Hi all,

I have been interested in a robot vac for a while now and I still have about 8-10 months left until I move into a double story house.

I can't actually wet my floors in the house so I am only after the vacuum side of them and not the mopping.

Based in Australia and my budget isn't too much of a factor as I don't mind scouring for sales for the 8-10 months, if anyone has any recommendations on the best robot vac purely for vacuuming that would be much appreciated, thanks!

Roborock looks great but is it usable offline or are you forced to export your home layout and unknown other data its collecting to china?

You can root it and run everything local.
