Roborock Q7 Max

Verdict

The Roborock Q7 Max shines on carpets, hard-floor pickup, and hair resistance, making it a strong cleaner if you can tolerate its loud operation and poor obstacle avoidance. It is not a serious mopping robot, but as a vacuum-first machine with good value, it’s a compelling mid-range choice.

Pros

  • Hair‑Wrap / Tangle Resistance 1 review 5.0
    Hair-wrap resistance is a major strength, with the Q7 Max earning top scores in both short and long hair tests and leaving only minimal strands on the brush after cleaning.
  • Hard Floor — Fine Dust Pickup 1 review 4.5
    The Q7 Max performs very well on hard floors, typically picking up nearly all flour and cereal and ranking near the top of mixed-debris tests with only small patches or specks left behind.
  • Price & Value 1 review 4.0
    Given its lower price and strong vacuuming and hair performance, the Q7 Max offers good value for buyers who care more about vacuuming than advanced navigation or mopping features.
  • Overall opinion 1 review 3.8
    Overall, the Q7 Max is seen as a capable mid-range vacuum that excels at hard-floor pickup and hair handling but is held back by loud operation, basic obstacle avoidance, and weak mopping.

Cons

  • Noise level 1 review 2.2
    Noise levels are on the high side, with the Q7 Max measuring among the loudest Roborocks in both low- and high-power tests and earning only mid- to low-tier noise ratings.
  • Mopping performance 1 review 2.0
    Mopping performance is minimal, as its pad barely lightens dried stains in one-pass tests, placing the Q7 Max among the least effective models for dedicated mopping tasks.
  • Obstacle Avoidance (Robot) 1 review 1.5
    Obstacle avoidance is poor: the Q7 Max frequently collides with small objects like remotes, boxes, and taller items, placing it among the weakest performers in avoidance trials.
