Roborock Q Revo review

Roborock Q Revo is on the market in two completely different color choices, black or, just like the take a look at specimen, white. It’s the first mannequin from the producer to make use of two rotating pads to mop the flooring, in contrast to the S7 and S8 which use a vibrating mop pad.

Essentially the most eye-catching options come along with the large charging station which, along with providing computerized emptying of the robotic’s mud and water tanks, additionally cleans and dries the mops. The set-up is undeniably just like that of Dreame’s Dreamebot L10s Extremely, each when it comes to design and performance, which isn’t solely stunning since each producers have ties to the Xiaomi ecosystem.

The Q Revo prices $899 and is on the market from Amazon and the official retailer. It’s not launched within the UK on the time of writing however you possibly can import it for £835 from Sotel.

The set up could be very easy and, with the assistance of the accompanying app, is rapidly accomplished. After a primary spherical, the house is mapped with the assistance of the laser-based navigation system Lidar, after which you’ll divide the rooms and title them in response to your style. In fact, you too can add digital partitions in addition to create completely different zones (similar to no-go zones), add furnishings and flooring.

A number of customisation choices

The app has a powerful array of settings and you’ll customise a lot of the features, from how a lot water to make use of when mopping, the suction energy and path to make use of within the completely different zones to the order through which rooms are cleaned. You probably have carpets in your house, you don’t have to fret about eradicating or demarcating them, because the mop pads robotically increase a full 7 millimetres as quickly because it passes over the carpet line, thus solely vacuuming these surfaces.

On the entrance, Roborock Q Revo has sensors that use structured gentle to detect and keep away from any obstacles in its path. In contrast to the S fashions, it doesn’t have a complementary laser system for this function and I instantly discover that the Q Revo performs considerably worse than the producer’s high fashions. Cords and different small objects I place on the ground are sucked up or get caught within the brush, which in some instances results in interruptions in cleansing.

By way of efficiency and cleansing outcomes, it’s all the extra cheerful. With a suction energy of 5,500 Pa, it sucks up every part in its path and the twin mops rub off even dried-on stains successfully. The bottom station water tank holds a full 5 litres of water, sufficient to mop as much as round 400 sq. metres, and total upkeep is comparatively straightforward. Some longer hair fibres get caught within the rubber brush and should be eliminated at common intervals, however in any other case the robotic can deal with itself for lengthy intervals with out you having to elevate a finger.
