Talk of the Roborock brand is to do it one of the main brands in the field of home cleaning. It began being known as the manufacturer of Xiaomi robots, but after the enormous success of its S5 (or S50) model, usually referred to by many as Xiaomi Vacuum 2, Roborock began its solo takeoff, which accelerated in 2019 by creating its European division.
From there, the brand has obtained great acceptance in the market, with products full of design and technology, with great quality and a high degree of performance, which have allowed it to position itself as one of the references in the segment, both in broom vacuum cleaners (with its models H6 y H7 among Dyson's main competitors) and in robot vacuum cleaners, with machines as successful as the S5 Max, S7, or the latest generation models Q5 +, Q7 +, S7 MaxV Ultra or the S7 Pro Ultra that stars in this review, which offer a comfort in handling that was unthinkable a few years ago.
The Roborock S7 Pro Ultra has many similarities with the brand's top of the range, the S7 MaxV Ultra (possibly the best robot in history), thus placing it as one of the best machines on the market, ideal for those looking for a high-performance robot.

Box contents
Start up
The robot comes partially charged, but It is advisable to fully charge it before using it for the first time.. To do this, we look for a location for the base, which, being somewhat larger than usual - due to its triple tank - takes up more space than a normal charging base, with measurements of 42,2 x 49,3 x 42,0 centimeters. .
We will place the base on a flat and stable surface (usually on hard ground), and It is advisable to leave some free space on the sides and in front to facilitate the movements of the robot, although given the enormous precision with which it moves, this is not strictly necessary.
La base It has a cable holder on the back, and you have to fit the lower part, something very simple and intuitive, you just have to align it with the main body and press until you hear a click.
We place the robot on the base, so that the terminals (the metal plates through which it charges) are in contact with those of the base, and we will hear a message telling us that it has started loading (the message appears in English, but then you can change the language of the voice notifications to Spanish and others, from the app).
Once loaded, we can put the Roborock S7 Pro Ultra to work through the buttons on its top; It is also manageable by voice commands (compatible with Alexa, Google Home and Siri) and using an app, the application being the best way to take advantage of all its advanced functions.
Installing the app
As usual in robots from this firm, the Roborock S7 Pro Ultra It can be controlled through the Xiaomi Mi Home app, or using the brand's own app, both available for iOS and Android.
If you are used to the first one, you can use it without problem, but if you don't care We recommend that you use the Roborock app, designed specifically for their machines, so it can be more adapted and personalized. In any case, both share most of the characteristics, being very complete and easy to use, and even having a similar appearance.
Once the app is installed and an account is created, if you do not have one, The application itself will guide us through the process, in a simple and intuitive way.
With the application installed, we will enjoy great comfort and versatility in handling the robot, since we can control it whenever we want and wherever we are: from the street, work, a cafeteria, etc., so that when we get home we will always have it clean (of course, the robot can also be programmed to work on the days and hours we want, creating personalized cleaning routines ).
To use some advanced functions it is necessary to have a plan of the house, so the first thing we will do is map the home, starting the task from the charging base and leaving the doors open for him to access the rooms.
By the end, we can save the map by giving it a name (up to 4 maps can be saved) and edit room names and layout if necessary. The map can be viewed in 2D or 3D.
How the Roborock S7 Pro Ultra works

Triple base for emptying, washing and filling
This is a robot packed with very interesting features, but we will start with what probably differentiates it the most from other models on the market, the Emptying, Washing and Filling Base.
This innovation, presented by Roborock in its top of the range, the S7 MaxV Ultra, is incorporated into this model, offering maximum comfort in use.

Its laser-based PreciSense LIDAR technology constantly scans rooms and maps with extraordinary precision, allowing the robot to know the home perfectly and move in an orderly, thorough and efficient manner, navigating in straight lines and moving very quickly.
Laser technology also allows predictive navigation (having several meters of range, the robot anticipates obstacles before reaching them) and can move in dark conditions.

Brushes
Like other models with advanced navigation, the Roborock S7 Pro Ultra only includes a side brush; This is because the robot always knows where it is, where it has passed and where it has not, and how it is oriented, so it does not need to have two like other less sophisticated devices.
In this case The side brush is made of five silicone arms. (instead of the usual three arms of bristles), achieving high effectiveness in corners and corners, and good durability.
