    I love that vacuums nearly mastered navigation and picking abilities, that opens room for adding new features instead of just upgrading mentioned things. Hopefully we will see more dockings stations that transfer dust or maybe even docking station for mopping robot?
    I have lots of hard floor that could be mopped but I think that with so much space robot would have to change mop during cleanup, have steam cleaning abilities (although that battery would be huge then) or maybe a water changing system like that discontinued iRobot Scooba but with same tank integrated into docking station (5l or so, used water could be dumped beneath robot into docking station tank and fresh water would be added to the robot through the top)

      Hey man, since you bought one, can you tell me how well it mops? I need something for my floor mat. (I run a karate school) and I don't really care about fancy features like avoiding things or mapping. I just have a rectangle vinyl mat about 1200 sq feet that I clean daily. minimum hair/dust to pick up, but I need one that mops well. If I'm going to spend a couple hundred on an electonic mop I have to use, I might as well get something that does it for me.
      Edit: If I don't mop it daily, my feet are black at the end of teaching class. And a traditional mop is BLEH. Just streaks and makes my feet black even after cleaning daily.

    You should retest the standard S5 with the new firmware. It now supports rooms, and it is also much smarter in route planning. Over 100 sq.meters, it cut 20 minutes off the run time & still covers everything. It basically does a better job of optimizing the path, especially minimizing turns (so it gets many more straight runs). It was a huge improvement to an already great bot.

      They don't talk about electrical interference..
      I love my s5, but randomly at random times, it detects magnetic anomaly, sometimes as huge as half room. Some times small patches..
      And because it detects magnetic anomaly, it will not clean those area thinking magnetic stop strips are there..
      Nothing you can do to clean then during those days.
      Some days my house is mess, other days it's super clean.
      I am keep g my eyes on the new mop cleaner from another company that self cleans..
      Roborock has failed to give us s5 users any new software update, which it gives to s5 max, s4 and s6.
      Room cleaning capability. It's a simple implement, but they have refused.. Also officially their parts are very expensive. Buying cheaper knockoff parts for s5 is better, however only the newer brush that comes with s5 max, s6 are recommended. S5 brush are hard to clean ( hair removal).
      If you are lucky your house won't have any under ground magnetic anomaly, if you are unlucky, your house will have many wires running underground that will likes make this product useless..

      Also.. No room managment.. Something which is easy for them to include but they refuse.
      Good device when no magnetic anomaly detected.. Which usually people start facing after 7 month of usage. I am using it for 2 years now. Still going strong. Bought few after markets accessories for it. But the s6 brushes on s5 is a must. I wonder if they shipped u with the upgraded brushes.

      The S5 Max's mopping ability is sadly lacking. All it does is drag a SLIGHTLY damp cloth across the floor. It can only use water -- preferably distilled. If you are counting on this robot to actually MOP your floors, you will be sadly disappointed. It is a GREAT vacuum cleaner. But so is the S4 -- and the S4 has a much smaller price tag. If you are really looking for a robot that mops, you will need to look elsewhere.

      Even now, almost half a year later, there's still no vac-mop combo bot out there that could do heavy duty mopping. whatever the price, so long as the bot's a combo, the mop's meant only for light duty maintenance, NOT serious mopping jobs. if mopping is REALLY that important to you, get a dedicated mopping bot instead.

    I recently bought the original S5 from your recommendations and I really like it so far, but one problem that is often ignored in these reviews is cleaning dark rugs. My living room has a large rug with a black and white pattern on it which confuses the S5's sensors into thinking it's going to fall off a ledge. As a result, I had to cover the sensors to make sure it could clean the rug, but realistically, this is something roborock should allow us to configure via software.

    • @xzaz2
      @xzaz2 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't think they are going to do that. If you place it on the first floor; disable those sensors by accident your robot is done for.

    thanks for the review, order this one yesterday curieus how it will work in our home. Our neato botvac 3 died after three years and did a very well job on our dog hairs (yeah white hairs on dark floor). There are so many options in this price range and hopefully we like the product as much as you do so maybe we can make an positive review as well :)

    Hi! Great review. I am looking for a first robot cleaner to buy and seeking for an answer to the question: as I do have connections between rooms higher then 2cm and it can't climb. Is the S5 Max "smart enough" that I can pick it up and place myself from one room to another and it will understand in which room it is and will be able to recognize the zones I want it to skip?

  • @LoGoBDA
    @LoGoBDA 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hi, one BIG con for both the S5 and S6 (I have both) is that you cannot draw exclusion zoned for mopping only! Or have two maps one for your standard cleaning jobs and one for mopping. I have stopped using the mopping feature as a result of this as it is too cumbersome to set no zones every time I want to mop. - Or maybe there is another way dealing with this?

    Hey guys. First of all, thanks soooooo much for all your reviews. This has become my one-stop-shop for researching a new RoboVac. Secondly, and the real reason I’m here: I’m pretty much sold on the Shark IQ self-empty. But I do love the option for mopping on this one. Which one of the two would you go with for a small house that’s mostly hardwood and vinyl?

      Same here, I am pretty satisfied. I did report a small "bug" in the S5 MAX operation logic, but I hope it gets fixed in the future.
      (about he way it handles the paths arround edges of doorframes or table legs adjacent to walls or sofas)
      Anyway, the first rule (for newcomers) is that before you run the S5 MAX for the fisrt time, you have to pick all thing from the floor (chairs, bins, boxes, shoes etc) so it can create a propper map of the rooms. Also, don't forget to open all the doors you want the S5 to go to in the future.

Do you think Roborock has a big possibility to have a constraint? and how difficult to handle it with my own limited equipment and solve it by myself at home? what do you think i should pick? thankyou fyi..

    Interesting findings. I contacted Roborock directly and they stated the S5 Max and S6 have the same exact motor and suction power rated at 2000 Pa. The dust bin is actually larger on the S5 and S6 compared to the S5 Max at 480ml vs 460ml. They also have the same battery. S6 has more lasers for better Navi, but S5 Max is better for the new mopping feature.

    The Roborock S5 Max unit I received several days ago has lived up to its stellar reviews. Thanks
    Its suction is excellent, the mopping capability is amazing as the the robots ability to manage level changes, cables, carpet fringes and other obstacles is outstanding. All round I am delighted by this unit.
    The Roborock app on the other hand is unstable and misses the mark on utility. If it were a stand alone product I would have returned it - yesterday. Aside from the incredibly irritating instability my principle complaint is the fact it does not support multiple maps and does not remember zone setups in a user friendly way. The app takes a great robot unit and makes it's use - irritating.
    A great app would have made this product completely stellar. Hopefully the missed opportunity at greatness will be captured in an upgrade.

    I bought this one. It vacuums really well. One thing I didn’t realise and that wasn’t mentioned in the video as far as I can tell: if you have a no-mop zone, and your Roborock starts a cleaning cycle including mopping, it won’t enter the no-mop zone, not even to just vacuum!
    I have a no mop zone near the entrance of the living room where we have a carpet, and a do-mop zone beyond that. The S5 max doesn’t travel over the carpet to mop the bit beyond the no-mop zone…
    You also can’t program it to mop only. It can vacuum only. Not mop only…
    I’m still very happy with it, but I wish I’d known these particular things beforehand.

      I have the same concern, though for me it's my nearly black tiles in kitchen and bath. So it's not like I can just buy a different rug. Giving us the ability to define "safe zones" would be a great idea!
      My first cleaning robot is on its way into my hands right now, and if it doesn't come with the option to just disable the sensors altogether I might simply tape them up as there's no way it can fall off anything in my flat (might have to use a spacer or something, I'm sure the sensors need a minimum distance... Hopefully not too close to the ground)
