Europe - bought s7 with auto empty and got bagless and bag setups. Using bagless one and so far very happy. I didn't even think about it, but auto empty cleans up filter perfectly, its a huge improvement versus manually cleaning our old robot. No reviewer talks about it, but roborock/mi robots have a 10x easier internal parts replacement and they're 5x cheaper than other pricier robots. Thats why we're using roborock.
I actually mistakenly purchased a roborock S7 thinking it is actually a mop too, just based on many english reviews here. Then saw one review in russian where the guy finally actually pointed out that wet cleaning isn't a mop and that they are two completely different things. Roborock will only wipe nearly clean floor to remove minor amounts of dust and small debree, which for example ilife 450 is an actual mop that does what the mop should do, and afaik they do not even have any competition on a market at this time. So I am coming to a conclusion that it is much better to buy a two separate vacuums for these two tasks, one that is just a vacuum without any "wiping" features because they are quite useless as a mop and as the guy says - will make it worse spreading all the dirt all over the house. and on top of that you will need to clean the pad manually all the time. So I think the iLife 450 for now is half of the solution and I will research more to see which robot vacuum can do only vacuuming in the best way, I think I will focus on D-shaped models for that, for superior corner cleaning.
Price is a big factor also in europe. The S9 with auto empty is around 1.700$. The S7 with auto empty is 950$. With the added mopping feature on the S7 its a no-brainer for me.
the Roomba S9 is definetely the one to get if you have consistent mid pile carpets in +75% of the house, however seems the Roborock once again is better if your house is mostly floors.
Yesterday was my 1st time using my S7. 1st I let it run 2x's over my kitchen (I have hardwood floors) then I wet the mop pad and mixed 1 cup of Mr. Clean pet cleaner and a little Fabuloso and 1 cup of water. This little machine did and excellent job!!!! My only con is that it isn't low enough to go under my coach in my livingroom. This robot cleaner will be my main cleaning tool for my floors with the exception of sweeping here and there.
Keep in mind the iRobot s9+ will not work on higher pile or plush carpets. I had to return mine because my carpet was too nice. The roborock handles it no problem.
Good to know 👍 I returned my S9+ for other reasons (WAY too long to map 3,000 Sq Ft Home… Days!!! Then it stopped working altogether). I never had the S9+ long enough to evaluate it on my plush carpets.
How do you like it? I've read people have issues with the self emptying dust bin. How well does it work on carpet? I have a cat so pet hair etc. Debating on this one or the Roomba j7 +.
@@shanew7361 a year later and I still love the Roborock. I’ve replaced brushes, bags, cleaned it… it really needs very little maintenance and it is still going strong. It vacuums/mops my 3 dogs’ favorite rooms daily and the rest of the house a couple times a week. If I’m expecting company, I set it to sweep and mop the entryway floors double pass. Spotless.
I really enjoyed this test and analysis, but the issues I've heard with the S9 are surrounding its ability to clean over area rugs, or bathroom mats. Would you be able to include some of these items in future testing to show the robots' ability to clean over items? Thanks for also including noise levels!
All these tests are made in small apartments. In our 250m2 house Roomba was useless it could clean for 8 hours and just give up, it was basically electronic junk in our house. Roborock crushed it never got lost and sometimes it did it in a single charge in couple of hours.
@@CordlessVacuumGuide ik roborock has the autoresume feature where it'll charge up to complete a clean and then go back to where it left off, not sure if Roomba has that though
What brands? The one I found, Dreame Bot W10, lacked auto-empty for the vacuum in exchange for clean and dirty water tanks. Seems like a questionable tradeoff, but I suppose people don't want a huge base sitting out.
I absolutely hate my S9. I am on my third warranty replacement, and I am ready to throw it in the garbage. The auto empty dock also never works, I am on my second dock. The auto empty dock on the roomba has a design flaw that causes it to empty dust into the computer board and the air. Avoid the roomba at all costs, this has been the worst thousand dollars I’ve ever spent.
Same....I've been having so many problems with my S9+ especially with the software glitches and terrible patches that ha e caused the robot to go in circles for hours
Sounds like B's ..I've had my robot for over a year and no problems ... On a house with pets ... Your probably doing some shit to cause the robot not to evac
Same here. Literally, hate after some cheap xiaomi. I have to keep lights on all the time. Keep buying expensive brushes. Was sending for warranty 2 times already. Selling it currently. I thought I bought something like Apple/Peak Design. But, in reality, it’s a 💩
Anyone else wonder why Roomba and other camera-based robots don't have a couple of small LED light emitters to provide light in dark areas? Wouldn't have to be super bright and LED lights are extremely energy efficient so it wouldn't really hurt battery life.
So I have trimmed down my selection between these two... either pairing Roomba s9+ with Braava Jet m6 or going straight for Robocok s7+. I am leaning towards Robocok (main floor is 2500 sq ft and I have a combination of hardwood floors, tile and area rugs). Any advice/
I'd lean towards the Roborock S7+ since your floors are mostly hardwood with area rugs. The Roborock's features are better suited for this type of setup, plus the floor area favors the S7's efficient navigation and longer range.
74db may be too loud for your neighbors in an apartment building if you vacuum almost daily for an hour at a time! A serious issue, if you don't wanna become homeless.
I can tell you're a Filipino by your accent. How did you buy these high-end here? How about the availability of services/maintenance when these break down and needs fixing?
Lots of Roomba parts in Lazada and Shopee, same with Roborock, only a matter of time when S7 parts arrive. I've seen Roomba and Roborock products sold in Lazada, so you can check those.
The software for the Roborock looks good. Does it remember the house layout somehow? I have a V1 Xiaomi which remaps the house on each new full vacuum. And if you put the Roborock say upstairs and told it to clean, how would that affect its memory/map of the house? And then if you returned it downstairs?
Roborock will save multiple maps. When you put it on the main floor or upstairs it will recognize which map to use. Very good lidar, works completely in the dark. The irobot uses visual camera, so it needs light to work properly
Thank you so much for the review! I’m trying to find the best vacuum and mop (combo or separate) for my new apartment. I have two dogs, one of them is shedding a lot, I have long hair which could be a problem for some vacuums. I also have two children so we often have crumbs and stains on the floors. Can you please recommend what would be the best for me! Thank you in advance.
I'd lean towards the Roborock S7 with the mopping feature and because it's decent at cleaning hair. The S7 will be decent at mopping floors, but I'm not a big fan of robot mops that can't pick up liquid, it's not something that I'd use regularly since leaves water marks on the surface. My favorite robot mop at the moment is the ILIFE W450. You can check out my review on this channel :).
What about between ecovacs t9 aivi to these Roomba S9 and roborock S7?T9 aivi have two brush design like Roomba s9 and vibration mop feature like roborock s7 , what is your opinion of ecovacs t9 aivi?
I've got Ecovacs s7, it cleans hard floor and carpet ok, but camera mapping is terrible. Roborock is definitely better. Irobot is on a different price range Lol.
@@sunhannah2937 I bought t9 aivi , cleaning of t9 aivi Is awesome but as you mentioned camera mapping is terrible , sometimes it don't go where i want , I hope it gets fixed with a software update.
I wonder if the airflow is different with the new dustbin that comes with the auto empty dock since it does not have the plastic piece covering part of the filter like the dustbin that comes with the s7.
Sorry for the off topic question but I have a problem. I bought a Tacklife robot vacuum but they don't have replacement parts. Since usually many robots have similar parts do you know wich other brand has parts interchangeable with TAC? Thank you so much
Love you video thank you for the review I would like to purchase one of them from my appartement with a pet that sheds a LOT and a baby on the way.. wish one do you think would do better with pet hair? Thank you
The Roomba S9 should be better, performance-wise, but I like the auto-empty system of the S7 where debris flows through a wider opening - it should bode well with emptying pet hair from the dustbin.
The worst thing about those robot vacuums is their durability. I have Roborock S5 Max for about a year now but after first few months, during which it worked almost perfectly, it's getting worse and worse. After just a year the sucking power decreased bmo and even after two runs in the same room there is still some dirt on the floors and we have linoleum flat flooring everywhere.. I wouldn't buy this useless overpriced piece of trash again, just a waste of money if you don't live in a 30 sqm apartment alone and walk barefoot all day there and let shoes outside.
If you’re buying a robot vac and expect it to clean your whole house then that’s your fault. It’s to be used as assistance not the end all vac of the house.
The biggest selling point for me was the roborock was the mopping and it's fantastic. It's great at non carpet maintenance.

Is the bagless option interchangeable with the non-bagless version? Another words can we swap out just the bagless part?
