The Best Robot Vacuum Cleaner

Robot vacuums can make the chore of vacuuming less painful. Modern models mop and even climb (small) steps.

They have a small trash bin that they empty themselves and some can be operated by a smartphone app instead of an actual remote. Some come with mapping features to help them navigate more efficiently.

1. Power

Our top pick for robotic hoovers vacuums has a suction power of 8,000Pa, which is enough to remove even the most difficult hairs and dirt. The ultra-thin shape of the square allows it to slide beneath furniture, such as couches and beds. Dual-Laser LIDAR technology offers precise obstacle avoidance and intelligent navigation. It also does a fantastic job at cleaning pet hair baking soda, sand, and other debris that can be found near the baseboards and in corners.

Aside from the DEEBOT X2 OMNI, the other powerful bots in this list include the iRobot Roomba j7+ and the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra. The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra has docking stations that automates maintenance. It also has mopping capabilities. Its powerful suction, coupled with its effective mopping feature, ensured my floors were free of pet hair, muddy prints, and other debris on every type of floor we tested.

In the lower cost range, a model with around 2,500Pa of suction is more than adequate for most homes. These models are quieter, and, therefore, a better choice for those with sensitive ears. They aren't silent, but they are only the same volume as conversations at home.

For the best mix of usability and power, consider your cleaning needs and budget. For regular light-duty cleaning, a longer runtime with less suction is recommended. For heavy-duty cleaning, weekly runs require the most power. Check your flooring, home layout and cleaning schedules prior to selecting the right model. We recommend checking out our complete list of robot automatic vacuum cleaner and mop reviews and ratings for more details about the latest models available. Many users report seeing their carpets and bare floors looking significantly cleaner after introducing a robot vacuum to their home.

2. Navigation

A robot vacuum isn't able to perform its task when it doesn't know how to navigate around your home. For this reason, the most effective robots depend on sophisticated navigation systems that consistently scans rooms and builds an outline map to ensure thorough cleaning without being lost or hitting obstacles. There are three kinds of robot navigation: LiDAR-based, sensor-based and camera-based.

The most expensive models employ LiDAR to create a digital map of the room. This model offers the highest levels of precision and efficiency. Less expensive models depend on bump sensors which are less accurate and can miss a lot of debris in dark spaces. Most robots are equipped with cliff sensors to stop them from falling off steps or other drops.

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

Take into consideration features such as sensors that detect floors that automatically boost suction power when needed. Some robots like the Roborock mop make use of mopping pads lift to reach into corners and clean dried spills. Many hybrids can apply cleaning solution to stubborn stains.

A smaller size of the bin will require less frequent emptying, however, a larger one can save you money on replacements. Most low-cost robotic cleaners use a small, disposable dust bag. However, the majority of mid-range models come with larger dustbins of 3L that last a long time. Some premium robots like the ECOVACS DEEBOT OMNI Station are able to self-empty and fill up their water tank for hands-free convenience.

3. App control

The majority of robot vacuums have an app to monitor cleaning progress and schedule sessions. They also connect to smart home devices. Many robot vacuums can be controlled via voice using Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. Some models have a remote control that allows you to start or pause and then return to dock. Find a model with a bigger dustbin that can self-empty, as opposed to one that requires manual emptying.

Some robots are equipped with mapping technology that can help them remember obstacles, such as the stairs, and also avoid running into furniture. Others allow you to set no-go zones or targeted rooms, so they only clean areas that require it the most. They also have a cliff sensor to stop them from falling, which is especially helpful in multi-leveled homes.

If you want to utilize your robot vacuum for cleaning rug carpets, you should choose a model which can be used for wet and dry mopping. You'll be able to get better results from the robot vacuum that can remove its own mop pad, and then wash and reattach when it comes time for another cleaning cycle. Find robots that have an elastomer roller. It is less likely to become tangled from pet hair or other particles. Check the robot's side brush and brushroll for any debris that has gotten stuck on. Make sure to do this at least twice per week. If you notice that they're starting to clog up it could be time to buy replacement parts.

4. Debris collection

As the name implies robot vacuums are created to remove dust and other debris from your floors. The best robot vacuums can take tiny particles, such as sand and baking soda, and larger ones such as metal screws, orzo, and pet hair. They also have better results on carpets with a low pile than manual vacuums.

The top-performing robots across all flooring types had scores higher than 95%. The ECOVACS DEEBOT X2 OMNI and the Roborock Q Revo were two of our most efficient bots in this class. Both are highly automated, equipped with docking stations that do maintenance on their own and features in the app that make them extremely user-friendly.

Both have self-emptying bins that suck up the contents of the wastebasket and clean the washboard while you mow. They also have 8,000Pa suction and smart mapping technology and advanced obstacle avoidance that can help them find their way around even the most difficult of spaces. The ECOVACS robot mop is one of the few that can mop carpet and take away mop pads. This makes it an ideal choice for users who have to switch between mopping and vacuuming frequently.

If you're looking for a cheaper alternative, take a look at the Roomba Combo J7 by iRobot Plus, our budget-friendly pick. It features LIDAR navigation at reasonable prices and decent debris collection performance. It's slow to map rooms and is susceptible to crashing into obstacles, however, it's cheaper than our other top selections.

5. Battery life

The most effective robot vacuums let you get on with your day while keeping your floors in perfect state. While you'll still have to give your home a manual sweeping every now and then, robovacs can help you keep a certain level of cleanliness and even keep your home clean when you're away.

To maximize the amount of time you can use your robovac, choose an advancé with a long battery life. If you use the highest power setting, a model should last two cleaning sessions. This is smaller than a large automatic vacuum cleaner but it should be sufficient to keep most homes clean. If you don't want to be waiting around while your robovac charges you could select one that will automatically make its return to the base station to recharge.

If you're looking for a robovac that has a little bit of everything in it, then think about a robot that can also mop. Eufy's X10 is the most effective model in this category has self-emptying and self-refilling for the dust bin and the water tank and the mop pad. It can be programmed to automatically refill and wash its mop pads when they run out.

The clear winner in our tests is the Dyson V810 because of its impressive carpet and hard floor pickup, excellent hair pickup, tangle-free performance, and nearly perfect auto empty score. It's not cheap, however and unless you have a a small home with no pets, it could be too pricey for some. The second-placed model is the Dreametech D10+, has identical performance, but is priced 25% less.
