Score: 79/100Rankings
The Roborock Q10 S5 is a mid-range robot vacuum-mop combo delivering 10,000 Pa suction and a vibrating auto-lifting mop, making it excellent for pet hair on mixed floors. It lacks an auto-empty dock and its mop may struggle with very tough stains. Ideal for households up to ~2,000 sq ft seeking strong suction without premium price.
The iRobot Roomba i3+ EVO is a high-performance robot vacuum with strong suction and a 60-day self-emptying base, making it ideal for pet owners seeking hands-free cleaning. Its drawbacks include a noisy emptying cycle and the lack of a HEPA filter, which may deter allergy-sensitive users. Best suited for busy households that value convenience over ultra-quiet operation.
