Roborock Q5 vs Roomba 694: Roborock Q5 wins for pet hair on laminate

The Roborock Q5 has 2700Pa suction vs 900Pa on the Roomba, plus a rubber brush that resists tangling and LiDAR navigation for row-by-row cleaning. The Roomba 694 is an older budget model that struggles with pet hair — it wraps around the brushes and scatters hair on hard floors. For pet hair specifically, the Q5 is the clear choice.
