Third-party reviews

What customers like about Rowenta RR7987 X-Plorer Serie 95

  • Excellent suction removes dust and pet hair effectively.
  • Three interchangeable silicone, parquet, and turbo brushes suit different surfaces.
  • Intelligent navigation maps rooms precisely and supports multiple floors.
  • The feature-rich, easy app shows where the robot has cleaned.
  • Long battery life and good corner coverage.

What customers don't like about Rowenta RR7987 X-Plorer Serie 95

  • The basic mopping function delivers unexceptional results.
  • The relatively small 0.4-litre dust bin needs frequent emptying.
  • The robot sometimes strikes obstacles quite firmly.
  • It occasionally has difficulty finding the charging dock.
  • Users with large hands may find the dust drawer awkward to remove.
  • Connectivity is limited to 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi.

Verdict

The Rowenta RR7987 X-Plorer Serie 95 is a premium robot vacuum and mop featuring an exceptionally powerful BLDC motor delivering up to 12,000 Pa of suction across 4 power modes, a 120 to 225-minute runtime via its lithium-ion battery, and precise Smart Exploration laser navigation with multi-floor mapping capabilities. Main advantages include a comprehensive 4-in-1 cleaning setup with interchangeable specialized central brushes (Animal, Precision, and Downey Turbo), custom water-flow management for its smart mop system, and a dedicated mobile app with voice assistant support. However, minor drawbacks include a relatively compact 0.4L/0.5L onboard dust collector that requires frequent emptying, an intensive 'scrubbing' mode that exhausts the 150ml water tank rapidly, and a physical height of 10.3 cm that may limit clearance under exceptionally low-profile furniture.
