The Roborock H7 was praised by testers for its easy maneuverability and its wide range of accessories.

Reviewers were also satisfied with its carpet and bare floor performance, but its low suction force and fragile build quality were not as impressive. They also noted that its dirt bin was hard to empty.

Product Snapshot

Overview

The Roborock H7 is a premium cordless handheld vacuum that was released into the market in 2021. It has a great run time of up to 91 minutes, and, weighing only 5.62 pounds, it gives some of the top vacuum cleaners a run for their money as far as portability is concerned.

With a noise output of only 70.2 decibels, the H7 is not as disruptive, and its pivoting floorhead makes it very easy to maneuver around obstacles.

Its 0.4-liter dirt compartment is slightly smaller than the 0.5-liter canister on the Samsung Bespoke Jet, but it is enough for small to medium size rooms.

It also has an anti-allergy HEPA filter that traps up to 99.99% of allergens. This filter is washable, so it doesn’t need to be replaced.

Consensus

our Verdict

The Roborock H7 had testers from Trusted Reviews pleased with its maneuverability. They could quickly move around and maneuver it during their tests thanks to its light 5.62-pound weight.

They also loved the impressive selection of magnetic accessories that it came with. Reviewers from Rtings also liked its performance on bare floors since it cleared 87% of small and 99% of large debris during their experiments.

They were also pleased with its 80% clearance of large debris on high pile carpets and its superb 100% pet hair clearance on both high and low-pile rugs.

These statistics make it a much better choice for carpet cleaning than the Roborock S4 Max.

However, testers weren’t very impressed with its low 0.39 kPa suction force, as this pales in comparison to the 10.43 kPa that the Ryobi 18 One+ 3 Gal Project Wet/Dry vacuum has to offer.

They also didn’t like its fragile build quality and didn’t appreciate that its dirt bin wasn’t easy to empty.

With a run time of up to 91 minutes, the Roborock H7 runs slightly longer than the Roborock H6 Adapt, which keeps going for up to 87.5 minutes. Also, the H7 only takes 181 minutes to recharge compared to the H6 Adapt, which takes up to 240 minutes, and the H7 also has a larger 0.4-liter dirt compartment compared to the H6 Adapt, which has a 0.25-liter dirt bin.

The Roborack H7 is no match for the Dyson V11 Animal since the V11 has better build quality. The V11 also has a higher suction power of up to 1.47 kPa compared to the Roborock H7, which manages 0.39 kPa at its highest setting. However, the H7 redeems itself with a longer 91-minute runtime compared to the V11’s 76-minute battery life and a shorter 181-minute charge time compared to the V11’s 240 minutes.

The Roborack H7 also outperformed the Dyson V8 since it offers a larger 0.4-liter dirt compartment compared to the V8’s 0.35-liter dirt bin and a longer 91-minute run time compared to the V8’s 41 minutes.
