Top Rated Robot Vacuums

A robot vacuum cleaner review vacuum will keep your floors tidy enough to decrease the frequency of hoovering manually. Pick a robot vacuum with good navigation, has the ability to clean stairs and corners and also has large bins that will need to be emptying every so often.

There are also models that can mop and charge on their own, a feature that may be important for people with pets or kids. The top performers in our tests have decent obstacle avoidance.

1. Roomba iRobot i3+ from iRobot EVO

The i3+ EVO and its i3 EVO sibling, the i3 EVO are both identical robots that differ only in that the i3+ has self-emptying features. This makes the i3+ a good option for those looking for a hands-off, fully automated cleaning experience, but don't mind manually emptying their robot's dustbin as it gets full.

Both robots excel at cleaning up surface debris from hard floors and carpets, and they're excellent at moving around furniture and other obstacles. iAdapt navigation software creates a smart map of your home to help the i3+ navigate and clean up efficiently. However, unlike the i7+ or other top highest rated robot vacuum robots we test the i3+ does not have obstacle-avoidance capabilities and therefore it could get stuck on things such as power cords or socks, and it can have difficulty traversing transitions across surfaces, such as from 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 clutter it may encounter. Also, keep the filters and dust bin free of dirt to prevent them from getting blocked. When the i3+ EVO's internal bin is empty or the battery is depleted, it returns to the docking station, and it automatically takes the dirt out of the docking station's external dustbin. It then continues cleaning from where it left off. The i3+ EVO's battery can last for approximately an hour and a half of continuous use, and it takes around three hours to recharge.

2. iRobot i7+ Roomba

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

The Roomba i7+ can keep up to 10 floor plans and their names with Imprint Smart Mapping, a system that lets it identify rooms to clean them more efficiently. It also integrates with the iRobot Home app to let you schedule cleaning tasks and control your robot with voice or through the app.

The i7+ is more efficient and more maneuverable in our tests than the eufy RoboVac G30. It also cleaned large pet hair pieces from any surface, including carpeting. The biggest benefit over the eufy it self-empties its dust bin, which removes a major source of maintenance and cuts down on the cost of maintenance.

We were also amazed by the i7+'s integration with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant AI services which we used to instruct the robot Vacuum Cleaner Top 10 to start, stop or pause its cleaning session and move around the room and sweep the area. The iRobot Home App made it easy to connect the i7+ to these services. After being connected, to speak commands to the i7+ for example "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 a sports car in a sea of vacuums powered by cordless that resemble minivans and buses. It is powerful enough to replace a stand-up vacuum in most homes, but also small enough to fit on a bookcase or coffee table.

The V10 is powered by a 7-cell energy-dense Lithium-ion battery, which produces power that is not fading for 60 minutes. Its advanced whole-machine filtration system traps allergens and releases cleaner air back into your home. The cleaning head is specially designed to drive bristles made of nylon that are stiff into carpet to suck up large crumbs and fine dust. It has three suction modes that can be adapted to the specific task. It can quickly change from floor vacuum to handheld vacuum, and vice versa.

This model also has docks that charge to 100% in about 3.5 hours and provides easy access to two attachments as well as an clip for a wand. This is a major improvement over older Dysons that require a long charge and are difficult to store.

The biggest issue with the V10 is its limited run time. The claims of its marketing that it can last up to 60 minutes of run time are misleading as CR's tests have shown. This is a common battery-powered cordless vacuum's running time. This is enough time to sweep a typical-sized home however, it's not enough time to reach every spot. (A second time generally works). This model has its own advantages however: it's light and more mobile than previous Dysons cordless models, and its vacuuming ability is noticeable superior on carpets with low pile.

4. iRobot Roomba 694"

The 694 is a basic robotic vacuum that's a great option for those who don't have a lot of money to invest in an expensive robot. It's capable of sucking up all debris types and sizes during our tests, and it frequently goes over the same areas many times to ensure a thorough clean. Its flat front allows it to reach corners and edges of walls.

Its smart navigation system uses iAdapt technology to stay clear of obstacles and guide you through your home. However, it isn't equipped with the mapping capabilities of more advanced models, including our top picks, i3+EVO and 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 to the Roomba 694 in that it has less parts that require regular cleaning, is outfitted with an allergen-trapping HEPA filtration system, incurs lower costs for recurring expenses, is more sophisticated in its automation capabilities and is able to better maneuver itself. It also has a larger dustbin and is charged faster.

The eufy RoboVac X8 has a superior battery longevity than the Roomba 694. It also has physical boundaries and can be controlled using the voice assistant on your smartphone. It also feels better-built, has a more powerful motor, and works better on bare floors and carpets with a low pile, as well as providing a greater variety of features for automation.

The app gives you plenty of options to customize your robotic cleaner, including virtual barriers mopping water levels, behavior customization docking frequency settings and more. The app is easy to use and understand, just like other Samsung devices.

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

The app allows you to access the camera onboard of the smart vacuum. You can also set up live streaming from the robot's cleaning area. This feature allows you to keep track of your pets or children when you're away from home. The filter and the dustbin can be washed for a quick, painless clean-up. The Jet Bot AI+ comes with self-emptying clean stations, which helps to keep the bin clean and maximizes suction power.

Contrary to other robotic vacuums which are designed for both carpets and hard floors, Black and Decker robots are designed specifically for hard floors. The robots have an extra-wide cleaning path and dust bins that are 2X bigger than the competitors. This lets them clean the area for longer. They also have two side sweepers to clean around corners and edges.
