The Roborock Q Revo offers EVERYTHING that a robot vacuum mop can do on the market today but at an affordable price level – ideal for the user looking for both performance and value-for-money.
The Roborock Q Revo robot vacuum mop retails in Singapore at S$1,299.90 on its official stores on Lazada and Shopee. Purchase during online promotions to enjoy substantial discounts of the RRP. Dog & plant not included.
So robot home cleaners started out as just autonomous vacuum cleaners which do the basic task of being able to cover the entire floor area of wherever it has been put to work – to suck up dust and dirt into the dustbin onboard the robot.
Then a mop cloth was slapped on with a water dispenser to keep the cloth wet, so that the robot could mop the floor surface.
Roborock Q Revo freshly unboxed.
Robot vacuum mops were simple, usually round, devices with a charging dock.
In these early days, some didn’t vacuum too well while others didn’t mop too cleanly, they got easily stuck and many weren’t able to cover the entire floor area properly.
Overtime, these basic performances improved while new features were added, mainly to the dock station.
Their price tags also escalated correspondingly.

Today, docking stations can automatically refill the water container onboard the robot, wash the mop cloths, and empty the dustbin onboard during a cleaning session and at the end of it.
The latest trend is the ability of the dock to dry the mop cloth after each mopping session.
I’ve been using the Q Revo from Roborock for a while now – it does ALL of the things described above and does them well – all at a price lower than the arm-and-a-leg that other flagship models on the market today cost.

The Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni boasts a powerful suction power of up to 8000Pa and a 6400mAh lithium battery.
Departing from the normal round shape of robot vacuums on the market, the Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni has a square shape design with rounded corners, allowing the brush to reach further into corners (by 30mm) to clean better.
Other similarly-shaped robot vacuums on the market include the iRobot Roomba s9+ (with two square corners on one half and semi-circular shape on the other half) and the LG Hom-Bot.
Below the Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni are two mop pads, one corner brush and the main roller brush. Photo taken at the launch of the new flagship robot vacuum mop in Singapore.
As with the flagship models of other robot vacuum brands, the docking station – called the OMNI station – auto-refills the water tank and auto-washes (with 55°C hot water) the mop cloths on the robot vacuum at intervals during cleaning.
