Roborock Qrevo CurvX Review
I’ve had robot helpers for nearly 20 years because they make my life easier which leaves me more time to create. Today, I’m making a Christmas garland while we set up and test out the Roborock Qrevo CurvX.

Why I Will Always Have a Robot Helper
Here at Ruffles and Rain Boots, you might not know it based on the state of my craft room after a days-long crafting bender, but I am “particular” about my home. At any given time, my dark hardwood floors are ready for filming.
I love dark, rich wood and take pride in keeping my floors well-maintained, but… it takes me about 4 hours to sweep, vacuum, and mop them all by hand!
To balance my need for cleanliness with living my actual life, it’s not feasible to manually clean them a couple of times a week. That means a combo vacuum and mopping machine will always be tucked away somewhere as my little robot helper.

Roborock Qrevo CurvX – Overall Recommendation
Roborock sent me one of their new, feature-heavy units to test and I’ve put the Roborock Qrevo CurvX through the ringer this past month. The tech in this slim-line robot features a lifting chassis, a retractable LiDAR unit, and the easiest (and most consistent) app I’ve ever used.
I’ll go more into features below, but I want to highlight a few here for the “just the facts, ma’am” readers:
- it is easy to set up, program, clean, and maintain
- the unit cleans under furniture none of my other robots have been able to
- the app is user-friendly but the robot can be used without it
- the Qrevo CurvX is very quiet, which usually comes at a much higher price point
- the edges and corner features leave me with less work and more time
- the robust power and dirt-sensing features really work to get things clean
- I would love to see it move to a bagless refuse bin
Do I recommend the machine? Yes. It’s a great machine that does exactly what it says it will do, has a low maintenance and use cost, and it has features that make sense and work without issue.
Watch My Review of the Qrevo CurvX (and See A Fun Garland Craft)
While I was waiting on my robot to map my house for the first time, I set up a Christmas garland craft. You can see the directions for the garland below and in my Roborock Qrevo CurvX review.
It’s a fun look at actually USING the machine and some tips from someone who has been using these helpers for a long time.
My Favorite Features
As someone who has made quite an investment in various robot helper brands, I’ve learned to distinguish between hype and value. Here are my top features that actually MEAN something to me.
- The slim design and retractable LiDAR is one of the nicest surprises I’ve had – it works and cleans under furniture that I’ve had to do manually until now.
- The dirt-detection feature easily wins over other some of my other units.
- I want to highlight the DuoDivide™ split brush mostly because I don’t have to cut out tangles of hair, string, or yarn from my craft room floor anymore.
- The extending brush and mopping pad have cleaned closer than any of my other units. Ever (even those with extendable features).
- Instructing the unit to vacuum any carpet first means I don’t have to worry about moisture. Even though the AdaptaLift chassis raises up the pads, this adds peace of mind.
What I Believe Could Be Improved
On behalf of the environment and my wallet, I dislike consumables. I will always opt for eco-friendly items I can wash or clean out so I am not replacing and contributing to waste.
I really want to see a bagless debris system. Because the unit is designed and engineered to be easily cleaned and maintained, I believe a washable dust and refuse bin would make the Roborock Qrevo CurvX even better.
Look At Your Options
Not only does the Roborock Qrevo CurvX have a common sense price, there are other options you have available to help bring this robot into your space.
First, check out the deals page on the Roborock homepage. It will highlight any promotion running and even give suggestions on alternate models so you can find the RIGHT robot for you.
There is also a trade in refund available for those of us who have other machines! It’s a straight-forward process and, in my opinion, is one of the reasons which demonstrates Roborock’s commitment to proving their machines are as good as they say.
How to Make a Dollar Tree Scandinavian Christmas Garland
Below are the supplies I used. As I showed in the video, adding some garland and berries to this would give it a warmer, more traditional feel. You will need:
- 2 packs Dollar Tree Christmas tree ornaments
- 2 packs Dollar Tree snowflake ornaments
- twine or suede cord
- 2 navel oranges, dried (or get these already dried orange slices)
- 3/4 inch and 1 inch wood beads
- needle (if using cord), glue gun, and scissors
First, pair up the ornaments so that you have a “pretty” side facing down. Create two stacks of the same shapes so you can pull and press.
Glue a 3/4 inch bead to the “ugly” side of the ornament (the inside) at the top, making sure the holes are aligned. Glue another 3/4 inch bead to the center bottom.
Once the beads are secured, glue on the “ugly” side of the matching ornament. Again, be certain to line up the holes on the top bead.
Thread a small piece (5-6 inches) of cord or twine through the hole at the top. Tie it into a knot so we can hang it on the garland. Trim any excess.
Cut a long piece of cord for your space (mine was 92 inches total – 80 inches for the window, plus 10 inches for spacing, and 2 inches for a loop at either end).
Assemble the garland how you would like. I chose to have the following pattern: a Christmas tree ornament, two one inch beads, an orange slice, two one inch beads, and a snowflake ornament. I repeated that pattern until all pieces were used.
After tying the ends, your Christmas garland is ready to hang!
