You asked about a robot vacuum for floorboards with 2 kids
Roborock Q7B+ robot vacuum and mop with auto-empty dock (RR-Q7BP52-03-BLK), but not yet
Wait until 27 Nov 2026
Black Friday is on 27 November 2026. Robot vacuums are often cut in these sales. Some shops have started their deals already.
Editorial timing, dated. We don't run price alerts.
Roborock Q7B+ robot vacuum and mop with auto-empty dock (RR-Q7BP52-03-BLK)
- Yes, it is worth it, but wait for Black Friday on 27 November 2026.
- On floorboards, a robot that maps rooms with a laser gets crumbs everywhere.
- The dock holds up to 7 weeks of dust, and the robot also mops.
Also fine: Shark PowerPro Cordless Vacuum IZ373HANZ if your floors are rarely clear of toys, socks and Lego.
The unpaid alternative
Use the broom or vacuum you own for 10 minutes after dinner. Give each kid one room to sweep. A robot only works if the floor is clear each day. Try that habit for 2 weeks first.
No commission on this line. It stays on every verdict.
How we decided
We looked at what floorboards and young kids ask of a robot: daily crumbs and low effort. We chose a low-cost Roborock with laser mapping, a mop and a self-emptying dock. On 13 November 2026 we checked that the Roborock Q7B+ is on sale new in Australia, with its price, at JB Hi-Fi, The Good Guys and Roborock's Australian store. The Q8 Max+ in the draft is no longer listed as a robot by those shops, so we swapped in the current model. We also checked the Shark PowerPro at The Good Guys and the Black Friday date.
In Australian shops: $300 to $400 when we checked. This is not Amazon's price. Prices move, so check before you buy.
