Roborock Q5 and Q5+ Review - 10+ Tests and Analysis

We recommend the stand-alone Q5 if your budget is more limited.

We recommend the Q5+ if you have the budget to add a self-emptying docking station.

For midrange options that can also mop, see the latest updated list of robots we recommend: www.consumeranalysis.com/guid...
In this video we analyze the Roborock Q5's carpet (general and deep cleaning), hard floor, edge, and hair (human and pet) pickup performance. We also discuss the robot's raw performance (CFM and suction), navigation and coverage, battery life, bin size, and noise output.
The Q5 is one of the best midrange robot vacuums we've tested. Compared to most other robots at its price, it offers better all-around performance, and especially better navigation.

    @@Mason-hs9oz being my first and not knowing what to expect I took a leap of faith and it does a great job. The lidar mapping and navigation is great, it works as it should. I have two dogs and works the pet hair every other day and gets it off the carpet and hardwood. I'd buy it again!

    They've done well with the low suction pressure and above average pickup performance of this. I was expecting it to have better battery life because of it and I was absolutely right. It's so efficient!

    We got a Shark IQ on Prime Day this year and, with no point of comparison, felt like it did a pretty terrific job. And at $299 I’d still have to say it does very well; I just have to start it when we leave the house because, as you mention, it’s line of travel drives me crazy. Anyway, seeing another Prime-type day coming in October, I’ve been looking at the Shark AI to have a better vacuum on the main floor and move the Shark downstairs. Yikes! I can see that for a little price difference the Q5+ is the way to go, assuming similar longevity. Our IQ experience has shown us the self-emptying dock is definitely the way to go. Thanks for you assistance!

    Thank you for the videos, I need to buy Roborock Q5 But it is not available in the Netherlands. Is the Roborock Q7 a good option, or should I wait for the Roborock Q5 to be available? Thank you

  • @tdrp1384

    Given the current similarity in price between the Q5+ and the Q7+ would it not be worth going for the Q7 even though I'm not that bothered about a mop function? I would still have it for occasional mopping and I would have the upgraded all rubber roller, which honestly I'd be tempted to upgrade straight away if I got the Q5+. Current price difference between the 2 is only around $50!

    Are you planning to look into the Q5 pro as well? Iwas hoping, the Q5 might be my carpet vacuum + navigation dream, though only the pro is available in Europe... Or is there any other 'carpet hero' with good navigation at a similar price point?

    Great review, ended up buying a Q5 after watching this video. I would also like to let you know that @elliemedina7052 (www.youtube.com/@elliemedina7052/featured) has stolen this video, chopped it up and put it on their channel to try and pass as their own.
