Overview

The Q series is Roborock's budget line, lidar robots with a self-emptying dock that often sell for $200–$300. The Q7 M5+ is the simplest, with a dragged mop pad and a small 3,200 mAh battery, while the Q10 S5+ adds a vibrating, lifting mop, structured-light obstacle sensing and 150 min runtime. Neither dock washes mops, so for that the Qrevo models are the next step up. The older Q7 Max is one of the few Roborocks that Valetudo can root, but current Q models cannot.
