Robots have become popular for home cleaning, but upright vacuums still have their place.

However, they are limited to flat surfaces, which may make purchasing one unjustifiable.

The Roborock Dyad Pro is a unique wet and dry vacuum cleaner for flat surfaces.

All cameras and smart hub from Reolink that made it to works with home assist certified.

It offers 17000Pa of suction power, self-cleaning and drying, and easy-to-use app control.

The robot itself weighs 10lbs, which didn’t feel like a lot when using it.

It has dimensions of 12.2x10.6x43.7in, which is something of a large size.

You should fully charge the cleaner before first use.

My unit came with a 65% charge, so testing began quickly.

This was surprising when lifting it up, but it wasn’t a problem during use.

The weight distribution actually made it feel like a solid machine.

However, it took some getting used to when lifting it in and out of the charger.

The Dyad Pro has two water tanks: a 900ml clean tank and a 770ml dirty tank.

Both were easy to remove using their easy-to-find release buttons.

The machine also comes with a small cleaning solution dispenser that works with any detergent.

The dispenser automatically mixes the detergent with clean water while in use.

The Roborock Dyad Pro is a unique wet and dry vacuum cleaner for flat surfaces. It offers 17000Pa of suction power, self-cleaning and drying, and easy-to-use app control.

This sounds about right, although I didn’t actually test the machine for what amounts to 10 hours.

Put together, the three rollers promise (and delivered) edge-to-edge cleaning.

It’s another nice touch that’s missing on similar products.

Around the LED, you’ll find a digital indicator that displays the real-time dirt level.

The level changes between the color red and blue depending on how dirty the floor is.

Roborock’s Floor Drying Mode is designed to remove clean water from wet areas like bathrooms.

It is limited to one minute of use before it resumes AUTO mode.

The Dyad Pro also has three buttons at the top of the handle.

On the front side (and away from the user) are the power and change mode buttons.

The former can act as a power, off, and pause button.

The latter button is used to switch between AUTO, MAX, Floor Drying, and ECO modes.

Again, stick with AUTO and save yourself some headaches.

On the back of the handle is the self-cleaning button.

During self-cleaning, the rollers use alternating scrubbing and are then automatically dried.

The Dyad Pro’s self-cleaning feature worked as advertised, eliminating the need to manually clean the dirty rollers.

The Dyad Pro was no exception, as it was very loud during normal operation.

It’s important to note that the Dyad Pro is not suitable for use on carpets.

it’s possible for you to glance at the panel and quickly see all the available options and prefs.

The bottom line: the voice is simply unnecessary and terribly executed.

you could turn the voice volume down, however, to remove it.

You still need to add fresh water and (ugh) remove the dirty water regularly.

The dirty tank also consists of a plastic filter that must be cleaned.

(The machine comes with a maintenance brush for this purpose.)

Regardless, the Dyad Pro was easy to clean.

I’ll give Roborock points for offering app integration with the Dyad Pro.

However, how the machine must be operated severely limits its usefulness.

Should You Buy the Roborock Dyad Pro?

TheRoborock Dyad Prois a costly machine, which must be calculated into whether or not to purchase it.

Yes, it worked as expected and did a remarkable job of keeping flat surfaces clean.
