Top Rated Robot Vacuums
A robot vacuum will keep floors clean enough to reduce the frequency at which you'll need to manually vacuum. Pick a robot vacuum with good navigation, can clean stairs and corners, and that has a large bin that only needs to be cleaned out every now and then.
There are models that mop and charge themselves, which is a feature that is essential for families with pets or children. Many of the best robot vacuum black friday performers in our tests have excellent obstacle avoidance.
1. IRobot Roomba i3+ EVO
The i3+ EVO and its i3 EVO sibling, the i3 EVO are the same robots, but they differ in that the i3+ has self-emptying features. The i3+ is an excellent option for those who want a fully automated, hands-off cleaning experience but are willing to manually empty the robot's dustbin after it has filled up.
Both robots are adept in removing dirt and dust particles on hard floors and carpets and are able to navigate around furniture and other obstacles. iAdapt navigation software creates smart maps of your home that help the i3+ EVO navigate and clean in a manner that maximizes efficiency. However unlike the i7+ and other top-rated robots that we tested the i3+ does not have obstacle-avoidance capabilities which means it can be stuck on things like socks or power cords and may have issues traversing transitions across surfaces like hardwood to rug.
iRobot recommends that you tidy the area in which the i3+ EVO vacuums before using it. This includes putting away any toys or other items it might encounter. It's also an excellent idea to keep the dustbin and filter clean so that they aren't clogged by dirt. When the i3+'s internal bin is filled or the battery is depleted, it returns to its docking station and automatically emptying its trash into the station's dust bin, and then continues cleaning the area where it began. Battery life is about an hour and a half of continuous use. It takes 3 hours to charge.
2. iRobot Roomba i7+
The iRobot Roomba i7+ is the most powerful model in the iRobot flagship line and comes with all the latest features. It's self-charging, self-navigating, and -- the most important feature of all -- it has self-emptying bins that eliminate one of the primary sources of maintenance for any robot vacuum.
The Roomba i7+ can remember up to 10 floor plans and their names with Imprint Smart Mapping, which allows it to identify rooms to clean them more efficiently. It also integrates with iRobot Home to schedule cleaning tasks, and you can control your robot through the app or via voice.
In our testing, the i7+ was quicker and more maneuverable than our runner-up and the eufy RoboVac G30, and it picked up large pieces of pet hair from all surface kinds including carpeting. The biggest benefit over the eufy the dust bin is self-emptying that removes a major source of maintenance and lowers recurring costs.
We were also impressed with the i7+'s compatibility Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant AI services. We used these services to instruct the robot to start or stop cleaning sessions, as well as to move around the room, and even vacuum a specific area. Connecting the i7+ to these services was simple and straightforward through the iRobot Home app. We were able, once connected, to speak commands to the i7+ such as "Hey Alexa vacuum the master bedroom." The iRobot Home app also provides options for managing the i7+'s settings and monitoring its performance.
3. Dyson Cyclone V10
In a world of cordless vacs that are like minivans and buses, this small Dyson model is an old-fashioned sports car. It's powerful and has features to replace a stand-up vacuum for the majority of households and can fit in well next to the coffee table or a bookshelf where you can move it around like an enchanted tool.
The V10 is powered by a 7-cell energy-dense Lithium-ion battery that can provide power that is not fading for 60 minutes. Its sophisticated whole-machine filtration system removes allergens, and then releases clean air back into your home. Its specialized cleaning head drives bristles made of nylon that are stiff into carpets to trap large particles and fine dust. It comes with three suction settings to suit the task at hand. It is able to swiftly switch from floor vacuum to handheld vacuum, and vice versa.
This model also has a dock that charges to 100% in around 3.5 hours and offers easy access to two attachments and a clip for a wand. This is a major improvement over earlier Dysons which require a long charge and are difficult to store.
The main drawback of the V10 is its limited run time. The tests conducted by CR show that its advertising claims of up to 60 minutes are misleading. This is an average not an extraordinary run time for an electric cordless vacuum powered by batteries. This is still enough to clean most of a home that's average size, but not quite long enough to get every single spot (though a second run-through usually does the trick). This model has its own advantages, however: it's lighter and more maneuverable than earlier Dysons cordless models, and its vacuuming ability is noticeable superior on carpets with low pile.
4. iRobot Roomba 694
One of iRobot's most popular robot vacuums, the 694 is an affordable robot vacuum model that's an excellent choice for people who don't want to invest too much money on a robot. It's capable of sucking up all types of debris and sizes during our tests, and it often goes over the same areas many times to give a thorough clean. Its flat front side helps it to reach into corners and along the edges of walls which is a nice feature.
Its smart navigation system uses iAdapt to stay clear of obstacles and navigate your home, but it's not equipped with the mapping capability of more sophisticated models like our top selections and the i3+ EVO and the j7+ series. It may get stuck on cords for phones or furniture that is low and is often unable to supply power before returning to its base.
The Xiaomi Mi robot is superior in many ways to the Roomba 694 in that it has fewer components that require regular cleaning, comes with an allergen-trapping HEPA filtration system, incurs lower recurring cost, has more advanced automation capabilities and is better able to move its own. It also has a bigger dustbin and charges quicker.
The elegant RoboVac X8 is superior to the Roomba 694 for a variety of purposes, as it has a better battery life, has the ability to alter its suction power mode on its own and comes with physical boundary strips, and can be operated by your phone's voice assistant. It is also more robust, has a more powerful motor, and is more effective on floors with low pile and bare.
5. Samsung Jet Bot AI+
Samsung is a household name in home electronics. It's no surprise that they are also among the top producers of robot vacuums and mop. Jet Bot AI+ has a cutting-edge onboard technology for navigation and obstacle avoidance.
The app provides plenty of options to customize your robotic cleaner, including virtual barriers mopping water levels, behavior modification docking frequency settings and more. The app is simple to use and understand similar to other Samsung devices.
In our tests during our tests, the Jet Bot AI+ performed well on hard floors, and cleaned up 86 percent of dog hair (on carpet). However, it wasn't particularly well in avoiding larger objects, like cords and socks which was disappointing. It's also more expensive than the other models we've tested, and this could be a problem for some buyers.
The smart vacuum comes with an onboard camera that can be accessed through the app, and you can also create a live stream from the robot's cleaning station. This feature lets you check in on your pets or children while you're away. The filter and the dustbin can be cleaned for the quick and easy cleaning. The Jet Bot AI+ comes with an automatic clean station which helps to keep the bin clean and improves suction power.
6. Black & Decker Robot Vacuum
Contrary to other robotic vacuums that are specifically designed for carpets and hard floors, Black and Decker robots are specifically designed for hard floors. The robots have an extra wide cleaning path and dust bins that are 2X larger than the competition. This allows them to clean the area for a longer period of time. They also have two side sweepers that can be used to clean along edges and corners. The POWERSERIES Extreme model comes with AutoSense technology, which detects if it's picking up surface litter or embedded dirt and automatically adjusts the power level. It also has a smart app that lets you see the virtual map and manage the functions and schedules. You can also monitor the status of the vacuum and connect it to its dock for charging with the touch of a single button. The app allows you to customize the LED lights on the top of the vacuum to determine where it is focused or if it's stuck.
The app makes it possible to steer the robot vacuum cleaners manually, if necessary. My living room rug for example is darkly colored that could cause trouble for other robots. However the HRV 425BL kept moving across the border, without registering it as an incline. The ability to program a weekly cleaning schedule for each week is a time-saving advantage.
A robot vacuum will keep floors clean enough to reduce the frequency at which you'll need to manually vacuum. Pick a robot vacuum with good navigation, can clean stairs and corners, and that has a large bin that only needs to be cleaned out every now and then.
