@5:52 was insanely satisfying. I’ve been looking to pull the trigger on the s7 maxV ultra. Soooo much money in Australia ($2600+)… however the Roborock product is unreal.
Hey Jamie, thanks for this really informative video review. It helped me make up my mind. I bought a q7 max on sale today as it was about $400 (Australian) cheaper than the S7. I'm a stickler for vaccum power, and your review on the Q7 max suction power really impressed me with how well the machine picked up all the crap on the floor. I'm upgrading from an ecovac 920, as long as it's better, I'll be pretty happy.
You will be happy with it at that price point. It is a great value and the suction power is impressive. I am glad I could help you choose. Keep me posted on how you like it.
I've had the Q7 max for a week and I'm very happy with it. Compared to Ecovacs 920 (which two years ago cost the same as my Q7 max) it has much better path finding and battery life. Reviews are complaining about the size of the q7's dual dustbin, but I find it holds way more than my old ecovacs 920. I'm love that the Q7 max has a button you can just press on the robot to get it to start vacuuming. I don't need to load up the app to get it going. The only negative, compared to the 920 atleast, is that the Q7 max has one single rotating side brush, compared to the 920's two side brushes. So while the Q7 has 4 times the suction power, it seems to very occasionally miss small debris, which I can only assume is missed because it has one less rotating brush compared to my old two brush ecovacs. Having said that, the build quality of the Q7 rotating rubber brush is a lot better than my old 920, whose brushes and rollers I had to replace after a year.
The argument for the S7 does make sense... The mop is "better" and doesn't need to be removed. These are both on the "Tanos" platform..with minor hardware changes internally. Q7 being a Rebranded T8. S7 being a Global version of T7S. AKA T7 version 2.. :) The main difference here is going to be the Motor, dust bin and overall tolerances of the machines. I doubt many people will find a difference between the 2500PA motor and the 4200PA one. Comes down to "Sale" price. ;))
Agreed and plus I find the ability to be a good vacuum had less to do with the power rating of the vacuum and more to do with the brush roller and how close it can come to the floor.
No mopping zones means that it won't go in the area you set when it has a mopping pad attached. If you remove the mopping plate with pad it will cross over the no mopping zone to perform a vacuum operation.
Thanks for the review :) I have question regarding mopping and carpets. If I set carpets as no-mop zone and remove the mopping pad after cleaning, can I easily&quickly send the robot to vacuum only the carpets?
If they are rugs you would have to do a zone cleaning in vaccum only mode. If it is a room you could send it out in vaccum only mode as well and just select a room cleaning.
The S7 has the VibraRise mopping system which is the biggest difference by far. The S7 also has a dedicated carpet sensor and 2 additional cliff sensors. The dock on the S7 can be bag or baggless and also has extra filtration.
Thanks for the video! Do you know if the Q7 dock would work with a S7? I prefer the design of this new dock and its larger 2.5L bag rather than the 1.8L used in the European version of the S7 dock.
Those are 2 very different machines and don't directly compete. If price is not a factor the L10s has a ton more features and has a great mopping system with obstacle avoidance. It comes down to your needs and budget.
@jamie.andrews Hey Jamie, and thank you for still answering the questions around here. Comparing the q7 max+ to l10 pro, they seem like a head-to-head competitors. Between these two, would you still go with dreame?
Hello, thank you for this review! The dust bag in the Q7 Max+ is it reusable? Can it just be emptied and reused or would I need to buy extra bags? (that would be a drawback if they are not readily available or easy to find in the market). Thank you.
I would not advise to reuse them unless you are in a pinch. There are a few reason for this. 1. The bag is the filter so the more the bag is used the more the bag clogs uo putting strain on your vacuum motor plus it will lessen the auto empty effectiveness. 2. It is not easy and very messy trying to empty the bags out through a small hole.
@@jamie.andrews thank you very much for the prompt reply! Understood, they have to be replaced. I'll just make sure they are easy to find and buy before buying this Roborock model. Thanks once again
It really depends on your needs. If you want a self cleaning mop that way out performs the mopping on the Q7 Max with object avoidance go for the Q Revo. If you don't care about mopping as many people don't or object avoidance save your money with the cheaper option.
Hi, this combined dustbin/watertank seems like a bad idea, it means it’s impossible to let the water tank to dry for a few days while using the vacuum, which is possible with other models. I’m not a fan of water remaining in a sealed compartment… seen multiple posts on Reddit of people having some sort of mold in their tanks, or the plastic turned yellow, etc. Have you seen things like that? That’s why I always let the tank of my S5 Max to dry, I was considering switching to this Q7 mainly for the auto empty, but this is a drawback, maybe I’ll consider the S7 instead. Thanks for the review!
Hey, if i buy these stations, is it necessary to buy the bags all the time? s7 maxv(no station) and q7max plus(with station) same price, which one should i buy?
You can buy the S7 MaxV Plus and buy the bagless cannister if you don't want to buy bags. If obstacle avoidance and a lifting vibrating mop are important to you the go for the S7. If not the Q7 will do.
Hi Jamie, how are you? I would like to ask you a question. I bought a roborock q7 max, and I noticed that when I use the vacuum and mop function together, with the option to clean 2x, when it finishes, I notice that the floor is full of dust and feather residue. Using turbo power, and even then it still gets dirt behind. Did you notice something similar with yours? Because he has 4200Pa, I found that very strange. Could you please give me some feedback. Thanks in advance for your reply. I'm always following your videos. I miss seeing new vacuum robot videos.
Hey Dione! Thanks for your support. Just getting over Covid and I will have a new robot review out shortly. I usually always vacuum first and then mop. Especially when you first get the robot because it can get to places we normally can't. Try that and then send it out to mop and see if that help some.
@@jamie.andrews I understood. I did this yesterday and its super right, It got a lot cleaner anyway. I put it to clean 3x, the first just vacuuming and the last 2 mop. Thanks in advance for the tips. I hope that soon everything goes back to normal. Hugs!
I have been looking in you reviews and comments for a question that I have. I’m looking for at robot that does not “eat” powercords, gets intanglet at both ends of my persian carpets… in other words can be used with me looking at the robot working 😅 I thought that Roborock q7 or maby q8 might do the trick? But from what I understand from your review it is far from perfect. Best Jan, Denmark
@@JanSimmen-efolkeoplysning You have to choose a robot that has the function of avoiding objects. There are many good models that do this. I currently have a Roborock S7 Maxv and it is very good.
Hi Jamie. Do you know why What should I do if the Auto Empty Dock is not emptying like your, I have two dogs and the Roborock work great,collects the same amount of garbage that yours collects but does not empty it. In facts the garbage do not even move.
Make sure the dustbag is fully slid in and has no holes in it. Ensure the lid is down all the way around the bag. Make sure there are no clogs in the path the dirt and debris take. You may need to flip the dock over to see.
I have not tested the T9, but I have tested the T10. If you value obstacle avoidance the T9 is the clear choice plus it has a better mop. I don't know if you can get a dock with the T9 so if you want a dock go with Roborock.
If you live in Australia, beware of Ecovacs After Sales Support. They do not have a good reputation. I've just sent my T10+ back for a refund and it has literally taken three months for them to agree.
I had the t10 plus but the app was fidgety I have kids and dogs so when I saw the bottom was bristle and rubber and I tried I immediately returned it. Will the Q7 Max + benefit me better?

I just got the Q7 Max+ for $500 all-inclusive with tax included. Hopefully that's a worthy price.
Tx for this video
Hi Jamie! Thanks for the great video. I cant really decide between q7 max plus and q7 max. Do you think that dock station worth the extra money?
Personally yes.
Hi, you mentioned you can set up no mopping zones. What does this achieve since the mop doesn't lift?
No mopping zones means that it won't go in the area you set when it has a mopping pad attached. If you remove the mopping plate with pad it will cross over the no mopping zone to perform a vacuum operation.

I am thinking about Q7 Mac Plus and Dreame L10S Ultra, although they are in different price range, what would you suggest?
Those are 2 very different machines and don't directly compete. If price is not a factor the L10s has a ton more features and has a great mopping system with obstacle avoidance. It comes down to your needs and budget.
@jamie.andrews Hey Jamie, and thank you for still answering the questions around here. Comparing the q7 max+ to l10 pro, they seem like a head-to-head competitors. Between these two, would you still go with dreame?
Thanks for the video! This bot is able to avoid small random objects? (socks, pet wastes...)
Unfortunately not since it does not have object avoidance. For that you would need to look at the S7 MaxV.
@Radletorn in this case S7 max, I believe avoid.

Q7 Max Plus @ $499.99 or QRevo @ 699.99 It seems the extra features make the revo the winner even at the higher price?

had an S5 for 2 years, and currently S7 for a year, never had an issue with mold
Add a few drops of alcohol and no mold will ever appear

Hi. Thx for the dedicated video on Q7. In Germany: 625USD for Q7 Max+ vs 790USD for S7+.. I am not sure the price diff justify S7+, or!?
That is more of a spread in price. If mopping is important then the S7 is more capable.
Q7 Max + or Q8 Max +? Which one is best
Q8 if you need dual rollers and basic object avoidance. Mostly for pet owners.
