Roborock has launched its latest robot vacuum cleaner, the Roborock Qrevo Slim, now available for purchase in the United States on Amazon. Initially announced earlier this year at the IFA trade show in Europe, this highly anticipated release is distinguished by its compact design, advanced mopping features, and multifunctional docking station.
Ultra-Compact Design for Hard-to-Reach Areas
The Qrevo Slim robot measures just 3.23 inches (8.2 cm) in height. This slim profile enables the robot vacuum to navigate and clean areas that are typically hard to reach, such as under furniture, beds, sofas, cabinets, TV stands, and coffee tables. The design aims to increase the effective cleaning range by accessing low-profile spaces within homes.
Advanced Navigation with StarSight Dual Light Solid-State LiDAR
Equipped with Roborock’s latest navigation technology, the StarSight Dual Light Solid-State LiDAR system, the Qrevo Slim provides a comprehensive 3D understanding of its surroundings. This advanced navigation is designed to allow for precise movement and accurate mapping, even in challenging areas like under suspended cabinets and around furniture with thin legs. The robot utilizes 3D sensors to capture detailed outlines of obstacles and an RGB camera for visual recognition, enabling it to recognize and avoid up to 73 types of objects.
Multifunctional Dock 3.0 for Automated Maintenance
The Roborock Qrevo Slim comes with a multifunctional Dock 3.0 that offers several automated maintenance features:
- Auto Mop Washing: Keeps the mops hygienically clean with minimal user effort.
- Auto Air Drying: Uses warm air to fully dry the mops and dock base, preventing unpleasant odors.
- Auto Tank Refilling: Automatically refills the robot’s water tank to maximize the mopping range.
- Auto Dust Emptying: Allows up to seven weeks without the need to manually empty the dustbin.
- Detachable Dock Base: Facilitates easy cleaning of the dock when necessary.
FlexiArm Design and Enhanced Cleaning Features
The vacuum also features a FlexiArm design for its side brush and mop, extending its reach to clean corners, edges, and areas under furniture with claimed 100% coverage. This flexible system is designed to eliminate blind spots and ensure comprehensive cleaning throughout the home.
In terms of cleaning power, the Qrevo Slim has 11,000Pa suction capability and a DuoRoller Riser Brush. The dual counter-rotating all-rubber brushes aim to reduce hair tangling and improve debris pickup across various floor types, including hardwood, tile, and carpets.
Intelligent Dirt Detection and Customizable Mopping
The robot vacuum includes intelligent dirt detection during mop washing, adjusting the wash duration based on the detected dirt level to ensure thorough cleaning. For areas with stubborn dirt, the system can automatically initiate an additional mopping pass, a feature that users can activate through the Roborock app.
Additional features include dual spinning mops with automatic lifting by 10mm when transitioning from hard floors to carpets or when returning to the dock. The mops spin at 200 RPM with consistent downward pressure to effectively remove stains. Users can customize the cleaning process with 30 levels of water flow settings to match different floor types and personal preferences.

Matter Protocol
The new Qrevo releases use the Matter protocol, an interoperability standard designed to enable communication between connected devices locally within the home, without relying on cloud connections. It aims to provide a secure, private, and user-friendly environment, compatible with a wide range of devices. Developed by major companies including Apple, Amazon, Google, and Samsung, Matter supports over 30 device types and operates over Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and the low-power mesh networking protocol Thread.
