FAR Exceeded My Expectations!

Previously I had another robot vac mop hybrid that was underwhelming to say the least and I spent close to $1300 on that unit. When it began making more of a mess than cleaning, I threw it in the bin and began looking for an actual replacement. After reading lots of reviews and watching numerous YouTube videos, I came up with the Roborock Qrevo CurvX as my top choice. I had very specific criteria for the beyond demanding environment this robot would be tasked with cleaning. First and foremost, I needed the best vacuum for pets and, in particular, a long hair German Shepherd that sheds fluffy tufts of hair off her hind quarters like leaves falling from the trees in autumn. Her hair has been a particularly challenging thing for all my robot vacs. Given that we acquire what I call "hair tumbleweeds" if one single day is skipped, I knew I was already asking a lot out of a robot vacuum. However, given the coarse nature of part of her top coat and the downy like wool from some of her undercoat, I also needed a vacuum that wasn't going to continually suffer from tangled main brush errors. Every other robot we've owned has wound up either strangling itself and its main brush with this hair or been unable to empty the dust bin regularly enough to prevent hair clumps from being left behind throughout the house. The last robot would leave what looked like dreadlocks of dog hair all over. It was gross. So my top 2 criteria: best robot vac for pets (a GSD was used in the Google search) and best robot for anti-tangle brush rollers. I am not going to lie. My expectations for the Roborock were pretty low and I was skeptical of the whole hybrid vac/mop robot design. It took one use over one day to convince me otherwise! The robot arrived and the set up was easy to follow, much like the previous robot vac mop unit I had. I got everything charged and powered on and ready to go for the next day. I scheduled the unit to run at 8:00 am and clean the entire house using the vac and mop setting. I put everything at max because our house had been days without a robot running at that point so I really expected to get error messages while at work. When I walked through the front door, I could immediately tell a difference in the air quality. The air actually felt clean and the floors were spotless. Areas where our previous robot would miss, like hair that congregated in corners, were clean and without dirt, dust or hair. Since I added robot floor cleaning solution to the water tank, the floors in the house had a light, fresh scent. A quick walk through the house found every room had been cleaned thoroughly and I was stunned. Next, I decided to go inspect the robot to see how much hair was wound around the main brush. Again...I was stunned! The underside of the robot was clean as a whistle! There was no hair in the main brush at all. In fact, there was no hair around the large wheels on the side, the roller wheel at the front of the unit, or the sweeper brush. None! My last robot would always have hair tangled in all these spots and the dust bin would always be full even though the robot was supposed to empty the dustbin at the end of the cleaning session. This led me to the next huge surprise - the mop pads. They were bone dry, clean, and smelled fresh. I could not actually believe it and yes...I actually took the pad off the robot and smelled it to see if it smelled remotely musty or dirty. It was clean and dry. Given the first run was a success, I decided to wait and see how the robot did one week later. It has now been about two weeks since we had the CurvX and the robot has run every single day with the exact same results. It is quite simply, the best performing robot I have ever had (and I was an early adopter in the robot vacuum world). Mapping - It mapped my home with 95% accuracy in the first run. In the second run, the map was 100% correct. It was also super easy to label the rooms in the map. 10 out of 10. Obstacle Avoidance/Cords - Some online reviews on YT complained about the robot getting stuck on cables and cords. Like any robot, there is an expected amount of tidying up before it runs that should be expected. That being said, the obstacle avoidance has been phenomenal and I've had it encounter serval power cords for lamps, TV equipment, routers, etc. and it has never once even run them over. Instead it takes a picture and shows their location on the map after it's completed its job. 10 out of 10. Vacuuming - We have either hardwood or tile in our home, but there are several large rugs in various locations and the previous robot left lots of long German Shepherd hairs in those rugs. I could take my foot and rub it across the rug and pile up a clump of hair easily. That is not the case with this robot. It cleans the rugs impeccably! Of course the hardwood is as easy as it gets, but the recognition to raise the mops when it encounters rugs has worked flawlessly and the robot has not made our rugs wet at all. The floors feel clean after this robot runs and that's probably because they are clean! This robot also goes to empty its dust bin with a great deal or regularity! 10 out of 10. Mopping - Using the Smart AI feature has been a neat thing for this robot. It will detect where it encounters dirty areas whether that be in vacuuming or mopping, but it will elect to return to clean those areas again. In some spots, the robot has gone back two additional times to mop until it was satisfied it had cleaned the area well. Amazing! The floors get mopped well and the amount of water used, if not using the Smart AI, is easily adjustable through the app. One of the best features is that the mop pads are cleaned with HOT water and they are dried for 3 hours. The mops are also cleaned multiple times during any given session. I does not mop your home with nasty pads. 10 out of 10. Roborocks App and Ease of Use - the app is extremely easy to use but also full of so many customizable features. There is a bit of a learning Curv (pun intended) for anyone who might be new to the robot vacuum world. However, it is quite easy to intuit and navigate even for beginners. My last robot had no way to send the unit back to the dock to empty the bin if I wanted to. I can do that with the CurvX and more. 10 out of 10. Battery Life - This is the only spot where the robot struggles. It will take a VERY long time for the unit to clean my home. Sometimes the robot has to return to the base to charge twice before the job is complete. That being said, it's a trade off I'm willing to make for the level of cleanliness I get from the robot. I set it to run when I'm at work and it may start at 8 am and not finish until 2:30pm with charging times in between. I'd much rather have the robot take it's time and do a thorough job that exceeds my expectations as opposed to my previous robot that cleaned everything with one charge in about 2.5 hours only to leave me with more work to do when I got home. I wish it had a more robot battery and longer life because it does take it a considerable amount of time to charge. That being said, it's worth it, in my opinion. There may be other robots that clean just as well and can do so without having to charge so frequently. Just understand if you need something that will get the job done quickly and thoroughly, this is not your bot. 6 out of 10. Fit In Tight Spots - This robot has a unique feature - the Lidar unit on the top of the robot will lower to give it access to go under tight spaces. Even though my last robot had more than enough clearance, it would not go under our bathroom vanities or living room couch. That's not the case with the Roborocks. It even vacuums under our Wolf Range/Stove. If this unit will fit, it will go there. My son remarked that he's seen this robot go in places the other one did not and he's absolutely right. This little guy is downright intrepid! 10 out of 10. Sturdiness/Build Quality - everything about the Roborocks has been designed with ergonomics, function, and quality in mind. Everything feels sturdy and well-made. The design of the rollers is ingenious because the two part main brush definitely keeps hairs from tangling. Everything feels solid and well made with this unit. I have no qualms about the price I paid for this. It has been worth every penny. Overall Rating - 9.8 out of 10. The only points lost are due to battery life, but taking everything else into consideration, this robot has exceeded every expectation I had for it's performance. It has been a trooper every single day since I got it. With proper maintenance and care, I hope to keep this little guy running for several years. If you are considering a robot vacuum, which I assume you are if you read this review, this is the one to get. I have an environment that would stop and has stopped all other robot vacs in their tracks - not the CurvX. It acts like GSD constant shedding is no big deal and for a vacuum with this much power and the anti-tangle designed brushes - it isn't a big deal. It just keeps on working. I love this little vacuum!

Stop thinking about it and just do it!

I know it may be hard to believe, but this thing has changed my life! This was my first real robot vacuum, I had another, but it was the stupidest smart vacuum you could possibly imagine. It was 5 or 6 years old. The only reason I share that is because the tech isn't even on the same planet anymore. I spent hours and hours going back and forth between; Which brand? Which model? Which sub model? The whole industry is confusing and difficult to navigate if you have never purchased one of these. My hope is this review will make it easier. This is my advice; Buy the absolute, most expensive, model you can afford. If you have to, wait for it to go on sale. The tech in the upper end units is incredible. Here is why. I ended up with Roborock simply because between the major brands, Roborock has the best app. All other brands are fairly comparable if you are comparing like models, but the app really pushes it over the top for Roborock. If you are set on another brand, I say go for it! the upper models are all very very good and close in performance. Its just the app in Roborock that separates it from its competitors. Following is my rational for what I did and why. I have a brand new 4600 sqft ranch with full basement (mostly LVP with carpet in the bedrooms and tile in the bathrooms). That means 2300 sqft is a single level. That is a lot for one vacuum. Depending on settings, it will get through the whole upper level on a single charge, but no worries if it doesn't, it will go back to the base station and recharge, then pick up where it left off. I like a clean house, in fact, I am a little OCD about the floors being spotless, all the time. I want the whole house clean really. So, I looked and looked for a house cleaner. In the end, I was going to have to commit to something in the range of $400 - $500 twice a month for someone to come in and clean. That's two times a month for nearly a $1000.00! Couldn't do it. Once you look at that number, you quickly understand that paying $1200 - $1500 for a vacuum isn't that unreasonable. And the truth is, most of these go on aggressive sales and you can pick one up for half of that. Even after I did the math, I realized that flooring is a big time consumer when cleaning, especially if its nearly 2500 sqft. At that point, I was all in on the vacuum. I purchased the Curv X, and my only regret was not going all in and getting Roborock's upper model (I think the Saros). These things pay for themselves over and over again. The Curv X has been fantastic (we have been running this for more than a month now). It is pretty much completely automated. After a little bit of fiddling around with "no go" zones, working the furniture placement, and setting up "quick buttons", this can be left alone for weeks. I don't leave it alone, remember, I am OCD. I clean the water tanks once or twice a week. Mostly because I don't like dirty water sitting in the container, even though putting a little mouth wash in it supposedly takes care of the stink. I change it because the Curv X is mopping a couple times a week and I have a big footprint. But I also wipe down the base station and the vacuum itself to keep it looking nice. This thing just plods on and on and on. It flawlessly detects carpets, it does a fantastic job vacuuming, and if you are unhappy with any of its tasks, the app has endless ways to modify, redo, clean twice, or manage its patterns. I love the fact that after dinner, I can just get my phone, open the app, and with a single tap, have it come and vacuum/mop under the dinner table. Or, tap the app and have it go mop the bathroom, or clean the dog area up,or..or..or. You get the point. It has never gotten stuck (outside of the trial time period, but once no go zones are set and furniture is labeled, never), and works on time, without complaining, and never wants paid. The Curv X has a night/quiet mode and can easily vacuum in the middle of the night without waking anyone up. Its auto mop and brush extenders work flawlessly, and get basically everything. Objectively, this vacuum takes care of 95% of the work load, leaving a human to only vacuum the tops of baseboards, or in crevices than even I have a hard time reaching. It goes under low furniture, and around kitchen table/chairs, easily, and even stops when the dog stands there and looks at it. It has been amazing. Again, 95% of the work is squared away. Just be ready to monkey around with it for a week or so until you get the hang of the app and the problem areas in your house. But if you are a clean freak like me, and there is not much stuff laying around, this is a set and forget. If you do have things laying around, this will just go around them and keep working. Do you have any idea how nice it is to come home, or wake up, to find perfectly vertical lines in the carpet, like someone got out a ruler and measured the distance between every pass? This is like a drug for for those with OCD! I find myself making it vacuum every day just so I can see that! For those of you who just want to know how it works, here it is. Yes it lifts the mops over carpet (or you can select it to clean carpet before it even mops, it will literally go around the whole house, vacuuming each individual room that has carpet first, then go back and mop the other areas), yes it maps your whole house very quickly, yes the map is very accurate, yes it automatically detects most furniture, yes the map can be 3D or a matrix, yes it can avoid floor mats, yes it will clean most stains, yes you can use the camera feature to look around your house when you're gone, yes it has adequate suction and water flow, yes it cleans itself and drys the mop pads.. No I don't have any issues with tangled hair, and yes, the split roller works fantastic. Again, my only complaint is I didn't buy the more expensive one. In fact, I like it so much, I bought another Roborock for the carpeted basement. The Q7 M+. It was on sale and a smashing good price. But...... not even close to the Curv X, not by a long shot. It works fine in the basement and I can easily set it and forget it. But it doesn't do half of the stuff the Curv does. If I had to do it again, I would move the Curv X to the basement and buy the Saros for the upstairs. But considering the Q7 was on sale for $150, it was a no brainer. And mind you, it works fine for the basement (its all carpet and is super quiet) where the kids rooms are. In the end, this has been a game changer for me. The floors are basically clean all the time, it saves me 90 +% of the work in floor cleaning. I have very little bad things to say about it. Even if it died in a year, I would go buy another one before the week was out. Stop thinking about it and just buy it, it will change your life.

The robot vacuum I always wanted

This is the robot vacuum I wanted when I bought rombas years ago. The older rombas just moved around randomly and were loud and got stuck a lot and didn’t mop. This fixes all those issues. That said, there is a learning curve to using the app and you’ll need to spend some time with it to get it working exactly how you want. But after you do, it is a great little helper. My only complaint is the price, but I’m not knocking a star off for that because you all see that before you buy it. And even though the price is high, it’s a one time expense and the robot should last long enough to make that feel more reasonable. Actually the price was only a concern for me before I had it. After I've had this for a few weeks now and I have it clean the entire house every day, I no longer thing it's over priced. It does a really good job, and I love seeing vacuum lines on the carpet in the living room every day when I wake up, and I love that the kitchen tile and hardwoods are mopped and clean. Can I live without it? Sure I can, but I prefer having it, it makes a difference to always have a clean home. I have mine run two cycles per day, while I sleep I have it do the half of the house that people may see, and then I have it clean the bedrooms on the other side of the house after I'm awake and the battery is recharged. Luckily I don't have stairs so don't have to physically move it between floors or own a second one. The one thing I'm finding fault with it after owning it for a long time, is that about half my house is carpet and the other half some form of floor that needs mopped. And having this run every day, pretty much means needing to empty out dirty water and refill clean water manually every day. That's a very small task compared to cleaning myself, but I hope in the future when I build a new home they have an option to connect this to a water line and a drain and I can have a special robot area for it's home like a dog house for the robot and it can automatically empty and add fresh water on it's own with a large gallon dispenser for floor cleaning solution to automatically add that too. But this doesn't have that, so I just have to add water myself every day. I think in the future I'll back off the cleaning to only have it clean the parts of the house it needs water maybe just twice a week, and then maybe I will only have to refill it once a week. But in the meantime while it's new I'm enjoying having it clean every day. I'm hoping that eventually it'll be so clean that there won't be much dirt to pick up and then when I see the dirty water is pretty much clean water, I can back off to only cleaning a few times a week instead of every day.

Worth It

To sum it up, this is an amazing robot vacuum/mop combo and was worth every penny. I’ve waited 5 months to post this review and must say that it has blown my expectations out of the water. I originally purchased this thinking that it would be helpful for maintaining our floors throughout the week until they were cleaned again, but wound up with the opposite effect where I was able to not vacuum or mop the house myself in over 5 months and instead I was spot cleaning around the robot. I had one of the earlier generations of Roombas and so my expectations were fairly low thinking this would be a similar experience where the robot would do an okay job but mostly just push the dirt around into little piles and have been very pleasantly surprised by how far robot vacuums have come since those days. I debated for several months reading multiple reviews from Vacuum Wars on various robot vacuum/mops before finally deciding to purchase the Qrevo CruvX when it was on sale. It does a great job on our tiles and rugs. The tile is a high gloss and therefore very reflective and we have had minimal issues with streaking. It’s incredibly customizable through the app with tons of different settings to choose from like vacuuming the carpet first then mopping, and is easy to change depending on your needs and preferences. Maintenance has been easy so far, just make sure you’re regularly checking the filter, cleaning the sensors, and emptying the vacuum bag, etc. Water use is minimal and we generally go 2-3 cleans before needing to add fresh water and empty the old. As for some downsides it is fairly slow. It usually took me an hour to vacuum and mop the whole house, but it takes the vacuum closer to three. It obviously can’t go behind open doors or into narrow areas like beside the toilet so you’ll need to spot clean those areas yourself. It will occasionally get stuck although this is rare and it has an excellent mapping system. Leaves are its nemesis. If you have high traffic areas with lots of leaves you’ll need to do those yourself. The AI item recognition also tends to identify leaves as dog feces so I wound up turning off obstacle avoidance so it would stop avoiding them. The vacuum bag in the dock is one of the only things I would consider an actual design flaw as the bag folds over at an almost ninety degree angle into the dock below but I have been taking the bags out occasionally and shaking them to ensure the debris goes to the bottom. Overall the pros have far outweighed the cons and I am very happy with this purchase.
