Top Rated Robot Vacuums

A robot vacuum is able to keep floors clean enough to decrease the frequency you have to manually vacuum. Choose one that has excellent navigation, is able to clean corners and stairs, and has a large dust bin that requires emptying only once in a while.

There are models that mop and charge themselves this is an option important for families with children or pets. The top performers in our tests have good obstacle avoidance.

1. IRobot Roomba i3+ EVO

The i3+ EVO is similar to its sibling, the i3 EVO. They differ only in that the i3+ comes with self-emptying capabilities. That makes the i3+ an excellent option for those who want a hands-off, fully automated cleaning experience, but aren't afraid of having to empty their dust bin manually when it is full.

Both robots excel at picking up surface debris off carpets and hard floors and they are very good in getting around furniture and other obstacles. iAdapt navigation software makes smart maps of your home that aid the i3+ EVO navigate and clean in a way that maximizes efficiency. However, unlike the i7+ or other top-rated robots that we tested the i3+ does not have obstacle-avoidance capabilities and therefore it could be stuck on things like socks or power cords, and it may have trouble navigating across surface transitions, such as from hardwood to carpet.

iRobot suggests that you clean the area around the i3+ EVO vacuums before using it. This includes putting away any toys or other clutter it might come across. It's also a good idea to keep the dustbin and filter clean so that they don't become clogged with dirt. If the i3+ EVO's internal bin is full or its battery is empty it will return to its docking station, automatically empties its trash into the station's external dustbin, and then continues cleaning where it started. The i3+ EVO's battery can last for about an hour and a half continuous use. It takes around three hours to recharge.

2. IRobot Roomba i7+

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

In our testing the i7+ was faster and more maneuverable than our runner-up which was the eufy RoboVac G30, and it took 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, which removes major maintenance sources and reduces recurring cost.

We were also awestruck by the i7+'s compatibility with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant AI services. We utilized these services to instruct the robot vacuum hoover to start, stop, or pause cleaning sessions, as well as to move around the room, and vacuum a particular area. The process of connecting the i7+ to these services was easy and straightforward through the iRobot Home app. After being connected, to speak commands to the i7+, like "Hey Alexa vacuum the master bedroom." The iRobot Home app also provides options for managing the i7+'s settings and monitoring its performance.

3. Dyson Cyclone V10

The main drawback of the V10 is its limited run time. The claims of its marketing that it has up to 60 minutes of run time are not true as CR's tests have shown. This is a typical, not an exceptional, time to run the battery-powered cordless vacuum. It's still enough time to vacuum the majority of a typical-sized home but not long enough to get every single area (though an additional run-through often will suffice). However, this model doesn't have its benefits It's lighter and more mobile than the older cordless Dysons, and its vacuuming efficiency is superior on carpets with a low pile.
