The Best Robot Vacuum Cleaner
Vacuuming is the bane of many lives, but robot vacuums make it easier. Today's models also mop and can even climb (small) steps.
Some have a smaller bin that they empty by themselves. Others are controlled with a smartphone app rather than a physical remote. Some models have mapping features that aid in navigation.
1. Power
Our top choice for robot vacuums comes with a suction force of 8,000Pa, which is enough to remove even the most stubborn hairs and dirt. Its ultra-thin square shape allows it to slide beneath furniture, such as couches and beds. Dual-Laser LIDAR technology allows for precise obstacle avoidance as well as intelligent navigation. It's also great at cleaning pet hair, baking powder, and other debris near corners and baseboards.
In addition to the DEEBOT X2 OMNI, the other top-of-the-line bots on this list include the robot vacuums that mop Roomba J7+ and the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra. The Roborock S8 Pro Ultra includes docking station that automatically handles maintenance. It also comes with mopping capabilities. Its powerful suction and efficient mopping helped keep my floors clear of pet hair, muddy paw prints, and other debris during every flooring type test we conducted.
In the lower price range, a unit with around 2,500Pa of suction is sufficient for the majority of homes. They are also quieter, which makes them the ideal option for people with sensitive hearing. They're not quiet, but they're not the same volume as a normal conversation at home.
Consider your budget and cleaning needs to determine the best combination of power and usability. Regular light-duty cleaning requires a longer runtime and a lower suction, while weekly heavy-duty cleaning demands maximum power. Take a look at your flooring, layout of your home and cleaning schedules to choose the right model to meet your requirements. We recommend looking through our full list of robot vacuum reviews and ratings for more details on the most recent models available. Many users report having their carpets and floors looking much cleaner after introducing a robotic vacuum to their home.
2. Navigation
A robot vacuum isn't able to perform its job well when it doesn't know how to get around your home. This is why the best robots use sophisticated navigation systems that consistently scans rooms and creates maps to ensure thorough cleaning without being lost or hitting obstacles. There are three kinds of robot navigation: LiDAR, camera and sensor.
LiDAR is used by the most expensive models to create a virtual room map, which provides the highest levels in precision and efficiency. Less expensive models rely on bump sensors, which are less accurate and tend to miss many debris in dark areas. The majority of robots have cliff sensors, which prevent them from falling off stairs or other drops.
Several robots in my tests used object recognition to deftly navigate things like fake cords and dog turds but the best robot vacuum that mops was the Eufy X10. It had superb mapping capabilities with powerful oscillating mops, an intuitive app and the ability to clean a zone, room or whole home.
Consider features such as sensors for floors that automatically increase suction power when required. Certain robots such as the Roborock mop make use of mopping pad lift that allows you to get into corners and clean up dried spills. Many hybrids can even apply cleaning solutions to stubborn staining.
A smaller size of the bin means less frequent emptying, and a larger one will save you money on replacements. The cheapest robotic hoovers cleaners usually utilize a small disposable dust bag, but the majority of mid-range models come with larger dust bins of 3L that last for ages. Certain premium 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 and schedule cleaning sessions. They also connect to smart home devices. Many also sync with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant for control via voice. Some models have an on-screen remote that lets you start the process, pause it, and return to dock. Look for a model with a bigger dustbin that can self-empty instead of one that requires manual emptying.
Certain robovacs come with technology for mapping to help them avoid obstacles such as stairs and furniture. Others allow you to create no-go zones or specific rooms, so they only clean areas that need it most. They also come with cliff sensors to keep them from falling down the stairs, which is especially useful in multi-level homes.
If you plan to use your robot vacuum to clean rugs, opt for one that is capable of dry mopping as well as wet. You'll get better cleaning results if your robot vacuum can also take off its mop pad. Rinse it, and then reconnect it when you want to run a new cleaning cycle. Look for a robot with the rubber roller. This is less likely to tangle from pet hair or other particles. Check the robot's side brush and brushroll for any debris that has been stuck to them. Do this at least twice a week. If you notice they are getting clogged, it may be time to purchase replacement parts.
4. Debris collection
Like the name suggests robot vacuums are made to collect dust and other debris from your floors. The best ones pick fine particles such as baking soda and sand, as well as larger pieces like orzo pasta, screws made of metal and pet hair. They also provide better results on carpets with low pile than many manual vacuums.
The top-performing robots across all flooring types had pickup scores higher than 95 percent. The ECOVACS DEEBOT X2 OMNI and the Roborock Q Revo were the two top-performing robots in this category. Both are highly automated, equipped with docking stations that perform maintenance by themselves and features in the app that make them extremely user-friendly.
They both have self-emptying bins that automatically empty the wastebasket. They also have the ability to clean the washboard as they mowing. They also have suction of 8,000Pa and smart mapping technology and advanced obstacle avoidance that helps them navigate even the most challenging areas. The ECOVACS model is also among the few robots that we tested that can remove its mop pads and vacuum carpet which makes it the ideal option for those who need to switch between vacuuming and mopping frequently.
If you're looking for a more affordable alternative, we suggest the Roomba Combo J7 from iRobot+, our budget pick. It comes with LIDAR navigation for an affordable price and decent performance in the collection of debris. It's slow to map rooms and is susceptible to bumping into obstacles, however it's much less expensive than our other top-rated choices.
5. Battery life
The top robot vacuums are designed to let you move on with your life while keeping your floors clean and spick and clean. You'll still have to manually clean your home every so often but robovacs can assist you in maintaining a minimum level of cleanliness and even clean while you're away.
Choose a robovac that has long-lasting batteries to get the most of it. A good rule of thumb is to expect a model to last about two full cleaning sessions if you use it at the highest power setting. This is smaller than a larger vacuum but should be sufficient to keep most homes clean. If you don't like to be waiting around while your robovac charges, you can also choose one that will automatically make its way back to its base station to recharge.
If you're looking to buy a robovac with a variety of features in it, then think about an option that also mop. Eufy's X10 is the top model in this class and provides self-emptying, auto-draining and self-refilling of the dust container and mop pad. It can be programmed to refill and wash its mops when they run out.
Its dependable carpet and hard floor pick-up excellent hair pickup, tangle-free, and a an almost perfect auto empty score makes it the clear winner of our test scores. It's not cheap and unless you have a small house with no pets, it may be too expensive for certain. The runner-up one, the Dreametech D10+, has very similar performance but is priced 25 percent less.
