Best Roborock Vacuum Cleaner: Which Model Should You Buy?

It depends on your priorities, and Roborock's UK range in our ten-model catalogue spans roughly £160 to £1,200. The Q7 M5 (£159.99) is the cheapest self-emptying option, with a HEPA filter and mop combo included even at the entry price. The Q10 S5+ (£249.99) adds HEPA filtration alongside self-emptying for allergy or pet-hair households, backed by 1,249 ratings on file. The Qrevo S5V (£429.99) has the lowest stated noise level in the range at 55 dB, well below the 64-65 dB typical of most other listed models. The Saros 10 (£1,199.99) has the longest runtime in our catalogue at 220 minutes, ahead of the Qrevo Edge 2 and Saros 20 at 190 minutes, making it the strongest choice for larger homes. There's no single model that's best for everyone — all ten models we track are app-controlled and combine vacuuming with mopping, so the real differences come down to price, noise, runtime and filtration.

Broadly, Q7 and Q10 are Roborock's entry-to-mid-tier models, typically pairing a bagless onboard bin with an auto-empty dock at the lowest price points in our catalogue — the Q7 M5 starts the range at £159.99. Qrevo sits in the mid-to-premium tier, generally adding multifunctional docks, and on some models quieter operation, such as the Qrevo S5V's 55 dB noise level, or larger dock reservoirs, such as the 2.7 L figures on the Qrevo S Pro and S5V. Saros is the flagship tier, with the longest runtimes and most sophisticated dock hardware in our catalogue — the Saros 10 runs for up to 220 minutes at £1,199.99, the top price in the range. Price generally rises across these tiers, from £159.99 for the entry Q7 M5 up to £1,199.99 for the flagship Saros 10, though individual models vary and all ten combine vacuuming with mopping regardless of tier.

Look for a model listed with a HEPA filter, which is designed to trap fine dust and allergen particles rather than just larger debris. In our ten-model dataset, the Q7 M5 (£159.99), Qrevo Edge 2 (£549.99), Q10 S5+ (£249.99), Q10 S5 (£179.99), Qrevo Curv 2 Pro (£799.99) and Saros 10 (£1,199.99) are listed with a HEPA filter, spanning the full price range from entry-level to flagship. A self-emptying dock is also worth prioritising for pet-heavy homes, since it reduces manual bin handling — of these six HEPA-equipped models, only the Q10 S5 lacks self-emptying, so the Q10 S5+ at £249.99 may be the more practical upgrade if you want both features without stepping up to the pricier Qrevo or Saros tiers. Some other models in our dataset don't have HEPA status confirmed, so treat its absence as unconfirmed rather than a definite no before ruling a model out.

No. Nine of the ten Roborock models in our current catalogue are self-emptying, but the Q10 S5 (£179.99) is not, which is one reason it's priced £70 below the otherwise similar Q10 S5+ at £249.99 — both share a 0.35 L bin and a HEPA filter, so self-emptying is effectively the main feature you're paying the extra £70 for. Every other model we track, from the entry-level Q7 M5 (£159.99) up to the flagship Saros 10 (£1,199.99), includes a self-emptying dock as standard, so within this range it's the norm rather than a premium-only feature. If hands-off bin emptying matters to you and budget is tight, the Q7 M5 shows that self-emptying is available even at the lowest price point in our catalogue, rather than something you need to pay Qrevo or Saros prices to get.

Among the models with a stated noise figure in our ten-model dataset, the Qrevo S5V has the lowest at 55 dB, compared with 64–65 dB for most other listed models such as the Q10 S5, Q7 L5+, Q10 S5+, Qrevo S Pro, Qrevo Edge 2 and Saros 20. At £429.99, the Qrevo S5V sits in the mid-to-premium price range, so its quieter operation isn't confined to the cheapest models. The Saros 20 is louder at 64 dB despite costing £998.99, well above the Qrevo S5V's £429.99, showing that a higher price doesn't guarantee a quieter machine in this range. Several models in our catalogue, including the Q7 M5, Qrevo Curv 2 Pro and Saros 10, don't have a confirmed noise figure yet, so they can't be ranked against the 55–65 dB models with data on file.

In our current ten-model dataset, Roborock models range from £159.99 (Q7 M5) up to £1,199.99 (Saros 10), with most mid-range models sitting between roughly £200 and £550 — the Q10 S5+ at £249.99, Qrevo S5V at £429.99, and Qrevo S Pro and Qrevo Edge 2 both at £549.99. Above that band, the Qrevo Curv 2 Pro (£799.99) and Saros 20 (£998.99) sit closer to the flagship Saros 10's £1,199.99 than to the mid-range Qrevo models. Price generally tracks feature tier: the cheapest models still include self-emptying and HEPA filtration in several cases, such as the £159.99 Q7 M5, while the priciest models add longer runtimes and more advanced dock automation, such as the Saros 10's 220-minute runtime.

"Hoover" is a commonly used generic UK term for a vacuum cleaner, regardless of brand, dating back to Hoover's early dominance of the vacuum market. "Roborock hoover" simply means a Roborock-branded robot vacuum cleaner, not a specific product name — so if you've searched that term, you're likely looking for the same models covered throughout this guide, from the entry-level £159.99 Q7 M5 up to the flagship £1,199.99 Saros 10. All ten models in our catalogue are robot vacuums that combine vacuuming with mopping and app control, rather than a corded upright or cylinder machine that the word "hoover" might otherwise bring to mind for some UK shoppers. Whichever term you use to search, you'll land on the same Q-series, Qrevo-series and Saros-series lineup, so it's worth using the specific model names and price points in this guide once you're ready to compare individual options rather than the generic term.
