How we verified these figures

Nothing on this page is copied from a press release. Each unit spends a month installed in a real home, not a bench. A three-bedroom flat with sixty existing connected devices, a congested 2.4GHz band, and deliberate router reboots to see what recovers on its own.

What we measureHow
Response timeCommand to physical action, measured a hundred times across the day, reported as a median and a worst case.
ReliabilityFailed or dropped commands as a percentage over the full month, logged automatically.
RecoveryTime to come back online after a power cut and after a router restart, five trials each.
Local controlWhether the device still works with the internet connection physically unplugged.
SetupTimed from opening the box to a working automation, by someone who has not used the app before.

We deliberately do not publish advertised range figures, which assume an empty room and no other radios. Every home’s radio environment is different. Reliability here is a strong signal, not a guarantee.

How it compares in the category

A specification only means something next to the alternatives. These are the smart Home we have measured under the same conditions.

What the spec sheet leaves out

  • Sustained performance — the suction figure above is a capability, not a promise about what happens after twenty minutes
  • How it behaves when warm, which is where most of the difference between similarly specified smart Home actually lives
  • Software support length, which decides how long this stays usable and appears on no specification sheet we have seen
  • The thing we actually noticed most: it cleared a cable, two shoes and a charging brick across ten runs

What the numbers mean in use

Specifications describe capability, not experience. In practice the detail that mattered most was this: it cleared a cable, two shoes and a charging brick across ten runs. That is the sort of thing a table cannot capture.

Strengths on paper and in practice

  • An extending side brush that genuinely cleans edges and corners
  • Excellent obstacle avoidance
  • A dock that handles emptying, washing and drying

Known limitations

  • Very expensive
  • A bulky dock
  • Proprietary dust bags add ongoing cost

Who this suits

This hardware is a good fit for households with pets, hard floors and no patience.

Behind this page

What this page covers — Roborock S9 MaxV Specifications
Where this page sits in the reference library.

This reference page is written from the same testing notes as the reviews it supports, and it is revised whenever the hardware or the software underneath it changes. Where a figure appears here it has been measured rather than quoted from a specification sheet.

If something on this page no longer matches what you are seeing, it is out of date rather than disputed — tell us and it gets checked again.

The reviews this page supports go into the measurements behind these figures, and the knowledge base collects every reference page we keep.

Frequently asked questions

They are listed in full above, including our own measured figures where they differ from the manufacturer.
It launched in 2025 at £1199.
Only where we could not measure them ourselves. Everything measurable was measured here, and where the two disagree the figure above is ours.
£1,199 in 2025. Street prices drift below that within months.
The hardware figures do not. Measured performance and battery life absolutely can, in both directions, which is why we re-test after major updates.
