The Best Robot Vacuum Cleaner

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

They have a small dustbin that they empty themselves and some of them can be controlled by smartphone apps instead of the physical remote. Some of them have mapping capabilities that aid in navigating your home with greater efficiency.

1. Power

With 8,000Pa of suction power, our top pick for robot vacuums is powerful enough to take care of the most difficult hairs and dirt. Its super-thin square design allows it to slide underneath furniture like sofas and beds and its Dual-Laser LIDAR technology provides precise navigation and obstacle avoidance. It's also great for cleaning pet hair, baking powder 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 stations that automatically handles maintenance. It also has mopping capabilities. Its powerful suction, coupled with its efficient mopping, kept my floors clean of pet hair, muddy prints and other messes on all floors we tested.

In the lower price range, a model with around 2,500Pa of suction is sufficient for most homes. They are also quieter and therefore a better option for those who have sensitive ears. These units are not silent however they are not the same volume as conversations at home.

To get the most effective mix of power and usability Consider your cleaning requirements and budget. Frequent light-duty tidying requires a longer time to run and lower suction, while weekly heavy-duty cleaning demands maximum power. Check your flooring, home layout, and cleaning schedules before choosing the right model. We suggest looking through our full list of robot vacuum reviews and ratings to get more details about the latest models available. Many customers report seeing their carpets and bare floors appear cleaner after introducing a robot vacuum to their home.

2. Navigation

A robot vacuum won't be able to do its job well if it doesn't know how to navigate your home. The best robots use sophisticated navigation technologies to scan rooms and create an outline map, which allows for thorough cleaning without getting stuck or hitting obstacles. There are three types of robot navigation including LiDAR, robotic cleaner and mop 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 used in less expensive models, but they aren't always accurate and miss a lot debris when working in dark areas. The majority of robots have cliff sensors to stop them from falling down stairs or other drops.

Many of the robots I tested employed object recognition to skillfully navigate around things such as fake cords and dog turds but the most effective was the Eufy X10. It had powerful mop heads that oscillate, a user friendly app, and superb mapping capabilities.

Think about features like sensors for floors that automatically boost suction power when needed. Certain robots such as the Roborock mop make use of mopping pad lift that allows you to get into corners and clean dried spills. Many hybrids are able to apply cleaning solutions to stubborn stains.

A smaller bin means less frequent emptying, however, a larger one can save you money on replacements. The majority of low-cost robotic cleaner and mop cleaners utilize a small, disposable dust bag. However, the majority of mid-range models come with larger dustbins of 3L that last for a long time. Certain high-end robots, such as the EcoVACS DEEBOT OMNI Station can self-empty and refill their water tanks for hands-free convenience.

3. App control

The majority of robot vacuums have an app that can monitor cleaning progress, schedule sessions and connect to smart home devices. Many robot vacuums can be controlled by voice using Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. Some have a remote control that lets you start the process, pause it and then return to dock. Choose a model that has a bigger dustbin that can self-empty, as opposed to one that requires manual emptying.

Some robovacs come with mapping technology that can help them recognize obstacles, such as stairs, and avoid hitting furniture. Certain robovacs let you define no-go zones and rooms to clean those areas which need it the most. They also have cliff sensors to stop them from falling down stairs, which is particularly beneficial in multi-level homes.

If you intend to use your robot vacuum with mop vacuum to clean rugs, choose a model which can be used both for wet and dry mopping. You'll be able to get better cleaning results if your robot vacuum can remove its mop pad. Clean it and reconnect it when you want to run another cleaning cycle. Also look for a robot that has a rubber roll that is less susceptible to knots caused by pet hair and other debris than bristle rollers that is found on less expensive models. It's a good idea to check the robot's brushroll and side brushes for stuck-on debris once or twice a week Also. If you notice that they are starting to clog up it could be time to purchase replacement parts.

4. Collection of debris

As the name implies robot vacuums are made to collect dust and other debris from your floors. The best ones pick small particles such as baking soda and sand as larger pieces such as metal screws, orzo pasta and pet hair. They also have better pickup results on carpets with low pile than most manual vacuums.

All flooring types are covered, and the top robots had pickup scores of greater than 95%. The ECOVACS DEEBOT X2 OMNI and the Roborock Q Revo were the two top-performing robots in this category. Both are highly automated with robust docking stations that do maintenance on their own and app features that make them extremely user-friendly.

They both have self-emptying bins that automatically empty the wastebasket. They can also clean the washboard as they mowing. They also have an 8,000Pa vacuum cleaner, smart mapping technology and advanced obstacle avoidance to help them navigate even the most difficult areas. The ECOVACS model is also one of the few robots that we tested that can take its mop pads and vacuum carpet, which makes it the best option for those who need to switch between mopping and vacuuming regularly.

If you want a cheaper option, we suggest the iRobot Roomba Combo J7+, our budget choice. It comes with LIDAR navigation for a reasonable price and a decent debris collection performance. It's not the fastest to map rooms and may be susceptible to crashing into obstacles, however, it's cheaper than our other top choices.

5. Battery life

The top robot vacuums are designed to let you go on with your life while keeping your floors clean and spick and clean. It is still necessary to manually vacuum your home on a regular basis however, robovacs can aid in maintaining a certain standard of cleanliness, and even clean when you are away.

Look for a robovac with long-lasting batteries to get the most out of it. If you select the highest power setting, the model should last about two cleaning sessions. This is not as long as a full-sized vacuum cleaner, but it is enough to cover most homes. If you don't want to wait around while your robovac charges, you can also opt for an automatic model that makes its way back to its base station to recharge.

If you're looking for a robovac with a variety of features in it, then think about one that is able to mop. Eufy's X10 is the top model of this category, offers self-emptying and self-refilling for the dust bin as well as the water tank and mop pad. It is also programmable to automatically refill and wash mops when they're low.

Its dependable carpet and hard floor pickup excellent hair pickup, tangle-free, and a an almost perfect auto empty score makes it the clear winner of our test scores. However, it's not cheap and unless you have a an apartment without pets, it may be too pricey for some. The second-placed model one, the Dreametech D10+, has the same performance, but costs about 25 percent less.
