The S5 is an older model. The S6 Pure is a great vac for those who have a multi level home, or a mix of hard floors and carpets/rugs, and don't want or need sophisticated mopping capabilities.
(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.
Got this in the last deal. The setup process was slightly cumbersome. Some things to watch out for:
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.
Any idea where to buy OEM replacement parts for the s6? Bought one in spring, and even though there are hundreds of aftermarket sellers on Amazon selling cheap third party accessory bundles, I would prefer OEM to avoid quality and fitment issues. Prefer not to eBay or go on Chinese market ec-ommerce sites like alipay, etc.
Is there way to buy extended warranty. I see Asurion for floorcare for $33, will it apply to this ? Does it cover battery ?
I had Coredy which worked great for exactly 14 months and then battery charging is giving error and I am out of warranty.
If mopping is important to you, I would go for the S5 Max (unless your home is 100% tile floors throughout). The S5 Max has an electronic water tank, which lets you control it from the app, with things like no-mop zones. The S6 Pure is a "dumb" water tank that you either switch on or off.
Personal opinion but if you have hardwood floors, I would not use any robot vac for mopping. They just drag plain water across your floor -- that's not great for hardwood floors. So if it were me, I would be the S6 Pure and don't install the mop at all.OR if all you have is hardwood and no plush rugs, then save money and get the S4, which rides lower to the ground and is just for vacuuming hard floors or low, tight rugs.
Why do you say go for s5max unless you have tile floors throughout?
How durable are these Roborocks? I know the brand has been around only a few years
I'm done with Neato, I've owned 5 over 10 years and 4 are dead now with the last two dying less than 2 years old
I have the S6 Pure and was so happy with it that I just upgraded to the S6 MaxV.
To my surprise the MaxV is not much better. The S6 Pure has just as much suction in the normal settings, is a bit more quiet, actually finishes cleaning the house a bit faster and does just as good a job.
The big upgrade (and definitely not worth $200 more) is the electronic tank for mopping. You still pretty much need to remove/add the mop pad manually when you intend to mop even with the MaxV so what I thought would be nice to have this thing ready to mop and scheduled to do so really was not the case.
As for the Pure.
Its very efficient, fast, easy to maintain, has a great app, and I cant really find any flaws, just don't expect much for the mop feature.

This deal seems to be dead. The promo is only for items sold by Amazon and right now they're all sold by Roborock so the coupon doesn't actually apply at checkout. Contacted Amazon and they confirmed it has to be both shipped and sold by Amazon.
Picking out the right one of these (and getting a good deal) is way too complicated.Anyone want to recommend something for me?
I need virtual no go zones and pet hair friendly brushes and I don't necessarily need a mop.
All floors are LVT or Tile and the house is one level.
From the reviews i've seen/read, the no-go zones work incredibly well and accurate. The S6 Pure works decent (none are perfect) for hair. The S4 is about $40 cheaper but older tech. At this price point, get the S6 Pure, nothing else makes sense. Unless you want to take a chance and wait for the S5 Max to come on sale for a bit lower than this.

Can anyone comment on Roborock customer service? I have an Ecovacs Deebot N79S and had an issue with it but I found their customer support wasn't great so I fixed it myself. I'm interested in eventually upgrading to a higher quality robo vac with mapping capabilities, preferably from a company with a better customer service track record.
I think s6 pure may be best for you based on your needs. Roborock's app and tech are very polished. Their robots are very smart, feel like using an iphone, if you get my drift... If you think you will mop then S5 Max is best. Either way, you have until 1/31 to try if you get it from Amazon.
How does Amazon handle returns of robot vacuums? If you try it and do not like it, can you merely return it no questions asked, or must you provide a justification (for example - item is defective?). Appreciate input from anyone who has experience with this. Thanks!

It does not say Free returns so bit reluctant to make the purchase
