I've just bought one from the deal about 3-4 days ago, going by other people's comments it's usual around the 2week Mark. So I'm not panicing yet.

I'm in the same boat
using my tracking as a reference, probably get it tomorrow and the next day.
mine dated 16th of July and I received it today, and I am in WA which generally takes longer.
@raybies: Just checked the tracking mine arrived in Port Mel today after being dispatched on the 16th but ordered the 30th of last month
@DoesntEvenMatter: Finally arrived… I think it actually got to Aus on the 22nd but Toll just sat on it.
Toll tracking number…
Unable to deliver
Delivery not accepted - items missing from delivery
We are unable to deliver your item until we have all items together. we will attempt delivery once all items are available alternatively, you can contact our customer service team for assistance.
There was just 1 item.
@raybies: Bahaha mine arrived on Monday from a 17th dispatch. Yeh only 1 item with mine too. A box within a box. Have it connected to my smart plug to control charging times just so I can control over charging but from looking at the power input stats I think it does it on its own. I'm very happy with it
@DoesntEvenMatter: There maybe an API you can interface w/ Hass.io/OpenHab/Hubitat so that it disconnects when it reaches a charge level? Also w/ my S4 and S5 if it's disconnected from power for a couple hours it turns off, but turns on again with power reconnect.
Just checked: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/xiaomi-vacuum-details-…
{{ states.vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner.attributes.battery_level }}
Mine's already done a clean WITHOUT getting stuck, like my S4.
@raybies: All ready have all of that setup too. It's not needed it's has its own power management it seems
I purchased this from Toby Deals a few days ago as well (slightly cheaper) to replace my original Roborock that has served me well, they've sent a tracking number and it's shipped from Hong Kong already, very quick.
How much did you pay?
@Tex Texan: Ahhh same price here if you actually read the description the winter code is mentioned and it's their websites banner
@DoesntEvenMatter: Ah,so it is, seeing the code is still valid the deal should probably be marked as $577 or just re-open the previous deal :-)
@Tex Texan: Advantage of the new deal vs opening previous is people may have dismissed the last deal as expired and not bothered going back to it - I know I did, and have bought one from this deal.
any negatives over buying the one from roborock aus? still have all the same functions etc?
I believe you won't have local supplier warrenty as it's a grey market product.
i dont think they are in Australia i made same mistake no idea where my items are
Hong Kong. Pretty obvious they arnt Australian
I thought all deals here from Australian sellers :(
@Brisbane1: Nope. If there's a (HK, US, UK, xx), grey or international mentioned it is not. Also if the url doesn't end in a ".au"
Any info on whats the warranty on these through the seller.
Return to Hong Kong at your expense but you have zero ACL so count warranty at Zero with a significant saving compared to roborock Australia anyway
Use pay pal to pay so if you have to send it back, at least some are covered by Paypal.
difference on warranty is almost $300, i want to buy one just cant decide. Price on Toby's deal is tempting, but dont want to end up with a paperweight if it stops working
I'm in the same dilemma, it's around 150% of the cost for warranty and to support a local business. I've been bitten bad by all overseas warranty so it's something I'm really unsure about risking. When I compare it to a the aus model is still cheap, but the aus model only has a warranty for a year anyway.
What spares have you guys bought from aliexpress?
I got some dust and water filters, extra mop pads, and a few assorted brushes.
I couldn't find the castor wheel alone, so if anyone fines somewhere I can buy just the castors please let me know.
Is that the same wheel for an s5 max
Anyone know if this model has multiple floor options? We have a step in the middle of the house… so needs 2x maps.
Yes this one has that option
Edit - comment deleted
How wet is the mopping function ? Need for laminate flooring and wondering if it would damage it .
You can choose the level of water used between low/med/high so I'd say it should be suitable.
Perfect. Thanks
@Admin - can you please update the deal
There is a better coupon bringing the price down to $571
Please use the code "CART3"
Mine just arrived today, bought it a week ago from teco buy for 617. Suprisingly quick as i am located in wa.
Tracking upto date and correct or deylaed?
The tracking does not give you much information, it gets updated sporadically.
however the tracking can be summarized as below:
Collection: 15 July 2020 - Hongkong
In transit to destination: 16 July 2020 - Hongkong
Arrived Hub:20 July 2020 - Perth- Australia
It takes 4 days including weekend
Yeh seems like it. I didnt even get the last update till 2 days later on all trackers. Apparently coming with toll
Linehaul to destination depot: overnight16 Jul 2020 07:06 PM
Wow, you’re lucky.
I am still awaiting mine.
Can you please share your review if initial vac and mop use?
Best to go local. TobyDeals isn't that great of a company. After purchase support is non-existent.
I know I'm going to regret this…
Toby Deals gave me the run-around last time with this product, however they DID happily issue a refund after they still couldn't dispatch the order after a whole month. I was pretty down on them after that, but I'm desperate to get this model at a good price, and now I know that they're happy to issue a refund if anything else happens with the order (or at the very least, Paypal will as a last resort).
Hesitant due to some comments about TodyDeals, but I Ordered with insured shipping, will update when I receive product.
purchase with paypal
I did, still no tracking but I did get the 'picked' email.
Got mine today. This thing is better then expected. Mapping out the house still, it's upto 90m2 with still half the house to go 78min in
Ordered on 22nd July. received it today
Shipped by DPEX - Toll
That's quicker then a local purchase lol
yeah exactly..
Bought one. Actually a really cheap price. Fingers crossed this works well and gets delivered.
Cheers OP
I'm also tempted like many others in this thread… leaning towards going local for the warranty directly through Roborock but am just hoping for a price drop.
$200-300 is a huge difference. way i saw it, you get 6 months warranty (kinda) with paypal so just did that with buyer protection. You're only losing 6 months i think, doubt its two years
Just bit the bullet … wish me luck!
Just got mine delivered today from a purchase about 2 weeks ago.
Please share with this your review of the first few uses of vac and mop use
Purchased one in 25-Jul and received an email in 27-Jul stating picked up and left warehouse. No tracking number is shared yet.
Mine arrived today. Yay.
Saw the black clour, but EU version. Except plug, anyone knows the difference? Thanks
pretty sure it's just colour difference
No the EU is actually packaged for Europe shipped to Switzerland or Amsterdam I think it was and come out English. The local market ones are factory Chinese out of the box. Hardware wise there all the same except for the plug which is a basic iec-7
Thanks, so the EU one should be fine to be used here then? Voltage wise should be alright too? Thanks very much
@Bargain-er: Roborock app yes fully compatible but using mi home it just won't work on the mainland China server from what I've come across. Fine on Australia
Ordered on 20 July 2020, arrived today 2 Aug 2020 with standard shipping - DHL, very good deal, thanks OP
"We are sorry, but the page you are looking for cannot be found."
No results when I search for that…
It's a couple of weeks old. Tobydeals usually has a time limit on it.
But this is a regular deal they run from time to time.
There is a new deal even cheaper now: https://www.tobydealsau.com/en_AU/product/rliua0ycpsc1jourgs… . The price is AUD$551.93 after applied CART3 code. But it is strange it could be not found by site search. I found it by Google search. Anyway I booked one and the order is packing now.
Did everyone get their orders?
Still waiting for mine…
When did you buy $300 differ with oz stock
Ordered on 21st July
Did anyone who ordered receive theirs without ever getting a tracking number?
