Could someone explain Roborock models? The names are confusing.

I can give you a basic rundown, here's a rant I posted only this morning https://www.reddit.com/r/RobotVacuums/comments/1qzl563/comment/o4d12j9/?context=3 The S series are the best bots. The true flagships but they don't muck around with new tech like rollers yet, for a good reason, they are basical

God-awful app or am I missing something?

It's not the app, it's the robot. The Q5, Q7 and Q10 bot's are believed to be made in a different factory than the main roborocks, so these are basically Irobots with roborock software shoved over the top. It's no wonder the app doesn't play nice with them. No clue what roborock was thinking when th

Roborock's $20 'Goodwill Discount' Lost Them a Multi-Device Customer - Switched to Mova and Couldn't Be Happier

I am also a multi-roborock owner (3 s7 Max V Ultras, one S8 Max V Ultra, and one Q5+). Mine have lots of navigation issues that by now I would have expected to get better with software updates, but if anything they have become worse. Dealing with tech support is a painful exercise of providing purch

Map gone crazy

After the factory reset, did you let it update all the firmware fully before remapping? Honestly I'd send it back for a refund if you can, these Q5,Q7,Q10 bots aren't even real roborocks, they are mostly made in a factory they bought off Irobot, that made irobots and TPlink crapware, with roborock s

Help, did I get a stupid one?

Yeah you did, it's not even a real roborock, send it back. The Q5, Q7, Q10's are some cheap bots made in a factory roborock bought that used to make irobots. They are irobots with roborock software shoved over the top.

Help with binding Q7t+

Oh god, send it back, don't buy roborocks starting with Q5, Q7, or Q10. They aren't even real roborock hardware which is why they suck. Send it back for a full refund.

More Saros 10R issues

My whole house takes about 50 minutes to do a single vac/mop pass once the maps are fine tuned. I have a 3 carpeted bedroom house with tile hallways and bigger open plan kitchen/lining room. The mapping depends on which actual robot you have. I would wager the bottom one is one of those Q5, Q7 or Q1

Roborock Q10 S5+ Constantly going offline.

Send it back, the Q10 isn't even a real roborock! IT'S AN IMPOSTOR! Avoid any starting with Q5, Q7 or Q10. The Q8's are supposedly ok, just a cheap version of the s8, but still made in the proper roborock factory.

Brand new Q7 M5+ not charging

Most of them are real but there are differences. But the ones with a Q then a number after it(like Q5, Q7, Q10) seem to be the ones made in a different factory. I think the named Q's are made in the main production line, like Q revos, curv. All of the Q series are essentially a cheaper bot, so the R

Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra Robot or Roborock - Qrevo Series

The Q revo is the basic cheap bot from Roborock, (apart from any of those duds with the Q5,Q7 and Q10 suffixes which aren't even roborock hardware). The least Q revo I would get now is the Curv(or the Arc it's called in some shops like Costco). The S8MVU will be far superior than most bots on the ma
