What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Auto-lifting mop allows continuous cleaning across hard floors and carpet without removing the pad or making separate runs
- Newly designed floating brush housing forms a tight seal on floors, delivering strong carpet deep-clean and crevice pickup despite moderate raw suction
- Lidar navigation builds accurate maps on first run and handles multi-floor homes reliably
Reviewers push back
- Raw suction and airflow numbers test lower than previous Roborock models despite good real-world cleaning
- Rubber main and side brushes are louder than traditional bristle brushes
- Obstacle avoidance occasionally fails on soft items like blankets or loose string
Reviewers agree the S7 is an exceptional vacuum-mop hybrid with strong suction, reliable navigation, and a standout auto-lifting mop that handles mixed floors without manual intervention.
On S7: One reviewer found obstacle avoidance reliable over six months with only one or two failures; another emphasized the infrared sensors lack the camera-based AI avoidance of higher-tier models
