If anyone's curious this is an obvious scam attempt where they purport to sell a high end high quality product with stolen pictures from a real product on their fake website they set up. The price is way too good to be true so people can't resist the amazing deal they think they're getting. The product never arrives and there might even be a fake tracking number involved, especially if PayPal is involved. A significant number of people won't remember or bother going through the refund process so the scammers take off with their money and go find the next product to imitate, buy a new domain name, and do it all again. The FBI is investigating and foreign governments are finally cracking down on these groups in a real way, so the real joke is on them, they just don't know it yet. In the meantime, buy only from reputable sellers or at least through a company with an escrow service and buyer protection offered like eBay or Amazon so if you get ripped off you can easily report it and be made whole.
This video is not sponsored in any way. I bought this thing and really loved it and wanted to make a video. But I will take some sweet Amazon affiliate money when you buy it through this link:amzn.to/3B9VmZz or Buy it without the dock: amzn.to/3avmcAv
Not questioning this statement, but might as well go get some free sponsor $$$ as they’re paying channels now anyway. Linus and other tech channels just got bumped with paid sponsor vids for this exact product. I wish we got some BTS vids of photographing the world style big projects again :’)
This is not an advertisement - I really convince you to choose RobotNox Vacuum Cleaner. Not expensive (well I would say it's actually cheap) and it has lifetime warranty. I personally loved it!
Found another review video of S7 MaxV Ultra, as a big fan of Roborock, it is really excited to see that it becomes more and more popular; besides the basic schedule feature, I found an interesting one--routine:which allows me set a bunch of tasks, easy but so efficient; also, recently, I bought Q5+for my sister for her BDay gift, only vacuuming feature, no mopping but comes with the auto empty dock pure, my sis loves this gift, lol; as a housewife, you gotta need a robotic vacuum to save your time.
Showing how the robot recognizes its positioning is unique compared to all other reviews I've seen. Great review. I LOVE ROBOTS TOO AND CANT WAIT TO GET MY S7 MAXV ULTRA!!! :D
Great thorough review! I appreciate the pros and cons you called out on this model. How do you like the performance after owning it for six months? If this product lasts longer and performs I would highly consider the spend. Weighing the total price paid for three Roombas over time plus the cost to replace the one we have now with the self-emptying model, and anticipating another overpriced underperforming iRobot unitasking product makes me cringe. We started to look at other products and want something quieter and more efficient (washing the floors, quieter operation, and better mapping, are all huge pluses). We currently play "Where's Roomba" since it gets lost and needs to be retrieved manually and returned to the dock, and our home is not that large. Thanks for the fantastic review, I just subscribed and cannot wait to see what other content you have. Thanks, Lynn
9:04 I'd also be concerned re the cost of replacement parts as judging from that screenshot, a rough average would be around 300hrs per part and there seems to be a lot of them. That's not very long if you plan on using it on a regular basis, as I was planning on doing. At $1400.US (or $2600.AUD for me) I just couldn't justify the price on something that appears to wear out so quickly.
Good video! Thanks for the info. Is this a sponsored/affiliated video or an honest review? Curious as how many robot hoovers/cleaning devices have you used? Are they because the product gets sent to you for an affiliate / honest review?
I have the S6MaxV and absolutely love it. At the time when I bought it (2+ yrs ago) it was definitely the most advanced auto vacuum on the market. From the lidar mapping to the AI object detection (only 1 at the time to have this), it was leaps & bounds better than the competition. This, however, brings it to another level. The fact that it can mop and autolift when it senses carpet is insane. That’s one thing I don’t like about the S6 Max is having to map out the no-mop zones so when I run the mop its only vacuuming and mopping non-carpeted areas so I rarely use that feature. This solves that problem. I’d buy it in a heartbeat if it wasn’t so damn expensive though. I was lucky enough to buy mine on prime day a few yrs back for $450 then it shot back up to $699. Also, watch with running these things too much. I was running it TWICE/night (crazy, I know, have a dog so I figured why not?). After about 1.5 yrs, the one wheel stopped working and I had to get it replaced which cost me about $60 and was back within a week…
@@abbyk9289 it’s tremendous. I got it mainly for my dog in case he went the bathroom in the house (puppy at the time) and I didn’t want the vacuum painting my floors with you know what. That never happened thankfully but his toys are left out everywhere and every night when I check my indoor camera, I can see the vacuum going around all the toys on the floor and not pushing them throughout the room. It definitely still nudges a few of them from time to time and isn’t 100% perfect but it does a solid job overall. I’ve still found it to not do great with cords though. Every once in a while it will wrap itself in out iphone charger cord…
Hey thanks for the great video. I just discovered your channel. I burst out laughing when you said it’s almost like starting a leaf blower inside your house.
Do you think it'd be possible to put the S7 brush on a S5max? The sides seems exactly the same, so that would be just a question of overall size. As the S7 brush handles hairs in a much better way, that would make a great upgrade for the S5max for a very small price :) that would be awesome if you could try that please!
Another question, do these things come with any spare sparts, it seems there are a bunch of wearing parts and consumables , I would imagine you would buy a kit of the spares ?
I'm a sucker for gadgets lol. I have to admit, my wife is really not. Which is why she was so against us buying a robot vacuum for the house. However, after RobotNox went out of their way to explain how the vacuuming process worked and how it could help us save time on our cleaning schedule, she felt much more comfortable with the purchase.
I have a question. I noticed white lines and scratches on the robot front bumper, because it usually hits walls,furniture,etc.. while cleaning the room. How you protect it? I tried to clean it, but they are still there. Thanks
I tried roborock S7 and when I use mop, it leaves its wheels marks on my hard wood floor. Any idea what I am doing wrong, since I don't see this being reported in any of the reviews anywhere?
I wonder if someone could 3d print a canister 🤔 I’ll investigate and see if I can come up with something. I mean, dyson uses canisters. I’m sure something could be designed for this.
Welcome to 2016 when Neato already used lidar and it was amazing at cleaning... My Neato d75 already did all that except the mop and the discharge station. And yes it was incredible to see
Eufy has the L35+ on sale now for $300. It has auto empty and mopping and LIDAR. Downside is that the mopping on it just drags around a pad and you have to set that up eafh time.
I'm currently thinking of getting rid of my i7+, which is good but lacks especially the mopping feature. It's getting louder and it's performance gets worse even though, I'm doing anything I can to maintain it and have it clean itself - it also can't really charge itself anymore and I've got no clue why (positioning on the dock seems to be wrong or whatever even though it's all cleaned properly). It's just showing it's age, I guess. Also, I do not like that it needs lights. Sure, most of my lights are smart and with simple integrations, the lights are being turned on and off whenever in need. But I do live in a basement. Naturally, my flat is rather dark in some parts and it's just a pain. Especially if the integrations or lights fail for whatever reason. Been looking for a replacement and the Roborock S7 MaxV seems to be one of the best if not the best robot vac currently on the market. Considering it's price, I'd say for the features, it's actually rather cheap (or okay). The i7+ was roughly €850€ and a dedicated (!) mopping bot (same brand because of their ecosystem lol) would be at least €300€-€400€. So, all in all, I'd use up space for two bots and still would've paid a little less compared to this. The price is easily justified for me by the convenience features like auto mop cleaning and emptying as well as refilling of water. Sure, it's a premium bot but I've come to love these things. Really. I just love that I can invite people over whenever I want and know that my flat is clean enough most times. I love that I can be away and come back to a vacuumed flat. My entrance and kitchen are vacuumed daily. It's just amazing. For my mom, it has been a pleasure, too. She's got a cat and... Yeah, they do leave debris behind - it's a noticeable difference.
Really liked this review. I have two 3 year-old S6 models, one for each floor in the house. They are both remarkable, and now I'm ready to move on. Trying to decide between the S7 MaxV Ultral and the S8 (to be released soon). So far, I think the S7 wins. I was amazed to see that you easily mapped the second floor, but I just wanted to verify with you: After I've mapped the first floor, I can simply move the unit to the second floor for mapping. I won't need to bring the docking unit with it? Thanks very much!
@@fatguyonalittlebike3336 When you are 75 years old, you'll understand why you'd like a model that does both vacuuming and floor washing. The S6's have been passed on to friends who have never had a robot vacuum. Not that anyone needs your approval. Not that everyone needs to make value judgements on other people's business.
Very enthusiastic and thorough review of the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra. Too bad that you didn't test the mopping feature to its limits. I'm not convinced that any robot mop without rotating brushes can effectively mop a dirty floor.
someone tested the vibrating mop of the roborock s7 plus against rotating mop of narwal t10. surprisingly, vibrating one give better result and less visible mopping mark. the video is somewhere on youtube
@@izzerstennisscorekeeper3971 Yes, I did buy it. No robot will be very good at large spills, but for the smaller, everyday kinds of sticky patches, it really does clean it up. It doesn't push dirt around at all.
Is this a complete overkill for a 36 square meters apartment? I hate vacuuming, so I went into a rabbit hole with robot vacuums and fount this. The auto refill thing looks amazing to me.
Just a heads up, I'm not sure if you're supposed to put any cleaning solution for mopping, as I remember it was strictly water only, but it might have changed for the S7MaxV model, and I might be wrong.
I love my S5 Max as well, would not want to give it back. Looking forward to the day, when I will buy a more advanced one, but I hope that mine will last for a couple more yours. FYI if the robotic gets stuck on a place more than once it will avoid it. Mine tried to move up on my tabelfeet at te beginning but never done it again since than.
Now this is a robot vacuum I've been waiting for, it's only yet to evolve a tad more like it needs to be 2 to 3 times as high to hold sonar for house pets, 2 lidar cameras for depth perception of smaller objects or odd floors and able to decipher curtains over objects. larger battery with UV light. Touch sensors on the brushes, heck maybe even a claw that comes out to move little things onto the back of it. Oh yeah and be under 1,000. 😉
The price is really what's holding these things back, even a cheap robo vacuum that just does a shoddy job of quickly vacuuming the main parts of your house costs enough to pay a cleaner to come by for a few hours twice a month for a long while. These more expensive ones even more so, and they still can't replace a cleaner who can clean on top of and inside of things in your house.
It helps reduce your weekly workload, which is the point. I’m iffy on hiring outside help, as I try to limit how many outsiders know about my expensive things. You could easily end up with the wrong type, who might tip off her no-good thieving BF. Roborock will give more peace of mind, as you can always use it to scope out your house while away - which is great in conjunction with a dedicated security system.
For me a robot vac/mop like this didnt make sense until I got pets. With pets I need to clean the floor a lot more than other cleaning tasks. At least every other day, it wouldnt make sense to hire a cleaner that often just to sweep/mop.
I got a modestly cheap vacuum robot (300€, roughly the same in $) and unless you pay the cleaner 1$ pro time, it costs less. Sure, it doesn't mop or empties itself (as if we couldn't do that anyway), the only thing is it lacks mapping. In my opinion it makes a huge difference. Not saying it's too much of a hassle without it, I just pick things on the floor (including carpets which I make it vacuum before) and set the Virtual Wall and objects in places where it gets stuck, but it would be nicer to just start it without worrying. Anyway, it does its job, no more dust and dirt on the floor, and no more bending and having to fatigue with the deafening sound of the vacuum in my ears.
Do these things have like some sort of night light on them so you can see them at night ? We have some toilet runs in the middle of the night by a family member , and she’s usually fairly out of it due to sleeping pills , the device would be hard to see at night otherwise it would seem.
That’s an idea! They already have special laser cleaning tools for quickly getting rid of rust .. Maybe someone could take that idea and adapt it for general purpose cleaning.
For that price it should have an inboard self cleaning mop like the dreame l10s ultra, without the mop my eufy l60 has all the same features for 300 bucks.
That generated QR code it's your mobile gate and can take all your passwords from your phone, data and accounts, not only wi-fi password Don''t trust in robots and aplications. Also cleaning robots can record video and voice and you never know ;)
Xiaomi Robot Vacuum Mop 2 Pro has 80% these features for about 20% of the price (I got it for around $300): ► mops and/or vacuums with 5000 Pa (S7 Max is 5100Pa) ► does various mopping patterns and shakes/vibrates the mopping pad to scrub the floor ► lidar took 10 minutes to map my 100m² house marking the walls and furnitures ► works in the dark ► can handle 5 floors ► seems to have the same software as the s7max moving around smartly and gently, not bumping into things ► can start from any point of the mapped house ► I can mark no-go and no-mop areas ► I can control the order of rooms and type of action, suction power, amount of water used for each room ► it also provides status report via voice in 10 selectable languages (its English has a funny very very heavy Asian accent though) No dock and no camera though, but question whether they are worth the extra $1300 you paid for the S7MaxV
@@coredadventure1 $700 for a Mop 2 Pro?? It's 112,000 HUF which comes to $278 as of today. I am talking abou tthe model MJST1SHW (Exact name = Mi Robot Vacuum-Mop 2 Pro)
I’ll never purchase or spend $2100 on a cleaning kit that doesn’t even have a storefront. I just imagine how much fun it is to try to get warranty work done.
Mang i really wanted on until to said and i respected that you are really real and truthful about things especially the price but mang i would love to get one but Bro the price is crazy as you say just to clean your floor but one day we all can be able to buy one just like a mop/broom/vacuum in the future great video ps hope there's a giveaway one day too guys and girls one day
