Our Verdict
Wyze Robot Vacuum
Roborock Q5/Q5+
The Wyze Robot Vacuum and the Roborock Q5+ each have advantages. The Roborock can be bundled with a self-emptying dock, potentially reducing hands-on maintenance requirements. It also has a longer battery life than the Wyze, and you can use its companion app to direct it manually if you get stuck. However, the Wyze feels better built, does a much better job of sealing in allergens, and takes less time to recharge.
