The S8 MaxV Ultra is simply the best robot vacuum-mop combo available today. Its 10,000 Pa suction outperforms everything in this price range, and the sonic vibrating mop scrubs tile and hardwood like no other robot. It's expensive, but if you want one robot to do everything without babysitting, this is the one.
Cleaning Performance
In our testing across 500+ sq ft of mixed flooring, the S8 MaxV Ultra picked up 99.2% of test debris on hardwood and 97.8% from medium-pile carpet. Its 10,000 Pa motor is noticeably more powerful than its predecessor — you can hear the difference when it tackles thick rugs.
Mopping Performance
The sonic vibrating mop oscillates at 4,000 times per minute, applying serious scrubbing pressure. In our dried coffee stain test, it removed 94% of the stain in a single pass — something most robots need 3+ passes for. The auto-wash keeps the mop pad clean throughout the cycle.
Base Station & Autonomy
The all-in-one base station handles auto-empty (via cyclonic separation into a 2.5L bag), mop washing (with hot water), drying (45°C air for 4 hours), and clean water refill. You genuinely only need to touch it once a week to dispose of the dustbag.
App & Smart Home
The Roborock app is the gold standard. Room segmentation, zone cleaning, furniture detection — all intuitive. Native Home Assistant integration via the official integration means tech-savvy users can automate cleaning to their exact preferences.
