What reviewers found
Roborock Qrevo Master
- Vacuum Wars: Carpet deep clean score of 79 against a 77 average, obstacle avoidance 10 of 12, navigation 0.81 sq m per minute and about 1,659 sq ft per charge. Near perfect on dried coffee and grape juice, but airflow was below average at 13 cfm. Source
- TechRadar: Picked up 21 g of 22 g on hard floor and about 21 g of 22 g on a medium pile rug, cleaned a milk and soy sauce spill in one pass and ran about 60 min on Max. Ran over dog toys and a charge cable. Subscores: Value 3.5/5, Design 4/5, Performance 4.5/5, App 5/5. Source
Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra
- TechRadar: Strong vacuuming and effective mopping on coffee and dried honey, fast accurate mapping. It got stuck on cables repeatedly, tried to vacuum a sock, and the extending side brush and voice assistant were unreliable. Subscores: Value 3.5/5, Design 4.5/5, Performance 4/5. Source
- Vacuum Wars: Measured 0.18 kPa max suction and 13 CFM airflow, 1.41 min per 1% battery and 0.62 m² per min navigation. Handled dried coffee and grape juice stains with minimal streaks, and its feature score was the highest Vacuum Wars had recorded at the time. Source
