Top Rated Robot Vacuums

A robot vacuum will keep your floors tidy enough to reduce the frequency of manual hoovering. Choose one that has excellent navigation, is able to clean stairs and corners and also has a large dust bin that needs emptying only periodically.

There are models that mop and charge themselves which can be important for people with pets or children. A majority of the top performers in our tests have excellent obstacles to avoid.

1. IRobot Roomba i3+ EVO

The i3+ EVO and its sibling the i3 EVO are both identical robots, but they differ in that the i3+ comes with self-emptying features. This makes the i3+ a good option for those looking for an entirely automated vacuum cleaner, hands-free cleaning experience but don't mind manually emptying their robot's dustbin when it is full.

Both robots are good in removing dirt and dust particles on hard floors and carpets, and they can easily move around furniture and other obstacles. iAdapt navigation software creates a smart maps of your home to assist the i3+ to navigate and clean up efficiently. The i3+ doesn't have obstacle avoidance capabilities like the i7+ or other top-rated robots that we test. It could be stuck on power cords or socks, and may have trouble navigating between different surfaces like rug and hardwood.

iRobot suggests that you clear areas where the i3+ EVO will vacuum prior to when you use it, and include clearing out any toys or clutter it may encounter. It's also an excellent idea to keep the bin and filter clean so that they don't become clogged with dirt. When the i3+ EVO's internal bin is empty or the battery is depleted, it returns to the docking station and automatically emptys the dirt into the docking station’s external dustbin. Then it continues cleaning from where it began. The i3+ EVO's batteries last for about an hour and a half continuous use. It takes around three hours to fully recharge.

2. iRobot i7+ Roomba

The iRobot i7+ is a top model from iRobot’s flagship line, and it comes with the most recent features. It's self-charging, self-navigating and the most important feature of all -- it has a self-emptying dustbin that eliminates one of the main sources of maintenance for any robot vacuum.

The Roomba i7+ can keep up to 10 floor plans and their names with Imprint Smart Mapping, an application that allows it to map rooms so it can clean them more efficiently. It also integrates with the iRobot Home app to let you schedule cleaning jobs and control your robot using voice or via the app.

In our testing the i7+ was more agile and faster than our runner-up which was the eufy RoboVac G30, and it took large pieces of pet hair from all surfaces types including carpeting. Its biggest advantage over the eufy the dust bin is self-emptying, which eliminates a major source of maintenance and reduces the cost of maintenance.

We were also amazed by the i7+'s compatibility with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant AI services that we used to instruct the robot to start, stop or pause its cleaning session, move itself around the room and sweep the area. The process of connecting the i7+ to these services was easy and straightforward through the iRobot Home app. When connected to these services, we were able use the i7+'s voice commands such as "Hey Alexa, vacuum the master bedroom." The iRobot Home app also provides options to manage the i7+'s preferences and monitoring its performance.

3. Dyson Cyclone V10

This tiny Dyson model is an all-sports car in a sea of cordless vacuums that feel like minivans and buses. It's got the power and features to replace a stand-up vacuum in most households however, it can also fit perfectly next to a coffee table or on the bookshelf, that you can spin around like the magic wand.

The V10 is powered by seven cells of energy-dense Lithium-ion batteries, which produces power without fading for 60 minutes. The advanced whole-machine filtering system traps allergens, then releases cleaner air into your home. Its cleaning head is specially designed and drives bristles of nylon that are stiff and deep into carpet to collect large particles and fine dust. It comes with three suction settings to match the task that is being completed. It can quickly change between handheld and floor vacuum, and vice versa.

The model comes with an attached dock that charges the Dyson to 100% in 3.5 hours. It also provides an easy access to two attachments as well as the handheld. This is a major improvement over previous Dysons that require a long charge and are difficult to store.

The main drawback of the V10 is its limited run time. As CR's tests have shown, its advertising claims of up to 60 minutes are misleading. This is a typical battery-powered cordless vacuum's running time. That's still enough run time to get rid of the majority of an average-sized house but not long enough to cover every area (though an additional run-through often will suffice). That's not to say this model doesn't have its advantages It's lighter and more mobile than the older cordless Dysons, and its vacuuming performance is significantly superior on carpets with a low pile.

4. iRobot Roomba 694

One of iRobot's most adored robot vacuums the 694 is an affordable model that's a great choice for people who don't want to spend too much on a robotic. It was able to remove the majority of types of debris and sizes in our testing and often went over the same area multiple times for an extensive clean. Its flat front side helps to get into corners and along the edges of walls and walls, which is a nice touch.

Its navigation system is smart and uses iAdapt to stay clear of obstacles and navigate your home, but it isn't equipped with the mapping capability of more sophisticated models such as our top choices such as the i3+ EVO and the j7+ series. As a result, it can sometimes get stuck on things like phone cords or furniture that isn't as sturdy, Smart vacuum and frequently runs out of battery power before making it back to its original location.

The Xiaomi Mi robot is superior in many ways to the Roomba 694 in that it has less parts that require regular cleaning, is equipped with an allergen-trapping HEPA filtering system, incurs lower recurring cost, has more advanced automation abilities and is better able to maneuver its own. It also has a larger dustbin and charges faster.

The eufy RoboVac X8 has a superior battery longevity than the Roomba 694. It also comes with physical boundaries strips that can be controlled by your smartphone's voice assistance. It is also more durable and has a more powerful motor, and works better on both bare floors and carpets with low pile, while offering a wider range of automation options.

5. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

Samsung is a household name in the field of home electronics. It's not a surprise, then, that they are also among the top producers of cheap robot vacuum cleaner vacuums and mop. Their Jet Bot AI+ is loaded with cutting-edge onboard intelligence technology to aid in navigation and obstacle avoidance.

The app provides plenty of options to personalize your robotic cleaner, such as virtual barriers mopping water levels, behavior customization, docking frequency settings, and more. The app is simple to use and understand as are other Samsung devices.

In our testing, the Jet Bot AI+ excelled on hard floors and handled dog hair (on carpet) quite well, cleaning up 86 percent of it. It didn't do very well in avoiding taller items like socks or cords. This was disappointing. It's also more expensive than other models that we tested, and this could be a problem for some shoppers.

The smart vacuum comes with an onboard camera that you can access via the app. You can also set up a live streaming from the robot's cleaning station. This feature allows you to check in on your pets or children while you are away. The filter and the dustbin can be cleaned for the quick and easy cleaning. The Jet Bot AI+ comes with an best automatic floor cleaner clean station which helps keep the bin clean and improves suction power.

6. Black & Decker Robot Vacuum

Black and Decker robots have been designed specifically for hard flooring. The robots come with an extra-wide cleaning path, as well as dust bins that are 2X bigger than the competitors. This lets them clean the area for a longer period of time. They also come with two side sweepers to clean along edges and corners. The POWERSERIES model includes AutoSense, which automatically adjusts the power level depending on whether it's picking up dirt that is on the surface or embedded. It also includes a smart application that lets you view the virtual map and manage the functions and schedules. You can also monitor the status of the vacuum's battery and send it back to its dock for charging at the push of a button. The app lets you modify the LEDs on the top of the vacuum to tell where it is focused or if it has gotten stuck.

The app also makes it simple to steer the robot manually in the event of need. For example my living room rug has a darkly colored border that has a tendency to trip up some of the other robots I've tried. However, the HRV 425BL kept moving across the border, without registering it as a cliff. The ability to program weekly cleaning schedules is a fantastic time-saving feature.
