The Reason Why Adding A Top Robot Vacuum To Your Life Can Make All The Difference
Top Robot Vacuums and Mop Combos
While robots can’t substitute for a conventional vacuum for picking up ground-in debris such as metal screws or chunks of orzo pasta, they are excellent in sweeping dust, crumbs and hair from pets. The best models are equipped with intelligent navigation systems, which helps them avoid cords, toys and other household obstacles.
1. iRobot Roomba i3+ EVO
The iRobot Roomba i3+ is an excellent robot vacuum that has many smart features that make it easier to maintain. The automatic bin emptying feature is among the best features we’ve ever seen in a robot vacuum. It is a great choice for both carpets and hard floors. It’s also easy to set up and operate and the app will guide you through the process step-by-step. Another feature that is impressive is the ability to go back to the spot where it left off in our tests–it did this for 77 minutes on one cleaning before running out of battery.
In contrast to other robovacs we’ve evaluated, the i3+ EVO has a self-emptying bin that dumps debris into an external dirt compartment on its charging base when it’s full. The i3+ EVO is able to prevent overfilling by a self-emptying bin. However it must be manually empty at the end of each cleaning session. The i3+ EVO’s built-in dust bin holds 2.4L of trash that is enough to get it through four or five cleaning sessions before you need to replace it.
Like the i7, this model uses state-of-the-art floor tracking sensors to create maps and navigate neat rows. However the i3+ EVO only stores one map, whereas the i7 has the capacity to store multiple maps. The i7 is also able to use its map to create no-go zones as well as virtual barriers, however the i3+ EVO is not able to do this.
While the i3+ EVO is more effective in picking up dirt and debris from surfaces than the other robovacs we looked at however, it’s not the most effective when it comes to cleaning edges and corners. It’s also less gentle on furniture, despite being fairly quiet. It pulled chairs away from walls, and made some collisions with the sides of our bed, and became stuck on cords and toys during testing.
2. Black & Decker Pro Q5
Whether you’re expanding your collection of robot vacuums, or are just starting out with the Q5 Pro is a great choice. It packs a lot of power, smart navigation, and handy automation into a sleek design at an affordable price. It’s the most affordable model for the money available at the moment and even beats some Roborock models that are much more expensive in a variety of ways.
This robot is great in cleaning floors that are not clean and its avoidance technology helps it to steer away from furniture legs or other obstacles. It also does well on carpets and gets an excellent score in our navigation tests. It’s only downside is that it’s more noisy than other models and doesn’t do as well in our satisfaction of the owner and predicted reliability tests.
The Q5 Pro has a very large 770ml dust bin that means you won’t have to empty it as often as some other 2-in-1 robots. Its 240-minute runtime is quite generous in comparison to other robots we’ve examined. When the battery is low, it automatically returns to its dock where it recharges before resuming cleaning from where it began. You can manage the Q5 Pro using the app or voice commands with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
This is the first robot we’ve seen that has 3D mapping. That, combined with some other innovations, makes it perform exceptionally well in our mopping and vacuuming tests. You can schedule cleaning times, set no-go zones, and view the battery’s condition as well as other things. The app is easy to use, but it isn’t compatible with Apple HomeKit. The feature is scheduled to be added in 2025. As of the beginning of November, Apple has updated a footnote on its website to indicate that this feature is delayed until 2025. Some other robots won’t work with HomeKit However, many of them work with Siri Shortcuts.
3. TP-Link Tapo RV30 Plus

You can also create virtual walls and no-go zones to prevent the RV30 Plus from entering areas you don’t want it to be in.
4. Eufy iMop
The Eufy iMop robot vacuum and mop is among the best full-featured robots for flooring made of hard wood.

The spot cleaning mode lets you to clean a certain area on your floor. And it can be manually programmed to follow a specific path, which is useful in narrow hallways or stairs. It did a good job of cleaning carpets during our carpet cleaning test, but it struggled with thicker pile carpets and rug. It is able to lift the mop pad automatically when it comes in contact with carpet. This is a fantastic feature for those who wish to save the time of mopping their carpets.
The iMop has an onboard dust bin and an water tank that is filled and refilled at the end of each cleaning session. The dust bin on board can hold up to 2.5 liters of debris and is only required to be emptying it every couple of cleaning cycles. The water tank can handle half a dozen mopping sessions before it gets dry.
