I’ve been an irobot user for more than a decade, while they were pretty good during the “bumper car” robot era, lately their robots are disappointing to put it politely.Compared this to the irobot j9 max I had is like putting a school children against Mike Tyson, this destroys the irobot in every aspect, I am so glad that I jumped ship.While this is certainly an expensive purchase, I’d still say it’s worth it, because the robot vacuum has gotten so good that you are getting 70, 80% of the results of a human cleaner most of the time. Compared to the cost of hiring someone to vacuum and mop the floor for you on a regular basis, this is like fraction of the cost. What I like:1. It just works, I keep forgetting it’s there because I almost never need to mess with it, except for topping up water and cleaner and dump out dirty water.2. App works great, it’s easy to navigate, and easy to use, not clunky like the irobot app. All the functions do exactly what they say to do, and most importantly no connectivity issues.3. Highly effective vacuuming and mopping on both carpet and hardwood floor, it does a good job getting to the corners and edges. Also there’s no hair tangles with cat hair and my gf’s long hair.4. Incredible navigation, although pre cleaning is still recommended, pick up the obstacles, clean up the cables, and move the chairs, etc… you’d still get very acceptable results if you don’t.5. Very effective obstacle avoidance, object recognition is not perfect but it’s right almost all the time.What I don’t like:1. Non so far other than it’s pricy.

Update: July 8, 2025 I love this thing. Everything I said when I first purchased stands....times 10! My floors are finally clean! The game changer if you can afford- the spinning mop pads. The other types of floor washers just push the same dirty pad around. This goes back to the dock and washes the pads mid cleaning so you are not using the same dirty pad! Genius. Prime day...take advantage of the 300 savings...I have no regret buying for full since I have had it and been using it.OMG!!! Why have I been so "iRobot/roomba" loyal. The Roboroc Saros 10r is amazing!! It seems more thorough and so quiet compared the my roomba s9+. My last roomba s9+ was a total lemon/dud and iRobot customer service has gone by the way side unfortunately. At a time when the competition has increased in the robotic vacuum world, and when iRobot needs to step up and be what they used to be..they are dropping the ball. I still have my 4 older roombas/floor washers which still do their thing well, however when my newer S9+ died, and iRobot company looked the other way and ignored all the problems-I did a LONG and INTENSIVE research and my next purchase.My two top choices...Roboroc Saros 10r vs. the Dreame X50 were in the running. I have mostly tile with deep grout ditches which makes a loud robot movement and wood floors, so deep carpet cleaning is not my focus. Both are so similar, however reviews all over the internet/youtube videos had the Roboroc Saros 10r winning by a hair.My reason to go Roboroc saros 10r (I was really leaning to the Dreame x 50) was the use of the floor cleaning liquid WHILE washing. The Roboroc mixes it with the water in the tank which the robot works. The Dreame uses water for mopping and just uses the cleaner liquid for washing the mop pads.The fact the mop pads spin (irobot is a flat pad that just pushes the dirty pad around on your floor-then you have to remove and replace after every wash) when the Roboroc returns-it washes the mop pads with hot water!!!!I am watching the path this thing takes while it works and it is so much more organized than the roomba. The live view is great, I can tell my dogs through the live view to leave the robot alone (they harass and follow the vacuum around) and the robot will avoid them too. Go to youtube, watch all the videos.This robot so far is amazing and so much more advanced than the iRobots offered now. Very quiet, you can watch tv while it works! So far, the wifi connected right away and the app works great, but I am still figuring it out.It does not take up anymore space than my s9+ and looks really sleek. This will be my time saver as I have two big dogs, one being super fluffy and need to vacuum everyday. Plus I can mop more effectively with these spinning pads that will actually CLEAN my floors, not spread a dirty pad around.I will update if there are any issues-but if you don't hear any further from me let's just say this is a win and worth the $.

The media could not be loaded. I’m stunned by the how incredible the Saros 10R is. I’ve been a iRobot Roomba customer for twenty years, and stubbornly stayed in Roombaland much longer than I should’ve. I finally switched when my last Roomba, a once-top-of-the-line J9+ Combo, fell victim to a known charging base defect that, once broken, made recharging impossible and essentially bricked the unit. Because I was just a bit outside of warranty, iRobot wouldn’t replace my charging / mopping base and offered me $150- toward the cost of replacing it outright from them directly, which they were still selling at that time for another $1,400. I jumped ship, rage-ordered a Saros 10R on the spot, and have never looked back. I’ve owned it for the last month+ and am just gobsmacked by how much better a cleaning machine this Roborock is compared to all the other Roombas I’ve ever owned (numerous models over years). My floors have never been cleaner as the vacuuming and mopping technology this machine employs are exceedingly better than my last Roomba. It just … *works* … does what it’s supposed to, properly, when you expect it to. No more weird ‘I’m stuck’ errors or ‘I’m lost under the dining table / chairs *again* and can’t find my way out even though I’ve been here dozens and dozens of times before’ problems. No more VSLAM technology slowly chipping and scraping the hell out of my expensive walnut furniture. No more being afraid to let it run while I’m away from home because something would inevitably fail with whatever scheduled cleaning it was supposed to be running. This machine is incredible. It is solidly built. It is easy to use and set up. It quickly accurately and effortlessly mapped my home on its first mapping run. Its obstacle avoidance is superior to any other Roomba I’ve owned, and works flawlessly. It avoids bumping into any of my furniture as it is sensitive enough to get right up next to table / desk / sofa / chair / bed legs and clean around them without actually connecting or coming into contact with any of them. It’s just … well, I want to write ‘perfect’ but as nothing can be truly perfect I’ll just write I am at a loss to list anything I have a quibble with. Plus, it’s almost eerily quiet compared to my last Roomba. I can barely tell where it is in my house without looking at the app or scouting for it when it’s working unless it’s very nearby. My dog used to run out of any room my last Roomba entered, but now he just glances at the 10R and continues napping or playing or whatever without fear. My husband complained pretty frequently about how loud our last Roomba was, and I now joke to friends the Saros 10R practically saved our marriage because it’s so much quieter when it’s cleaning. My household is comprised of two adults, one pretty fluffy medium-haired cat, one small short-haired dog, no children, and mostly hard-surface flooring with low-to-medium-pile area rugs and runners in almost every room but the bathrooms. It is brand-new construction and so is without extreme-door-sill or room-threshold height challenges, but I’ve seen my Saros 10R navigate over low-furniture barriers like the base of my console and coffee tables without any difficulty whatsoever using the AdaptLift Chassis feature — that technology is pretty impressive. I love this thing. So much. If you’re a frustrated Roomba owner like I was, or looking to upgrade your Roborock, don’t hesitate — the Roborock Saros 10R … ROCKS. Ugh, sorry. I couldn’t resist.
