The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra picked up new mopping and vacuuming skills that make it one of the most exciting robot vacuums you can buy.
Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra review: an innovative and automated robot vacuum MSRP $1,800.00 Score Details DT Editors' Choice “The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra is one of the most exciting robot vacuums you can buy.” Pros Cons The robot vacuum marketplace hasn’t seen a huge amount of innovation over the years. Aside from more suction and docking stations that do a slightly better job at self-cleaning, the basic formula seems to have stagnated.
Of course, depending on how your plumbing system is set up, this type of robot vacuum might not be ideal for your home. Installation is also a bit more in-depth and could cost extra to properly set up, but there’s no denying the appeal of a fully automated docking station that can both refill clean water and drain dirty water without any manual input.
During testing, the FlexiArm performed much better than expected. On numerous occasions, I witnessed its outstretched arm pulling in pet fur and dirt from underneath chairs, under my fridge, and in the corners of bedrooms. I’ll be honest — I thought the FlexiArm was going to be a gimmick that didn’t function well in real-world environments. But after weeks of testing, I can safely say that the FlexiArm is one of the best parts of the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra.
Mopping gets a helping hand While I’m still not a big fan of the vibrating mopping plate employed on most Roborock products , there’s really nothing to complain about when it comes to the S8 MaxV Ultra’s performance. Similar to the FlexiArm design for the side brush, the robot also features an auxiliary side mop. This allows it to clean all the way to the edge of cabinets or walls, leaving margins of less than 1.68mm. It rotates at an impressive 185 rpm and serves as a nice companion to the main mopping plate, ensuring the majority of your floors are cleaned.
That means the only maintenance you need to perform is refilling the water reservoir when it gets low and emptying the dirty water tank when it’s full. You’ll also need to check on the dustbin, though it’s rated to go up to seven weeks without needing to be replaced.
