I found this quiz on the Roborock web site to determine which Roborock is right for you https://us.roborock.com/pages/help-me-choose I didn't see this before I bought the S7, but the recommendation was for the S5.
Here's a link comparing one of the Q series to one of the S series. It seems like the big difference is that the S series will mop while the Q series won't. https://faceithard.com/roborock-q5plus-vs-s7plus/#:~:text=Roborock%20Q5%2B%20and%20Roborock%20S7%2B%20are%20nearly%20on,distinction%20unless%20you%20are%20in%20a%20large-sized%20house. -- Christopher (AKA CJ) Chaltain at Outlook -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Kay Malmquist Sent: Monday, July 18, 2022 6:33 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: does the roomba detect stairs?

The major differences are that the S7 has LiDAR and better mapping and navigation support. The E5 has a camera and navigates by inertia. The S7 app also gives you access to more features, like changing the suction power. The E5 has some advantages, like a larger dustbin and it comes with a remote. One thing my sighted wife and I did with the S7 last night was that I told her when the S7 ran during the day, I'm not sure it covered our family room / kitchen area. My wife was able to see from the map that for some reason it did skip this room. She was able to pull up the map of our downstairs and label each room. She also noticed that the S7 considered our entry way, dining room and family room as all one room. My wife was able to draw a boundary between the dining room and the family room and give them different labels. We were then able to send the S7 to clean just the family room / kitchen. I haven't done this yet, but I'm sure I can add Siri shortcuts to give the S7 commands to clean specific rooms. Here's a good review of the differences between the E5 and the S5. The S5 isn't the same as the S7, but this article will give you a good understanding of the differences between the E series and the S series. https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Frobotbox.net%2Froborock-e5-vs-s5-max%2F&data=05%7C01%7C%7Cb599945ce50e43985d9c08da69154f24%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637937837515346275%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=mGGe0ot3pE5DZ3Y9P3wtbwGjfEGD%2BvWLnMCKCQB3g3Q%3D&reserved=0 -- Christopher (AKA CJ) Chaltain at Outlook -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Kay Malmquist Sent: Monday, July 18, 2022 9:46 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: does the roomba detect stairs? I know I should probably look myself, but if someone could tell me what the difference is between this and the S series? I'm thinking I'd rather spend the money on all or most of the bells and whistles and don't want to be unhappy if I buy a less expensive model that doesn't have what I need.
