Top Rated Robot Vacuums A robot vacuum is able to keep the floors clean enough to cut down on the frequency you need to manually vacuum Choose one that has an easy navigation can clean stairs and corners and also has a large dust bin that needs emptying only periodically There are models that mop and charge themselves this is an option important for families with children or pets A majority of the top performers in our tests have excellent ability to overcome obstacles 1 iRobot Roomba i3 EVO The i3 EVO and its i3 EVO sibling the i3 EVO are both identical robots but they differ in that the i3 has selfemptying features This makes the i3 a great option for those who want a handsoff fully automated cleaning experience but dont mind having to empty their dust bin manually when it fills up Both robots are adept in removing dirt and dust particles on floors and carpets and can move around furniture and other obstacles iAdapt navigation software creates intelligent maps of your home that aid the i3 EVO to navigate and clean in a manner that maximizes efficiency The i3 doesnt have obstacle avoidance capabilities like the i7 or any other toprated robots that we tested It may be stuck on power cords and socks and may have trouble navigating between surfaces such as rug and hardwood iRobot suggests that you clean up the area where the i3 EVO vacuums prior to using it This includes getting rid of any toys or clutter it might come across Its also recommended to keep the bin and filter clear so they do not become blocked by dirt If the i3s internal bin is empty or the battery is not fully charged it returns to the docking station and takes the dirt out of the docking stations external dustbin Then it continues cleaning from where it left off The batterys life span is approximately an hour and a half of constant usage It takes three hours to charge 2 iRobot i7 Roomba The iRobot Roomba i7 is the top model in iRobots flagship line and it comes with all the latest features It has selfcharging and selfnavigating However the most important feature is the selfemptying bin This removes the need for routine maintenance The Roomba i7 is able to remember up to 10 floor plans and their names thanks to Imprint Smart Mapping an application that allows it to identify rooms to clean them more efficiently It also works with the iRobot Home app to let you schedule cleaning jobs and direct your robot by voice or through the app The i7 is faster and more maneuverable in our tests than the eufy RoboVac G30 It also removed large pet hair pieces from all surfaces including carpeting The biggest benefit over the eufy though the dust bin is selfemptying which eliminates a major cause of maintenance and reduces the cost of maintenance self cleaning vacuum were also impressed by the i7s compatibility with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant AI services which we used to instruct the robot to begin stop or pause its cleaning routines move itself around the room and vacuum an area Connecting the i7 to these services was simple and easy with the iRobot Home app Once connected we were able to communicate with the i7 using voice commands such as Hey Alexa vacuum the master bedroom The iRobot Home App also offers options for managing i7 settings and evaluating performance 3 Dyson Cyclone V10 This tiny Dyson model is an allsports car in a world of cordless vacuums that feel like minivans and buses Its powerful and has features to replace a standup vacuum for many households however it can also fit nicely on the coffee table or the bookshelf where you can wave it around like a magic tool The V10 is powered by seven cells of energydense Lithiumion batteries that produces power without fading for 60 minutes The advanced wholemachine filtering system is able to trap allergens and then releases fresh air into your home Its specialized head uses stiff nylon bristles to drive deep into carpets and collect large dust or crumbs It has three suction modes that can be adapted to the task It can quickly switch from floor vacuum to handheld vacuum and vice versa The model also comes with docks that charge to 100 in around 35 hours and offers easy access to two attachments as well as the wand clip best affordable robot vacuum is a significant improvement over earlier Dysons models that require a long charge and are a pain to store The main drawback of the V10 is its limited running time As CRs tests have shown its claims to run up to 60 minutes are misleading This is a common not exceptional batterypowered vacuums run time Thats still enough run time to clean most of a typicalsized home but not quite long enough to cover every spot though an additional runthrough often does the trick Thats not to say this model doesnt have its benefits Its lighter and maneuverable than older cordless Dysons and its vacuuming performance is significantly better on carpets with low pile 4 iRobot Roomba 694 One of iRobots most adored robot vacuums The 694 is a basic model thats an excellent option for those who dont want to invest too much on a robotic It could pick up all kinds of debris and sizes during our tests and frequently went over the same area multiple times to give an extensive clean Its flat front side helps to get into corners and along the walls edges which is a nice feature Its navigation system is smart and uses iAdapt technology to steer clear of obstacles and help you navigate your home However it lacks the ability to map that is found in more advanced models including our top picks the i3EVO and the j7 Series It can get stuck on phone cords or furniture and often runs out of power before returning to its home base The Xiaomi Mi robot is superior in many ways over the Roomba 694 in that it has fewer parts that require regular cleaning is equipped with an allergentrapping HEPA filtering system has a lower cost of recurring costs and is more sophisticated in its automation capabilities and can better navigate its own It also has a bigger dustbin and is charged faster The sleek RoboVac X8 has a superior battery longevity than the Roomba 694 It also has physical boundaries strips that can be controlled with your smartphones voice assistant It also feels betterbuilt and has a stronger motor and performs notably better on bare floors and lowpile carpet while providing a greater variety of automation options 5 Samsung Jet Bot AI Samsung is a household name in the field of home electronics Its not surprising then that they are also among the top manufacturers of robot vacuums and mop Jet Bot AI has a cuttingedge onboard technology for navigation and obstacle avoidance The app gives you plenty of options to customize your robotic cleaner such as virtual barriers mopping water levels and behavior modification docking frequency settings and much more The app is easy to navigate and use similar to other Samsung devices In our testing our tests the Jet Bot AI excelled on hard floors and handled dog hair on carpet quite well cleaning up 86 percent of it It was not as successful in avoiding taller objects like socks or cords This was disappointing Its also more expensive than the other models that we tested and this could be a deal breaker for certain shoppers The app lets you access the camera onboard of the smart vacuum You can also create live streaming from the robots area of cleaning This feature allows you check in on your pets or children while you are away The filter and the dustbin can be cleaned to ensure the quick and easy cleaning The Jet Bot AI also comes with a clean and tidy station that selfempties to keep the robots trash bin clean and maximizes suction power for each cleaning 6 Black Decker Robot Vacuum Contrary to other robotic vacuums which are designed for both carpets and hard floors Black and Decker robots are specifically designed for hard floors The robots have an extra wide cleaning path and a dustbin that is 2 times larger than other models This lets them keep the area clean for longer They also include two side sweepers to clean along edges and corners The POWERSERIES model includes AutoSense that automatically adjusts the power level based on whether it is cleaning up surface dirt or embedded dirt It also comes with a smart app that lets you browse the virtual map and control functions and schedules You can also check the status of the vacuum and connect it to the dock for charging with the press of a single button The app allows you to personalize the LED lights on top of the vacuum with different colors so you can easily identify which areas its focused on or where its got stuck The app allows you to steer the robot manually in the event of need My living room rug for instance has a darklycolored border which could cause a problem for other robots The HRV 425BL however continued to travel across the border without registering the edge Also the ability to program the weekly cleaning schedule is a fantastic timesaving feature
