Flip the Roborock S5 above and you're going to find two black rubber wheels on both sides, a multi-directional wheel in front, and a three-spoke side brush to the left. Between the wheels are the combination rubber and bristle roller brush. Though like the brush around the Eufy Robovac 30c, the S5's roller brush remained free of hair and fuzz. Design The security company assessed the safety of four different robot vacuums, including the Roborock S55 and the Roomba 980. The Roborock S55 performed the worst; AV-Test said that this was"Due partly to gross security deficiencies in data transmission, the transfer of data to third parties, the program's unexplainable thirst for data, as well as a very clear need for progress in the announcement on the handling of customer data." As per a Roborock agent, although the Roborock S5 uses the exact same app produced by Xiaomi since the S55 (Xiaomi is an investor in Roborock), map data is saved locally on the robot and just goes into the Cloud when a user views the map on the smartphone program.Up to 20 maps are saved in the Cloud in any certain time, and so are automatically deleted after a year. When users delete a map in the program, it's also eliminated in the Cloud. Exactly what the Roborock S5 lacked cleaning thoroughness, it made up for with speed, cleaning our hardwood and carpeting test region at an average of 15 minutes and 22 seconds, nearly a full hour quicker than the Roomba 690 and 45 minutes quickly compared to Shark Ion R85. It wasn't quite as quickly as the Neato Botvac D7, that cleaned the test region in a mean of 10 minutes. 
Tumblr media
We're enthused about zone cleaning to the Roborock S5, as it is a great way to perform a cleaning of a hall or kitchen. From the primary display on the app, you are able to draw boxes across the map areas you need vacuumed. Unlike the Roomba i7+ and also the Neato Botvac D7, you can't save or name the zones, which usually means you have to redraw every time to the place that you wish to wash them. Adding to the confusion is a Edit Map button on the main screen which lets you draw on virtual barrier cassette and no-go zones. Among our favourite design components of the Robovac S5 is its own"hood" Flip up the thin piece and you'll come across the ample dustbin hidden in the center, together with a index light and system reset button.The S5 was the real robot vacuum we examined that had an area to hold the tool for cleaning the brush roll, a smart way to keep while enhancing the aesthetic. An indented section near the back is supposed to hold the microfiber mop module. In 63.8 decibels, the Roborock S5 was clearly louder than the Shark Ion R85 (59.2). We were able to have a conversation as the vacuum worked around us but raised our voices. In our lab tests, the Roborock S5 performed well, but not outstandingly so. On hardwood and carpeting, it picked up an average of 96.2 percent of those Cheerios strewn throughout the test region, which was marginally less than the iRobot Roomba 690 (99.5 percent), the Neato Botvac D7 (99.8) and the Shark Ion R85, which divides a perfect 100 percent with this test. 
Tumblr media
The Roborock S5 steps 13.8 inches in diameter, more than an inch bigger than the Shark Ion R85; it is also larger than the 13-inch iRobot Roomba 690 and the 13.2-inch Neato Botvac D7. Installation and app We were hesitant to provide the S5 free reign to wash if it decided to try and wash our carpet, so we used the spot-cleaning mode, which cleans a 1.5- meter (4.9 feet) area around wherever the S5 is placed. Turns our hesitations were unfounded. The Roborock S5 made about as much water as a wet Swiffer pad onto the ground. If it had cleaned as well as a Swiffer does.Security concerns Picking up dog hair on both the hardwood and carpet stymied many of the robot vacuums we tested, such as the Roborock S5;it picked up just 79.5% of pet hair--10 percent less than the Botvac D7 and 8.5 percent less than the Ion R85. However, the S5 did best the Roomba 690's 73.3 percent pet hair pickup rate. Mopping performance Much like the program that accompanies the Mi Home program, the Eufy Robovac 30C is designed to control house smart devices. The layout is not instinctive, while the vacuum part of this app is robust. Overall, the Roborock S5 accumulated an average of 86.8 percent of all test debris on carpet--a performance on a level with all the Neato Botvac D7, but well below the Shark Ion R85's 97.2 percent. The S5's hardwood performance told a similar story, picking up an average of 83.9 percent of all test debris. It was bested by the Botvac D7 by 12 percent. 
Tumblr media
The Roborock S5 distinguishes itself with a mopping quality that's unique one of the robot vacuums we analyzed, but unfortunately, its mopping art is genuinely helpful. A half-inch thin disk with a microfiber pad resides beneath the rear of the vacuum. Fill out the disc using water, click it adjust the Cleanup mode in the program and you are ready to clean. The screen shows the place cleaning time and also our favourite item of information--staying battery lifetime. Along the bottom are icons for Go, Dock, Clean and Zoned Cleanup. In the center of the robot is a increased laser cap on the Neato Botvac D7 using a dab of beneath, very similar to the one. Over the cover are bodily buttons for spot cleaning, on/off and recharging. Perhaps due to the white colour, the wall detectors on the front and side of the S5 are more noticeable than on other models, but they don't detract in the bot appearance.We were impressed with how the Roborock S5 approached walls and obstacles. The bumper on the Roomba 690 appeared to announce that it struck something with clunk; the S5 was more polite. The robot slows its strategy and its side brush before gingerly approaching an obstruction nonetheless, when the S5 chose an item was approachable, it approached with gusto. The S5 pushed chairs and dog bowls than the Shark Ion R85 and also the Neato Botvac D7. It wasn't destructive, but I wouldn't leave a fragile vase onto a lightweight plant stand around during a cleanup. When the Roborock S5 get its bearings, it cleaned regions in a exact, back-and-forth snake pattern.
Tumblr media
 The robot vacuum quickly found its way through the maze beneath our dining room table, easily weaving its way to the other. We appreciated how closely the S5 hewed to walls and chair legs;it tackled walls and edges tightly as the Neato Botvac D7. The van was also smart enough to completely avoid a thick pile rug that felled additional robot vacuums, but its taller height meant it didn't fit under one of our seats or our low-clearance couch. Despite its size, the Roborock S5 deftly maneuvered through tight spaces. At 3.8 inches high, the S5 sits straight between the 3.9-inch Botvac D7 and the 3.7-inch Roomba 690. While we do not love the laser cover in the center, the characteristic was significantly less obtrusive than the one about the D7, which has a massive overhang and penchant for getting stuck under living room seats. If you're adding a robot vacuum cleaner to your home, you want it to look great --especially if it's docked on your living room. The Roborock S5 eschews the black-and-grey color scheme adopted by other vacuums for white, with muted silver trim around the rim. If you guessed the Go icon could initiate a cleaning cycle, you would be wrong. Instead, Go directs the S5 into a stage on the cleansing map for the bot to perform a spot cleaning. A general vacuuming cycle is initiated by activating the icon. Buried in the Preferences menu are five distinct Cleanup modes : Quiet, Balanced, Turbo, MAX and Mop. The program, and by extension, the vacuum, retains the mode last used.
Tumblr media
Cleaning performance The Roborock S5 may also be controlled via Amazon Alexa and Google Home. But don't expect to access any features the only choices are On and Off, which prompts to bot to come back to its foundation. Google Assistant adds"Return to Dock," which sends the robot house, rather than Stop, which divides the vacuum in its tracks. "Beginning the cleanup," a cheery voice announces from deep within the Roborock S5. Rather than a series of Morse code-like beeps and chimes employed by the Neato Botvac D7, the Shark Ion R85 and many other appliances, the S5 admits what it's likely to do in easy-to-understand terminology prompts. The Roborock S5 is mostly controlled via the Mi Home program (Android and iOS). Connecting the robot into the program and also to our home wi-fi network took 2 tries, mostly because the directions for pairing the bot into the Wi-Fi network weren't too clear. Instructions that were abstruse quickly became a recurring motif of the S5. The manual recommends running a vacuum cycle that is regular . We did so, but it didn't seem to help. The S5 left the mopped area dull and a little sticky. If it had been possible to use something in addition to water in the mop tank it would have performed better. The black-and-white pier for your Roborock S5 is slightly taller than the vacuum itself. A clear plastic mat attaches to the dock, but it's only needed if you plan on using the attachment. Notice that tabbed Saving Mode is currently in beta and must be toggled on separately under Vacuum Settings in the app. We spent several test runs re-mapping our first floor due to this map not saving mechanically. Both the expensive iRobot Roomba and the Botvac D7 can store floor plans.

The S5 was the robot vacuum we reviewed that had an area to hold the tool for cleaning the brush roll, a smart means to maintain functionality whilst improving the aesthetic. An section close to the rear is meant to maintain the microfiber mop module. At 63.8 decibels, the Roborock S5 was noticeably louder than the Shark Ion R85 (59.2).

Security concerns Picking pet hair on both the hardwood and carpet stymied many of those robot vacuums we analyzed, including the Roborock S5;it picked up only 79.5% of pet hair--10 percent less compared to Botvac D7 and 8.5 percent less compared to Ion R85. On the other hand, the S5 did finest the Roomba 690's 73.3 percent pet hair pickup rate. Mopping performance Much like the app that accompanies the Mi Home program, the Eufy Robovac 30C was made to control home devices. The layout is not intuitive while the vacuum section of the app is strong. Overall, the Roborock S5 accumulated an average of 86.8% of all test debris on carpet--a performance on a level with all the Neato Botvac D7, but well below the Shark Ion R85's 97.2 percent.

The Roborock S5 distinguishes itself with a mapping quality that's unique one of the robot vacuums we analyzed, but unfortunately, its prowess is truly useful. A half-inch thin, half-moon-shaped disc with a microfiber pad attached with velcro clicks resides under the back of the vacuum. Fill out the disc using water, click it in, adjust the Cleanup mode in the program and you are ready to clean. The screen shows the most recent area in meters, cleaning time and also our favorite item of information. Along the bottom are icons for Go, Dock, Clean and Zoned Cleanup. In the robot's middle is a laser cover using a splash of underneath around the Neato Botvac D7. Above the cover are physical buttons for spot cleaning, on/off and recharging. Perhaps due to the white color, the wall detectors on the front and side of the S5 are more conspicuous than on other versions, but they don't detract from the bot appearance.

We were impressed with how lightly the Roborock S5 approached walls and obstacles. The bumper on the Roomba 690 seemed to announce it struck something with clunk; the S5 was much more considerate. The robot slows its strategy and its side brush before gingerly approaching an obstruction . The S5 pushed on chairs and dog bowls than the Shark Ion R85 and the Neato Botvac D7. It was not harmful, but I would not leave a vase on a plant stand around during a cleanup. When the Roborock S5 get its claws, it cleaned regions in a detailed back-and-forth snake pattern. The robot vacuum found its way beneath our dining room tableweaving its way to another. We appreciated how hewed to walls and about seat legs;it tackled walls and edges as the Neato Botvac D7. The van was also smart enough to fully avert a thick pile rug which felled additional robot vacuums, but its taller height meant it didn't fit under our chairs or our low-clearance couch. Despite its size, the Roborock S5 deftly maneuvered through tight spaces. At 3.8 inches , the S5 sits straight between the 3.9-inch Botvac D7 and the 3.7-inch Roomba 690. While we don't adore the laser cover at the center, the feature was less obtrusive than the one on the D7, which has a massive overhang and penchant for getting stuck under room seats. You want it to look great -- particularly if it's docked on your living room if you are adding a robot vacuum to your house. The Roborock S5 eschews the black-and-gray color scheme embraced by other vacuums for white, with silver trim around the rim. If you guessed that the Go icon could initiate a cleaning cycle, you would be wrong. Instead, God directs the S5 into a user-chosen point on the cleansing map for the bot to perform a spot cleaning.

Connecting the robot to the app and also to our home wi-fi network took two triesbecause the directions for pairing the bot into the Wi-Fi network were not too apparent. Abstruse instructions turned into a recurring theme of this S5. The manual recommends running a vacuum cycle that is normal over the region at least three times. We did so, but it did not seem to help. The S5 left the mapped area dull and a little tacky. If it was possible to use something along with water in the tank, then maybe it would have performed better. The black-and-white pier for the Roborock S5 is marginally taller than the vacuum. A large, clear plastic mat attaches to the dock, but it is only needed if you plan on utilizing the attachment. Notice that tabbed Saving Mode is currently in beta and must be toggled on individually under Vacuum Settings in the app. We spent several test runs re-mapping our first floor due to this map not saving mechanically. Both the iRobot Roomba and also the D7 can save multiple floor plans.

Awesome XiaoMi Roborock S50 S55 Dakota Singapore Discount
It may not possess the name-brand cachet of iRobot's Roomba or Samsung's Powerbot, but the Roborock S5 can hold its own. The Roborock S5 includes laser navigation, floor mapping, and both vacuuming and mopping functions, so you can tackle all of your floor cleaning from the comfort of your sofa. The Settings menu provides a wealth of features, you are sure to use. I would recommend activating Carpet Mode off the bat, as it permits the Roborock to automatically recognize carpets and boost suction. Also helpful is a"do not disturb mode" that lets you set a time once the vacuum shouldn't clean.
Tumblr media
The app Unfortunately, the mopping performance did not impress as much as the vacuuming. It didn't do a light sheen of water on my floor, and unevenly at that. It lifted the loosest dirt off the surface, and it is certainly no replacement for a thorough hand cleaning. More problematic was that the Roborock doesn't avoid carpeting when it's in mode--as Ecovacs Deebot OZMO 930 does--nor does it understand as it has moved back on carpet and quit mopping. Because of this, I ended up with several feet of carpet when I did not oversee a cleaning. The Roborock S5 impresses right out of the box with its bright finish, a welcome change from the samey colors of common to robot vacuums. On the very top is a button that activates automatic cleaning, yet another for spot cleaning, and a third for recharging, which basically works like the"house" button on additional robot vacuums, sending the Roborock back to its charging dock. 
Tumblr media
Another welcome layout detail is that the inclusion of a moisture-proof mat. You snap this onto the charging doc so that residual water out of your mopping won't drip in your floor whereas the Roborock is recharging. You then simply plug the dock in and place the vacuum. As soon as it's charging, download the Mi Home companion program, add the Roborock, and follow the prompts to link it to your own Wi-Fi network. During a cleaning, the S5's voice will probably chime in with status reports, letting you know when it's starting or stopping returning or cleaning to its dock. There is even a"Locate my robot vacuum" button in the app that when pressed prompts the Roborock to call out"Hi, I am here." The Roborock's app interface is designed and intuitive to use. The map the vacuum builds during its initial cleaning fills most of the screen. Underneath, the dimensions of the current cleaning area is displayed, in addition to the cleaning interval, and the remaining battery charge as a percentage. In the bottom, are buttons to trigger the cleaning manners. It is a determined little bot. 
Tumblr media
Where some robot vacuums will change direction whenever their front bumper encounters resistance, the Roborock tried to push through obstacles when it could. Sometimes, that helped as if it struck a set of my child's shoes and just pushed them together until they transferred out of the way. It might also be potentially disastrous, such as when it insisted on getting beneath a guitar stand until it fulfilled resistance to change direction only before tipping over an expensive axe. The Roborock had no problem navigating the transitions between the various flooring types, nor did it get hung up on any furniture. Its elevation prevented it from getting under my sofa and kitchen cabinets, but it left the spaces free of debris. Including wall borders, which are tough for some circular vacuums. The spin brush swept any dirt into the route of the brush so it could sweep it. And the cleaning took 21 minutes in line with the program.
Tumblr media
 Mopping Are a roller brush and a single twist brush for border cleaning, two wheels, and an omnidirectional wheel in the front. For cleaning, the vacuum includes a separate water tank and cloth that you attach to the bottom when you are prepared to clean flooring. For the first cleaning, I turned the Roborock loose on a place that included carpet, hardwood, and linoleum littered with everything to newspaper bits from pet hair. The vacuum systematically cleaned a small area of floor completely before moving onto another, creating a map because it moved. While this auto mode is excellent for general maintenance cleaning, the app gives you a few choices. One good one, particularly if you have little kids, is a place feature that allows you click a place and ship the vacuum into it. Then you are able to activate Spot Clean mode, also in the program, for a cleaning. The other is Zoned Clean Up, which lets you scale one or more places on the map with a box and dispatch the vacuum to do everything. 
Tumblr media
This is also where you can get your cleaning background, view the a variety of vacuum components have until they have to be cleaned or replaced, and even access manual vacuum controllers at the form of a digital remote controller or joystick. Setup and usage A turret on the cover of the vacuum houses the Roborock's laser distance sensor and brings its full height to about 3.8 inches. A 0.6-liter dustbin is located under a lid just behind it. A cleanup tool for the untangling hair from the main brush is latched next to ita thoughtful detail since these tools are misplaced. You need to attach the module that is mopping to mop swept floors. This consists of a water tank and a fabric. It's rather uncomplicated: First you dampen the cloth then attach it to the bottom of the tank. Then you fill the tank and slide it into its slot on the base of the vacuum. Finally, pick the mopping style in the program and begin the cleaning.

On the bottom are a roller brush and a single spin brush for border cleaning, two wheels, and an omnidirectional wheel at the front.

There is even a"Find my robot vacuum" button at the app that if pressed drives the Roborock to call out"Hi, I'm over here." Setup and usage The Roborock had no problem navigating the transitions between the different floor types, nor did it get hung up on any furniture. Its elevation prevented it from getting under my sofa and kitchen cabinets, but it left the wide-open spaces free of debris. Including wall edges, which can be tough for some curved vacuums. The twist brush deftly swept any dirt into the path of the principal brush so that it could sweep it. And the cleaning took just 21 minutes in line with the program. 
Tumblr media
The app The Roborock S5 impresses right out of the box with its white finish, a welcome change from the colors of common to robot vacuums. On the top is a button which triggers automatic cleaning, another for spot cleaning, and a third for recharging, which basically works as the"house" button on additional robot vacuums, sending the Roborock back to its charging dock. Unfortunately, the cleaning performance didn't impress as much as the shaving. It didn't do a sheen of water on my floor, and unevenly at that. It lifted only the loosest dirt off the outside, and it is certainly no substitute for a hand mopping. More problematic was that the Roborock does not prevent carpeting when it's in clean mode--as Ecovacs Deebot OZMO 930 does--nor does it understand as it's moved back on the carpet and quit mopping. Because of this, I ended up with several feet of moist rug when I didn't oversee a kitchen-floor cleaning. The Settings menu offers an abundance of additional features you are sure to utilize. I would recommend activating Carpet Mode right off the bat, as it permits the Roborock to recognize carpets and increase suction. Also helpful is that a"don't disturb mode" that lets you set a time once the vacuum should not clean. Another layout detail that is welcome is that the inclusion of a mat that is moisture-proof. You snap this onto the charging doc so that residual water out of your mopping won't drip in your own flooring whereas the Roborock is recharging. You simply plug the dock in and place the vacuum. Download the Mi Home companion program while it's charging, add the Roborock, and follow the prompts to connect it to your Wi-Fi network.
Tumblr media
To mop swept floors, you have to attach the module. This is made up of a flat water tank and a fabric. It's rather uncomplicated: the cloth dampen then attach it to the tank's bottom. Then you fill the tank and slide it into its own slot on the base of the vacuum. In the end, pick the mode in the app and start the cleaning. For your cleaning, I flipped the Roborock loose on a place that including carpet, hardwood, and linoleum littered with everything to newspaper bits from . The vacuum cleaned a small area of floor completely before moving onto a second, building a map as it moved. A turret on the cover of the vacuum homes the Roborock's laser distance sensor and brings its full height to approximately 3.8 inches. A 0.6-liter dustbin is located below a lid just behind it. A cleaning tool for the untangling hair from the brush is latched directly a thoughtful detail, since these tools are easily misplaced.

Top Notch XiaoMi Roborock S50 S55 in Starhill Gallery
At 63.8 decibels, the Roborock S5 was clearly louder than the Shark Ion R85 (59.2). We had the ability to have a conversation as the vacuum worked around us but definitely raised our voices. Much like the app that communicates the Mi Home app, the Eufy Robovac 30C is designed to control house smart devices. While the app's vacuum section is robust, the layout isn't instinctive. We were impressed with how gently the Roborock S5 approached walls and obstacles. The bumper on the Roomba 690 seemed to announce it struck something with elastic clunk; the S5 was more polite.
Tumblr media
The robot slows its own approach and its brush before gingerly approaching an obstruction ; however, once the S5 decided an item was still approachable, it approached with gusto. The S5 pushed on chairs and dog bowl across the floor more than the Shark Ion R85 and the Neato Botvac D7. It wasn't destructive, but I would not leave a fragile vase onto a lightweight plant stand around through a cleaning. The Roborock S5 may also be controlled via Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Don't expect to access some complex features the choices are On and Off, which prompts to bot to return to its base. Google Assistant adds"Return to Dock," which sends the robot home, as opposed to Cease, which divides the vacuum in its tracks. All in all, the Roborock S5 gathered an average of 86.8% of test debris on carpet--a performance on a par with the Neato Botvac D7, but well below the Shark Ion R85's 97.2 percent. The S5's hardwood performance told a similar story, picking up an average of 83.9 percent of test debris. The Botvac D7 bested it by 12 percent. If you guessed the Go icon would begin a cleaning cycle, you would be wrong. Rather, Go directs the S5 to a user-chosen stage on the cleaning map for the bot to perform a spot cleaning. Activating the Clean icon initiates an overall vacuuming cycle. Buried in the Preferences menu are five distinct Cleanup modes: Quiet, Balanced, Turbo, MAX and Mop. The app, and by extension, the vacuum, retain the mode last used. Flip the Roborock S5 above and you're going to discover two black rubber wheels on both sides, a multi-directional wheel at front, and a side brush to the left. Between the wheels are the mix rubber and bristle roller brush. Though similar to the brush on the Eufy Robovac 30c, the S5's roller brush stayed free of hair and fuzz. Installation and app The main screen shows the area in yards, cleaning time and our item of information.
Tumblr media
 Along the base are icons for Go, Dock, Clean and Zoned Cleanup. Exactly what the Roborock S5 lacked cleaning thoroughness, it made up for with speed, cleaning our hardwood and carpet test area at an average of 15 minutes and 22 seconds, nearly a complete hour faster than the Roomba 690 and 45 minutes quickly than the Shark Ion R85. It was not quite as quickly as the Neato Botvac D7, that cleaned the evaluation area at an average of 10 minutes, 22 minutes. The manual recommends running a vacuum cycle . We did so, but it did not seem to help. The S5 left the mapped area dull and somewhat tacky. When it had been possible to use something along with water in the mop tank it would have performed better. Layout  According to a Roborock representative, though the Roborock S5 uses the same app produced by Xiaomi as the S55 (Xiaomi is an investor in Roborock), map data is saved locally on the robot and just goes into the Cloud when a user views the map on the smartphone program. Up to 20 maps are stored in the Cloud in any time and are automatically deleted after a year. When users delete a map in the program, it's also removed from the Cloud. The security firm AV-Test recently evaluated the safety of four different app-connected robot vacuums, such as the Roborock S55 and the Roomba 980. The Roborock S55 performed the worst; AV-Test explained this was"Due partly to gross security deficiencies in data transmission, the transfer of information to third parties, the program's unexplainable thirst for information, as well as a very clear need for progress in the announcement on the handling of consumer data." Notice that tabbed Saving Mode is now in beta and have to be toggled on separately under Vacuum Settings from the program. We spent several test runs re-mapping our floor due to this map not saving automatically. Both the more expensive iRobot Roomba i7+ and the Botvac D7 are able to store multiple floor plans. Despite its size, the Roborock S5 deftly maneuvered through tight spaces. At 3.8 inches high, the S5 sits squarely between the 3.9-inch Botvac D7 and the 3.7-inch Roomba 690.
Tumblr media
 While we don't adore the laser cover in the center, the characteristic was less obtrusive than the one on the D7, which has a large overhang and penchant for getting stuck under room chairs. The Roborock S5 performed nicely, but not outstandingly so. On hardwood and carpeting, it picked up an average of 96.2 percent of those Cheerios strewn throughout the test region, which was slightly less than the iRobot Roomba 690 (99.5 percent), the Neato Botvac D7 (99.8) and the Shark Ion R85, which scooped a perfect 100 percent with this evaluation. At this robot's middle is a laser cap using a dab of orange beneath, very similar to the one on the Neato Botvac D7. Over the cover are bodily buttons for spot cleaning, on/off and recharging. Perhaps due to the white color, the wall detectors on the front and side of the S5 are more noticeable than on other models, but they do not detract in the bot appearance. The Roborock S5 is primarily controlled via the Mi Home app (Android and iOS). Connecting the robot into the app and also to our home wi-fi network took two tries, mostly because the directions for pairing the bot into the network weren't too clear. Abstruse instructions quickly turned into a motif of this S5. "Starting the cleanup," a cheery voice announces from deep inside the Roborock S5. Rather than a series of Morse code-like beeps and chimes employed by the Neato Botvac D7, the Shark Ion R85 and many other appliances, the S5 announces what it's going to do in easy-to-understand terminology prompts. Cleaning performance Security concerns You want it to look if it's docked on your living space, if you're adding a robot vacuum cleaner to your home. The Roborock S5 eschews the black-and-grey color scheme embraced by other vacuums for white, with muted silver trim around the rim. The Roborock S5 measures 13.8 inches in diameter, more than an inch bigger than the Shark Ion R85; it's also bigger than the 13-inch iRobot Roomba 690 and the 13.2-inch Neato Botvac D7. When the Roborock S5 gets its claws, it cleaned regions in a thorough, precise, back-and-forth snake layout. The robot vacuum immediately found its way under our dining room table through the maze weaving its way to the other out of one side of the space. We appreciated how tightly the S5 hewed to walls and chair legs;it tackled walls and borders as the Neato Botvac D7. The vac was also smart enough to fully avert a thick pile rug that felled additional robot vacuums, but its taller elevation supposed it did not fit under our seats or our low-clearance sofa. One of our favorite design elements of the Robovac S5 is its own"hood" Flip the plastic piece up and you will find the ample dustbin hidden in the center, together with a Wi-Fi index light and program reset button. The S5 was the only robot vacuum cleaner we reviewed that had an onboard space to maintain the differently easy-to-lose tool for cleaning the brush roll, a means to maintain functionality while enhancing the aesthetic. An section close to the back is supposed to hold the microfiber mop module. The black-and-white dock for the Roborock S5 is only marginally taller than the vacuum . A large, clear plastic mat attaches to the pier, but it is only needed if you're planning on using the mop attachment.
Tumblr media
 Mopping performance We were reluctant to give the S5 free reign to wash if it decided to try and clean our carpet, therefore we used the spot-cleaning mode, which cleans a 1.5- meter (4.9 ft ) area around where the S5 is put. Turns our hesitations were unfounded. The Roborock S5 produced about as much water on the ground as a wet Swiffer pad. If it had cleaned as well as a Swiffer does. Picking pet hair on both the hardwood and carpet stymied many of the robot vacuums we tested, including the Roborock S5;it picked up only 79.5% of pet hair--10 percent less than the Botvac D7 and 8.5 percent less than the Ion R85. However, the S5 did finest the Roomba 690's 73.3 percent pet hair pickup rate. We're enthused about zone cleaning on the Roborock S5, as it's a wonderful way to perform a cleaning of a front hall or kitchen where there is more foot traffic. You are able to draw boxes around the map areas you want vacuumed. Contrary to the Roomba i7+ and the Neato Botvac D7, you can't save or title the zones, which means you have to redraw every time to the place that you want to clean them. Adding to the confusion is a Edit Map button on the display that allows you draw on virtual barrier cassette and no-go zones. The Roborock S5 distinguishes itself with a mapping feature that's unique one of the robot vacuums we analyzed, but unfortunately, its own cleaning art is useful. A thin disk with a microfiber pad attached with velcro clicks resides under the back of the vacuum. Fill out the dish with water, click it adjust the Cleanup manner in the program and you are ready to clean.

Flip the Roborock S5 over and you're going to discover two rubber wheels on both sides, a multi-directional wheel at front, and a side brush to the leftside. Between the wheels are the combination rubber and bristle roller brush. Though similar to the brush on the Eufy Robovac 30c, the S5's roller brush stayed remarkably free of hair and fuzz. Design The security company evaluated the security of four distinct robot vacuums, such as the Roborock S55 and the Roomba 980. The Roborock S55 performed the worst; AV-Test said that this was"Due partly to gross security deficiencies in data transmission, the transport of data to third parties, the program's unexplainable thirst for data, in addition to a very clear need for improvement in the announcement on the handling of customer data." As per a Roborock representative, though the Roborock S5 employs the exact same program made by Xiaomi since the S55 (Xiaomi is an investor in Roborock), map information is stored locally on the robot and only enters the Cloud when a user views the map on the smartphone program.
Tumblr media
Up to 20 maps are saved in the Cloud at any time and are deleted after a year. When users delete a map it's also removed in the Cloud. Exactly what the Roborock S5 lacked in cleaning thoroughness, it made up for with speed, cleaning our hardwood and carpeting test region at an average of 15 minutes and 22 seconds, almost a full hour faster than the Roomba 690 and 45 minutes quickly compared to Shark Ion R85. It was as quickly as the Neato Botvac D7, that cleaned the test area at an average of 10 minutes, 22 seconds. We were enthused about zone cleaning to the Roborock S5, since it is a great way to perform a daily cleaning of a hall or kitchen where there is more foot traffic. You are able to draw boxes around the map regions you need vacuumed. Contrary to the Roomba i7+ and also the Neato Botvac D7, you can't save or title the zones, which usually means you have to redraw the place every time you want to clean them. Adding to the confusion is an Edit Map button on the display which allows you draw virtual barrier cassette and no-go zones. One of our favorite design components of this Robovac S5 is its own"hood." Flip up the plastic piece that is and you will find the dustbin hidden in the middle, along with a index light and system reset button.
Tumblr media
The S5 was the only real robot vacuum we reviewed that had an onboard space to hold the tool for cleaning the brush roll, a means to maintain functionality while enhancing the aesthetic. An indented section near the back is meant to maintain the microfiber mop module. In 63.8 decibels, the Roborock S5 was noticeably louder than the Shark Ion R85 (59.2). We had the ability to have a conversation because the vacuum worked around us, but raised our voices. In our laboratory tests, the Roborock S5 performed nicely, but not outstandingly so. On hardwood and carpeting, it picked up an average of 96.2% of those Cheerios strewn throughout the test region, which was marginally less than the iRobot Roomba 690 (99.5 percent), the Neato Botvac D7 (99.8) and the Shark Ion R85, that divides up a perfect 100 percent with this test. The Roborock S5 steps 13.8 inches in diameter, more than an inch bigger than the Shark Ion R85; it is also larger than the 13-inch iRobot Roomba 690 and the 13.2-inch Neato Botvac D7. Setup and app We were hesitant to give the S5 free reign to mop in case it decided to try and clean our rug, therefore we utilized the spot-cleaning mode, which sheds a 1.5- meter (4.9 feet) area around where the S5 is placed. Turns our hesitations were unfounded. The Roborock S5 made about as much water on the ground. If it had cleaned as well as a Swiffer does.
Tumblr media
Security concerns Picking pet hair on both hardwood and carpet stymied many of the robot vacuums we tested, including the Roborock S5;it picked up only 79.5% of pet hair--10 percent less compared to Botvac D7 and 8.5 percent less compared to Ion R85. However, the S5 did best the Roomba 690's 73.3 percent pet hair pickup rate. Mopping performance Much like the program that communicates the Mi Home app, the Eufy Robovac 30C is designed to control multiple home devices. The design isn't instinctive while the vacuum part of this app is strong. All in all, the Roborock S5 gathered an average of 86.8 percent of all test debris on carpeting --a performance on a par with all the Neato Botvac D7, but well below the Shark Ion R85's 97.2 percent. The S5's hardwood performance told a similar tale, picking up an average of 83.9% of all test debris. It was bested by the Botvac D7 by 12 percent. The Roborock S5 distinguishes itself with a mopping quality that's unique among the robot vacuums we tested, but unfortunately, its own cleaning prowess is much more of a novelty than useful. A slender disc using a microfiber pad attached with velcro clicks resides beneath the back of the vacuum. Fill out the disc with water, click it adjust the Cleanup mode in the app and you are ready to wash. The main screen displays the area cleaning time and our item of information--staying battery life. Along the bottom are icons for Go, Dock, Clean and Zoned Cleanup. In the robot's center is a increased laser cap on the Neato Botvac D7 with a dab of beneath, very similar to this one. Above the cover are buttons for cleaning, on/off and recharging. Maybe due to its white colour, the wall detectors on front and side of the S5 are more conspicuous than on other versions, but they don't detract in the bot appearance.
Tumblr media
We were impressed with how the Roborock S5 approached walls and obstacles. The bumper on the Roomba 690 appeared to announce it struck something with elastic clunk; the S5 was considerably more considerate. The robot slows its own strategy and its own side brush before gingerly approaching an obstacle. The S5 pushed chairs and puppy bowl around the floor over the Shark Ion R85 and the Neato Botvac D7. It wasn't destructive, but I wouldn't leave a delicate vase onto a plant stand around during a cleanup. Once the Roborock S5 gets its bearings, it cleaned regions in a detailed back-and-forth snake pattern. The robot vacuum found its way beneath our dining room table through the maze weaving its way to another. We appreciated how hewed to walls and chair legs;it tackled walls and borders as closely as the Neato Botvac D7. The van was also smart enough to fully avoid a thick pile rug that felled additional robot vacuums, but its taller elevation supposed it did not fit under our chairs or our low-clearance couch. Despite its size, the Roborock S5 deftly maneuvered through tight spaces. At 3.8 inches , the S5 sits squarely between the 3.9-inch Botvac D7 and the 3.7-inch Roomba 690. While we don't adore the laser cover at the center, the feature was significantly less obtrusive than the one about the D7, that has a large overhang and penchant for getting stuck under living room seats. If you are adding your home and a robot vacuum, you want it to look good -- especially if it's docked on your living room. The Roborock S5 eschews the black-and-grey color scheme adopted by other vacuums for white, with muted silver trim around the rim. If you guessed that the Go icon could begin a cleaning cycle, then you'd be wrong. Instead, Go directs the S5 to a point on the cleansing map for the bot to perform a place cleaning. Activating the icon starts an overall vacuuming cycle. Buried in the Settings menu are five different Cleanup modes: Quiet, Balanced, Turbo, MAX and Mop. The program, and by extension, the vacuum, retains the mode last used.
Tumblr media
Cleaning performance The Roborock S5 may also be controlled via Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Don't expect to access any complex features using Alexa; the options are On and Away, which prompts to bot to return to its base. Google Assistant adds"Return to Dock," which sends the robot home, rather than Cease, which pauses the vacuum in its paths. "Starting the cleanup," a cheery voice announces from deep inside the Roborock S5. Rather than a series of Morse code-like beeps and chimes utilized by the Neato Botvac D7, the Shark Ion R85 and lots of other modern appliances, the S5 admits what it's likely to perform in easy-to-understand terminology prompts. The Roborock S5 is mostly controlled through the Mi Home program (Android and iOS). Linking the robot into the app and to our home wi-fi network took 2 triesbecause the directions for pairing the bot into the Wi-Fi network weren't too clear. Instructions that were abstruse quickly turned into a recurring theme of the S5. The guide recommends running a regular vacuum cycle . We did this, but it did not seem to help. The S5 left the mapped area dull and a little tacky. If it had been possible to use something along with water from the mop tank, maybe it could have performed better. The black-and-white pier for the Roborock S5 is marginally taller than the vacuum. A large plastic mat attaches to the dock, but it is only needed if you plan on using the attachment. Note that Map Saving Mode is currently in beta and must be toggled on separately under Vacuum Settings in the program. We spent several test runs re-mapping our first floor due to the map not saving mechanically. Both the iRobot Roomba and also the Botvac D7 can store floor plans.

Revolutionary XiaoMi Roborock S50 S55 Fahrenheit 88
At 63.8 decibels, the Roborock S5 was noticeably louder than the Shark Ion R85 (59.2). We had the ability to have a conversation with another person in the room although the vacuum worked around us, but raised our voices. Much like the app that communicates the Eufy Robovac 30C, the Mi Home app is designed to control house devices. While the app's vacuum section is robust, the layout isn't intuitive. We were impressed with how lightly the Roborock S5 approached walls and barriers. The bumper on the Roomba 690 appeared to announce that it struck something with clunk; the S5 was more considerate.

The robot slows its approach and its own brush before gingerly approaching an obstaclewhen the S5 chose an object was approachable, it approached gusto. The S5 pushed chairs and puppy bowls across the floor more than the Shark Ion R85 and the Neato Botvac D7. It wasn't destructive, but I would not leave a delicate vase on a plant stand around through a cleaning. The Roborock S5 may also be controlled via Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Don't expect to get any complex features the only choices are On and Away, which prompts to bot to return to its foundation. Google Assistant adds"Return to Dock," which sends the robot house, rather than Stop, which pauses the vacuum in its paths. Overall, the Roborock S5 accumulated an average of 86.8 percent of all test debris on carpeting --a performance on a level with the Neato Botvac D7, but well below the Shark Ion R85's 97.2 percent. The S5's hardwood performance told a similar tale, picking up an average of 83.9% of all test debris. It was bested by the Botvac D7 by 12 percent. If you guessed the Go icon could begin a fundamental cleaning cycle, you would be wrong. Instead, God directs the S5 to a user-chosen stage on the cleaning map for the bot to perform a spot cleaning. A vacuuming cycle is initiated by activating the icon that is Clean. Buried in the Settings menu are five distinct Cleanup modes: Quiet, Balanced, Turbo, MAX and Mop. The program, and by extension, the vacuum, retain the mode last used. Flip the Roborock S5 over and you'll find two black rubber wheels on both sides, a multi-directional wheel in front, and a side brush to the left. Between the black wheels are the combination rubber and bristle roller brush.

It wasn't quite as fast as the Neato Botvac D7, that cleaned the evaluation area in a mean of 10 minutes, 22 seconds. The guide recommends running a vacuum cycle that is regular over the area at least three times. We did so, but it didn't appear to help. The S5 left the mopped area dull and somewhat tacky. If it had been possible to use something in addition to water from the mop tank it would have performed better.

Installation and program  We were hesitant to provide the S5 free reign to wash if it decided to try and wash our carpet, therefore we utilized the spot-cleaning manner, which sheds a 1.5- meter (4.9 ft ) area around where the S5 is put. Turns out our hesitations were unfounded. The Roborock S5 made about as much water on the floor as a wet Swiffer pad. If only it had cleaned as well as a Swiffer does.

Security concerns Picking up dog hair on both hardwood and carpet stymied many of those robot vacuums we tested, such as the Roborock S5;it picked up just 79.5 percent of pet hair--10 percent less than the Botvac D7 and 8.5 percent less than the Ion R85. On the other hand, the S5 did finest the Roomba 690's 73.3 percent pet hair pickup speed. Mopping performance Much like the app that accompanies the Eufy Robovac 30C, the Mi Home app is designed to control multiple home smart devices. The layout is not intuitive, while the vacuum section of the app is robust. Overall, the Roborock S5 gathered an average of 86.8 percent of all test debris on carpet--a performance on a par with the Neato Botvac D7, but well below the Shark Ion R85's 97.2 percent. The S5's hardwood performance told a similar story, picking up an average of 83.9 percent of test debris. The Botvac D7 bested it by 12 percent. The Roborock S5 distinguishes itself with a mopping feature that's unique one of the robot vacuums we analyzed, but unfortunately, its prowess is much more of a novelty than useful. A thin, half-moon-shaped disc with a microfiber pad attached with velcro clicks resides beneath the rear of the vacuum. Fill the dish with water, click it adjust the Cleanup manner in the program and you are ready to clean. The main screen displays the most recent map-cleaning area in meters, cleaning time and our favorite item of information--staying battery life. Along the base are icons for Go, Dock, Clean and Zoned Cleanup. In the center of this robot is a laser cap around the Neato Botvac D7 with a dab of beneath. Over the cover are bodily buttons for spot cleaning, on/off and recharging. Maybe due to the white color, the wall detectors on the front and side of the S5 are more conspicuous than on other models, but they don't detract in the bot look.
Tumblr media
We were amazed with how the Roborock S5 approached walls and barriers. The bumper on the Roomba 690 seemed to announce it hit something with elastic clunk; the S5 was much more polite. The robot slows its own approach and its side brush before gingerly approaching an obstacleonce the S5 decided an item was approachable, it approached gusto. The S5 pushed seats and puppy bowl than the Shark Ion R85 and the Neato Botvac D7. It wasn't destructive, but I would not leave a vase on a plant stand around through a cleaning. When the Roborock S5 get its claws, it cleaned areas in a detailed back-and-forth snake pattern. The robot vacuum found its way through the maze beneath our dining room table, easily weaving its way to another. We appreciated how closely the S5 hewed to walls and chair legs;it tackled walls and borders closely as the Neato Botvac D7. The van was also smart enough to fully avoid a thick pile rug which felled additional robot vacuums, but its taller height meant it didn't fit under one of our seats or our low-clearance couch. Despite its larger size, the Roborock S5 deftly maneuvered through tight spaces. At 3.8 inches high, the S5 sits squarely between the 3.9-inch Botvac D7 and the 3.7-inch Roomba 690. While we do not adore the laser cover at the center, the characteristic was significantly less obtrusive than the one about the D7, that has a massive overhang and penchant for getting stuck under living room seats. You want it to look if it's docked on your living space if you're adding a robot vacuum cleaner to your home. The Roborock S5 eschews the black-and-gray color scheme embraced by other vacuums for white, with silver trim around the rim. If you guessed that the Go icon would begin a cleaning cycle, then you would be wrong. Instead, God directs the S5 into a user-chosen stage on the cleaning map for the bot to perform a place cleaning. By activating the icon, a general vacuuming cycle is initiated. Buried in the Settings menu are five distinct Cleanup modes : Quiet, Balanced, Turbo, MAX and Mop. The app, and by extension, the vacuum, retains the mode last used.
Tumblr media
Cleaning performance The Roborock S5 may also be controlled via Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Don't expect to get some advanced features the only choices are On and Off, which prompts to bot to come back to its base. Google Assistant adds"Return to Dock," which sends the robot house, rather than Cease, which pauses the vacuum in its tracks. "Starting the cleanup," a cheery voice announces from deep inside the Roborock S5. Rather than a string of Morse code-like beeps and chimes employed by the Neato Botvac D7, the Shark Ion R85 and lots of modern appliances, the S5 announces what it is likely to perform in easy-to-understand terminology prompts. The Roborock S5 is mostly controlled through the Mi Home program (Android and iOS). Linking the robot to the app and also to our home wi-fi network took two triesbecause the directions for pairing the bot to the network were not very clear. Abstruse instructions turned into a theme of the S5. The guide recommends running a vacuum cycle that is normal within the region at least three times. We did this, but it didn't seem to help. The S5 left the mopped area dull and a little sticky. If it had been possible to use something along with water from the mop tank it could have performed better. The black-and-white pier for your Roborock S5 is only slightly taller than the vacuum. A large plastic mat attaches to the pier, but it is only needed if you're planning on utilizing the attachment. Notice that tabbed Saving Mode is currently in beta and must be toggled on separately under Vacuum Settings from the app. We spent several test runs re-mapping our first floor due to this map not saving mechanically. Both the iRobot Roomba and the D7 can save multiple floor plans.

Flip the Roborock S5 over and you'll find two rubber wheels on either side, a wheel in front, and a side brush to the leftside. Between the black wheels are the combination rubber and bristle roller brush. Though like the brush around the Eufy Robovac 30c, the S5's roller brush stayed free of hair and fuzz. Design The security firm evaluated the safety of four distinct robot vacuums, such as the Roborock S55 and the Roomba 980. The Roborock S55 performed the worst; AV-Test said that this was"Due partly to gross safety deficiencies in data transmission, the transport of information to third parties, the program's unexplainable thirst for data, in addition to a very clear need for improvement in the statement on the handling of consumer data." As per a Roborock representative, though the Roborock S5 employs the exact same program made by Xiaomi as the S55 (Xiaomi is an investor in Roborock), map information is stored locally on the robot and just goes into the Cloud when a user views the map on the smartphone app.
Tumblr media
As much as 20 maps are saved in the Cloud in any certain time, and are deleted after a year. When users delete a map from the program, it's also eliminated from the Cloud. What the Roborock S5 lacked cleaning thoroughness, it made up for with speed, cleaning our hardwood and carpet test area in an average of 15 minutes and 22 seconds, almost a full hour faster than the Roomba 690 and 45 minutes fast compared to Shark Ion R85. It wasn't quite as fast as the Neato Botvac D7, which cleaned the evaluation area in a mean of 10 minutes, 22 minutes. We were excited about zone cleaning on the Roborock S5, as it's a wonderful way to perform a cleaning of a front hall or kitchen. From the main screen on the app, you can draw boxes. Unlike the iRobot Roomba i7+ and also the Neato Botvac D7, you cannot save or title the zones, which means you need to redraw each time to the place that you want to clean them. Adding to the confusion is an Edit Map button on the screen which allows you draw on barrier tape and no-go zones. Among our favourite design components of the Robovac S5 is its"hood" Flip up the thin plastic piece and you will come across the ample dustbin concealed in the center, along with a indicator light and system reset button.

The S5 was the robot vacuum we reviewed that had an space to maintain the otherwise easy-to-lose tool for cleaning the brush roll, a smart means to maintain functionality whilst improving the overall aesthetic. An indented section near the rear is supposed to hold the microfiber mop module. At 63.8 decibels, the Roborock S5 was clearly louder than the Shark Ion R85 (59.2). We had the ability to have a conversation with another individual in the room as the vacuum worked around us, but raised our voices. In our laboratory tests, the Roborock S5 performed nicely, but not outstandingly so.

It is only needed if you're planning on utilizing the mop attachment, although A clear plastic mat attaches to the pier. The main screen shows the place in meters, cleaning time and our piece of information--remaining battery life. Along the bottom are icons for Go, Dock, Clean and Zoned Cleanup. Despite its size, the Roborock S5 deftly maneuvered through tight spaces. At 3.8 inches high, the S5 sits straight between the 3.9-inch Botvac D7 and the 3.7-inch Roomba 690. While we do not adore the laser cover at the middle, the characteristic was significantly less obtrusive than the one about the D7, that has a massive overhang and penchant for becoming stuck under living room chairs. We were reluctant to provide the S5 free reign to wash if it decided to test and clean our rug, therefore we utilized the spot-cleaning manner, which cleans a 1.5- meter (4.9 feet) area around where the S5 is placed. Turns out our hesitations were unfounded. The Roborock S5 produced about as much water on the ground as a wet Swiffer pad. If only it had cleaned as a Swiffer does. We're enthused about zone cleaning to the Roborock S5, as it's a great way to perform a cleaning of a hall or kitchen. You are able to draw boxes around the map regions you need vacuumed. Unlike the Roomba i7+ and also the Neato Botvac D7, you can't save or title the zones, which usually means you have to redraw every time to the place that you wish to wash them. Adding to the confusion is an Edit Map button on the primary screen that lets you draw virtual barrier tape and no-go zones. Setup and program  Layout  You want it to look if it's docked in your living space, if you are adding a robot vacuum to your home.

The Roborock S5 eschews the black-and-gray colour scheme embraced by other vacuums for white, with silver trim around the rim. The Roborock S5 may also be controlled via Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Don't expect to get any features the choices are On and Away, which prompts to bot to come back to its base. Google Assistant adds"Return to Dock," which sends the robot home, rather than Stop, which divides the vacuum in its paths. Flip the Roborock S5 above and you'll discover two rubber wheels on either side, a wheel in front, and a three-spoke side brush to the leftside. Between the wheels are the combination rubber and bristle roller brush. Though similar to the brush around the Eufy Robovac 30c, the S5's roller brush remained free of hair and fuzz. We were amazed with how lightly the Roborock S5 approached walls and obstacles. The bumper on the Roomba 690 appeared to announce that it hit something with springy clunk; the S5 was considerably more considerate. The robot slows its approach and its brush before gingerly approaching an obstruction nonetheless, when the S5 decided an object was approachable, it approached gusto. The S5 pushed on chairs and dog bowl across the floor more than the Shark Ion R85 and also the Neato Botvac D7. It was not harmful, but I would not leave a fragile vase on a lightweight plant stand around through a cleanup.
