How to Choose the Best Robot Vacuum bot cleaner

A robot vacuum can help you save time and effort when it comes to regular touch-ups. The best budget robot vacuum ones are adept at cleaning up dust light debris, cords and dust.

The ones that are more expensive can even mop your floor, but they can't climb stairs. Look for models with intelligent mapping, real-time hazard avoidance, and roomy self-emptying bins.

Best Overall

The top robots we've tested in our testing are efficient and user-friendly, and able to cope with everyday debris. You'll need a robot that has decent carpet-picking power and the ability to handle stairs. If you're looking for additional features, you may be interested in a model that uses smart mapping technology, or an app that lets you control the robot remotely.

Camryn Rabideau is a contributing shopping writer and product reviewer at PEOPLE who has tested numerous robotic vacuums. She's a huge fan of robovacs that offer the most convenience, including self-emptying dustbins and charging docks that automatically empty and refill water tanks for mopping robots. She's also a fan of the robots that are able to detect landmarks such as furniture legs and power cords so they don't get tripped up when climbing stairs.

This Black and Decker robot has a lower navigation score and has less technology for avoiding objects than the top-rated models. However, it has an enormous dust bin that doesn't require regular emptying and has a lengthy battery life. In addition, it has an option that allows you to plan cleaning times and return to the spot where it last stopped, making it easier to tackle larger areas. This model is a great choice for pet owners because it will prevent the tangles of fur and food particles.

In our tests in our tests, the Roborock S8 Pro Ultra combines with a LIDAR sensor that is able to map rooms and see obstacles with a structured light sensor to identify objects and detect edges. The combination allows it to stay clear of stairs, drops of liquid and furniture legs with ease and save up to four floor maps for future reference. It is also able to stop the cleaning process at any moment and resume where it left off, so you can do chores while the robot is working. The included app offers the 3D image of your home, room labels and advanced cleaning options.

The self-cleaning robot vacuums (visit the next document) isn't as efficient in cleaning like our top models, however it excels at picking up heavier items like orzo pasta, metal screws and fine particles such as sand. Its only drawbacks are that it isn't able to mop and has a slightly less efficient navigation system.

The best option for Carpet

If you have carpeting, choose a robot vacuum that scores high for rug and carpet maneuverability and pickup. A lot of models are adept at picking up dust in low-pile rugs, and some can be quite effective in sweeping up heavier debris such as orzo pasta and metal screws. They can't take in small particles like an upright or canister, and could miss dirt close to thresholds or baseboards.

The best choice for most carpeted homes is a 2-in-1 robot vacuum/mop, which lets you swap in a cleaning bin and mopping pad that is damp. The Roborock Q Revo is a 2-in-1 robotic vacuum/mop that is able to clean and mop at the same time with circular pads spinning at 200 revolutions per minute. It automatically detects and lifts the pads when it comes into contact with carpet, preventing it from soaking the floor. You don't have to take them off or replace them after every use. The Q Revo is also superior to other robot vacuum cleaner industrial vacuum/mops at staying clear of obstacles and rugs, while also getting close to them and thresholds and eliminating obstacles.

The iRobot Roomba Combo i5 is another good option. It did well in our tests and you can program it to sweep your home when you are away. It can be set to only mop and we loved its impressive navigation on both bare floors and rugs, as well as its ability to climb over and up onto furniture. The Combo i5 has a long runtime and excellent path-planning for the size of the device.

If you're looking to buy a high-tech vacuum that is high-tech, the Shark AI Ultra 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum & Mop is a fantastic option. It comes with a large charging dock that can run for months without needing to be empty, and it has impressive navigation skills and automatic emptying on carpets and floors that are not cleaned. It also has a smart-mapping system and can be programmed to operate during certain hours of the day (a handy feature for keeping children and pets who are prone to mischief from causing havoc). The Shark is less powerful than other mop/robot combination models however, it still picks hair and pet hair with a high degree of accuracy. It's also the highest price of our top picks.

Best for Hard Flooring

Robot vacuums are best for hardwood floors, as they can navigate through obstacles with ease without causing damage the surfaces that are not. They are excellent at of removing dust and crumbs, however they struggle with pet hair and other larger particles. They don't have the suction power of a high-end upright or canister vacuum, so they're not the ideal choice for carpeted rooms or deep cleaning upholstery.

The best two-in-1 robots combine mopping and vacuum, taking care of an entire task in one pass. Choose one that has an onboard sensor that can detect changes in the floor's texture and adjust suction to match. This feature is available on the ECOVACS Deebot T9+ and lets it effortlessly transition from hard carpeting to soft carpeting.

If you have lots of hardwood floors in your home, you may want to consider a robot mop and vacuum like the Eufy S1 Pro. This model features a powerful robot vacuum with smart navigation to clean hardwood and other hard surfaces. Additionally, it can mop too. Its sensors let it stay clear of hazards like stairs.

When it comes to mops, the Eufy S1 Pro is designed to actually clean hardwood floors using downward pressure rather than just wipe them to remove light dirt and dust. The mop pads that are reusable reduce waste, spread germs less and can be cleaned in the docking station, saving you time. The mops can also be washed and dried to stop the spread of mold.

Both the robovac and mop can be controlled by your smartphone to make it easier to manage the device. You can, for instance utilize the app to create no-go zones that the vacuum won't enter, or to label rooms, or schedule specific cleaning times. The eufy S1 Pro has an auto-emptying port that collects debris via trapdoors and then puts it in a bagless or disposable bin. This means you don't need to empty the bin manually as often as with other models.

Best for Small Spaces

As the name suggests, these robots are best suited for small spaces. They have smaller bins that contain less garbage, and are more efficient than the larger models when it comes to navigating tight corners. They can also be tucked under furniture, where the larger robots are unable to reach. They tend to be cheaper than the pricier picks, however, you'll need to empty their dirt storage compartments at the end of each cleaning session.

A few years ago, robot vacuums underwent a major transformation when manufacturers began adding sensors to help navigate and avoid household objects that their traditional sensors would be stuck on or over. These advances reduced the number of times that our testers had to clean up after a robotic snag, whether it was an electrical cord, toy or pet waste.

However, the latest sensors haven't resolved all of these machines' problems. The cheapest models still struggle with the same issues that the older ones faced and, in addition, they require a certain amount of light to see where they're going. You should consider an option that incorporates an LIDAR spinning unit that is that is mounted on top to map the space. Our top overall model and the runners-up have this feature. This will allow them to avoid obstacles like stairs and other ones while working in the dark.

In addition to being capable of working in dark, these models can be configured to use their cliff sensors only when they're on or near the floor, not when they're above them. It's essential to cover mirrors in order to stop this from occurring. The laser used by the LIDAR-based models may bounce off reflective surfaces, which makes the robot believe it's in a different room.

Some of the models we recommend let you set up virtual no-go zones in areas where you do not want the robot go, which can be useful if you have small pets or children. These features aren't present on all models we test. Read our full reviews before making your choice.
