The Best Robot Vacuum Cleaner

Robot vacuums can make the task of vacuuming a little less painful. Modern models can mop, and climb (small) steps.

They have a small trash bin which they empty themselves and some are controlled by smartphone apps instead of an actual remote. Some models have mapping capabilities to aid in navigating your home with greater efficiency.

1. Power

Our top pick for robot vacuums has a suction power of 8,000Pa, which is powerful enough to remove even the most stubborn hairs and dirt. Its ultra-thin square shape allows it to slide under furniture such as couches and beds. Dual-Laser LIDAR technology allows for accurate obstacle avoidance and intelligent navigation. It's also great at cleaning baking powder, pet hair and other messes around corners and baseboards.

Apart from the DEEBOT X2 OMNI bot, other powerful bots in this list include the iRobot Roomba J7+ and the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra. The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra includes docking station that automatically performs maintenance. It also comes with mopping capabilities. Its powerful suction and efficient mopping made sure my floors were free of pet hair as well as muddy paw prints and other debris in every floor type test that we conducted.

In the lower price range, a model with around 2,500Pa of suction is more than adequate for the majority of homes. These units are quieter and are therefore a better choice for those who have sensitive ears. They're still not quiet, but they're not as loud as a normal conversation at home.

For the best mix of performance and convenience Consider your cleaning requirements and budget. For regular light-duty cleaning you will require a longer time-to-run and less suction is needed. Weekly heavy-duty cleaning requires the maximum power. Assess your flooring, home layout and cleaning schedules prior to selecting the best model. We suggest looking through our full list of robot vacuum reviews [Suggested Studying] and ratings to get more details about the latest models available. Many customers report that their carpets and floors look cleaner after using a robot autonomous vacuum.

2. Navigation

A robot vacuum won't be able to do its job well without knowing how to get around your home. For this reason, the best robots use advanced navigation technology that effectively scans rooms and builds maps to ensure thorough cleaning without getting lost or hitting obstacles. There are three types of robot navigation including LiDAR, camera, and sensor.

LiDAR is utilized by the most expensive models to create a virtual room map, which provides the highest levels of accuracy and efficiency. Bump sensors are employed in lower-end models, however they can be inaccurate and miss a lot debris when working in dark places. The majority of robots have cliff sensors that keep them from falling off stairs or other drops.

A number of the robots I tested utilized objects recognition to navigate through things like cords and fake dog turds. However, the Eufy X10 was the best. It was equipped with powerful oscillating mop heads as well as a user-friendly application and a superb mapping capability.

Take into consideration features such as sensors for floors that automatically boost suction power when required. Certain robots such as the Roborock mop utilize mopping pad that lifts to reach into corners and clean dried spills. Many hybrids can apply cleaning solution to stubborn stains.

A smaller bin will mean less frequent emptying while a bigger one can save you money on replacements. The majority of low-cost robotic cleaners utilize the smallest disposable dust bag. However, the majority of mid-range models have larger 3L dustbins which last a long time. Certain premium robots such as the ECOVACS DEEBOT OMNI Station are able to self-empty and fill up their water tank for hands-free convenience.

3. App control

The top robot vacuums have an app that allows you to monitor cleaning progress and schedule sessions and connect to your smart home devices for hands-free control. Many also sync with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant for voice-based control. Some have a remote control that allows you to start the process, pause it and then return to dock. Pick a model that comes with a larger dustbin and can self-empty, rather than one that requires manual emptying.

Some robots are equipped with mapping technology that can help them remember obstacles, such as staircases, and prevents them from running into furniture. Some allow you to designate no-go zones and targeted rooms, so they only clean the areas that need it most. They also have cliff sensors to stop them from falling down the stairs, which is particularly helpful in multi-level homes.

If you want to utilize your robot vacuum for cleaning rug carpets, you should choose a model which can be used for dry and wet mopping. You'll get better results from an vac that is able to remove its own mop pad as well, which you can then rinse and reattach when it's time for another cleaning cycle. Look for a robot with the rubber roller. It is less likely to tangle from pet hair or other particles. Examine the robot's side brushes and brushroll for any debris that has become stuck on. Make sure to do this at least twice a week. If you notice they are starting to clog up it might be time to replace parts.

4. Collection of debris

Robot vacuums are designed according to the name to collect dust and debris from your floors. The most effective robot vacuum with mop vacuums are able to collect small particles such as baking soda and sand and larger ones like screws made of metal, orzo, and pet hair. They also provide better results on low pile carpets than many manual vacuums.

In all flooring types, the top-performing robots had pickup scores of more than 95 95%. The ECOVACS DEEBOT X2 OMNI and the Roborock Q Revo were two of our best-performing bots in this category. Both are highly automated, with docking stations that can do maintenance on their own and apps that make them extremely user-friendly.

Both have self-emptying bins which automatically remove the contents of the wastebasket. They can also clean the washboard while they mow. They also come with an 8,000Pa vacuum, intelligent mapping technology, and advanced obstacle avoidance that helps them navigate through even the most difficult spaces. The ECOVACS robot is one of the few that can clean carpet and take away mop pads. This makes it a great option for people who need to switch between mopping and vacuuming often.

If you want a cheaper option, we recommend the iRobot Roomba Kombo J7+, our budget pick. It comes with LIDAR navigation and decent debris pickup capabilities for the price. It is slow in mapping rooms and is susceptible to bumping against obstacles, but the cost is less than the other choices.

5. Battery life

The best robot vacuums are made to let you move to work while they keep your floors looking spick and clean. While you'll still need to give your home a manual vacuum every now and again, robovacs can help you maintain a standard of tidiness and even clean while you're away from home.

To maximize the time you can get out of your robovac, look for a model with excellent battery life. A good rule of thumb is to anticipate a model to last about two full cleaning sessions if you run it at the maximum power setting. This is less than a larger automatic vacuum cleaner and mop however, it should be enough to get the job done in most homes. If you don't wish to wait while your robovac recharges you can select an option that will automatically return to the base station to charge.

If you're looking for a robovac with a variety of features in it, then consider an option that also mop. Eufy's X10 is the most effective model in this class and includes self-emptying, self-draining and self-refilling of your dust bin and mop pad. It can also be programmed to automatically re-fill and wash its own mops when they're running low.

Its dependable carpet and hard floor pick up excellent hair pickup, tangle avoidance, and an almost perfect auto empty score make it the clear winner of our test scores. However, it's not cheap and unless you have a the smallest of homes with no pets it might be too expensive for some. The second-placed model one, the Dreametech D10+, has very similar performance but costs about 25% less.
