There are models that mop and charge themselves This is an advantage that is essential for families with children or pets. A majority of the top performers in our tests have great obstacles to avoid.

1. Roomba iRobot i3+ from iRobot EVO

The i3+ EVO is similar to its sibling the i3 EVO. They differ only in that the i3+ comes with self-emptying capabilities. This makes the i3+ a good option for those looking for an automated, hands-free cleaning experience but don't mind manually emptying their robot's dustbin when it is full.

Both robots do well picking up surface debris on carpets and hard floors and they're excellent at maneuvering around furniture and other obstacles. iAdapt navigation software makes smart maps of your home that aid the i3+ EVO to navigate and clean in a way that maximizes efficiency. The i3+ doesn't have obstacle avoidance capabilities like the i7+ or any other top 10 robot vacuum cleaner-rated robots we test. It could be stuck on power cords and socks and have difficulty navigating between different surfaces, like rug and hardwood.

iRobot recommends you clear out areas where the i3+ EVO will vacuum prior to when you use it, and include putting away any clutter or toys it might encounter. It's also a good idea to keep the dustbin and filter clean so they don't become clogged with dirt. If the i3+ EVO's internal bin is full or its battery is low it will return to its docking station and automatically empties its dirt into the station's external dustbin and continues cleaning the area where it began. The i3+ EVO's batteries last for approximately an hour and a half of continuous use, and it takes about three hours to fully recharge.

2. IRobot Roomba i7+

The iRobot i7+ is an excellent model from iRobot's flagship line and comes with the latest features. It is self-charging and self-navigating. But the most important feature is its self-emptying bin. This removes the need for routine maintenance.

The Roomba I7+ can better map rooms with Imprint Smart Mapping. It also works with iRobot Home to schedule cleaning tasks, and it can control your robot via the app or via voice.

The i7+ is quicker and more maneuverable in our tests compared to the eufy RoboVac G30. It also removed large pet hair pieces from all surfaces including carpeting. Its greatest advantage over the Eufy is the self-emptying bin that eliminates major sources of maintenance and reduces recurring cost.

We were also impressed by the i7+'s compatibility Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant AI services that we used to instruct the robot to begin, stop or pause its cleaning session and move around the room and vacuum the area. Connecting the i7+ to these services was simple and easy with the iRobot Home app. When 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 the performance.

3. Dyson Cyclone V10

This tiny Dyson model is an all-sports car in a sea of vacuums powered by cordless that resemble minivans and buses. It has the power and features to replace a stand-up vacuum in the majority of households and can fit nicely on a coffee table or on shelves where you can wave it around like the magic wand.

The V10 is powered by a 7-cell energy-dense lithium-ion battery which produces fade-free power for 60 minutes. The advanced whole-machine filtering system captures allergens, and then releases fresh air into your home. Its specialized head uses stiff nylon bristles that penetrate deep into carpets and pick up large particles or fine dust. It comes with three suction modes to meet the task being performed. It quickly converts from floor vac to handheld vacuum and back.

The model also comes with docks that charge to 100% in around 3.5 hours, and gives users easy access to two attachments as well as an wand clip. This is a major improvement over older Dysons that require a lengthy charge and are difficult to store.

The biggest issue with the V10 is its sluggish run time. The tests conducted by CR show that its claims to run up to 60 minutes are a bit misleading. This is a typical, not an exceptional, time to run an electric cordless vacuum powered by batteries. This is still enough to vacuum the majority of a home that's average size however, it's not enough to get every single spot (though a second run-through usually can be effective). This model has its own advantages, however: it's lighter and more maneuverable than earlier Dysons cordless models and its ability to vacuum is significantly better on low-pile floor carpet.

4. iRobot Roomba 694

The 694 is a standard robot vacuum cleaner sale vacuum that's a great option for those who don't have lots of money to spend on an expensive robot. It's capable of sucking up a variety of types of debris and sizes during our tests, and frequently goes over the same areas many times to ensure a thorough clean. Its flat front end helps it to reach into corners and along the edges of walls and walls, which is a nice touch.

Its intelligent navigation system makes use of iAdapt technology to steer clear of obstacles and guide you through your home. However, it lacks the capabilities for mapping of more advanced models, including our top picks, the i3+EVO and J7+ Series. It may get stuck on phone cords or furniture and often runs out of power before returning to its base.

The Xiaomi Mi robot is superior in many ways over the Roomba 694, as it has fewer parts that require regular cleaning, is equipped with an allergen-trapping HEPA filtration system, incurs lower recurring cost, has more advanced automation capabilities and is better able to move itself. It also has a larger dustbin and is charged faster.

The sleek RoboVac X8 has a superior battery longevity than the Roomba 694. It also has physical boundaries strips and can be controlled by the voice assistant on your smartphone.

The app offers a variety of options for customizing your robotic cleaner. This includes mopping levels, virtual barriers and behavior modifications docking frequency settings, and many more. The app is simple to learn and use similar to other Samsung devices.

In our tests during our tests, the Jet Bot AI+ performed well on hard floors, and removed 86 percent of dog hair (on carpet). However, it did not do particularly well in avoiding higher-up objects like cords or socks which was disappointing. It's also more expensive than the other models we've tested and this could be a problem 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 budget robot vacuum's area of cleaning. This feature lets you check in on pets or children when you're away from home. The dustbin and filter are washable for quick, easy cleanup. The Jet Bot AI+ comes with self-emptying clean stations, which helps to keep the bin clean and improves suction power.

6. Black & Decker Robot Vacuum

Unlike other robotic vacuums, that are made for hard floors and carpets, Black and Decker robots are designed specifically 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 come with two side sweepers that can be used to clean around corners and edges. The POWERSERIES model also comes with AutoSense which adjusts the power level depending on whether it's picking up dirt that is on the surface or embedded.
