Roborock S7 vs eufy RoboVac X8

Roborock recommends cleaning this every two weeks, so that's something I'll look to do more often. The sensors need to be wiped clean after approximat...

The vacuum itself incurs relatively low recurring costs and feels well-built. However, it does have quite a few parts that need periodic cleaning. It lacks an allergen-trapping HEPA filter, which could be a disappointment if you have a pet that sheds heavily. If you're looking for an exceedingly affordable robot vacuum, the eufy Robovac 25C is worth a look

We’ve had the Roborock S7 for 7 weeks on our main floor which is all hardwood and a few area rugs. I’m currently trial running several auto-empty vacs for our upstairs which has our 4 bedrooms and all carpet. Currently a few weeks into the Roomba S9+ with empty bin and let me just say… while it does a good job picking up on our low rise carpet, the app and technology feels about 5 years behind the Roborock tech and app. If anyone cares about specifics feel free to ask but I’m constantly surprised how poor the app and tech work

Also the X8 is going to a hidden place to charge and I want to ask it to come out for a cleaning.

But no, it did get some hair clogged when I tried to empty it in that test, but it did just fine after that big test and was able to consistently clea...

I have no idea where all this dust is coming from but it is obviously no longer floating around. The dust bin has a nice filter in it to keep the dust from going back into the air and even a little brush to clean the filter off each time. It slides out and back in easily without disturbing the main unit. While not the cheapest robovac you can find, you do get what you pay for

This thing vacuums so much faster and better than the irobot and the mopping feature is amazing compared to the braava m6. It mops and scrubs stains the m6 couldn't in a faster time.

Love that it has four suction modes, love that the battery life is ridiculously good - it can run for like 2 hours. Love that I can set it to automatically run 5x a day if I want, or to send it out wherever on command. And maybe my absolute favorite thing: it runs in a back and forth motion so I know it’s hitting every inch of floor every night. You can make it do multiple passes of the same area, also - so under the dining table can get cleaned 3x automatically

I tried the roborock s7 and between it not being able to back of its own dock, being obsessed with ramming into its own dock, getting stuck anytime it hit anything, not picking my anything off the carpet, it had air vents on the side (which I wasn’t used to coming from roomba) that sounds like a jet engine no matter what the speed setting was. I was already annoyed and the sound of a mini jet engine going through the house sent me over the edge in frustration! Am I to expect the same thing from the Deebot t8?

(really annoying part). - and lastly, it's very loud. when I run it, it scares my bunny.

Waiting for this thing to break down which probably won’t be a long time from now so I can purchase a upgraded eufy. Roborock suction isint that great either. I recently ordered a replacement battery for my eufy because the Roborock wasn’t doing a good job and put them to work at the same time for the same amount of time and looked at which one collected more dirt and take a wild guess which one did it better. Yep the less then $200 4 year old eufy

Suction power, mapping And movement I give a 3 maybe 4. It doesn’t finish my floors like my d brand did which lasted me 6 years. Bought this from Reading reviews and not too happy with it. I’m Sending it back

This is not true. If you want your Roborock S7 to perform multiple passes in some or all rooms, YOU will have to do so manually in the app. This is not something that can be done via the Schedule-Menu as of 2022-03-22. Bin design is SMALL: if you have the auto-empty base it will not matter, but if you buy this as a stand-alone unit you will notice the need to empty it

My only complaint is that right front side brush is not properly integrated into the overall design. The brush ALWAYS pushes the charging stand out of the way and fails to dock. Without the side brush both machines dock as they should.

The Roborock S7 has exceeded my expectations plus some! I went from sweeping everyday to about once a week. The mopping function leaves a bit to be desired but thats expected. Overall, this vacuum does what it’s meant to do which is make my life easier. I select which rooms I want cleaned and it does the rest

The X8 is a big upgrade in a lot of ways, not least of which is its much-improved suction power. In addition to that and the mapping capability, being able to control the machine completely with a smart phone app via WiFi makes it far easier to use than the older model, which cleaned (well) by making random sweeps throughout the floor area. This unit creates and follows a map of a room or an entire floor. It's a testament to Eufy's quality that we moved the original unit to another floor and are still using it regularly
