01 Classification
What each one does on its own.
The Autonomy Ladder is the same five rungs for every robot on the site. A rung describes the conditions a robot handles without you, not how good it is.
V
Generalized
Any task, any setting
IV
Environmental
Handles new obstacles without help
III
Conditional
Finishes familiar jobs on its own

Assisted
Runs preset routines, needs rescue
I
Manual
One action, on command
02 Assessment
Where they actually differ.
The Robovations Score is nine inputs across three pillars, each weighted as shown and each scored so that more is better. A robot can lead on one and trail on another, which is the point of showing them apart. Cost of ownership and data handling are reported on each robot's own page and are never averaged into the score.

How far apart is a long way?
A number only means something next to the spread it sits in. Each track below is the real range across every classified robot in the class, with the median marked.

04 Ownership
What the numbers leave out.
The trade-off
What each design gives up to be good at what it is good at.
Ecovacs Deebot T30S Pro
Dock self-washes mops but requires active water-tank management; heated cycles consume power and introduce mineral-scale risk absent in air-drying models.
Spinning mops add a dock-dependent subsystem: pads lift 9 mm on carpet detection and wash at the station between runs, so mopping is only as available as the station’s tanks are kept filled and drained.
Roborock Qrevo MaxV
The FlexiArm extends the mop to the wall edge; it moves nothing. Homes with floor-level obstacle scatter still require a pre-run tidying pass or accepted avoidance routing.
7,000 Pa suction: competitive at launch in early 2024, now below the 10,000-plus Pa ratings of 2025-generation flagships. Cleaning ability in open hard-floor spaces holds up; the gap shows on carpeted zones with heavier debris.
Who each one is wrong for
Stated by the record itself. A robot being wrong for a household is a fact about fit, not a fault.
Ecovacs Deebot T30S Pro
- Owners avoiding dock maintenance
- Self-washing dock requires regular rinse-cycle operation and tank refill. Mineral deposits in heated-water circuits need seasonal attention.
- Compact apartments under 1,500 sqft needing lowest cost
- MSRP $1,099 positions above entry-tier vacuums. Spinning-mop feature commands premium; simpler models deliver same base cleaning cheaper.
Roborock Qrevo MaxV
- Homes dominated by high-pile or shag carpet
- The 10 mm mop lift clears standard and low-pile carpet; owner reports (2024-2026) describe coverage inconsistency on high-pile and shag. Suction performance is rated at 7,000 Pa, which is moderate by 2024 flagship standards.
- Privacy-sensitive owners uncomfortable with onboard camera
- The RGB camera operates during cleaning sessions to classify obstacles. Roborock documents on-device processing, but the hardware is present and active. Owners who prefer camera-free units have other Level III options without onboard imaging.
- Compact apartments under 800 sqft with minimal clutter
- The full dock suite occupies meaningful floor space. LiDAR mapping and FlexiArm edge coverage deliver diminishing return in small, open-plan spaces where a lighter setup achieves similar results at lower cost.
- Buyers who do not need the full dock suite
- Roborock lists the Qrevo MaxV at $1,399.99 and has sold it well below that. At list price, the Dock 2.0 and FlexiArm mopping are what the money buys. Buyers who do not need hot-water mop washing or edge mopping will find comparable LiDAR navigation in less expensive configurations.
What stays your job
The upkeep ownership hands back to you, whatever the autonomy level says.
Ecovacs Deebot T30S Pro
- Daily: Empty dust bin if half-full.
- Weekly: Inspect mop pads for debris; rinse dock water tank.
- Monthly: Run dock heating descale cycle; filter replacement if clogged.
- Every 3-6 months: Replace spinning-mop pads (cost pending; estimate $15-30 per set).
- Seasonally: Deep-clean dock heating chamber and valve assemblies.
Roborock Qrevo MaxV
- After every use: Confirm dock auto-empty cycle completed; check app for obstacle alerts or skipped zones.
- Weekly: Inspect side brush for hair tangles; clear brush guard if debris has accumulated.
- Monthly: Rinse dock wash tray and inlet to prevent mop-pad odor buildup.
- Every 3-6 months: Replace HEPA filter (roughly $15-25 per filter); inspect mop pads and swap if worn.
- Every 3-6 months: Clean LiDAR sensor window and camera lens with a dry cloth; check FlexiArm mop attachment for wear.
- Annually: Inspect dock water reservoir seal and drainage path; verify dock electrical connections are dry.
- As needed: Refill dock water reservoir when app alerts low level; update firmware via Roborock app when available.
05 Evidence
How much each of these is standing on.
Classifications rest on different depths of evidence. A pre-release assessment and a verified one are not the same kind of claim.
