Best Rated Robot Vacuum and Mop

Eufy's top-rated robot mop and vacuum takes a lot of the hands-off work out of keeping your floors clean. It can refill its own water tank and empty its tower bin. It also has the ability to change its dust bag.

More advanced models are able to map your home and note furniture placement. They also can detect dangers and help you avoid them, like loose charging cables or stray socks.

Object Avoidance

Object avoidance allows your robot to avoid hitting objects such as cords, toys and even clothes that might get caught in the vacuum. These features are especially important if you have children or pets that may leave objects on the floor for your robot to search.

Based on the model you select depending on the model you select, your robot could have several sensor options to help it navigate around obstacles. Some of the most sought-after include crossed IR sensor beams that are a focused infrared light that scan across the room for things like furniture legs or door frames. This technology is widely used by a variety of robots on the market, and you can also find it in flagship models that are priced higher than others.

Other object avoidance technology that is available in higher-end robotics is 3D Structured Light which uses cameras and a crossed IR sensor to map the environment, and detect obstacles. Time of Flight (ToF) sensors that measure and emit the amount of time that it takes for the light to reflect off of an object, to determine its distance, is also available. While these are less common, they can be beneficial to your robot if you need additional security knowing that it will avoid getting caught up in cords or socks when cleaning.

Apart from picking up dust and debris from hard floors, most of the best-rated robots can sweep your floors as well. Some robots come with own water tanks which allow them to clean up messes and spills. You'll need to empty the robot's onboard dust bin and clean its cameras and sensors between cleaning sessions, but these tasks will not take a lot of your time.

Mapping

Robot vacuums need to have mapping capabilities. This allows them to navigate your home without hitting things like walls. Without mapping, they could be tripped over by furniture, cords, or pet toys and end up taking less space from your space. Using sensors, most robots map your home to track any obstacles and help them navigate around them. This allows them to sweep the entire floor with fewer passes, saving you time. Many of the top rated robot vacuums also have this feature to create no-go zones permitting you to define rooms that you don't want the robot to enter.

Robots that have a built-in LIDAR system make use of this technology to create a map of your home quickly and efficiently. During our tests with the Eufy Clean robot made use of this feature to separate my room into different areas and clean each one independently this was a significant improvement over the lesser models we tested that used an in-front bump sensor. This was a more precise method to navigate my home, and it was easy to control via the app on the device.

While no robot vacuum can climb stairs yet, the majority of the top-rated models have good obstacle avoidance and mapping features. These tools help them to remove dirt from carpets with low pile and hard floors, and to avoid falling down the steps. Some tools are equipped with sensors to make sure they don't fall over the edge of the stairs. Some have boundaries to keep them out.

Certain robots have a huge tower base which holds the dirt they collect, minimizing the amount of dust and allergens that are released into your home. The bases can be left for weeks or even months without having to be cleaned which is particularly beneficial for those who suffer from allergies. Some models also have self-emptying systems that let you take out the dust bins without needing to open and close them.

Wi-Fi enabled

Some robot vacuum cleaner best vacuums make use of Wi-Fi to connect with their apps which allows users to control them with your smartphone instead of (or in addition to) a physical remote. These models are more expensive however, they can save time because they can schedule cleaning times every day, weekly, or monthly. These models also allow you to edit floor maps and save them, as well as provide alternative cleaning patterns.

Dual sensors are utilized by the most modern robot vacuums. They combine with a LIDAR mapping system with a structured-light sensor that can detect and avoid objects, even if they're hidden under furniture or power cables. These features allow your robot to maneuver into narrow spaces like the nook under the kitchen cabinets or beneath sofas, where other robots have difficulty. They also are faster to navigate around obstacles, have longer runtimes, and bigger dust bins. This makes them ideal for large homes compared to basic robots.

The top rated robot vacuums tend to be quick, efficient and effective, picking up most kinds of floor debris, such as pet hair, kitty litter, and other dirt. They can also be quite quiet making them a good option for homes with children and pets. Many of the robot vacuum owners we've spoken with say that they appreciate the ease of having their floor cleaned with minimal effort. This is particularly true when they are used regularly. Robots can last just as long as traditional vacuum cleaners, provided they have the right maintenance (cleaning rotating brushes and keeping an eye on replacement parts). PCWorld offers a helpful guide that outlines some essential tips to keep your machine running efficiently for many long time to come.

Dust Bags Larger

Although a robot vacuum may not be as efficient as an upright or canister model, it's great in picking up dust and other debris that regular vacuuming leaves behind. It can also be used for quick touch-ups on floors, and it can also navigate through cords and other obstacles that are common to household use. If you don't want to perform the deep cleaning yourself, a robot cleaner can be set to send it out to scour your floors on a regular schedule.

The top-rated robot vacuums have large, easy to empty dust bags that can store more dirt than one room. This will save time and money through bags that can be replaced. This feature is available on many models, including our top model which is the Ecovacs T30S Combo. This all-in one robovac is a top-performing robovac that has a self-emptying bin. It also comes with mopping functions and effective navigation. This is a close race between the iRobot Roomba Combo j9+ and this model, which utilizes intelligent mapping and avoidance technology. This robovac has more capacity, but it is a bit more expensive.

The two models differ in the way they handle long hair, which can get caught in the rollers of a few robots. The best robotic mop and vacuum-performing models include the Roborock Q5 Max+ and SwitchBot K10S Plus, both have superb hair pickup and tangle avoidance scores along with fantastic path planning and near perfect auto empty results. The eufy and Shark Matrix Plus are also excellent options with decent hair pickup and tangle avoiding, but not as much path planning or auto empty.

The newest robots have sensors that can spot dirt and other debris in the carpet, and are better at picking up hairs that have fallen off of pets. Some robots have a mopping mode that makes use of the reservoir of water to get rid of stuck-on messes and spills. This feature is a must for families with pets as well as children.

Maintenance

A robot vacuum can be a great help in keeping up with your home. While no robot can replace an upright or a canister vacuum for deep cleaning, the top models are rated to remove pet hair, lint and other dirt on hard floors and low-pile carpets and pick up more than you can using a vacuum. They also have navigation features that prevent them from getting caught on power cords or rug fringe and are able to glide effortlessly under furniture.

Based on the model, a top-rated robotic vacuum is also able to run multiple times a day or may allow you to watch it in action using an app. These devices are convenient but they also get clogged and require regular maintenance. This means emptying the onboard dust bin (or in some cases, the base's larger bin), checking brushes for tangled fur and regularly washing the filters and drying them in accordance with the manufacturer.

Emily Rairdin is a vacuum expert and store owner apprentice from University Vacuum + Sewing. She believes that a robotic vacuum can last for three to five years with proper care. She suggests emptying the bin and brush roll often cutting out hair that gets caught in the brushes, and then regularly rinsing and drying the filter if your robot is also a mop. It's a good idea to clean the charging contacts and sensors on the robot or dock with a soft, clean cloth every now and again. Then simply recharge and refill the robot as needed for your next cleaning session.
