If you've ever thought of buy a robot vacuum now is the time. CNET's top models are on sale this Black Friday and Cyber Monday, with savings of up to 57%.

The Roborock Q7 Max offers strong pressure and smart mapping, with apps-based no-go zones, and its 180-minute runtime is awe-inspiring. It also self-empties and automatically refills its water tank.

1. Roomba j7+ from iRobot

The Roomba J7+, iRobot's most intelligent robot to date, is the Roomba j7+. Its greatest breakthrough is its camera-based obstacle detection system that utilizes built-in AI to detect objects such as charging cords, shoes, and the pet waste that the majority of other robots cannot avoid (and often plough right through). It's also the first robot to automatically send you a picture of any object it encounters so you can tell it to avoid it in the future.

The Combo j7+ is also the most effective mop-bot we've ever tested, picking up spills and dirt with ease and leaving no trace that it was there. The iRobot app makes it easy to control. It can schedule cleanings and even create Keep Out Zones so that it doesn't vacuum in areas you don’t want. It's compatible with Alexa or Google Assistant so you can start and stop it by voice.

Its design is also a step above the competition, with a sleek top piece that looks more like a toy robot than a loud, obnoxious one. Clean Base's Automatic Dirt Disposal System is also Self cleaning vacuum Cleaner-emptying which will cut down your cleaning time.

In our tests, we found that the j7+ swiftly eliminated dirt, dust and hair from pets. The counter-rotating rubber brushes kept the debris in place rather than scattering it around the floor. It even could take small gravel and sand which other robots aren't able to do. It did all without getting caught up in our pet's hair.

While it's not quite as smart as the $1,217 iRobot Roomba s9+ Auto-Emptying Vacuum, which isn't able to clean stairs The J7+ is a solid option for those who need mopping and a vac in their home. It's not too expensive, and the iRobot app makes it very user-friendly to use.

The iRobot Home App is easy to use, but we found it less reliable as other robotic vacuum cleaner sale cleaner apps. It can take a while to download updates, and sometimes it's difficult to tell whether the update actually functioning until you've seen it in the action.

2. Roborock Q5+

If you want a robot vacuum cleaner that can do more than simply clean your floors then a hybrid is the best choice. These bots are equipped with a water tank, so they can vacuum and mop at the same time. They also come with a variety of additional features, such as smart mapping, small obstacle avoidance and even the ability to dry and wash mopping pads. The negative is that they tend to be expensive at retail, but during Black Friday and Cyber Monday they usually drop in price.

Roborock has some of our most loved robot vacuums and the Q5+ isn't an exception. It's their most affordable auto-empty model. While it lacks some of the premium features that are found on more expensive models (like no-go zones and multi-story memory) it's still an excellent option if you're willing sacrifice a little to save a few hundred dollars.

The Q5+ is notably gentle around obstacles like tables and walls and walls, which makes it an excellent option for homes with a lot of furniture. It's also very thorough in cleaning up dust bunnies. This is a area where many robot vacuums that are less expensive fall short. The Q5+'s navigation is superb, with only a few mishaps along walls and in corners.

The Q5+, as with other Roborock products can be controlled via a few buttons on the device, or via the Roborock App. The app lets you begin and stop cleanings and schedules, as well as create virtual barriers and no-go zones, and modify your home map, or change the labels of rooms.

If you select the Q5+ it includes a new auto emptying dock that is designed to make this robot vacuum black friday easier to maintain. Installing it requires a screwdriver, however, once it's in place it can be accomplished without difficulty. It also comes with an impressive LCD display that is great to have when setting up schedules or adjusting settings. This feature isn't essential for most people however it can help you effectively keep track of the robot's maintenance schedules.

3. Narwal Freo X Ultra

The Freo X Ultra is a well-rounded robot vacuum and mop that's impressively intelligent in its mopping and vacuuming capabilities. Its design is one of the best self cleaning robot vacuum in the industry, but it's expensive.

Its base station looks good and is hidden when it's not in use, and the dimensions are quite small. But the station's biggest selling point is how it automates numerous tasks and functions that other robots leave up to you. It can store clean and dirty water, it electrolyzes and heats the water (which the majority of other robots require you to do), empties the dustbin after vacuuming, and helps keep your robot fully charged and clean.

And its vacuuming is impressive and efficient, too. It's the only robovac that I've tried that does an excellent job of removing debris from bare floors. It's also not as loud as the costly Roomba 900 series or iRobot 980.

However, the Freo X Ultra has its faults, especially in terms of navigation. The laser and LiDAR sensors aren't as reliable and reliable as other robovacs, which means it can get stuck or confused in certain areas or rooms of your home. It's not able navigate stairs as well as some competitors, for instance, and it doesn't have an dock that allows the user to set up an exclusive cleaning zone for plush carpets.

Although it doesn't provide as much in the way of cleaning-related options in its app or as many in-app shortcuts like other robovacs the Freo X Ultra is still an excellent choice for those looking for an all-around great robot vacuum and mop that's worth the higher price price.

However, if you're looking to save some cash or simply don't care about the limitations of this robot There are many other options available with a wide range of eufy models priced substantially less. The Eufy Qrevo Curv, for example is less expensive and offers the same experience in the app, but with more features like stairs, a fully-function dock, and better overall performance when vacuuming floors as well as high- and low-pile carpets.

4. Eufy RoboVac G30

eufy, an Anker company has a proven track record of producing robot vacuums that strike the right balance between performance, features and price. The G30 Hybrid offers a powerful cleaning power for carpets and hard flooring, and mopping functions for a low cost. It's easy to setup by snapping one of the side brushes on, turn it on and plug in the charging dock. The app walks you through several steps to connect to your Wi-Fi, and the G30 is ready to go. It is recommended to keep the dock near an outlet for power and enough space for it to move around, however.

The G30 is tiny, 2.85 inches tall to be exact, which means it will fit under many sofas and other furniture with low clearance. Its design is more subtle compared to some rival models. It has a sleek black finish with three physical buttons for Auto Cleaning start/pause (which scrubs an area in a spiral fashion over two minutes) Recharge, and Spot Cleaner. You can also link the G30 to Amazon Alexa or Google Home to do unscheduled cleaning with voice commands.

The way that the G30 cleans is what separates it from its rivals. It uses an integrated map to make an image of the unmovable items that are in its path. It keeps track of what it has already cleaned and what it is unable to access. If it requires a recharge, it will automatically return to its base and resumes cleaning from where it left off.

The elegant G30 has some flaws. The iRobot Roomba 675 is more constructed, has lower recurring costs, charges more quickly and has the same battery life. It also offers better performance on floors with no carpet and carpets with low pile. It also has a bigger dust bin that doesn't need to be emptied as often and comes with an array of boundaries to keep it away from certain areas. The G30 is cheaper and easier to maintain. Its smaller size means that it doesn't need to be emptied as often, and it has less trouble with bulky materials like cereal.
