Top Rated Robot Vacuums

A robot vacuum can keep floors clean enough to reduce the frequency with which you need to manually vacuum. Pick a robot vacuum that has good navigation, can clean stairs and corners, and that has a large bin that only needs to be emptying every so often.

There are models that mop and charge themselves which can be important for people with children or pets. Many of the best robot vacuums performers in our tests have excellent obstacle avoidance.

1. IRobot Roomba i3+ EVO

The i3+ EVO is identical to its sibling the i3 EVO. They differ only in the fact that the i3+ comes with self-emptying capabilities. That makes the i3+ an excellent option for those looking for a hands-off, fully automated cleaning experience but don't mind manually emptying their robot's dustbin when it fills up.

Both robots excel at picking up surface debris off carpets and hard floors and they are very good in moving around furniture and other obstacles. iAdapt navigation software creates smart maps of your home that aid the i3+ in its navigation and clean up efficiently. However unlike the i7+ or other top-rated robots we evaluated the i3+ does not have a feature for avoiding obstacles, so it may get stuck on things like socks or power cords and it may have trouble traversing transitions across surfaces, such as from hardwood to rug.

iRobot suggests that you clear areas that the i3+ EVO will vacuum before you use it, which includes clearing out any clutter or toys it might encounter. It's also a good idea to keep the bin and filter clean so they do not become blocked by dirt. If the i3+ EVO's internal bin is full or the battery is low it will return to its docking station, automatically emptying its trash into the station's dust bin, and then continues cleaning the area where it started. The battery's lifespan is around an hour and a half of continuous use. It takes 3 hours to charge.

2. Roomba from iRobot

The iRobot i7+ is an excellent model from iRobot's flagship line and is packed with the latest technology. It's self-charging and self-navigating. -- the most important feature of all -- it has a self vacuum near me-emptying dustbin that eliminates one of the primary sources of maintenance for any robot vacuum.

The Roomba i7+ can remember up to 10 floor plans and their names thanks to Imprint Smart Mapping, which lets it identify rooms to clean them more efficiently. It also works with iRobot Home to schedule cleaning robots for home tasks, and it can control your robot via the app or via voice.

In our testing the i7+ was quicker and more maneuverable than our top choice, the eufy RoboVac G30, and it picked up large pieces of pet hair from all surface kinds including carpeting. The main advantage it has over the Eufy is its self-emptying garbage bin that removes major maintenance sources and lowers the cost of recurring maintenance.

We were also amazed by the i7+'s compatibility Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant AI services, which we used to instruct the robot to begin, stop or pause its cleaning sessions and to move around the room and vacuum an area. Connecting the i7+ to these services was easy and straightforward using the iRobot Home app. Once connected we were able to use the i7+'s voice commands like "Hey Alexa, vacuum the master bedroom." The iRobot Home App also offers options for managing i7+ settings and evaluating the performance.

3. Dyson Cyclone V10

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

The V10 is powered with a Lithium-ion battery with 7 cells of energy, which produces power without fading for 60 minutes. The advanced whole-machine filter system traps allergens, then releases fresh air into your home. The specialized head uses rigid nylon bristles that penetrate deep into carpets and collect large dust or crumbs. It has three suction modes that can be adjusted to the specific task. 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 about 3.5 hours and offers easy access to two attachments and an wand clip. This is a significant improvement over older Dysons that require a lengthy charge and are difficult to store.

The V10's biggest drawback is its limited run time. The claims of its marketing that it can last up to 60 minutes of run time are a bit misleading as CR's tests have shown. This is an average and not a remarkable run time for the battery-powered cordless vacuum. This is still enough to get rid of the majority of an average-sized house however, it's not enough to get every single area (though a second run-through usually will suffice). This model has its own advantages however: it's lighter and more maneuverable than earlier Dysons cordless models and its ability to vacuum is noticeable superior on low-pile floor carpet.

4. iRobot Roomba 694"

The 694 is a standard robot vacuum that's a great option for those who don't have lots of money to invest in a robot. It was able to remove all kinds of debris in our tests and would often go over the same area multiple times to ensure a thorough clean. Its flat front end helps it reach into corners and along the edges of walls, which is a nice addition.

Its smart navigation system uses iAdapt to stay clear of obstacles and navigate your home, but it lacks the mapping capabilities of more sophisticated models like our top choices and the i3+ EVO and the j7+ series. It is prone to getting stuck on phone cords or furniture and will often run out of power before returning to its home base.

The Xiaomi Mi robot vacuum is superior to the Roomba 694 in most respects in that it has fewer parts that require regular maintenance, is fitted with an allergen-trapping HEPA filter, has lower costs for recurring maintenance, has more advanced automation capabilities and does a better job moving itself. It also has a larger dustbin and can charge faster.

The elegant RoboVac X8 is superior to the Roomba 694 for a variety of purposes, because it has a better battery life, can change its suction power mode on its own and has physical boundary strips, and can be operated by your phone's voice assistant. It is also more durable and has a more powerful motor, and is able to perform better on floors that are bare and low-pile carpet, while providing a greater variety of automation options.

5. Samsung Jet Bot AI+

Samsung is a well-known brand in home electronics. It's not surprising that they are also among the top producers of robot vacuums and mop. Jet Bot AI+ has an advanced onboard technology that allows for navigation and obstacle avoidance.

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

In our tests of the Jet Bot AI+ excelled on hard floors and handled dog hair (on carpet) very well, picking up 86% of it. It did not do well in avoiding taller objects like cords or socks. This was disappointing. It's also more expensive than the other models that we tested, and this could be a deterrent for certain shoppers.

The smart vacuum comes with an onboard camera that is accessible through the app, and you can also create a live stream from the robot's cleaning station. This feature lets you monitor your pets or the kids if you're away from home. The dustbin and the filter can be cleaned to ensure the quick and easy cleaning. The Jet Bot AI+ also comes with a clean station that's self-emptying to keep the robot's dustbin clear and maximizes suction power for each cleaning run.

6. Black & Decker Robot Vacuum

In contrast to other robotic vacuums that are made for hard floors and carpets, Black and Decker robots are specifically designed for hard floors. They have a wider cleaning path as well as a large dustbin that holds 2X more debris than competitors to keep the cleaning area clean for the longest time. In addition, they have two side sweepers to clean up around edges and in corners. The POWERSERIES model also comes with AutoSense which adjusts the power level according to whether it's collecting surface dirt or embedded dirt. The vacuum also comes with an app that lets you to view a virtual map, control functions, and set schedules. You can also check the status of the vacuum and connect it to the dock for charging at the touch of a single button. The app allows you to personalize the LED lights on the Top Rated Robot Vacuum of the vacuum with different colors, so you can clearly see what areas it's focusing on or where it's got stuck.

The app makes it possible to manually steer the robot, if necessary. My living room rug for instance, has a darkly-colored border that can trip up some other robots. However the HRV 425BL continued to move across the border, but it didn't register it as a cliff. The ability to program a weekly cleaning schedule for each week is a time-saving advantage.
