Roborock H7 pulls double duty as a cordless vacuum and a mop

Roborock is well-known for its series of robot vacuum cleaners like the Roborock S7, but the company has recently branched into handheld vacuums. The Roborock H7 is its latest model, packed full of upgrades from the previous editions of Roborock’s handheld lineup.

The first improvement that the H7 boasts over its predecessors is improved cleaning power. With 480 watts of power, the H7 is capable of sucking even deep-set dirt out of carpets and rugs. You can use it to clean everything from your mattress to the interior of your car. If you’re worried about how this might drain the battery, don’t — the H7 can run for a full 90 minutes in Eco Mode and reach a full charge in just 2.5 hours. This is a 37% percent reduction in charge time requirements over the H6, allowing you to resume cleaning that much faster.

One of the downsides of handheld vacuum cleaners is the small dust bin. The H7 has an increased dust bin capacity of 500 milliliters. If that isn’t enough, users can connect disposable dust bags to expand the amount of storage capacity the H7 offers while reducing the amount of air pollution for allergy sufferers.

Perhaps the most impressive feature of the H7 is its ability to swap to different cleaning modes. By attaching the mop accessory (sold separately), you can switch the H7 from vacuuming to mopping mode. You can easily clean both hardwood and carpeted floors this way, pulling up both dust and ground-in dirt from the floor through a combination of the two modes.

The powerful filtration system means users can capture up to 99.99% of particulates as small as 0.3 microns, improving air quality inside the home and ensuring the particles do not escape the Roborock. This, combined with the low weight (the H7 weighs in at just 3.2 pounds), makes it an ideal choice for the homeowner who wants to keep both their floors and home clean.

The Roborock H7 includes a Magnetic Easy Store system called the Magbase that lets users store all of the accessories in in a single location and easily hang the vacuum cleaner up for charging when not in use.

The Roborock H7 will be available for purchase in the United States starting in July for $500.

Narwal Freo X Ultra with dock in home

That sort of functionality doesn't come cheap, with both products carrying hefty price tags that'll put a big dent in your budget.

Because they're so expensive, you'll want to pay close attention to the differences between these two robot vacuums. Both are great additions to any household, but one might be a better fit for your needs than the other.

The Narwal Freo X Plus is an entry-level robot vacuum loaded with premium features

Narwal launched the Freo X Ultra earlier this year, and we found it to be an exceptional robot vacuum and mop combo -- though its $1,400 price tag made it a luxury item for most shoppers. Thankfully, many of the Freo X Ultra's best features can be found on the newly launched Narwal Freo X Plus, which offers an affordable alternative to the flagship vacuum and mop combo.

The Freo X Plus should be much more appealing to frugal shoppers, as it clocks in at just $400. That's a full $1,000 cheaper than the Ultra, yet it still holds up to seven weeks of dust, can lift its mopping plate when traveling on carpet, and produces up to 7,800 Pa of suction to pull out dirt and debris from your carpets. It can even apply 6 Newton units of downward pressure while mopping, allowing it to tackle tough stains with ease.
