We Tested the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra – And Found a Few Problems | BestRobot Review

The first robot vacuum that literally went to space? Okay, maybe not just because of its $1,600 price tag — the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra has actually been launched into the stratosphere. But space missions aside, this flagship comes packed with some insane tech. We’re talking laser-level obstacle detection, puddle recognition, a pop-out edge brush that sweeps corners, and a dual roller system with 10,000 Pa suction. Oh, and did we mention the mop lifts 20mm and vibrates like a boss? There’s even a weird little spinning disc for cleaning along walls. Sounds futuristic... but does it actually work? Is it really worth the price of a used car? We tested the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra in the real world — dirt, carpets, puddles, pet hair and chaos. Find out everything in our full review and brutal cleaning test. 00:00 Intro 00:56 Unboxing 01:50 Specs 02:25 Design 04:55 Dock Design 06:18 Dock Features 06:25 Controls 06:57 Features 08:48 Obstacle Avoidance 10:18 Puddle Detection 10:59 Stain Detection 11:13 Navigation 12:20 Carpet Test 12:46 Dark Floors 12:57 Thresholds 13:09 Under Furniture 13:16 Performance 13:44 Noise Test 14:07 Suction Power 14:39 Vacuum Test 16:27 Auto-Empty 17:01 Mopping 20:04 Mop Cleaning 22:03 Mop Drying 22:32 Verdict #RoborockS8MaxVUltra #RobotVacuumReview #BestRobotVacuum2025 #RoborockTest
