Third-party reviews

What customers like about Rowenta RR8477WH

  • Strong suction power of up to 2,300 Pa removes dust, pet hair and debris.
  • The integrated Aqua Force mopping system cleans floors while vacuuming.
  • Smart, precise navigation maps the home, avoids obstacles and provides systematic cleaning.
  • Slim design lets the robot pass easily beneath furniture and beds.
  • Simple, intuitive control through the dedicated smartphone app.

What customers don't like about Rowenta RR8477WH

  • It has difficulty with fringed rugs and can become trapped in them.
  • The mapping system can have problems with open outdoor areas and thresholds below 2 cm.
  • The water tank and mop cloths need regular maintenance, especially in large homes.
  • The brand’s customer service has occasionally been reported as slow to respond to faults.

Verdict

The Rowenta X-PLORER Serie 70 RR8477WH is an ultra-thin 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop featuring an exceptionally slim 7.8 cm profile, high-precision laser navigation for methodical mapping, and a suction power of up to 2300 Pa. It comes equipped with a 0.4-litre bagless dust container, a motorized turbobrush tailored for animal hair and allergies, and electronic water tank adjustment for its dual-action mopping system, all powered by a lithium-ion battery delivering up to 120 minutes of runtime. Key advantages include its ability to slide easily under low furniture, highly efficient virtual wall and multi-zone map customization via a dedicated smartphone app, and excellent stair-detection capabilities. However, users must manually empty its small dust container due to the lack of a self-emptying base station, and the device can struggle to relocate itself smoothly on carpets with long fringes.
