The Roborock Qrevo Curv Has An Innovative Solution For Your Home's Pet Hair Problem

If there are two factors that render even the most advanced robot floor cleaners obsolete, it's your long-haired cat's tufts of errant fur and the myriad of surfaces employed in today's homes. Thankfully IFA 2024 showcased a variety of standout products that take home cleaning technology to the next level, and Roborock's Qrevo Curv ($1599.99) introduced the perfect solution to what had previously been an achilles heel for robot cleaners, winning it a House Digest IFA Innovation Award in the process.

This groundbreaking appliance innovates the way you clean your floors by avoiding hair tangles that would sideline comparable products and seamlessly adapting to a wide variety of floor types without skipping a beat. If you've been waiting for an appliance that can surpass the standard builds, this award-winning cleaner is sure to become your floor's most valued asset.

One of the biggest drawbacks of any vacuum, but especially robot-style products, is their tendency to pull up hair that then gets tangled in the brushes. This can lead to malfunctions and breakdowns, not to mention expensive repairs. Luckily, the Roborock Qrevo Curv was built with pet and human hair in mind. The Dual Anti-Tangle System helps both the side and main brushes sweep up all kinds of hair without letting it get tangled in the bristles. With a DuoDivide Brush that is fitted with two bristle rollers which sit parallel to one another, hair is guided and pulled to a central dustbin. The machine's suction system then removes hair from the bristles, leaving them free and clean to pick up dirt, particles, dander, and of course ... more hair.

Working in tandem with the DuoDivide Brush, the FlexiArm Arc Side Brush is an asymmetric brush which was built to arc out from the machine, creating a centrifugal force that keeps hair strands from getting knotted or tangled as they are swept up. This piece acts as a guide for loose hairs, bringing them to the bristles so everything is efficiently pulled into the dustbin inlet for hassle-free cleaning. While other robot cleaners have aimed to eliminate the pet hair problem, few if any showcase the technology or innovation that the Qrevo Curv put on display at IFA 2024.

While the Anti-Tangle system alone would give this product an edge over many robot floor cleaners, the industry-first AdaptiLift Chassis creates a truly unique feature that makes cleaning your entire home an effortless endeavor. The chassis can be elevated to traverse various floor types, transitioning seamlessly across your tile, vinyl, wood, or carpet. The independently adjustable controls allow each of the three wheels to lift in the front, rear, right, or left — the entire appliance can even be lifted by 10mm. This makes it effortless to navigate homes with transitional areas like threshold molding and transition strips, not to mention various types of rugs, carpets, and hard flooring.

Following your traditional robot vacuum around to ensure it clears different varieties of floors can mean you're doing almost as much work as you would with a handheld option, but the Roborock Qrevo Curv has a 4-centimeter threshold crossing maximum thanks to its omni-wheel. If your home features either standard- or double-layer thresholds, this vacuum traverses these with ease, surpassing industry standards when it comes to various surface height transitions. The AdaptiLift Chassis also ensures the unit can still penetrate mid- to long-pile carpeting, pulling up dirt and grime from between the fibers without clogging or getting stuck.

These aforementioned specifications certainly set this particular product apart from the rest, but there's even more to enjoy from the Roborock Qrevo Curv. For instance, its 18,500 Pa HyperForce Suction allows the bristle brush to clean and remove hard-to-reach dirt in the tightest spots, like flooring gaps and thick carpeting. Additionally, although you should generally never use a vacuum to clean sticky surfaces, you won't have to worry about that with this product's unique mopping system, which features dual mops that apply pressure and humidity to dirty surfaces in consistent patterns, helping to loosen dirt before removing it altogether. And thanks to the extremely high temperature of the hot water the device produces, the mops themselves are sanitized as they clean, so rather than spreading germs and dirt, you're getting rid of them at the source and on the appliance while the FlexiArm Mop grabs buildup from corners and edges of the room to provide a thorough clean.

It would be enough for these beneficial features and award-winning tech to ensure your floors are perfectly clean, but the design of the Roborock Qrevo Curv and its home station is also worth mentioning. Sleek and rounded, the dock is understated and pristine, not to mention the appliance's Zero-Touch Cleanliness setting, which uses hot water along with rotating scrapers to clean the base. This means you can worry less about maintaining your unit, and focus on the benefits it brings to your home instead.

The dock also has a drying feature that blasts the unit with 110-degree Fahrenheit air to keep both the brushes and mops from retaining moisture that could grow mold or mildew. Voice automated settings allow you to say "Hello Rocky" to get your cleaning started, and the RGB camera and structured light help the unit navigate your layout and avoid up to 62 objects in light and dark rooms. You can even call and talk to pets from the video and two-way talk feature, allowing the robot to act as a security or pet camera as well as a fully functional cleaning system. The mop noise levels are low for pet comfort at 55dB, plus the robot can stop the primary brush when it registers an animal in the way to avoid upsetting or scaring your pets. 

More smart functions include the Apple Watch App and Launcher Widgets, allowing you to personalize your cleaning routines. Ease, convenience, design, and a long list of smart features makes the Roborock Qrevo Curve truly unique.
