Certainly a good deal. Me being a germ freak, I wouldn't want a refurbished vacuum.. who knows how nasty the previous owner was... assuming they're worse than I am lol
This is a great little vacuum just make sure you do maintenance on it if you want it to last. That includes removing rollers to clean, wheels, brushes and using alcohol wipes on the sensors.
Got this guy about two or more years ago... I have a great pyr that loves to dig, eat mud and run everywhere in the house. The vacuum has held up and still runs. I use it multiple times a week, replace the filter and brushes every month or so and have taken it apart once to thoroughly clean it. Still going!
Also the company updates the app and functionality a lot so that's a huge plus, however Xiaomi has had some negative controversy with spying on its users, so do your own research and determine for yourself what you're comfortable with.
For me, it's a huge time relief and definitely worth the money... As for the spying IDK what I believe but if they do, they're not finding anything too useful out about me 🤷🏼
Is this a good price for the s6? In the market for a robovac and don't know what to get. Want to try to keep it under $400-500
I have the S6 pure and it's great for my 2 floor house. I agree with the other poster that if you care about having an auto empty bin, or a mop that raises and lowers depending on the type of surface, than the extra $$ is certainly worth it. (it's actually more than $100.. the OP is $330 and the S7 right now I believe is $599).
For us, the autobin is nice, but honestly emptying the little garbage bin from the roborock every 2 cleaning sessions takes 15 seconds. Obviously not as much of a chore as some people make it out to be.
Other than that, the LIDAR and floor mapping technology is FANTASTIC on the S6 pure. Once it runs around your house once or twice mapping itself, it never skips a beast. We've run ours everyday since last Thanksgiving and it does its job like clock work. For $330, I wouldn't even think about the purchase if I was in the market - buy it. Plus if you hate it, Amazon has free returns.
The 360 S9 is available on Amazon with a $130 coupon, bringing the price from $549 to $419. The 360 series is as good as Roborock's high end, with multi floor mapping, all the fancy radar tech, object avoidance, mopping, etc.

Take the plunge and get the s7 for $100 more than your budget...will have an auto empty bin and water tank coming out (for a fee of course)
The water tank will be a part of the auto empty bin?

lol my bad, i thought i saw somewhere it will have a tank for refilling, but seems to be non-existent. Auto empty dock would be worth it though!
I'm curious what it will cost.wondering if they will package it at a similar price to what it is now
