Roborock Qrevo Curv 2 Flow.
20,000Pa suction, a 10.6-inch extending roller mop and a dock that washes in hot water and air-dries. Excellent at resisting hair tangles; mopping trails the category.
The Verdict.
Gavler Meta-Score
“Buy the Curv 2 Flow for its vacuuming, not its mop. Carpet pickup and hair resistance beat most robots near its price, and the dock does the dirty work. But the roller mop scored poorly on dried stains in lab tests, it's too tall for low furniture, and it struggles with door thresholds. At $999.99 list it's hard to pick over the X12 OmniCyclone; it makes more sense on one of its frequent sales.”

Precision Engineering
Extending Roller Mop
A 10.6-inch roller spins at 220 RPM with 15N of pressure, extends toward edges and lifts 15mm with a shield over carpet.
20,000Pa, Tangle-Free Brushes
Split counter-rotating brushes recorded 0% tangling in Vacuum Wars' hair test and 87% deep-carpet sand pickup.
Hot-Wash, Hot-Air-Dry Dock
Auto-empties into a bag, washes the roller in hot water and air-dries it; separate clean and dirty water tanks.
Technical Specifications
The Scoreboard
Four hands-on reviews: Tom's Guide (Matt Ng, Feb 2026; 89.5% cleaning score, praises the roller mop once water output is raised), Vacuum Wars (Feb 2026, updated Oct 2026; 3.65 stars, strong vacuuming and hair resistance, very weak stain mopping), Notebookcheck (Marcus Schwarten, Feb 2026, updated Oct 2026; solid vacuum, mopping below expectations) and Android Authority (positive for mostly hard-floor homes; edge cleaning inconsistent). Ranked below the budget picks with stronger value for its split verdict and $999.99 list price.
