How to Choose the Best Robot Vacuum Cleaner
Robot vacuums will save you time and effort when it comes to cleaning. Top performers are good at getting rid of dust, light debris and cords.
The pricier ones even mop your floors--though they still can't climb the stairs. Look for models that have smart mapping, real-time hazards avoidance, and large self-emptying bins.
Best Overall
The best robots we tested were efficient, easy-to-use and able to cope with the daily debris. You'll want a robot with adequate carpet-picking capabilities and the ability to handle stairs. If you're looking for additional features, you may be interested in a model with smart mapping technology or an application that allows you to control it remotely.
Camryn Rabideau is a contributing shopping writer and Robotvacuummops.com product reviewer at PEOPLE who has tested dozens of robotic vacuums. She prefers robovacs that have the most features such as ones that have self-emptying bins and charging stations that automatically empty and refill water tanks for mopping robotic vacuums. She also loves robots that recognize landmarks such as furniture legs and power cables so that they don't fall when climbing the stairs.
This robot from Black and Decker has a lower score on navigation and has less object-avoidance technology than the best-rated models. It does however have a large dustbin that doesn't require frequent emptying and a long battery life. It also comes with an option that allows you to schedule cleaning times and then return to the place it stopped last, making it easier to clean larger spaces. This model is also a good choice for pet owners because it is able to identify and prevent tangled hair as well as fallen food particles.
In our tests, we discovered that the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra combined a LIDAR (light) sensor that can identify obstacles and map rooms using a structured-light sensor that can detect objects and detect edges. This combination lets it avoid steps, drops of liquid, and furniture legs easily and save up to four floor maps to be used in the future for references. It is able to stop and restart cleaning at any time, so you can continue to do chores while it works. The included app provides an interactive 3D model of your home, room labels, and advanced cleaning options.
This model isn't as effective at cleaning as our top models, however it is great in removing heavier objects like orzo pasta, metal screws and fine particles such as sand. The only downsides are that it isn't able to mop and its navigation system is a little less impressive.
Best for Carpet
If you have carpeting in your home, you should look for a robot vacuum with excellent pickup and good maneuverability scores on carpets and rugs. A lot of models are adept at cleaning dust from low-pile rugs, and some do a decently job of cleaning up larger debris such as orzo pasta and screws made of metal. They can't take in small particles like an upright canister, and could miss dirt close to baseboards or thresholds.
For carpeted homes the 2-in-1 robot vacuum is the best choice. You can exchange a cleaning bin for a damp mopping mat. The Roborock Q Revo, for example, is a vacuum cleaner and mops with circular pads that rotate at a speed of 200 rotations per minute. It detects and lifts the pads when it comes into contact with carpet to avoid wetting the floor, and you don't have to take them off or replace them after every use. The Q Revo is also better than other robot vacuums and mops in staying clear of obstacles such as rugs and thresholds and staying clear of obstacles.
The iRobot Roomba Combo i5 is another option worth considering. It performed well in our tests, and you can schedule it to sweep your home while you are away. It can be set up to mop only. We were impressed by its ability to navigate on floors that are not bare as well as carpets. The Combo i5 also has a very long runtime and excellent path planning for such a small device.
If you're looking for a advanced model, look into the Shark AI Ultra 2-in-1 Self-Empty Robot Vacuum & Mop. It has a large charging dock that can run for months without needing to be empty, and it has amazing navigation capabilities and auto-emptying on bare floors and carpets. It also has a smart-mapping system and can be programmed to operate during certain hours of the day (a useful feature that can keep children and pets who are prone to mischief from causing havoc). The Shark has less suction power than some other robot vacuums and mops, but its still very good at picking up hair and pet hair and is the best value of our top choices.
Best for Hard Flooring
Robot vacuums are a great pick for hardwood floors because they are able to maneuver around obstacles and not damage surfaces that are not bare. They are great at picking up dust and crumbs, but struggle with pet hair and larger debris. They lack the suction of the top canister or upright vacuum, which makes them unsuitable for deep cleaning upholstery or carpeted areas.
The best robots are two-in-one, which combine the power of a mop with a vacuum to complete the job in one go. Find a model that has an onboard sensor that detects changes in the floor's texture and adjust suction to match. This feature is available on the ECOVACS Deebot T9+ and allows it to move seamlessly from hard carpeting to soft carpeting.
If your home is mostly composed of hardwood floors, think about a robotic vacuum and mop combination like the Eufy S1 Pro. This model is a powerful robot vacuum with intelligent navigation to clean hardwood and other hard surfaces. Additionally, it has the ability to mop as well. The sensors help it avoid the stairs and other hazards, so you don't have to worry about the bot plummeting down the stairs and damaging your hardwood.
The Eufy S1 Pro mop is designed to clean hardwood floors using downward pressure, rather than simply swab them to get rid of dust and dirt. Its pads that can be reused reduce waste and spread less germs. They can also be cleaned at docking stations to help save time. They are also able to be dried, washed, and reused.
The robovac can be operated by your smartphone, making it simpler to use. You can, for example, use the app to create zones that the vacuum won't be allowed to enter, label different rooms or schedule specific cleaning times. The eufy S1 Pro also has an auto-emptying dock that sucks debris through a trapdoor, and puts it in a bagless or disposable bin, meaning you don't need to empty the bin manually as often as you do with other models.
Best for Small Spaces
These robots are specifically designed for smaller spaces. They have smaller bins, which hold less debris. They are also more efficient when it comes to getting around corners better over larger models. They can also fit under furniture, where the bigger robots struggle to reach. These robots are also cheaper than the more expensive models, but you will have to empty their dirt compartments manually at the end of each cleaning session.
A couple of years ago, robotic vacuums underwent a major transformation when manufacturers started adding sensors to help navigate around and avoid household objects that their traditional sensors would get stuck on or run over. This improved the number of times that our testers were required to clean up after a robotic accident.
However, the new sensors haven't solved all of these machines' problems. The most affordable models struggle with the same challenges that the older ones did and most require a certain amount of illumination to see where they're going. Look into an option that incorporates an LIDAR spinning unit that is that is mounted on top to trace the area. Our top overall pick and runner-up models do this. This allows them to avoid stairs and other barriers while working in the dark.
The models can also be programmed to utilize their cliff sensors when they are in or near the ground, and not when they are above it. It is essential to cover mirrors in order to stop this from happening. The lasers used by LIDAR-based models may bounce off reflective surfaces, causing the robot to think it's in a different space.
Some of the models we recommend let you create virtual no-go areas for areas you don't wish the robot to visit. This is a great option for those with pets or small children. These features aren't offered on all the models we test so make sure to read our full reviews of the choices below prior to making a purchase.
