Frequently Asked Questions

Is Roborock a Good Brand of Vacuum?

Absolutely! Roborock has rapidly established itself as a frontrunner in the robot vacuum industry. When people talk about innovation, efficiency, and reliability in robotic cleaning, Roborock is often a name that pops up. Their commitment to integrating state-of-the-art technology, combined with their understanding of user needs, makes their offerings not just functional but also user-friendly. 

From the impressive suction capabilities to their smart navigation systems, Roborock vacuums epitomise excellence. Moreover, their consistently high rankings in market comparisons and glowing customer reviews are a testament to their quality. If you're seeking a blend of sophistication, performance, and durability in your robot vacuum, Roborock is undoubtedly a brand worth considering.

Is Roborock Owned by Xiaomi?

Yes, it's a common misconception, but Roborock and Xiaomi have a connection. Roborock is indeed its own independent brand, but its relationship with Xiaomi began when Xiaomi helped fund Roborock's initial endeavours. The first Roborock vacuum was launched under the Xiaomi umbrella, causing many to believe it was a Xiaomi product. 

However, as Roborock grew and solidified its position in the market, it started producing and branding its products independently. So, while they had collaborative beginnings, Roborock operates as its own entity distinct from Xiaomi. Yet, the influence of Xiaomi's commitment to quality and innovation can be seen in Roborock's top-notch products.

What Are the Best Models of Roborock in 2023?

Roborock's reputation for producing class-leading robot vacuums exists for a reason, and there’s no shortage of examples available in their 2023 lineup. However, the "best" model for you depends entirely on what you’re looking for.

If you're after the crème de la crème of robot vacuums, the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra is a hard contender to beat. Its all-in-one RockDock™ Ultra promises a zero-maintenance experience, revolutionising cleaning.

On the other hand, for those looking for a blend of affordability and efficiency, the Roborock Q7 Max Robot Vacuum Cleaner is a steal. With an upgraded 4200Pa suction, it's designed to seamlessly vacuum and mop.

What Are the Differences Between Roborock S and Q Series?

The S and Q series from Roborock are both exemplary robot vacuums. The main difference between them is their price point. Naturally, this means there are also some differences in the features they offer. 

Positioning: The S series represents Roborock's premium range with advanced features. In contrast, the Q series is more budget-friendly, delivering solid performance at a lower cost.

Key Features: The S series boasts advanced attributes like self-washing, powerful suction, and intricate mapping technology. The Q series offers essential functions like 2-in-1 vacuuming and mopping, and app control.

Design: S models sport a sleek, modern design, reflecting their high-end status. The Q series is slightly more functional, but if you look at them side by side, there’s very little to tell them apart in this category.

Navigation: While the S series utilises Roborock's advanced navigation for precision cleaning, the Q series might employ a slightly toned-down version.

Smart Integration: The S series offers enhanced integration with smart home systems for a superior user experience, whereas the Q series provides basic smart features.

Can I Use Roborock Every Day?

Absolutely! Roborock robot vacuums are designed for daily use. With their durable build and efficient cleaning mechanisms, you can confidently set them to run every day, ensuring a consistently clean home. This is especially useful for households with pets or allergy sufferers, daily vacuuming can make a notable difference in air quality and cleanliness. 

Roborock's intelligent mapping and scheduling features in their app make it a breeze to set up regular cleaning routines. But as with any machine, regular maintenance—like emptying the dustbin or cleaning the brushes—will help prolong the life of your Roborock. This is especially important if you’re going to your bot every day.

Is Roborock S8 Good for Hardwood Floors?

Absolutely! The Roborock S8 is particularly adept at handling hardwood floors. Its advanced sensors and intelligent algorithms adjust the suction power accordingly, ensuring it picks up debris without scratching or damaging the surface. The DuoRoller Riser™ brush is designed to efficiently capture dirt and dust without getting tangled or leaving marks. 

Additionally, the VibraRise® 2.0 mopping system can provide a gentle clean to hardwood, removing light stains or spills. And the robot's rubberised wheels help it glide along without leaving scuff marks. Also, with its precise obstacle detection and avoidance capabilities, the S8 ensures it won't harm your precious hardwood. So if your home has hardwood floors, you can feel comfortable in the knowledge that the S8 is more than up to the task.

Does Roborock Stop Mopping on Carpet?

Yes, many Roborock models, including the S8, come with carpet detection technology. When the robot detects it's on a carpet, it automatically lifts its mopping pad to avoid dampening your carpet. This smart feature ensures that while mopping hard surfaces, the robot won't inadvertently wet your rugs or carpets. In addition, when the robot vacuum senses the carpet beneath it, it can also boost its suction power for a more effective clean. 

Using advanced sensors and intelligent algorithms, Roborock vacuums seamlessly transition between different floor types, ensuring optimal cleaning performance without the risk of damaging or wetting inappropriate surfaces. So you can confidently run a Roborock cleaning cycle without having to manually intervene or section off carpeted areas.

Can You Use the Roborock Without a Bag?

Certainly! Most Roborock robot vacuums are designed with a built-in dustbin that collects dirt, debris, and hair as they clean. You can easily empty the contents of this dustbin after a cleaning session. However, some of the newer Roborock models, especially those with the self-emptying feature, use disposable dust bags in their docking stations. 

These bags collect the dirt the robot vacuum transfers when it docks. While the robot itself doesn't need a bag to operate, if you want to utilise the self-emptying feature, you'd need to use the appropriate bag in the dock. That said, for regular cleaning and manual emptying, the dustbin inside the Roborock robot is all you need.
