The Roborock Q7 Max offers strong pressure and smart mapping using app-based no-go zones, and its 180-minute runtime is impressive. It also self-empties itself and automatically refills its water tank.

1. Roomba j7+ iRobot from iRobot.

The Roomba J7+, IRobot's smartest robot vacuum hoover to date, is the Roomba j7+. Its greatest breakthrough is its camera-based obstacle detection system that utilizes built-in AI to recognize objects like charging cords, shoes, and the dreaded pet waste that the majority of other robots cannot avoid (and often plough right through). It's the first robot to provide you with images of objects that it encounters, so that you can tell the robot to avoid it.

The Combo J7+ is the best robot vacuum for large house robot mop that we have ever tested. It removes dirt and spills quickly leaving no trace it was there. It's simple to control via the iRobot Home app which lets you schedule cleaning and create Keep Out Zones so that it doesn't vacuum areas you don't want it to. It's compatible with Alexa or Google Assistant so you can start it and stop it by voice.

The design is also more appealing than the other models. It features a sleek, high-end piece that resembles a toy rather than a loud and obnoxious robot. And the Clean Base Automatic Dirt Disposal System automatically empty and is ideal to reduce the time spent cleaning.

In our tests, we discovered that the j7+ was quick to took away dirt, dust, and pet hair. The counter-rotating rubber brushes held the debris in place, rather than scattering it around the floor. It was able to collect small pieces of gravel, sand, and even a tiny bit of grit. Most robots can't do this. It did all this without getting caught in our pet's hair.

The j7+, although not as smart as the Roomba S9, which costs $1,217+ Self-Emptying Vacuum Robot from iRobot, and it cannot clean the stairs, is an option for those who require both a vacuum and a mop. It's not expensive and the iRobot App makes it simple to use.

The iRobot Home App is easy to use but we found it less reliable than other robotic cleaner apps. It can take a while to download updates and it is sometimes difficult to know if they are functioning until you actually witness them in action.

2. Roborock Q5+

When you're looking for a vacuum that does more than just clean floors, your best robot vacuum for tile floors choice is probably hybrid. These robots come with a water tank, so they can mop and vacuum simultaneously. They also come with a variety of additional features, such as smart mapping, small obstacle avoidance, and even the capability to wash and dry mopping pads. The disadvantage is that they can be pricey at full retail, but on Black Friday and Cyber Monday they often drop in price.

Roborock is the manufacturer of several of our top robotic vacuums and the Q5+ doesn't disappoint. It's their most affordable auto-empty model. While it's not equipped with some of the features that are found on more expensive models (like no-go zones and multi-story memory) it's a great option if you're willing to sacrifice a bit to save some hundred dollars.

The Q5+ is notably gentle around obstacles such as table legs and walls which makes it a great option for homes with a lot of furniture. It is also very thorough in cleaning dust bunnies. This is an area that many cheaper robot vacuums aren't able to meet. The Q5+'s navigation is top-quality, with a few misses along walls or in corners.

The Q5+, like other Roborock products can be controlled with only a few buttons on your device or via the Roborock App. The app lets you start and stop cleaning. You can also set up schedules, create virtual barrier and no-go areas or modify your home map or re-label rooms.

If you decide to go with the Q5+, it comes with a brand new auto-empty dock that's specifically designed to make this robot simple to maintain. It requires a screwdriver for install, but once it's in place, emptying the bin is easy. It also has an impressive LCD display which is great to have when you're setting up schedules or altering settings. This feature isn't necessary for most people but it can help you to keep the robot's maintenance schedules.

3. Narwal Freo X Ultra

The Freo X Ultra robot vacuum and mop is a smart vacuum cleaner, well-rounded vacuum and mop. It's capable of vacuuming and mopping. Its design and function are some of the top available - but it's also pricey.

It is a relatively small base station that looks stunning and can be hidden when not in use. But the station's main selling factor is its ability to automate many tasks and functions that other robots leave up to you. It can store clean and dirty water, electrolyzes and heats the water (which many other robots require you to do) and empty the dust bin after vacuuming, and ensures that your robot vacuum cleaner charged and clean.

And its vacuuming is impressive, too. It's the only robovac that I've used that has done a good job picking up the dust from floors with no. And it's not as loud as the costly Roomba 900 series or iRobot 980.

The Freo X Ultra is not without faults, particularly when it comes navigation. Its laser sensors and LiDAR sensors aren’t as reliable as other robotvacs. This means it can get stuck or get confused in certain corners or rooms in the house. It's not able navigate stairs as well as some competitors, either and it doesn't have a dock that lets you to create an exclusive cleaning zone for plush carpets.

Although it doesn't provide as many in terms of cleaning configuration options in its app, or as many shortcuts within the app like other robovacs the Freo X Ultra is still a top choice for those looking for an all-around great mop and vacuum cleaner that's worth the premium price price.

If you're looking to cut costs or don't mind the limitations of the robot, there are many other options available. A lot of eufy models are considerably less. The eufy Qrevo Curv, for example is less expensive and provides a similar in-app experience with additional features such as the ability to climb stairs, a full-function dock, and better overall performance when vacuuming floors as well as high and low-pile carpets.

4. eufy RoboVac G30

eufy is an Anker company with a long history of creating robot vacuums with the right balance of features, performance and price. The G30 Hybrid offers a powerful cleaning power for hard and carpeted floors, as well as mopping functions at a reasonable price. It's simple to set up, just snap one of the side brushes on, turn it on, and plug it into the charging dock. The app will guide you through the steps needed to connect your G30 to your Wi-Fi. It is recommended to keep the dock close to an outlet for power and ample space for it to move around but.

The G30 is a compact device that measures 2.85 inches in height, which means it is able to fit under most couches and low-clearance pieces of furniture. The design is less flashy than some of the rival models, with sleek black finishes and three buttons that are physical: Auto Cleaning start/pause, Recharge and Spot Clean (which scrubs a space in an arc for two minutes). You can also link the G30 to Amazon Alexa or Google Home to do unscheduled cleaning with voice commands.

The main characteristic that sets the G30 apart from its competitors is the method it cleans. It uses an integrated map to draw a picture of the immovable objects in its path. It can remember the items it has cleaned and what it is unable to access. It will return to the base to recharge and then continues cleaning where it left off.

The sleek G30 isn't without faults, though. The iRobot Roomba is built better and has lower cost of operation. It charges faster, has the same battery life and is more effective on bare carpet or floors with low pile. It has a larger dust bin, which doesn't require more emptying. It also has boundaries that prevent it from certain areas. The G30 on the other hand, is more affordable and is much more manageable to maintain. Its smaller canister means it doesn't need to be empty as often, and it has less trouble with bulky materials such as cereal.
