Roborock QRevo S5V Review: 12,000Pa Suction, FlexiArm Edge Mopping & Smart Dock

The Roborock QRevo S5V is a high-end robot vacuum and mop combo designed for fully automated, hands-off floor cleaning. Packing 12,000 Pa HyperForce suction, a triple anti-tangle brush system, and innovative mopping features (including dual spinning mop pads and an extendable FlexiArm for edge cleaning), the QRevo S5V represents one of Roborock’s most powerful mid-range models. Its all-in-one smart dock automatically empties the dustbin, washes and dries the mop pads, refills the water tank, and even supports off-peak charging. With LiDAR navigation, multi-floor mapping, and app controls, this robot is built to handle large homes and pet hair with minimal user intervention. In this deep review, we’ll explore its design, features, and real-world performance in detail.

Key Features:

Advanced App Control: Roborock app lets you schedule cleanings, set no-go zones, adjust suction and water levels (30 levels), and integrate with Alexa/Google Home/Siri.

Design and Build Quality

The Roborock QRevo S5V has a sleek matte-black finish and measures about 13.8 x 13.9 x 3.8 inches (350 x 352 x 96 mm), with the spinning mop pads visible on the underside. The robot is relatively heavy at 11.6 kg (25.6 lbs) including its water reservoirs and brush assembly, reflecting the robust materials and large battery inside. Unlike many lower-tier vacuums, the Qrevo S5V uses thick, sturdy plastic panels and a reinforced chassis, giving it a premium feel. The top houses a low-profile 360° LiDAR turret (only slightly raised to remain under clearance of typical furniture), along with a front-mounted structured-light obstacle sensor.

On the underside, you’ll find two magnetic mounting points for the removable spinning mop pads (plus cloth filters for them), a floating side brush (rubber-coated and flexibly sprung), and the DuoDivide main brush assembly. The DuoDivide main brush consists of two small counter-rotating rubber rollers separated by a gap, surrounded by sweeping rubber blades. This design adapts to uneven floors and resists clogging from hair. Both mop pads and brushes are easy to detach for cleaning or replacement: the mop pads simply pull off their magnetic bases, while the main brush pulls out after releasing latches.

The dustbin compartment is accessed by lifting the top cover. It holds a small internal dustbin with a washable filter, though thanks to the self-emptying dock this internal bin rarely needs manual emptying. Overall, the Qrevo S5V’s build is solid, but the robot’s heavy weight makes it less convenient to carry between floors. The included multifunctional dockis also large (the dock measures about 19 x 13 x 20 inches) and should be placed against a wall with some clearance. Its plastic dock base features integrated water tanks and a large compartment for the dust bag, all enclosed in a tidy tower that matches the robot’s design. The dock feels substantial (heavy-duty plastic) and its removable base plate allows easy cleaning of any trapped dirt.

Suction Power and Brush System

A standout feature of the Qrevo S5V is its HyperForce 12,000 Pa suction. This is among the strongest for robot vacuums as of 2025. The high suction is driven by an improved brushless motor that draws air through the dual-roller brush housing and into the dust bin. Roborock claims that at maximum power the brush motor RPM increases by 10%, further boosting pickup. In practice, the 12,000 Pa force is very effective at pulling out embedded debris from carpets and crevices in hard floors. Even fine dust and bits of sand are lifted up rather than just moved around.

Brush Design (Triple Anti-Tangle System): The main brush system is carefully engineered to handle hair. The DuoDivide double brush rollers (rubber, bristle-free) spin in opposite directions and have spiral blades that funnel hair toward the bin inlet. Because the rollers are grooved and spaced, long hair tends to pass through rather than wrap around, making tangles rare. Combined with the floating side brush (which is rubberized and canted), this forms Roborock’s Triple Anti-Tangle System. In fact, Roborock notes a 100% hair removal (and 0% tangling) rate certified in lab tests for this setup. In our experience, most normal household hair (pet fur, human hair) does not clog the brush, though heavy pet fur on a thick carpet may require occasional manual cleaning of the roller.

For edge and corner cleaning, the single side brush throws debris inward. Importantly, this side brush is designed without bristles (an arc-shaped rubber brush) to avoid knotting hair. It’s detachable (screws on with one screw), and while removing it requires a screwdriver, it does a clean job of pushing dirt away from walls. Unlike some cheaper models, the Qrevo S5V does not use a vibrating single-pad mop or a simple cloth – it’s built around these dual spinning pads and brush rollers. The overall effect is that it vacuums very thoroughly: our tests (and reviews from analysts) confirm excellent pickup on hard floors and high-pile carpets. On low-pile carpet, pickup of large debris is very good, but like many vacuums, very fine and sticky dust may require multiple passes (especially if not in Turbo mode).

One potential drawback is that the Qrevo S5V cannot lift its brush rollers out of the way during mopping (unlike some premium S-series models), so in hybrid mode it relies on lifting the mops only (the robot’s carpet sensing lifts the mops by ~10 mm). Still, for pure vacuuming tasks, this machine is among the best in its tier. It also performs impressively well when handling granules, crumbs, and small pellets thanks to the strong suction and rollers working together.

Advanced Mopping System

Mopping is a major focus of the Qrevo S5V’s design. Instead of a flat oscillating pad (as on some older robots), it uses two motor-driven spinning mop pads mounted on the underside. These pads rotate at up to 200 revolutions per minute, scrubbing away dried stains and grime more effectively than a static cloth. The pads are circular discs (about 7 inches diameter) with cloth covers that attach via Velcro. During a cleaning run, the rotating pads press gently against the floor, mimicking a vigorous hand-mopping action.

You can adjust the water flow to these pads through the app with 30 precise levels, from a light mist (for moisture-sensitive floors) to a heavy wet scrub. There are also presets (Low, Medium, High, Custom) for convenience. The robot can vacuum and mop simultaneously. In practice, you can set up a cleaning job to both vacuum carpets and mop hard floors in one go. Thanks to the 10 mm lift, once the Qrevo S5V senses a carpet, it automatically lifts the mop pads to avoid wetting the rug. This auto mop lifting means you don’t have to remove the pads when switching between surfaces.

The FlexiArm Edge Mopping is a special innovation: each spinning mop pad is mounted on an extendable arm. When the robot approaches corners or furniture legs, motors push the arms outward so the pads can reach deep into right angles or around chair legs. This helps clean areas that standard robots miss, such as the very corner of a room or along baseboards. In effect, the robot’s cleaning footprint widens at edges: it can easily wipe behind a couch leg or into a 90-degree nook that a fixed pad would skip. The FlexiArm action happens automatically as needed, requiring no user adjustment.

The onboard water supply for mopping comes from the dock. The Qrevo S5V has an internal clean water tank (detachable within the robot), which is automatically refilled when it returns to the dock before a mop run. You manually fill the dock’s clean-water reservoir (usually with water or a mild detergent solution). According to Roborock, a full clean-water tank allows uninterrupted mopping for up to about 400 m² (4,305 sq ft), which is ample for most homes. After a mopping session, any dirty water and loose debris are drained into the dock’s dirty-water tank (about 5 liters capacity).

After mopping, the dock runs a self-cleaning cycle on the pads: it first pre-washes them by gently pressing with the mop scrapers, then rinses with fresh water from the clean tank, and finally spins them at high speed to remove most moisture. While it doesn’t use hot water for washing (just warm air for drying), the multi-step wash-cycle does a good job. The dock then blows warm air (~45°C) to fully dry the pads, preventing mildew and odors. Users should still wash the pads occasionally, but thanks to the dock most cleaning is automatic. Overall, the mopping is very effective – reviewers have noted that the Qrevo S5V often outperforms many competitors at stain removal due to the scrubbing pads and FlexiArm reach.

All-in-One Smart Dock

The multifunctional dock is a highlight that elevates the Qrevo S5V from a simple robot to an almost maintenance-free system. This single station handles four key tasks:

Auto-Empty Dustbin: After each cleaning, the dock will vacuum the robot’s built-in dustbin, sucking debris into a large 2.7 liter disposable bag (rated E12 filter). Roborock says this can hold up to 7 weeks of dirt. Emptying is fast and automatic – the user only needs to remove and replace the bag every month or two, depending on use. The dock automatically seals the bag when removed to trap dust. This drastically reduces how often you interact with the vacuum.
Self-Washing & Drying Mops: As described above, the dock washes the robot’s mop pads after a mop cycle and then uses warm air to dry them. The station has a detachable base plate for easy cleaning of any accumulated grime and a replaceable tank filter to catch debris.
Water Tank Refilling: The dock houses a clean water tank and a separate dirty water tank. You fill the clean tank with water (and detergent if used). The robot replenishes its mop reservoir from this tank before each run. Meanwhile, spent water goes to the dirty tank. Periodically you will need to pour out the dirty tank and replace the clean water. The dock’s design makes this user-friendly: each tank has a handle and clear markings, and Roborock recommends using only the included cleaning solution to avoid plastic damage.
Fast & Off-Peak Charging: The station acts as the charging base. It supports up to 30% faster charging than older Roborocks (so the battery charges more quickly when needed). Importantly, it also has a feature to delay charging to off-peak electricity hours (often nighttime). You can enable this in the app so the robot only draws power during cheap-rate hours, saving on energy costs.

The dock is quite tall (over 22 inches high), so it’s visible as a piece of furniture. It’s best placed in a corner or open area to allow clearance. Its build quality is solid but, as noted by reviewers, it requires a fair amount of space. It is also relatively noisy during the emptying cycle (around 73 dB) and wash cycle, so it might be best scheduled when you’re not sleeping in the same room. Once the station completes an auto-empty and wash, the robot is reset and charging for the next run. In practice, this all-in-one automation means most users only need to handle emptying the trash bag every few weeks, refilling water, and the occasional pad cleaning. It lives up to Roborock’s “set it and forget it” vision for robot cleaning.

Navigation and Obstacle Avoidance

For mapping and navigation, the Qrevo S5V uses PreciSense LiDAR technology. A 360° laser scanner on top spins to create an extremely accurate floor plan of your home. This laser mapping allows the robot to plan efficient routes, cover rooms in orderly zig-zags, and avoid missing spots. The LiDAR sensor is mounted on the robot’s top, which adds a few centimeters to its height but ensures wide coverage. In tests, this gave the Qrevo S5V above-average navigation efficiency (covering about 0.82 m² per second) and room coverage per charge (around 1,243 square feet) . It also enables storing multiple floor maps (up to 4), so the robot can automatically recognize different levels of a house and recall the correct map.

For obstacle avoidance, Roborock employs what it calls Reactive Tech. This is a structured-light system (an infrared depth sensor) mounted at the front of the robot. Unlike camera-based AI avoidance on some high-end vacuums, Reactive Tech shines light to detect objects down to a few centimeters tall. It can usually spot furniture legs, shoes, socks, cables, or pet bowls and steer around them. There is also a feature in the app that will highlight frequently stuck areas and suggest no-go zones automatically.

In day-to-day use, this means the Qrevo S5V rarely runs into obvious obstacles; it tends to slow down or reroute when encountering clutter. However, independent tests and user feedback have noted that this 3D sensing is far less sophisticated than a true camera-based system. It can miss thin objects or see through dark contrasts poorly. In difficult tests, the S5V only avoided a small fraction of obstacles (roughly 25% of tested items) , which is well below average. Practically, it means you should still clear tiny objects (like wires) from the floor if possible and make use of the app’s virtual no-go zones for tricky spots. The absence of a camera also means no video or pet-photo features. In the Roborock app, the S5V’s map controls are slightly more limited than flagship models – some advanced pet or video functions simply aren’t present. That said, standard features like no-go lines, zoning, and room splitting work normally with the LiDAR maps.

The Qrevo S5V also has respectable climbing ability. It can cross thresholds and door lips up to about 20 mm (0.8 inches) high, so it usually handles transitions between hard floor and rug. Multiple omnidirectional wheels help it maneuver and avoid getting stuck under furniture. Overall, with a bit of initial tidying and the map setup, the navigation and avoidance are fully capable for most homes, keeping the robot moving and covering ground intelligently.

Smart App Control and Features

The Roborock Qrevo S5V can be controlled through the Roborock smartphone app (iOS/Android), which provides full customization and scheduling. Initial setup involves connecting to your home Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz only) and running a map. In the app you can:

Schedule Cleanings: Set up daily or weekly cleaning schedules (even at specific times each day). You can have the robot clean particular rooms, do full-house cleans, or set up a cleaning routine that covers “Zones” in sequence.
No-Go and Target Zones: Draw virtual barriers, “no-go” or “no-mop” zones on the map to block off areas (like pet areas or carpeted sections). These zones are respected each cleaning.
Room/Zone Customization: Define each room as a zone and create custom cleaning modes (e.g. name a “Kitchen Clean” scene). However, one minor inconvenience is that each room’s default clean mode (vacuum only or vacuum+wet-mop) must be set in the map’s room settings and is not easily toggled on the fly. (Some users work around this by creating multiple scenes.)
Suction & Water Level: Adjust vacuum suction power (Quiet, Balanced, Turbo, Max, Max+) and mopping water flow (1-30 levels). The app also allows manual boost for carpets or focusing on spills.
SmartPlan AI: The S5V supports Roborock’s SmartPlan. With one tap, the robot will analyze the current map to automatically determine an efficient cleaning sequence and choose suitable modes for each room.
Carpet Settings: You can set carpet-specific behaviors, like “Carpet Boost” (auto increase suction) or “Deep Clean” where it will prioritize rugs. It also allows manual lift of the mop for all carpets if needed.
Multi-Map Storage: The S5V can remember up to 4 floor plans. When you physically move the robot to a different floor, it recognizes the new map and switches automatically.
Remote Control & Voice: You can start, stop, dock, or direct the robot via the app even when away from home. The S5V also works with voice assistants – you can say “Alexa, start cleaning” or use Siri Shortcuts on iOS. (Support for Google Home and Alexa is built-in.)
Off-Peak Charging: Through the app you can specify a charging window (e.g. 2AM-5AM) so the dock only recharges the robot during off-peak electricity hours.
Offline Use: All core functions can be accessed without an internet cloud, but for full features the app requires connectivity.

In daily use, the app is generally smooth. One small quirk: unlike some premium Roborock models, the S5V’s app interface omits a few features (such as pet tracking or detailed camera-zone edits), reflecting its mid-range positioning. Some users found the need to restore or maintain maps occasionally, but Roborock provides map backup/restore in the app. The “Suggested No-Go Zones” feature can be handy, as it will flag areas under furniture or near obstacles that the robot might trap itself in, so you can accept those suggestions. Overall, the connectivity and intelligence are robust: scheduling, monitoring, and customizing a clean is very straightforward once the map is set.

Cleaning Performance and Results

In testing and real use, the Roborock Qrevo S5V proves to be a very capable cleaner. On hard floors (tile, wood, laminate), its 12,000 Pa suction and spinning brushes deliver excellent pickup. We noticed the floor left sparkling: crumbs, cereal, and even fine dust were cleared with one pass. The powerful airflow (around 18 CFM as per lab tests) means even sand in grout and kitty litter bits are lifted effectively. The dual spinning mops provide a thorough swab – dried spills and stains (coffee, juice, etc.) are largely removed with 1 or 2 passes. Compared to older generation vacuums, the effect of the rotating scrub is noticeably better.

On area rugs and carpets, results depend on pile height. The DuoDivide brush system is especially well-suited to long-haired mess (pet fur, human hair) on medium/high pile: hair wraps minimally and is swept up into the bin. For high-pile carpets, the S5V is solid – big debris is lifted, though very small, embedded particles may take an extra pass. On low-pile carpet, performance is good but not class-leading: it picks up cereal, rice, and sand well, but very fine glitter or carpet fiber dust can linger on the first pass. (Part of this is due to the single-rubber-roller design; dual-roller vacuums sometimes edge out rubber-only brushrolls in fine particle pick-up.) Pet hair: on hard floors it grabs pet fur effortlessly, but on low-pile carpets some hair may be left behind. If pet hair on shaggy rugs is a priority, the Qrevo S5V is decent but there are higher-end models with dual soft-rollers that pick up fur even better.

Noise levels are very reasonable. At top suction (Max+), it measured in the mid-50s dB on bare floors and about 60 dB on carpet – sufficiently quiet that it can run at night with minimal disturbance (some users run it while sleeping). In quieter modes it’s extremely subdued (around 53 dB in Quiet mode). The dock’s auto-empty cycle is louder (70+ dB) but is brief. The vacuum also vibrates and beeps softly during operation, but nothing overly intrusive.

In terms of coverage and thoroughness, the Qrevo S5V does an admirable job. Thanks to LiDAR, it cleans methodically with virtually no missed spots (apart from corners only reached by the FlexiArm, which it usually catches). It does bump lightly into walls and furniture edges as it maneuvers, but its navigation re-adjusts immediately. The scheduled or spot clean modes allow you to quickly target messy areas. Cleaning around chair legs and under couches is smooth – the robot’s low profile lets it reach under most furniture (96 mm height).

One cleaning quirk: if you have many small rugs or runner mats, the Qrevo S5V may initially treat them as obstacles (especially if they have tassels). In testing, it sometimes avoided a runner until it was lifted onto it. In that case you can mark a rug as “carpet” in the map settings so the robot knows to drive over it. Once recognized, it will vacuum right over low-profile rugs as intended.

Overall, the cleaning results are excellent for a machine at this price. It especially shines at mopping performance – independent tests showed it outdid several competitors at stain removal, thanks to the dual spin pads and strong scrubbing action . Hard floors end up with a streak-free finish most of the time. When using the correct water flow and solution, floor surfaces dry clean and rarely need hand mopping afterward.

Battery Life and Coverage

The Qrevo S5V uses a 5200 mAh Li-ion battery (standard in Roborock’s premium models). In practice, this translates to roughly 3 hours (180 minutes) of runtime on the lowest (‘Quiet’) setting, and about 100 minutes on the highest(‘Max+’) setting. In mixed-mode cleaning (balancing suction and mop work), you can expect a few hours per charge. This is sufficient for most homes – for example, Roborock’s own tests estimate it can cover ~1,200–1,300 square feet (110–120 m²) in a single run . Some long-running users have reported cleaning 1,800+ sq ft over multiple days without remapping, meaning the robot goes to recharge as needed and then resumes cleaning where it left off (an auto-resume feature).

Charging time is faster than older models (roughly 2-3 hours to full), thanks to the fast-charge support. The off-peak scheduling option helps minimize electricity costs, as you can have it recharge during the night economy hours.

When the battery is low, the robot automatically returns to the dock to recharge. Thanks to the stored map, it will later resume the interrupted cleaning job precisely at the point where it paused. (This “auto-resume” works seamlessly with repeated cleaning sessions until the job is done.) If you manually interrupt cleaning and want to use temporary cleaning, the robot will again return and resume the main job afterward.

One tip: like many LiDAR robots, the Qrevo S5V can safely stay on charge after finishing. It will keep its maps and settings between sessions and can be summoned at any time for an on-demand spot clean.

Maintenance and Upkeep

The Qrevo S5V’s maintenance is minimal compared to many robots, thanks largely to its smart dock, but there are still a few tasks you’ll do every now and then:

Empty Dust Bag: The 2.7 L dock bag should be replaced every few weeks or when full. There’s a plastic collar latch on the bag housing, and the bag automatically seals when removed to prevent spills. Most dirt is contained here, so you won’t touch the robot’s bin often.
Filter Maintenance: The robot’s internal dustbin filter (E12 HEPA) can be taken out and rinsed under water. Do this whenever the filter turns gray (perhaps monthly). Let it dry 24 hours before reinstalling. The dock’s dust bag has its own integrated filter and needs no cleaning.
Brush and Rollers: The DuoDivide brush can be pulled out (release clips underneath) for cleaning. Large hair wraps are rare, but if you see any debris threads, simply wipe them off. The side brush and wheels are also removable. The omnidirectional front wheel can accumulate hair over months, so you might want to unclog that occasionally (rinse and air-dry it too).
Mop Pads: The cloth mop pads detach for hand washing. The dock does most of the cleaning, but you should rinse or replace them when they get dirty or every few months for hygiene. The spinners and magnet plates are easy to clean off the robot.
Water Tanks: Periodically empty the dock’s dirty-water reservoir (about 5 L). Rinse it to avoid mold. Refill the clean-water tank in the dock as needed with fresh water and Roborock’s cleaning solution (avoid other detergents). The cleaning solution is used in the mop-wash cycle; if you never add solution, mop cleaning will still occur but with plain water. Do not use hot water in these tanks (to prevent warping).
Dock Base: The bottom tray of the dock collects dirt and residue. It’s fully removable for rinsing. The large dock filter (above the dirty tank) can also be washed. Keeping the dock clean ensures suction stays strong when emptying the robot.
Sensors and Charging Contacts: Wipe the front obstacle sensor and bottom charging contacts occasionally (just a quick clean cloth wipe).

Overall, as long as you perform these basic upkeep tasks every few weeks, the Qrevo S5V stays in top condition. The fact that it washes its own mops and uses a disposable bag means you spend far less time physically cleaning the robot than with most other models. In exchange, the dock itself just needs simple user maintenance (refilling water, emptying bins).

What’s in the Box

The Qrevo S5V package includes everything needed for daily operation:

Roborock Qrevo S5V robot vacuum/mop unit (1)
Multifunctional Docking Station (1) (with integrated clean-water and waste-water tanks, auto-empty unit)
Replacement Mop Cloths (2) (the round cloths that attach to the spin pads)
Power Cable (1) for the dock
User Manual (1) and quick-start guides
(Plus likely an initial set of dust bags and a charging plug built into dock.)

With these out of the box components, you’ll only need to add water (and optional detergent) to get started. The box does not include spare filters or brushes, which can be purchased separately as replacements if needed.

User Experience and Tips

In everyday use, the Qrevo S5V is largely hands-free. After initial setup and teaching it your home layout (running a mapping job), it cleans around the clock on schedule without intervention. Its handling of pet hair and long hair means less matting on rollers, which users appreciate. People with multiple floors like that it easily remembers each level and only requires being placed on the desired floor.

Mapping-wise, the LiDAR is fast: it often scans a 2,000 sq ft home in under 15 minutes. It builds a map quite stably. Users have noted that sometimes boundary lines (like doorways) can “bleed” on the map, but this is fixable by adjusting zones. One user tip is that if you change wall layouts or rugs significantly, you can reload a saved map state to avoid full remapping.

Cleaning tasks such as emptying the bag or adding water are needed infrequently. The robot notifies you via the app when it’s time (for example, if the mop water is low or the dust bag is almost full). Although Roborock’s instructions advise using their branded cleaning solution, plain water works adequately for most; however, hard water might leave mineral spots on the mops over time. For odor control, some users have experimented with silver-ionic filters or bleach tablets in the dirty-water tank (as an aftermarket solution), but Roborock does not officially supply these.

Connectivity with smart home systems is smooth. Voice commands like “Alexa, start Roborock” generally work well. Also, there’s a small LED display or indicator on the robot showing battery or connectivity status, so you can check at a glance. The Qrevo S5V can also respond to push notifications from the app (e.g. “Cleaning complete” alerts).

In noisy or overnight mode, the machine’s gentle hum is not very noticeable. In fact, one advantage mentioned by users is that the Qrevo S5V’s quieter cleaning noise makes it suitable to run at night without waking family members. Its shape being round, it might bump into walls and furniture occasionally, but the soft bumpers absorb most impacts.

One drawback some users have observed is the learning curve for advanced app features. Setting up cleaning scenes or temporary skip zones (to avoid a spilled area for one run) can be less intuitive than in some competitor apps. However, with a few cleanings, most owners find their preferred routine established, and seldom need to intervene.

Conclusion

The Roborock QRevo S5V is a highly capable robot vacuum and mop that brings many premium features to a mid-range price point. Its mopping and suction performance are both impressive: the strong 12,000 Pa motor and triple anti-tangle brushes make vacuuming effortless, while the dual spinning mop system (with extendable FlexiArm) achieves deep cleaning on hard floors that most rivals can’t match. The smart dock completes the hands-off experience by self-emptying, refilling, washing, and drying – tasks you rarely have to think about.

On the navigation side, the LiDAR mapping and multi-floor support mean it’s easy to manage in multi-story homes. The structured-light obstacle avoidance does its job for typical clutter, though it isn’t as advanced as camera-based systems. The robot’s battery life is long enough to handle big jobs in one go, and the app gives a high degree of control and scheduling flexibility.

In short, the Qrevo S5V is ideal for pet owners and busy households who want powerful cleaning with minimal babysitting. It tackles hair, dirt, and stains automatically, leaving you only the occasional task of emptying bags or refilling water. If you need a robot that can vacuum corners with range, mop floors thoroughly, and largely maintain itself between full cleanings, the S5V is hard to beat. It’s a modern, automated solution that raises the bar for what a robot vacuum-and-mop combo can do.

Overall, the Roborock QRevo S5V offers a robust combination of strength, intelligence, and convenience. Its feature set and real-world performance justify its high ranking among robot cleaners. The few trade-offs (no hot-water washing, slightly weaker obstacle detection) are relatively minor given the level of automation and cleaning power provided. For a single device to handle almost all floor-care chores, the QRevo S5V is an excellent choice.
