have spent about $100 on upkeep parts for my daily use robots. If you maintain your robot well... and keep your floor picked up... like you're supposed to do anyways.. DONT BE A SLOB... the s9 is the best bot for any situation.
Wow! I'll take one. $1400, okay nevermind
