Roborock

Roborock
Up to three
All robot vacuums. Every figure below is placed against the whole class, so a gap can be read against how much the class itself varies.
The conditions each robot was assessed against, side by side. Rows marked in gold are where these machines genuinely differ.
| Condition | Roborock Qrevo CurvX | Saros 20 Flow Complete |
|---|---|---|
| Home size | ||
| Under 1,500 sqft | Good120-minute runtime covers under-1500 sqft homes in one session on carpet. | GoodHandles compact homes easily; suction and LiDAR mapping comfortably cover a small floor plan, though the dock automation is more than most small spaces need. |
| 1,500 – 3,000 | GoodOptimal range; 120-minute runtime covers 1500-3000 sqft consistently per manufacturer specs. | Good36,000 Pa suction and retained multi-room LiDAR maps suit mid-to-large floor plans across several rooms. |
| Over 3,000they differ | DependsHomes over 3000 sqft require multiple sessions or zone selection; owner reports show success with mapped zones. | GoodMulti-level maps and a self-servicing dock handle large multi-floor homes with minimal owner intervention. |
| Primary floors | ||
| Hard floors | GoodDual-roller brush adapts suction for hard floors; LiDAR navigation on hard flooring verified in owner reports. | GoodRoller mop refreshed with clean water and 36,000 Pa suction target sealed hard floors, the surface it is built for. |
| Low / medium pile | GoodDual-roller brush performs optimally on low-pile carpet; manufacturer specs confirm differential motor control. | GoodCarpet detection lifts the mop 15 mm and raises suction, so low-pile rugs are cleaned without wetting. |
| High pile / shagthey differ | PoorHigh-pile carpet causes dual-roller tangling and suction loss; owner forums document 2-3 premature failures. | DependsMop lifts only 15 mm and the roller is built for hard and low-pile; suction retention on deep pile is not independently tested for this SKU. |
| Mopping needs | ||
| Vacuum only | GoodStrong vacuum; the mop lifts or detaches when not needed. | GoodStrong vacuum; the mop lifts or detaches when not needed. |

A robot being poor for a condition is a fact about fit, not a fault. “Depends” means the record names a limit worth reading, not that the answer is unknown.
Nine inputs across three pillars, each weighted as shown and each scored so more is better. A robot can lead on one and trail on another, which is the point of showing them apart.
A number only means something next to the spread it sits in. Each track is the real range across every classified robot in the class, with the median marked.
Not compared, because fewer than two of these robots carry a published figure: Runtime, Noise.
Written on each record, and the only thing here every robot on the site carries.
What each design gives up to be good at what it is good at.
At 3.14 in the CurvX is Roborock’s flattest robot and gets under low furniture, but the systems that make it hands-off live in a large heated dock rather than in the machine.
Hot-water mop washing at 167 F keeps the pad clean without the owner handling it, but it commits the dock to a mains outlet, open clearance and a hot wash tray between cycles.
Automated dock integration eliminates manual emptying but adds 20-30 minute mop-washing cycles between cleaning sessions, increasing downtime.
You are paying flagship money for Roborock’s most automated dock yet and a roller-mop design only weeks into public hands.
The roller washes itself continuously so pad swaps end, but a jammed roller or skipped detergent and water refill becomes the new weekly upkeep.
Stated by the record itself. A robot being wrong for a household is a fact about fit, not a fault.
The upkeep ownership hands back to you, whatever the autonomy level says.
Classifications rest on different depths of evidence. A pre-release assessment and a verified one are not the same kind of claim.

Evidence status counts the sources behind a classification, not their kind. A high count can be maker documentation and price coverage, so read it as how much was reviewed rather than as independent testing. How we weigh evidence.
