Compare Roborock S5 Max and S5
Roborock S5 Max and Roborock S5 robot vacuums have similar functions but differ in some characteristics. The S5 Max has a larger water tank (0.29 liters compared to 0.15 liters in the S5), which allows it to perform wet cleaning for longer. Both devices have a suction power of 2000 Pa and support app management; however, the S5 Max offers more advanced cleaning zone settings and the ability to work with voice assistants. Users note that the S5 Max performs better at cleaning due to more accurate navigation and the ability to create room maps. Nevertheless, the S5 also receives positive feedback for its cleaning quality and ease of use, although it sometimes encounters problems with zonal cleaning. Overall, the S5 Max is considered a more advanced model, especially for larger spaces and complex cleaning conditions.

Glossary
Water supply adjustment
A function that allows you to adjust the amount of liquid supplied to the robot vacuum cleaner’s pad, mops, or cleaning roller. A low level is suitable for laminate and parquet flooring, while a more intensive level is ideal for tiles and areas with noticeable dirt. Water flow adjustment helps prevent excessive floor wetting while improving wet cleaning efficiency.
Dust container capacity
The dustbin capacity indicates how much dry debris fits in the robot vacuum’s built-in container before it needs to be emptied. Models with a 200–300 ml capacity are suitable for a small apartment and frequent cleaning cycles, while a 400–600 ml capacity is more convenient for larger areas, pets, or lots of hair. For robots with a self-emptying station, the size of the internal container is less important, as debris is automatically transferred to the docking station’s collection bin.
Water tank capacity
The tank capacity determines the water supply for moistening the pad, rotating mops, or cleaning roller. Compact tanks of around 200 ml are suitable for regular wiping of small areas, while 300–500 ml tanks allow fewer interruptions for refilling during cleaning.
Power auto-adjustment
A function that automatically adjusts suction power based on the type of surface or the amount of detected debris. On carpets or heavily soiled areas, the robot increases power, while on smooth floors it reduces it to save battery life and reduce noise. Automatic power adjustment helps maintain cleaning quality without constantly selecting the mode manually.
Operating time
Battery life determines how much area the robot vacuum can clean before returning to the docking station. Actual performance depends on the selected mode, suction power, floor type, operation of the mops or roller, and layout complexity. Therefore, the stated maximum time is usually achieved in a gentle mode and will be noticeably shorter during intensive cleaning.
Charging time
Full charging cycle of the robot vacuum to restore the battery from the minimum level to 100%. The process usually takes several hours and depends on the battery capacity and charging system power. However, with regular returns to the base, this parameter rarely affects cleaning convenience.
Noise level
The dB rating helps assess how noticeable the robot vacuum will be during cleaning. A level of 55–60 dB is typical of quiet robots, 60–70 dB is considered standard, and values above 70 dB are typical of the most powerful modes. The lower the rating, the less the device interferes with conversations, rest, or work.
