(By "sophisticated mopping capabilities," I mean an electronic water tank that is controlled by the app, allowing you to create the things like "no mop zones." For those features, but the S5 Max, on sale for about $80 more than this deal.)
If you have only hardwood floors, or only very tight outdoor-style rugs, or only a small 1-level home, then there are cheaper models than this (like the S4 or E4) that may suit your needs.
I have no desire for mopping, but I bought this S6 Pure last time it was at this price because it made it cheaper than the S4 Max. I just never installed the mop. It's been awesome. Highly recommend Roborock.
1. You need to use the Mi Home app. The Roborock app wasn't working (at least for me).
2. Your wifi SSID has to be alphanumeric characters only, and you have to connect to the 2.4GHz band, if your router is dual band. If you have a mesh router, it should auto-connect to the 2.4GHz band.
3. You need to give the app precise location permissions (otherwise it wasn't connecting to wifi successfully).
After the setup though, I'm fairly happy with the performance. The app isn't very polished, but it does its job. The LIDAR is definitely nice though, the mapping is fairly accurate in terms of boundaries, and drawing boundaries in the app is usable. Haven't tried the mopping feature and don't intend to.
The hardwood performance on rtings is much better than the Roomba 960, which made me gravitate towards this one, that and the zone mapping feature.

Sunken rooms are tricky. Some people get a separate robot, or install a ramp, but with the S4 Max, S5 Max, or S6 Pure, you get multi-level mapping that lets you take advantage of all the cool mapping features without having to buy a separate robot for that level. Decide on a starting point for cleaning that room, place the robot there, and tell it to starting building map of a new floor. If you start from that spot every time, it will do a great job of remembering the map and returning to that spot every time you clean it, as if that was the location of your dock.
Wonderful, thank you for helping me sort through all of the options. Will go for S6 pure or S4 Max.
Thanks
In terms of reliability, Roomba has a very strong track record. They are repairable, with parts are readily available. Roborock has only been around a couple of years, so we really don't know. But I've placed my bet on Roborock. The replaceable components like brushes, rollers, and filters are very simply and thoughtfully designed, easy to clean, and readily available. The firmware gets updated regularly, and the app keeps being improved with new features.

2 level home, mix of hardwood and low pile rugs, no need for 'off limit zones', and I would use the mop feature, but it seems like everyone says it just uses water.. The i3 self-emptying been seems like a nice feature, but I don't mind emptying the bin out every few days.

others?
Also, does it make more sense to get TWO of the lower tiered robovacs and have them run on their own floors; or just use one for both floors?
IF you want a simple, reliable robot that's going to clean the whole floor every time, than the i3 fits that bill. If you have space to dock one on each floor, and you just want to buy two and set them on auto pilot and clean everywhere once a week, then you'll both be happy with the i3+, or even with a lower priced model like the Roborock E4 that doesn't have laser mapping but does use infrared to clean in a logical pattern.
IF you want the more sophisticated mapping features, then I recommend the Roborock S4 Max (or this S6 Pure deal -- just don't install the mop). I really love the technology. Once it's mapped your house, you can have different schedules for different rooms, and you can do thinks like say "Hey Siri, vacuum the kitchen." and it gets to work. I spilled some powdered sugar this morning and just opened the app and told my Roborock to clean that spot (Didn't have to go get the robot.). It's addictng technology. The multi-floor mapping feature is also excellent, though it is definitely a compromise vs. having robots docked on each floor (Obviously, it can't clean rooms on the "other" floor automatically. You have to carry it there, then tell it what to do, but once there, it can clean rooms selectively etc.).
Some people LOVE the self-emptying bin. I personally don't get it. Instead of emptying a simple dust bin, you're buying bags and emptying bags (albeit much less frequently). Also they advertise that feature as "don't think about vacuuming for a month at a time," but I don't think I'd want to go a month without looking under the vac for things like long hair, strings, twist ties or papers that may have wrapped around the roller or clogged the intake. However, I don't have a house full of pets shedding all over the place and filling up the dustbin daily. I think those are the people who like the self-emptying bin.
As I mentioned earlier, the S4 Max and the S6 Pure are functionally pretty much the same vacuum. The difference is the S6 Pure's basic mopping functions. Since the S4 Max is in short supply and not on sale, you could buy the S6 Pure and just not install the mop.
