Finally a genuine video explaining everything! The rest of the content on RUclips is just about what this can do but not what you should expect when you buy it. Appreciate you.
Glad you found it helpful.
Totally agree! Thank you so much for the free public service
Excellent video, just what I needed, Roborock really should pay you for this! As with another commenter, I cleaned parts I never knew I should 😂 Thank you!
I’ll let them know… glad you found the video useful!
Ohhhh thank you so very much for posting this video.
Being an elderly person, they think we automatically know how to do things. We were never groomed for technology.
The instruction booklet is absolutely usless (to me anyway, lol).
Thanks again. 🙏
Glad it was helpful!
This was a great video for a new owner - Detailed and yet simple to follow! Thanks a ton....
Glad it was helpful!
amazing and thorough videos, also the music is matching perfectly. One thing to note, on the mopping pad the brownish stains are because of the dryer first usages, it's some plastic residue from the vents due to the heating inside the dock, so with a new one you wont have this anymore in the future, maybe in the long run but not so soon as when robot was new.
I will watch for this and see if it goes away in a few months, thanks!
Glad I found you, Shipmate. And thank you for taking the time to teach! You pointed out areas of filth I didnt know I had! I think this may solve my streaking problem too.
(Later) Yep, it solved the streaking. Thanks, again!
Glad it was helpful!
Great demonstration. I really needed help in figuring out how to clean the RoboRock. Your video was very easy to understand and follow. Thank You!
Glad it was helpful!
Fantastic video with clear and precise instructions. The best I found yet. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Great job, better than Roborock's videos. And soothing music and voice, I left feeling relaxed and ready to clean my vacuum!
I'd like to mention that the dirty water tank should be emptied very regularly, if not after every mopping session. I find that if you don't use the mopping feature frequently (such that it fills up and prompts emptying) letting the dirty water linger leads to a very foul odor. I use a spray cleaner containing bleach in the tank and let it sit for 5 minutes or so before rinsing it out (don't leave it in the tank, it can eat the plastic). I leave the dirty water tank door open while it's in the dock so it can dry it out when not in use.
We just received our Roborock today thank you for all the tips and actually seeing the up keep done was a lot of help 👍🏼
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the video. I've done general maintenance with my Roborock; however, my vacuum got into some fine ash. We have a woodstove; while removing the ash from the woodstove, some got under the woodstove, leaving a very fine layer that blended right into the tile, and the vacuum went right over that. Since some items needed replacement, I just took care of everything. This video was very helpful in checking other areas, and now my vacuum is as good as new.
Glad to hear the video helped.
Got the Q Revo and with some differences like the single roller this video was super helpful for me to do maintenance and keep things running great. Amazing how much hair gets stuck in the sides of the roller.
I have a q Revo comparison video as I have both.
Thank you, better than the manufacturer could show us!
Very Helpfull. It's not a cheap piece of equipment and maintenance is required. Thanks!
You're welcome!
Fantastic work. Thank you. I just did everything in the video plus boiling the side brush to make it straight again.
Glad you enjoyed it. Boiling could be a solution, heat gun… etc
Thanks for this.. I was not sure if I was cleaning them right. Your video helps a lot!
Glad it helped
Thank You so much for making this video! 🙏
Thanks for the awesome video and cheers from Germany!
You’re welcome
This video was very thorough. Nice simple and easy to understand for us slow learners. 😅 Excellent teacher. Thank you so so much.
Glad it was helpful!
Exactly the video I needed. Thank you so much for this!
Glad it was helpful!
Great overview of the maintenance tasks thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
The video was very helpful! Thank you for providing it to us.
You're very welcome!
Another tip for smell in the dirty water bin. Put 1 capful of fabulosa cleaner in the bin after rinsing. We will only ever smell fabulosa when dumping the bin after starting this.
You are awesome. Never knew about all the hidden places!
Glad to help.
Thank you for the video! Immediately favorite so I can get back to this every 2-3 months
Great to hear!
Clear and concise. Thanks a lot
You're welcome!

Thanks! Very helpful!

Great video. Most of same maintenance applies to the S7 MaxV Ultra, so is handy for that robot too.
Glad it was helpful.
Great video! Very helpful :)
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent video, well done and cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Perfect videos on the S8! Helped me alot to set mine up (got it yesterday). Thank you so much
Can you do another video about the app and/or best practices for daily usage? Would be awesome!
Did you see the unboxing and usage video
ruclips.net/video/UZhv4USzCKE/видео.html
@@retrotechandelectronics Yes, thats how I found your channel. Still I think the app is quite complicated and I‘m not sure about the most effective settings yet.
@@PeterFrahm Agree, we do need a detailed app video.
Love this video. Thanks for sharing :)
Thanks for watching!
Super job. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
😀❤ Thank you Thank you for saving me so much time reading through the manual. Blessings to you and your family.
New subbie 👍
Thanks for subbing!
So helpful this video, thank you very much.
Glad it was helpful!
What a great video, thank you so much
Glad you enjoyed it!
A video with a very good explanation
Thank you.
Thx so much! This was so helpful.
Glad it was helpful for you
Thank you very much - good explaining
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks, very useful. By the way, don't you think the way the side brush gets its fibers angeled by the heat of mops drying is a design failure? Mine is like yours and in other vacuums I had that did not happened. The worst thing I think it is not just a chosmetic error, cause sometimes I can see side brush kicking trash out instead of absorbing it. Have you had a similar experience with yours?
Thank you, really good presentation, cheers :)
Glad you liked it!
Your a star bro thanks for the video very helpful
Glad it helped
Super useful, thanks 🙏🏻
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for that!
You’re welcome!
Thank you
You're welcome
Thanks a lot!
You're welcome!
Nice video!!! Thanks a lot!
Glad you liked it!
I think with the base you should have 2 filters so you can change it quick and easily and clean the dirty one more often to keep everything nice and clean.
Thank you so much for this video! I just brought the S8 Pro, my first time ever owning a robo vac. Question: Is it normal that I hear what seems to be a loose piece inside near the mop area? Every time I flip the machine I keep hearing something move up and down as I flip it.
thanks mate! appreciate it
No problem 👍
Thank you!! This was so easy to follow. The manual is useless.
Glad to help
Very helpful video, thank you! How to you manage the cleaning of the onboard water tank?
There is no method of removing it for cleaning.
Thanks!!
You're welcome.
Thanks
You’re welcome.
Thank youuuuuu ❤😊
You’re welcome.
thanks!!
You're welcome!
Thank you for this video as it helps me to enjoy my s8 more. Sub
Glad it helped!
What a great video, thank you. How do we add a room?
Simply allowing it to discover the room as it roams around will add it to your existing map.
How do you add a room to an existing map. Do you have to remap the whole house?
I do have some cocnerns with the deformed brushes. I have an Ecovacs T8 and have never had this issue. I'm considering upgrading to the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra but this feels like somewhat of a deal breaker as it would severely affect it's ability to sweep up dirt. How long did it take the brushes to deform?
Good Video 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video about how many bags would you need over y months for a normal 2 adult home cats and 1 dog
Depends on a number of factors I could not answer
The best video
Thanks!
No video where you can see how to take the water resovoir out of the S8 , thats the only thing i would recommend cause there is no introduction anywhere for it ;)
Can I ask my roborock s8 pro ultra is leaking every time it’s filling up the robot? Any ideas how to fix this or what’s causing the problem?
Thanks
Casey
Have you taken apart the docking station? I would like to create a system that when the station calls to empty the dust bin (in the vacuum) it will trigger a switch to allow the central vac in my house to transfer the dust
Interesting concept. Maybe an esp32 with a db sensor to kick on the house vacuum when a threshold is crossed
Thanks so much for the video, it’s very helpful. Just one question. Is it possible to lift the unit from the dock? I tried to and I couldn’t lift it. So in order to clean the dock (brush and water filter) I started a vacuum clean to move it off the dock. Is it ok to then turn the unit upside down to perform maintenance while on pause? Thank you
No problem to remove it from the dock and clean the dock area. Place it back on when finished, when aligned, it will say charging.
@@retrotechandelectronics thank you I tried again and lifted no problem. I initially thought it was locked on the dock. Thanks again 😊
Do I need to remove the water container from the robot before turning it upside down? And it needs to be done on a soft surface to avoid damaging the sensors that sitck out on the top of the unit?
No, it cannot be removed, nor do you need to remove it. I put a towel on the countertop before laying the unit upside down upon it.
You please do a video on how to fix the issue of the dirty water not being filtered into the water tank. I’ve tried everything :(
Who filters dirty water?
Is there a way to start the cleaning of mop and drying manually?
Yes, under the docked controls.
What cleaning solution do you use for the mop?
Omo
Has anyone tried measuring the electricity consumption of the mop dryer? I live in a humid environment so 3 Hours has it just about fully dry 4 hours would likely be ideal. I do use it twice a day in the dining room/kitchen (baby + meals = mess) so I wanted to see if it was a significant power draw.
Use a kill-a-watt wall adapter to check
Hi, how often do you change the Dust bag ?
Depends on the house, pets and other environmental factors
Do you usw any cleaning solution when mopping?
Yes, omo.
So we are finding a lot of resting water just in the base of the dock (the filter is perpetually wet, the high speed brush and the area is the dock to the left of the high speed brush? Is that normal?
No. Remove that filter assembly and clean that membrane filter like I did in the video with soap. It’s clogged
S7 MaxV Ultra vs S8 Pro Ultra? Which do you think has the less hassle of maintenance and which you liked more?
I ask because I'm before buying...
I believe the latest S7 now has the dryer as standard, making both on par as far as maintenance goes. I like the 8 for better suction, the dual roller, the lift system and better aesthetics.
Did you empty the water tank before lifting it upside down? And how?
I did not, there is no need to do so
Dan, this is very valuable, thank you. For me personally, I freaking hate the "music", it makes it intolerable to rewind and rewatch, watch when hearing my own music etc. Such a high quality product, imagine if you hated the music yourself, there's just zero reason to have it there. I'd pay for a version without the crappy piano, as I would want to return to this video when performing maintenance.. but heck no not listening to that crap twice a month!
.
The music along with his steady voice are amazing!!!!
May I ask what settings did you wash the mop pad on? Warm water or cold? Thank you.
There is a setting for cleaning intensity and how often but not for temperature. It’s not heated. Only the dryer is heated.
@@retrotechandelectronics appreciate your help thank you, but I didn’t understand your reply. Maybe my question wasn’t clear. For running the mop pad in the washer / dryer you said you cleaned the mop by running it through a washer and dryer. That was what I was asking about. Did you use bleach? Run a cold water or warm water cycle? Thank you 😊
@@LJames-YTV ok I understand now. Asked the wife, washed with other microfibre towels on cold with detergent did the job. Was not in the gas dryer.
@@retrotechandelectronics thank you very much sir 😊
@@LJames-YTV you’re welcome.
Toz torbasini bosaltmak zor olmuyor mu? Keske toz torbasiz kullanilabilseydi .Bu torba tekrar tekrar kullaniliyor mu?
Toz torbası boşaltılmadan değiştirilir. Sadece bir kez kullanılır. Değiştirilmesi kolaydır.
So is it easier to do the maintenance or just mop and vacuum the floor yourself??
I spend about 15 minutes a month on the maintenance. You decide.
It's always easier to walk to work everyday than maintain your car on the weekend.
@@Leona147741 Unless of course you work 40 miles from home....
is that ok to turn the roborock s8 upside down to clean the mop etc.? or should i empty the water tank / do something else first?
Yes it’s ok, put a towel under as not to scratch the finish
Hi, how did you empty the internal water tank first to be able to flip it upside down?
I am curious, too....I am a lil bit afraid to turn it upside down because I still can 'hear and feel' some water in the built in water tank. Is there any possibility to autoempty water tank on app level? (As you can do it with dust bin once in dock?)
Thanks
It looks like the same problem I have with S7 MaxV Ultra, is going to be on this new S8 vacuum. I never refill the water tank on the vacuum on my own, because it auto fills it, but today, I was looking at the cashback offer, and cleaning it up for pictures, and there is brown build up or mold/mildew in the tank! So I have been cleaning my floors with dirty water! gross! I have found the same brown mildew in my clean water tank too, but Today is the first time I even looked at the vacuum's water tank. Please come out with a better solution to add to the Roborock products! It says you are only allowed to use Roborock cleaning solution, so now I don't know what to do!
Is it possible to remove the dock base, as I want to pack it again for relocation purposes? If so, please tell me how to
Yes the base lifts off which is also for clearing obstructions
@@retrotechandelectronics Hi.. I'm asking about the dock station's base, which we attach/install it to the dock. A thin plastic plate kind of on which Robot boards while parking on to the dock. While installation, it has to be pushed a bit and we hear a clicking sound. But, it's not written anywhere on how to detach it. Please let me know if you can.. thanks..
@@ravindrat1298 again….. I detach it to clear obstructions
@@retrotechandelectronics Okay.. I don't see any kind of object that helps detach the base.. how do you do..
4:50 you make a mistake at this point. You say the “six sided black end should face the rear of the unit”. You mean the square black end.
I can’t fit my black roller back in and I can’t close the lid
Did you install it backwards?
@@retrotechandelectronics no not at all
- it wasn’t a user reassembly error. all fixed though - it turned out the grey pin part had part moved off from the silver pin a few mm when pulling off the hair. So I managed to force it back by pressing the pin back into the ground. And then easy the roller was the right fit again to go back into the casing.
Has anyone been able to access the onboard water tank? Mine is causing an awful smell everytime after mopping. Roborock is not acknowledging this. All they're saying to send it for a warranty service...WTF
The onboard tank is not user serviceable
Had mine for months I never clean it until now lol
Wow, and it still ran good?
Are you happy with the S8?
No regrets so far. Seems to be doing the job.
It seems to be just as time consuming to have a robot than to have an ordinary vacuum cleaner. :-)
No… but ok
Not even close lol. My robot cleans nightly, with deep cleaning 2-3 times a week. This maintenance is only done every 8-12 weeks or so.
I have a new high tech solution with nearly no maintenance: a broom.
Is it automated or manual?
@@retrotechandelectronics it's automated if you're married! 😁
you still have the i7+ i see. what do you use it for, now that you have a roborock?
I gave the i7+ and the braava to my mother and set it up in her new house.
so no detergent needed for this one? Just bought it, found it a bit weird as most Roborock in China has the detergent😅
Omo is recommended
