About this model

A lift of 0.2 inches separates the Roborock S8+ from most robots that empty their own bin, whose mop pads do not lift at all. Vacuum Wars, which tested it beside the Roborock Q8 Max+, noted what follows: the S8+ vacuums the rugs and mops the hard floor in one run, where the Q8 Max+ needs its pad taken off by hand and a second run.

What testers say about the Roborock S8+

A lift of 0.2 inches separates the Roborock S8+ from most robots that empty their own bin, whose mop pads do not lift at all. Vacuum Wars, which tested it beside the Roborock Q8 Max+, noted what follows: the S8+ vacuums the rugs and mops the hard floor in one run, where the Q8 Max+ needs its pad taken off by hand and a second run.

The station does nothing for that mop. It is 17.6 inches high and 17.3 inches from front to back, where rivals get by with 13.1 inches and 9.4 inches, and for that bulk it only empties the bin. The pad still has to be pulled off and washed at the sink.

Around clutter it is a little above the field, 2.6 on the Vacuum Wars five-point scale when half the robots tested stay under 2.375, helped by a light for dark corners. Its other results are even rather than high. The vacuuming score lands exactly on the lab's median, and a 5,200 mAh battery, large beside the usual 3,200 mAh, buys 180 minutes of running, only 5 minutes more than its peers get.

Pros

  • Vibrating mop lifts over rugs, so it vacuums and mops in one run Vacuum Wars ↗
  • Steers around clutter better than most robots, with a light for dark corners Vacuum Wars ↗
  • Gets embedded sand out of carpet far better than the typical robot Vacuum Wars ↗

Cons

  • The dock empties the bin, but you still wash the mop pad yourself Vacuum Wars ↗
  • Long human hair still tends to collect around the rollers Vacuum Wars ↗
  • Battery efficiency was only average next to the Q8 Max+ Vacuum Wars ↗

Each point sums up, in our words, the review of the test it names, and its link leads to that review. We do not summarize RTINGS or Wirecutter: their lists are linked above.
