The Best Robot Vacuum Cleaner
Vacuuming is a major cause of many lives, but robot vacuums make it a little more enjoyable. Today's models also mop and can even climb (small) stairs.
Some have a small bin which they empty themselves. Others can be controlled via a smartphone app rather than the physical remote. Some models have mapping features that assist in navigation.
1. Power
Our top pick for robot vacuums has a suction power of 8000Pa, which is strong enough to get rid of even the most stubborn hairs and dirt. Its slim square shape enables it to slide under furniture, such as beds and sofas. Dual-Laser LIDAR technology allows for precise obstacle avoidance and intelligent navigation. It is also great at cleaning baking powder, pet hair and other messes around corners and baseboards.
In addition to the DEEBOT X2 OMNI bot, other powerful bots in this list include the Robot Roomba J7+ as well as the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra. The latter comes with a sturdy docking station that automates maintenance and includes mopping capabilities as well. Its powerful suction, combined with its effective mopping feature, kept my floors clean of pet hair, muddy prints, and other debris on every floor we tested.
A model that has 2,500Pa suction will suffice for most homes in the lower price range. They are also quieter, which makes them an ideal option for people who have sensitive hearing. They aren't silent, however they are not about the same as normal conversations at home.
Consider your budget and cleaning needs to determine the best combination of power and usability. Frequent light-duty tidying requires a longer runtime and a lower suction, whereas weekly heavy-duty cleaning demands maximum power. Assess your flooring, layout of your home and cleaning schedule prior to selecting the best model. We suggest looking through our entire list of robot vacuum reviews and ratings for more details on the most recent models available. Many customers report seeing their carpets and bare floors looking significantly cleaner after introducing a robotic vacuum in their home.
2. Navigation
A robot vacuum won't be able to do its job well if it doesn't know how to navigate around your home. The best robots that vacuum and mop use sophisticated navigation technology to scan rooms and make a map, ensuring thorough cleaning without getting stuck or hitting obstacles. There are three types of robot navigation: LiDAR, camera and sensor.
The most expensive models employ LiDAR to build a virtual map of the room, delivering the highest levels of accuracy and efficiency. Less expensive models depend on bump sensors which are more prone to error and tend to miss a lot of debris in dark areas. Most robots come with cliff sensors to stop them from falling off steps or other drops.
Several robots I tested used object recognition to navigate things like cords and fake dog turds. But the Eufy X10 was the best. It had powerful oscillating mop heads as well as a user-friendly application and a superb mapping capability.
Other features worth considering include floor type sensors that recognize carpets with soft and hard floors and automatically boost suction power when needed. Certain robots, like the Roborock mop, make use of a mopping pad lift to reach corners and eliminate dried spills. Some hybrids even apply cleaning solution to stubborn stains.
A smaller bin means less frequent emptying, however, a larger one can save you money on replacements. The majority of robotic cleaners that are low-cost use a small, disposable dust bag. However, most middle-priced models have larger 3L dustbins which last for a long period of time. Certain high-end robots, such as the ECOVACS DEEBOT OMNI station, will self-empty their bins and fill their water tanks, allowing convenience without hands.
3. App control
The best robot cleaner robot vacs have an application that lets you track cleaning progress and schedule your sessions and can connect to smart home devices to allow hands-free control. Most also can sync with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant for control via voice. Some have a dedicated remote control that lets you start or pause, and then return to dock. Select a model with a larger trash bin and can self-empty, rather than one that requires manual emptying.
Certain robovacs have mapping technology that allows them to remember obstacles, like staircases, and prevents them from running into furniture. Others allow you to create no-go zones or specific rooms, so that they only clean the areas that require the most. They also have a cliff sensor to stop them from falling, which is particularly helpful in multi-leveled homes.
If you plan to use your robot vacuum for cleaning rugs, choose one that can be used for wet and dry mopping. You'll get better results from the robot vacuum that can remove its own mop pad too, which you can then rinse and reattach when it's time for another cleaning cycle. Find robots that have an elastomer roller. This is less likely to tangle from pet hair or other particles. Check the robot's side brushes and brushroll for any debris that might have gotten stuck on. Do this once or twice a week. If you notice that they are beginning to get clogged up it could be time to buy replacement parts.
4. Debris collection
robot vacuum cleaners best vacuums are made according to the name to remove dust and other debris from your floors. The best robot vacuums will pick up tiny particles, such as sand and baking soda, and larger ones like metal screws, orzo, and pet hair. They also provide better pick-up results on carpets with low piles than the majority of manual vacuums.
The top-performing robots across all flooring types had a pickup score over 95%. The two top performers in this category were the ECOVACS DEEBOT X2 OMNI, and the Roborock Q Revo. Both are highly automated and feature robust docking stations that perform maintenance on their own. They also have app features that make them incredibly user-friendly.
They both have self-emptying bins that collect the waste from the wastebasket, and clean the washboard while you mow. They also have an 8,000Pa vacuum, intelligent mapping technology and advanced obstacle avoidance that helps them navigate through even the most difficult spaces. The ECOVACS model is also one of the few robots we tested that could remove its mop pads and vacuum carpet which makes it the best option for those who need to switch between vacuuming and mopping regularly.
If you're looking for a more affordable alternative, we suggest the Roomba Combo J7 from iRobot+, our budget choice. It offers LIDAR navigation for reasonable prices and decent performance in the collection of debris. It can be a bit slow when it comes to mapping rooms and has a tendency of bumping into obstacles, but the price is less than our other picks.
5. Battery life
The top robot vacuums are designed to let you get moving with your day while keeping your floors looking spick and span. While you'll still need to give your home a manual vacuum every now and then Robotic vacuums can help maintain a baseline level of cleanliness and even keep your home clean when you're away.
To maximize the amount of time you get from your robovac, look for a model with excellent battery life. A good guideline is to anticipate a model to last for about two cleaning sessions when you run it at the highest power setting. This is less than a typical size vacuum cleaner, however it should be enough to provide for the majority of homes. If you don't want to wait while your robovac charges, you can choose a model that will automatically return to the base station for charging.
If you're looking for a robot that does a amount of everything, you should consider an all-in-one machine that can mop too. Eufy's X10, the best model of this category has self-emptying and self-refilling for the dust bin, the water tank, and the mop pad. It can also be programmed to automatically re-fill and wash its own mop pads when they're empty.
The clear winner in our tests is the Dyson V810, because of its impressive carpet and hard floor pickup, outstanding hair pickup, tangle-free performance and nearly perfect auto empty score. It's not cheap, however and unless you live in an apartment with no pets, it could be too pricey for some. The runner-up one, the Dreametech D10+, has the same performance, but costs about 25% less.
