Roborock Maintenance for Best Performance

I need a robot to clean my cleaning robot.

Thanks for the tutorial. One tip from my side: be 100 percent sure that the filter is really dry after rinsing. Inserted mine after 1 day, seemed not to be totally dry and that killed my s7 😂

thank you for the extremely clean presentation of how to maintain the roborock .

Thank you so much. This is by far the best instructional video that I have run across dealing with my Roborock S7. I had several issues understanding the manual as a majority of it did not explain exactly how to clean the Main brush😅😊 I am going to save your instructional video for later periodic maintenance.

Big thanks! Was quite scary removing the front wheel, since it sat so tight, but you gave me the courage!

Thanks you ! You're one among rares to show how to unmount the omnidirectional wheel. I didn't dare to force with my screwdriver, and didn't know if the WHOLE wheel (the circular part, rotating) should be leveraged too. Hopefully this video was here. So many thanks.

Thank you so much, you explained everything perfectly. You’re a life saver!

Excellent instructions on how to clean my Roborock Q7 Max. I went and got the pad out of the trash as I didn't know I could wash it. Thank you!!!!!!!

It made my life ! Lol. I sit back and watch my house get dust free! Feels so clean. Thanks for the video too.

Great YouTube tutorial. Clear, and helped us work out how to clip back in the housing for main brush. THANKS.

Great demonstration! Now I can clean every detail without being afraid to break anything. Thanks 🤗🕊️

Very helpful video, thanks for making this. I just got a Roborock T7 and it's basically the same machine, so this was a useful reference point. Your instructions were clear and the video's well edited. The only thing in the video I'd change is don't wash the filter, it clogs it up and doesn't remove dust. Use a proper vacuum or brush to get the dust off the filter. Or get some cheap replacement filters, and replace the filters more regularly. The Roborock subreddit has some good tips.

Leaving a comment just in case anyone runs into a similar problem: I was receiving error 18 (fan error). If the air filter gets too dirty, that can be one potential cause of the fan error because the fan isn't able to pull enough air. I followed the procedure described here to clean the filter and dustbin, and the error went away. Great video!

Thanks for such a simple demonstration you make this so easy. We love our Q7 and cleaning it for the first time today was so easy. 👍

I'm so pumped to get my S7 this weekend! Thx for the helpeful video!

What wonderfully demonstrated and explained instructions! Thank you so much for these; it’s good to be educated on how to maintain this expensive little lifesaver! I love mine - a later model, but anyway. Just awesome. Have a lovely day! 😊

Thank you 😊. Doing some maintenance on both of mine today!

Very informative and helpful video! Thank you so much!

it is much better to blow out the filters with, for example, a compressor. if you rinse it with water, you might as well seal it with wet dust.

Really helpful demo of removing and reinstalling the main brush. But I'd advise against wetting metal components, or running water through a filter containing loose dust. I bought the S5 max over a year ago. It was a game changer in terms of keeping the house looking respectable. Its only shortcoming is it doesn't raise the mop when going over carpeted areas. So, I recently upgraded to the S7. Doing so seemed like a bit of an extravagance, but I'm delighted with it. Every time I empty the dustbin I tap the dry filter against the side of my rubbish bin to dislodge loose dirt. I wash the filter fortnightly by placing the clean side under the tap, so the running water removes dirt easily, as opposed to embedding it in the filter. It's really handy to have spare filters, that way the robot isn't out of action for a day or two, while I wait for original one to dry. Spare mop pads are a good investment too. I rinse the mop pad after each use and occasionally machine wash them. Towels shed a lot of lint, clogging microfibre, and reduce the performance of mop pads, so be careful about what else you include in the load if machine washing. I take out the main brush once or twice a month to remove tangled hair. I replaced both the main brush and side brush after about 6 months. And on rare occasions, the app prompts me to clean contacts and sensors using a soft dry cloth. I don't know if it being dry is necessary to prevent water damage, but I'm not taking any chances. Aside from that, I haven't done anything else in terms of maintenance in the 15 months I've owned a roborock. My floors are always clean now, with very little effort on my part, which is not something I could have claimed before purchasing the S5 max. If you're between two minds as to whether or not to buy the S7, I'd take the plunge. For anyone without allergies, I don't think an auto empty dock is worth the extra expense. Emptying the dustbin is a quick task to perform manually. But I guess the same could be said about moving rugs, or setting no mop zones.
