What is the difference between S6 pure and S5 Max?
Do not confuse the S6 Pure and the S5 Max. If mopping is important to you, and you have anything but the simplest apartment with say, all tile floors, get the S5 Max.

Here's the way to think of the Roborock lineup. They are all great vacuums:

E2/E3/S4/S5/S6 - All older models to be avoided unless it's an amazing deal.

E4 / E5 - Very similar vacuums. Excellent bargain choice for a small home (or floor of a home) where you just want it to vacuum the entire place on a schedule every time. No LIDAR navigation. No mapping of rooms. No partial vacuuming. The E4 came out before the current Roborock app was released, so it uses an older app. The E5 uses the newer app where you can see where your robot is.

S4Max / S6 Pure - Very similar vacuums. Sophisticated LIDAR navigation, rooms, zones, levels, no-go zones. The S4Max is vacuum only and really the best model for most people. The S6 Pure adds a very basic mopping feature (the mop is either on or off: Attach the reservoir and it wipes your floor with water.)

S5 Max / S6 MaxV - Very similar vacuums. Choose the S5 Max if mopping is important to you. These models have an electronic water tank for mapping out smarter mopping/no-mopping zones. (The S6 MaxV adds obstacle avoidance cameras that theoretically will steer around dog poop. Not worth the price.)

S7 - Newest model that vibrates while it mops, to theoretically clean better. Also has an expensive self-emptying option.

Roborock makes great products. I recommend S4 Max for most people, S5 Max for those who insist they want mopping.

And this is a great deal.

Picked up refurb off ebay a few days ago with extended warranty and I love it so far. Very programmable in app. Does really well on hard floors. Lots of customization of zones and scheduling and features in the app. Haven't used mop function yet, but wife and I are both very happy with it, although it does not deal with shag carpets well, FYI. I just zoned off the shag rug in the app and it doesn't attempt to go on it anymore.

So much more functionality than very old Neato I had years ago. Technology is so much better than it used to be.

This is the lowest price ever and very likely the best deal. Don't @me if a price appears by January that's $10 or $20 less, but this is a safe hot deal.

I live in a one bed apartment with hardwood floors in living room and bathroom. Carpet in bedroom.

Do you think E5 would be good enough? I will be staying here for atleast an year and am pretty clear person so don't mind mopping by swiffer once a week.

E5 is for 240. Difference of $130 from S5 Max

S5 MAX uses the entry P5 platform like the S4 MAX and S6 Pure. Only difference is that it has electronics for the larger pressured E-tank. It's basically a stripped down T7 (Never released outside of china) with the weaker 2000 PA motor and worse sensor layout from the P5.

S6 MAX is the Chinese T7 PRO with worse charger, floor matt etc. Only thing similar in the S5 MAX is the updated motor location (Same with s4 max/s6pure) (vs s50/s6) and bigger E tank design.

The standard S6 uses the original S50 platform. It has better build (IMO) than the P5 models, but updates are cut off. You also get the better charger, floor mat etc.. 2 filters, 2 washable filters, disposables.. Its now discontinued in NA or so it seems.

Yes absolutely, as long as you don't have any obstacles you'd like to have your vac always avoid, and you're good with the entire apartment being vacuumed with each run.
