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 | Eufy Clean G40 Hybrid+ | Roborock Q7 M5 |
|---|---|---|
| Home size | ||
| Under 1,500 sqft | GoodGyro-nav handles single-pass coverage in compact layouts; mop function adds efficiency. | GoodHomes & Gardens saw a 700 sq ft floor cleaned in about 65 minutes without running out of charge. |
| 1,500 – 3,000they differ | DependsGyro-nav reruns routes; covers 1,500–2,500 sqft but requires app zones for multi-area homes. | GoodVacuum Wars estimated about 1,370 sq ft per charge, and it recharges and resumes to finish. |
| Over 3,000they differ | PoorGyro-nav will spend 3+ hours on largest homes; battery drops to <60 min on turbo; not designed for full-house single pass. | DependsThe 400 ml bin has no auto-empty, so homes this large may fill it before the run ends. |
| Primary floors | ||
| Hard floors | GoodMop pads handle hard floors well; auto-detection lifts pads on rugs; dock-mounted water tank is suitable. | GoodVacuum Wars measured strong hard-floor pickup, though Homes & Gardens reported fine debris left on tiles. |
| Low / medium pile | GoodSuction adequate for low-pile and sisal blends; brush doesn't agitate aggressively, reducing false-debris alerts. | GoodTom's Guide and TechRadar found it pulled dust and dog hair from low-pile carpet. |
| High pile / shagthey differ | PoorOwner reports document suction loss on shag and high-pile carpets; 2,200 Pa insufficient for deep pile. | DependsNo high-pile carpet test was found, and long hair tangled the roller in every review. |
| Mopping needs | ||
| Vacuum only | GoodVacuums first; the mop pad is optional. | GoodVacuums first; the mop pad is optional. |

| You want to… | ||
| Empty bin myself | GoodMop pads require weekly hand-washing; brush needs monthly hair removal. Dock bag changes every 3-4 weeks. Moderate hands-on frequency. | GoodOwners willing to empty the bin, wash mop cloths and cut hair from the roller will manage it. |
| Empty occasionallythey differ | GoodSelf-empty dock eliminates the weekly dustbin task. Consumables (pads, filters, bags) span 30–90 days; owner effort is seasonal or event-driven. | DependsEvery run needs the bin emptied by hand, and mopping adds cloth washing and dampening. |
| Set-and-forget | PoorMop maintenance and dock bag refill schedule require active owner attention; not a true set-and-forget system. | PoorThe dock only charges, so bin emptying and mop care fall to you after every run. |
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: Charge time, 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.
Self-empty dock saves weekly effort but dock bags cost $24-30 per year and fill on a schedule you don’t fully control; the “hands-off” claim depends on accepting that refresh.
The mop covers hard floors in the same pass as vacuuming, but the module is clipped on and taken off by hand and there is no mop lift, so any run that includes carpet has to be run dry.
Strong suction pulls dust out of carpet, but the same roller wraps long hair in every review found.
A $150 robot with LiDAR maps; its mop is a flat pad dragged across the floor.
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.
