What testers say about the Roborock Q7 M5+

The Roborock Q7 M5+ is the Q7 M5 with a self-emptying dock: the same robot, with 10,000 Pa of suction, an anti-tangle main brush and side brush, lidar navigation, a clip-on mop with three water levels and a 3,200 mAh battery, on a RockDock Plus that empties the bin into a 2.7-liter bag for up to seven weeks. Wirecutter makes it its top pick, and TechRadar and RTINGS, which tested the Q7 M5 on its plain charging dock, name that robot their best budget and best cheap robot vacuum.

Wirecutter counts it among the most thorough cleaners and best navigators it tested: it remembers maps of several floors and is among the quietest robots in the test. RTINGS measured strong debris pickup, clearing most debris from hard floors in one pass and doing better on carpet than the pricier MOVA P10 Pro Ultra thanks to its bristled brush. TechRadar praises suction that is strong for the price, reliable navigation, and chunky wheels with suspension that take tall thresholds in their stride.

The limits come with the price: the side brush does not extend, so edges stay less clean, the mop is quite wet and cannot lift, so it comes off for carpet, and hair wraps around the brush. On obstacles the testers disagree: Wirecutter saw it avoid them better than its rivals, while TechRadar and RTINGS found its obstacle avoidance patchy, so clear cables and socks from the floor. For a cheap, dependable vacuum in a home that needs little mopping it is a strong pick, and the self-emptying dock makes it the better choice of the two with pets.

Roborock Q7 M5+ specifications

The numbers that matter first, then every fact by group. As published by the maker or the store we read it from.

Suction power10,000 Pa
Climbs thresholds up to0.8 in
Noise (maximum)65 dB
Battery capacity3,200 mAh
Runtime per charge180 min

Dimensionsrobot and dock

Dock, from the front 10.2 in high 7 in deep 10.2 in 8.3 in wide Robot, from the side 12.8 in across 3.9 in

From the published dimensions. The robot passes under furniture with 3.9 in of clearance or more. The dock needs a spot 8.3 in wide and 7 in deep.

Suction and brushes 3 facts
Suction power

Suction in pascal, as the maker measures it. More pascal helps on carpet, but it says little about how well the robot picks grit off a hard floor.

10,000 Pa
Anti-tangle brush

A brush that guides hair to the side instead of letting it wind around the shaft. It saves the cutting work in homes with long hair or pets.

yes
Extending side brush

The side brush swings out in a corner or along a baseboard, so the dust there is swept in too.

no
Mopping 4 facts
Mop type

How the mop is built: flat pads, two spinning discs or a roller. Discs press harder on dried-on dirt, a roller rinses itself while it works.

flat or vibrating pad
Mop lift on carpet

How far the robot lifts the mop when it drives onto a carpet. From about 0.4 in (10 mm) a medium pile stays dry.

no
Mop extends to the edges

The pad slides out along a wall or a baseboard, so the last few inches are mopped as well.

no
Automatic mop detach

The robot leaves the mop at the dock before it vacuums a carpet, so the carpet never gets wet.

no
Dock 10 facts
Empties the dust bin

The dock empties the robot’s dust bin, usually after every run. You only empty the dock’s bag or bin.

yes
Bagless

The dock collects dust in a bin instead of a disposable bag. No bags to buy, but you empty it yourself.

no
Dust bag capacity

How much the dust bag in the dock holds.

2.7 l
Dust bag lasts

How long the maker says a dust bag lasts with daily use. With pets or a lot of carpet it is shorter.

up to 49 days
Washes the mop

The dock washes the mop for you, so you do not rinse it by hand.

no
Dries the mop

The dock dries the mop afterwards, so it does not sit there wet and start to smell.

no
Hot-air drying

Drying is done with warm air instead of cold. It is faster and it helps against smell.

no
Dispenses detergent

The dock mixes detergent into the water itself, from its own bottle.

no
Plumbing hookup

The dock can be connected to the tap and the drain, so you never fill or empty a tank. It does need a connection nearby.

no
Dock size (w × d × h)

The width, depth and height of the dock. Measure the spot you have in mind, and leave room for the lid and for the robot driving in.

8.3 × 7 × 10.2 in (21.2 × 17.8 × 25.9 cm)
Navigation and obstacles 3 facts
Navigation

How the robot maps your home and follows that map. Lidar measures with a laser and works in the dark, a camera looks along and recognizes more.

LiDAR turret
Climbs thresholds up to

The highest threshold the robot takes, as the maker states it. Measure your own: the step into a bathroom or onto a balcony is often higher.

0.8 in (20 mm)
Climbing system for high thresholds

An extending leg or wheel that carries the robot over a high threshold. Without one it usually stops at about 0.8 in (2 cm).

no
Robot 3 facts
Robot height

How tall the robot is. It decides whether it fits under your sofa, bed or cabinet.

3.9 in (9.9 cm)
Robot diameter

How wide the robot is. Narrower gets between chair legs more easily, wider usually means a bigger dust bin.

12.8 in (32.5 cm)
Noise (maximum)

The noise at the highest setting, in decibel. 65 dB is like a vacuum at half power, 55 dB like a conversation.

65 dB
Battery 2 facts
Battery capacity

The capacity of the battery. It hints at the runtime, but how much the robot draws counts just as much.

3,200 mAh
Runtime per charge

How long the robot cleans on one charge, at its quietest setting. After that it recharges and carries on where it stopped.

180 min
