Here's the rtings review of the q7 max: https://www.rtings.com/vacuum/rev...x-plus-max
It's not perfect though, so we do make an effort to keep our floors generally tidy and clear so the vacuum can do its thing.

The Ultra dock does not make sense unless you can hook it up to a water supply and drain, at least not for more than double the cost.
Price is what you pay, value is what you get.
If you're spending $1000 on a vacuum, shouldn't it remove the necessity of having to remove items from being stuck in the robot? It's supposed to be advanced? even has a camera, and STILL can't avoid objects. Given the alternatives, at cheaper prices, it doesn't justify the price for differential in performance. It's like buying Tesla stock over Stellantis. One is overvalued and doesn't perform much better than the other, at all.
With the Ultra you still have to fill up the water tank and empty the dirty water, so really it saves very little if any time..
If 5 mins a week is too much then your time would be worth enough to pay a cleaning person at that point.
Like I said, I have no debt and am a thrifty mf'er. You cant classify people as spenders just because they see value in something utilitarian.

To each their own.
PS: The price delta between the Ultra and Plus model is roughly $140 on their ebay page. The added functionality is still worth it in my case

I dont like including the mop pads in the wash unless it's the floor mats (which I wash monthly), so it's more like 5-10m emptying the bin(prior bot didnt have a base station) scrubbing the pads and prepping the water and solution. I guess I could have streamlined the process by buying $50 worth of pads, but that still doesn't address the peace of mind I get from knowing the bot hasnt eaten sh!t, toys or cat food while I'm away.

I tried to look it up, but it seems to be comparisons with the S8 Pro Ultra, not seeing a lot on the Plus. Based on a Reddit comment, sounds like the Plus may be missing the mop cleaner at the base, which would be nice to have since we are looking to do this on a full main floor of hard flooring and three pets.
The simple answer: they have higher earnings….ouch.

The S7 MaxV(V stands for vision; not to be confused with the Max that this thread is about!) has the RGB camera along with all the hardware included in the S8. However, the S8 is almost as good as the MaxV at avoiding obstacles and "may" improve or surpass it with future updates.
TL;DR: The S8 Plus is still leaps and bounds ahead of the S7 Max Ultra robot when it comes to smart navigation. If that is more important to you than the mop service station, the S8+ is the way to go for you(or S7 MaxV Plus/Ultra if you can find them for less)
