“I bought the roborock Q5 Pro for the same purpose and it is NOT picking the litter up from hardwood floors. I'm looking to replace it.”

“I'm sorry to report that my Roborock Q5 pro couldn't cope as well when we tested at their home.”
“I bough a roborock q5 pro from amazon a few weeks ago. It was on sale for $250 so I pulled the trigger on it after watching some reviews on YouTube of it. I have a smallish place with carpet in the bedroom while everywhere else is tile. It does a good job on both surfaces and has been able to pick up everything on my carpet.”
“My roborock q5 pro was the best $170 I've spent. Mopping feature is better than nothing, but not great. Doesn't do good with dried stains.”
“I have a Roborock Q5 Pro that I bought for 2.5 [thousand]. Totally okay for the price. It has sturdy wheels and gets around the apartment without any problems.”

“Roborock Q5 pro. Double roller with large dustbin. Small charging dock. Mop function is very basic.”
