Qrevo Master
3 independent reviewsRead the findings →A former top Qrevo from Roborock, with twin rubber rollers and a mop and side brush that swing out for edges. It's strong at vacuuming and mopping. It's hit and miss at dodging small things like toys and cables.

What reviewers found
Three hands-on tests: TechRadar over several weeks at home and in a village hall, Vacuum Wars with its measured bench tests, and Robotobzor. All three found the vacuuming and mopping strong and liked Roborock's app. They split on obstacle avoidance. Vacuum Wars scored it well above average and Robotobzor found it good in daylight, while TechRadar watched it run over dog toys and drag a charging cable round a rug.

Hard floors
Reviewers rate it highlyTechRadar weighed 21g of a 22g mix of oats, pasta, cereal and flour collected from a hard floor, and Vacuum Wars found near-perfect sweeping. Robotobzor saw a little dirt left in corners, as the pop-out side brush extended at the wrong moment.
Carpet and rugs
Reviewers rate it highlyOn a medium-pile rug, TechRadar got essentially all of its test mix back, and Vacuum Wars measured better-than-average removal of sand worked into carpet. Robotobzor found short carpet cleaned well, with medium pile needing a couple of passes.
Pet hair
Mixed resultsTechRadar found it tackled pet hair well, with the dock emptying hairy bins without clogging. Robotobzor found the rollers stayed mostly clear but gathered hair at their edges, and hair tangled on the side brush.
Mopping
Reviewers rate it highlyVacuum Wars rated its mopping near-perfect on dried coffee and grape juice, and TechRadar saw a milk and soy sauce spill cleared in one sweep, though a slightly sticky residue remained. Both liked the pad that swings out along skirting boards.
Navigation and obstacles
Mixed resultsMapping is excellent: TechRadar never saw it lose its way in a large village hall. Avoidance varies. Vacuum Wars scored it well above average, but TechRadar saw it run over dog toys and drag a cable, and Robotobzor found it missed objects in the dark.
Dock and upkeep
Reviewers rate it highlyTechRadar found the dock's suction cleared dog and cat hair into the bag without clogging and left little else to do, and Vacuum Wars liked the removable tray and hot-water mop wash.
App and software
Reviewers rate it highlyTechRadar knows no better robot app for comprehensiveness and ease of use, with saved routines on the home screen. Vacuum Wars also rates Roborock's app among the best.
Noise
Not enough evidenceOnly Robotobzor measured it, at 62 to 69dB while cleaning and about 73dB when the dock cleans itself, which it called average or better. No second qualifying review judged noise.
Reliability and support
Not enough evidenceNo qualifying review has run it long-term or judged Roborock's support yet.
Value
Mixed resultsRobotobzor called it a fantastic balance of features and cleaning at around $900. TechRadar thinks it's not great value at full price, better on the common discounts, and notes cheaper robots come close.
Verdicts come from independent, hands-on, finished reviews. An area needs at least two of them before we say more than “Not enough evidence”. We don't score robots ourselves. How this works
Strong pickup on carpet and hard floors
TechRadar weighed its results. On hard floor it collected 21g of a 22g mix of oats, orzo, cornflakes, flour and crackers, and on a medium-pile rug it got essentially all of it. Vacuum Wars found near-perfect sweeping and better-than-average removal of sand worked into carpet, with the pop-out side brush helping in corners. Robotobzor was a little more cautious, saying it cleans short carpet well and needs a couple of passes for medium pile.
Ignore the airflow figure
Vacuum Wars measured only 13 CFM of airflow on the top setting, below average and level with the S8 MaxV, yet it still did well in the practical pickup tests. That's a good reminder that pickup results tell you more than power figures. TechRadar notes the 10,000Pa claim is lower than on Roborock's newer robots, but thought it enough for almost any floor except perhaps very deep carpet.
Near-perfect mopping, right to the edge
Vacuum Wars found strong removal of dried coffee and grape juice. TechRadar cleared milk and soy sauce in one pass, though a slightly sticky residue was left. Both liked the pad that swings out to the edges. The mops lift by a claimed 10mm over carpet. Vacuuming carpets before the pads get wet keeps damp fabric off them, but you may still want carpet avoidance switched on for later mop runs.
Testers disagree on obstacle avoidance
Vacuum Wars avoided 10 of 12 test objects. Robotobzor avoided all six in good light but only half in darkness, and one of the misses was simulated pet waste. TechRadar also caught toys and a phone cable. Light clearly mattered in Robotobzor's test, but nobody has shown that firmware explains why the three outlets differ. Pick up small hazards before it runs, especially if it cleans at night.
The dock and app save work
TechRadar found the dock's suction strong enough to clear dog and cat hair into the 2.2-litre bag without clogging, and in five weeks of cleaning a 127-square-metre village hall it never got stuck. Vacuum Wars liked the removable tray for cleaning the dock and the hot-water mop wash. Both rate Roborock's app among the best, with room settings, no-go zones and routines. Robotobzor measured 62 to 69dB while cleaning and about 73dB when the dock cleans itself.
Our take
Should you buy the Qrevo Master?
Best for: Homes with both hard floors and carpets. Skip it if: You need it to fit under low furniture.
Consider the Qrevo Master for a mix of floors if edge mopping and automatic dock care are priorities. Clear small toys and cables, which caused problems in some tests. Its 10.3cm body also needs checking against your furniture. The Qrevo Pro offers extending edge mopping without the camera; compare current offers rather than assuming it is always cheaper.
The Qrevo Master arrived in May 2024 at the top of Roborock's Qrevo family, above the Qrevo Pro. It keeps the Pro's two spinning mops, one of which swings out to reach skirting boards, and adds a pair of rubber rollers instead of one, a side brush that also pops out into corners, a front camera that recognises objects, and a higher suction claim. The dock empties the bin, refills the water, and washes the mops in hot water before drying them.
It's no longer new. At 10.3cm tall with a raised sensor, it won't get under sofas that Roborock's slimmer Saros models reach, and it lacks the lifting body the Qrevo Curv uses to climb raised doorway thresholds. It makes most sense when you find it discounted rather than at full price.
Before you buy
The questions people ask about this one
Will it avoid cables and pet mess?
It depends on the test, and Robotobzor found it worse in darkness. TechRadar’s unit dragged a phone cable and ran over toys, while Robotobzor had it hit simulated pet waste in a dark room. Clear cables and check for pet accidents before each run.
Does it fit under low furniture?
Not very low furniture. It's 10.3cm tall, per the specifications, and Robotobzor found it needed a 10.5cm gap. TechRadar flags the height as a drawback next to Roborock's slimmer models, so measure under your sofa and bed first.
Can it keep wet mops off my carpet?
Mostly. It lifts the pads 10mm over carpet, per the specifications, and Vacuum Wars notes it can vacuum carpets before wetting the mops. Robotobzor adds that it can avoid carpets altogether while mopping. For thick rugs, that avoid setting is the safer choice.
Can it cross rugs and raised thresholds between rooms?
Robotobzor got it over a 2cm threshold in its test, but that won't cover every doorway shape. Measure any taller or uneven raised strips between rooms, because the Master doesn't have the lifting chassis some newer models use.
How big is the dock, and is it loud?
It's 52.1cm tall, 34cm wide and 48.7cm deep, per the specifications, which TechRadar found considerably taller than many rivals. Robotobzor measured about 73dB when the dock cleans itself and called that average.
How often do I have to empty or refill anything?
The dock empties the robot and tops up its onboard water, but the dock’s own tanks are your job. You refill the 4-litre clean-water tank, empty the 3.5-litre dirty-water tank and rinse the removable tray as needed. Roborock’s seven-week dust-bag claim doesn't cover those more frequent chores.
Alternatives
Other robot vacuums to compare.
Qrevo Curv
Why consider it: RTINGS and TechRadar found it excellent on hard floors, with strong edge cleaning and a lifting chassis that TechRadar found handled loose rugs well.
The compromise: Testers split on carpet, and it still misses small hazards such as phone cables.
Saros 10R
Why consider it: RTINGS found it thorough on hard floors, generally dependable at avoiding obstacles and slim enough for low furniture.
The compromise: RTINGS found a lot of embedded pet hair left in carpet, and USB leads and rug tassels still caught it out.
L40 Ultra
Why consider it: An extending brush and mop plus a full station, and TechRadar's reviewer was delighted with it on animal hair.
The compromise: RTINGS found much weaker pickup, and the roller in the box varies between offers.
