Hair wrapped around a robot vacuum’s brush causes many people to abandon their robots, but the Roborock Q7 M5 Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo takes this head-on. The Dual Anti-Tangle System pairs a JawScrapers comb main brush with an anti-tangle side brush, both TÜV Rheinland-certified, to reduce hair tangles. HyperForce suction reaches 10,000Pa, and the 360-degree LiDAR sensor maps your home while allowing simultaneous vacuuming and mopping in one pass.

The Q7 M5 performs both tasks at once. While it’s vacuuming up dust, crumbs, and pet hair, a mop pad trails behind to wipe the floors clean. Instead of needing multiple cleaning sessions for each task, you can accomplish both in one cleaning session, using the Roborock app to schedule, adjust suction levels, and set the amount of water the mop uses.
On carpets and hard-to-reach areas with gaps between flooring, HyperForce suction at 10,000Pa pulls debris away from these areas and into the vacuum. Strong suction matters, especially on rugs, since dirt settles beneath the rug’s surface. A robot with weak suction may glide across the top layer of the rug without lifting much dirt and debris. According to Roborock, the high-suction fan picks up 95% of hair.
You’ll likely see the most noticeable benefit of the Dual Anti-Tangle System week to week in keeping your brushes tangle-free. The JawScrapers comb on the main brush prevents longer hair and pet fur from wrapping around the roller, and the side brush is designed to minimize tangling as well. Using scissors to cut tangles off your brushes will become a thing of the past.
A PreciSense LiDAR scanner creates a precise 360-degree map of your entire room. This allows the robot to follow a planned route instead of randomly bumping into walls. You can control it through the app to select specific rooms, designate “no-go” zones, or send the robot back to an area of the house that needs extra cleaning.
The Roborock app lets you schedule cleanings while you’re away at work or sleeping, so when you return home, you may find the floors cleaned. You also have the option of selecting different suction modes for each area, such as using a lower suction mode for bedrooms to keep it quiet and reserving the higher suction mode “Max+” for a rug located nearest to an entryway, which tends to collect the most dirt.
You can also adjust water flow during mopping. It offers three settings for varying amounts of water, depending on whether you’re working on hardwood or tile. The Roborock Q7 M5 Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo also supports voice assistants, and it automatically returns to its charging dock when its battery gets low.
