  • Two-hour battery life
  • Only three inches tall
  • Easy maintenance

Best cheap hybrid

A basic option to test out that Swiffer-less life, especially in homes with few rugs to worry about.

The Good

  • Dual side brushes pick up a lot
  • Same suction power as high-end Roomba and Roborock
  • Frequently on sale for under $200
  • Super low profile

  • Doesn't stop mopping on rugs/carpet
  • Patchy WiFi and Alexa integration

The Bottom Line

This hybrid poses little threat to your wallet and your rugs — as long as you remember boundary strips.
Pros & Cons

We all know at least one person who claims a robot vacuum has changed their life. They're not lying. There's really something to be said for always knowing your floors are clean. Plus, some people simply detest vacuuming.

Just like all tissues are called "Kleenex," and all bandages "Band-aids," robot vacuums and Roomba have become interchangeable. But we're here to put some respect on the other names in the robot vacuum game.

Given Roomba-maker iRobot's domination of the robot vacuum market since 2002, this assumption made sense for a while. Roombas have been around longer than the movie Holes and came out less than a year after Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake stepped out in that all-denim ensemble(opens in a new tab).

But the first robotic vacuum wasn't even an iRobot brainchild. iRobot may be the brand to credit for making robot vacuums attainable for mainstream households, but Swedish brand Electrolux technically introduced the first robot vac in 1996. iRobot continues its reign as one of the best, but it wasn't the first — and isn't the last either. (Even now that it's been acquired by Amazon.)

Roborock, Shark, and Eufy have entered the chat.

Are robot vacuums worth it?

The crisp control of an upright Dyson vacuum comes with its own type of buzz. But if you're not one to classify cleaning as cathartic, a robot vacuum could erase that huge, agonizing task off of your chore list.

But whether robot vacuums are worth it or not comes with a caveat: It can't be just any robot vacuum. A cheap robovac that acts drunk — scattering crumbs rather than sucking them up, bumping into walls, getting stuck on area rugs — is completely missing that convenience factor that draws people to robot vacs in the first place. We've gathered the best-reviewed models in general, but some extra criteria specific to your home can help narrow your options:

  • Suction power: A vacuum is the one purchase that you hope sucks a lot. Suction power is typically measured in Pascals (Pa), ranging between 600 Pa to 3,000 Pa in the ones on this list. Stronger suction will be needed to pick up heavier pieces of debris like pellet cat litter (be sure to set a barrier around Legos) and to pull patted-down pet hair from rugs.

  • Floor type: Expanding on the point above, carpeting and rugs require stronger suction than hard floors, as well as an extra-wide or self-cleaning brush roll to prevent hair from wrapping. Folks in homes with multiple floor types might consider a bigger, sturdier robovac with large wheels that can hoist itself over mats, rugs, and transitions from carpet to hard floors.

  • Automatic emptying: Because robot vacuums are typically under four inches tall, their onboard dust bins are also small — which means they frequently require emptying. (Dustbins fill up particularly quickly in homes with pets.) A self-emptying vacuum takes that job out of your hands, emptying itself into a larger dustbin in its charging dock. These larger bins can typically hold weeks of dirt without needing to be cleaned or dumped out.

  • Home layout: Every robot vacuum is equipped with sensors and drop detection. But if your home has lots of rooms, lots of turns, or lots of close-together furniture, you'll have fewer navigation issues with an advanced model that uses LiDAR to map exactly how your home is laid out, including labeling of specific rooms, mental notes of staircases and walls, and ability to deploy zone cleaning.

  • Low-profile furniture: No one should have to be scared about what's accumulated under their couch over the past year. A robot vacuum measuring three inches or less in height should be able to scoot under most low-hanging couches and beds.

  • Battery life and square footage: One of the main complaints people have about their robot vacuum is that it craps out in the middle of the floor. Larger spaces require more time to clean, and it all depends on how annoyed you'll be if it only finishes a few rooms at a time. Average run times for the list below range between 90 and 150 minutes, which translate to about 500 and 2,600 square feet covered on one charge. Some clock in up to 180 minutes on one charge.

  • App control: WiFi-enabled robot vacuums can be synced with a smartphone app to control scheduling, manual start, cleaning settings, as well as telling your vac to make its rounds when you're not home. Low-end models that don't connect to WiFi will usually come with a separate remote. If you're used to asking Alexa or Google to turn off the lights or tell you the weather, a model with voice integration will blend in nicely.

Robot vacuums and pet hair

Pet hair can straight-up clown a botvac without the right features. If your home is shedding heaven, a D-shaped vacuum could take some of the pressure off of you to find the spots where it collects. We can't scientifically back this, but we're pretty sure pet hair gets up and crawls into corners when we're not looking. A robot vacuum with a flat side can fit into those 90-degree angles and skim the edges of walls better than most circular bots can.

The next line of defense is a tangle-free brush roll. It's essentially an XL brush roll that prevents shedding remnants from getting wrapped up and tangled, likely having to be cut with scissors. Rubber trim or rubber fingers are a material that hair already doesn't like to stick to, but also works to kill static that may be pinning hair to a carpet.

A robot vac's filtration system is also an important consideration for homes with pets, as well as allergy sufferers in general. Vacuuming is bound to kick up dander, dust, and pollen into the air. A good filter captures that (HEPA filters catch the smallest particle) and makes sure it also makes its way into the dust bin. (All vacuums listed below have a HEPA filter unless noted otherwise in "The Bad" section.)

Roomba vs. Shark robot vacuums

In an unspoken sort of way, Roomba has been crowned as "the best" on the sole basis that it's the most established brand in the robot vacuum market. But Shark has the automatic advantage of being a brand that's hella established in the vacuum market as a whole, from stick vacuums to handheld ones, to ones with huge canisters.

But while Shark may be experts on suction power, brush rolls that don't tangle, and other things on the upright vacuum end, Roomba dominates the robot end. The maps created by a Roomba after it gets a sense of your home feature precision down to each room and the type of messes it typically sees. Shark's vacuums struggle to make reliable maps more often. Roombas also typically have better run time.

A general comparison between the two brands doesn't work so well. Like the Instant Pot vs. Ninja Foodi debate, Roomba has significantly more models to choose from at a range of prices and features that can be tailored to your needs. Shark's whole lineup is generally more budget-friendly than its most direct counterpart from Roomba. Shark offers self-emptying, a self-cleaning brushroll, and smart-home mapping for as low as $449.99, while iRobot's cheapest self-emptier starts at $599.99 (but goes as low as $399.99 during Black Friday). A few self-emptying Roombas topple that price, going as high as $1,099.99.

Whether iRobot, Shark, Roborock, or any other brand is the best at actual cleaning is pretty subjective. "Best" to someone with four dogs and lots of carpet may not mean "best" to someone with a huge house with stairs and 100% hardwood. At any rate, patience is required. Not even the best robot vacuum is guaranteed to not be a bumbling idiot on occasion.

Here are the best robot vacuums for any home and budget in 2023:

Best at avoiding small obstacles
Credit: irobot /. mashable photo composite
Specs
  • Battery life: 90 minutes
  • Specific room targeting: Yes
  • Virtual boundaries: Yes
  • Height: 3.4 inches

The j7+ uses a new PrecisionVision Navigation camera that helps it to avoid small (less than four inches) obstacles that are typically blind spots for robot vacuums. It's the botvac to get if you're nervous about pet waste being smeared or about a pointy Lego being dragged across the floor. The meticulous eye for its surroundings also assists in navigating on dark floors.

The j7+ showcases other iRobot glow-ups, too. It empties debris into a more compact auto-empty dock without sacrificing the 60-day capacity. The revitalized iRobot Genius app whips up custom cleaning suggestions based on earlier rounds, like offering to schedule a kitchen cleaning after dinner each night.

Best for hard floors

Specs
  • Battery life: 180 minutes
  • Specific room targeting: Yes
  • Virtual boundaries: Yes
  • Height: 3.8 inches

Read our full review on the Roborock S7.

The mopping feature on many self-proclaimed hybrids doesn't do much more than push water around. Roborock's newest 2-in-1 is a meticulous beast on both wet and dry accounts. With Roborock's August 2021 drop of its auto-empty dock, the S7 now poses a threat to iRobot's Braava Jets and its line of self-emptying vacuums, which don't mop.

The S7 is gentle yet on hardwood, linoleum, and tile, seamlessly switching gears to rugs and carpets. Laser scale sensors scan each room to adapt the route accordingly, adjusting suction for large pieces like cereal or small ones like salt. The mopping feature is just as attentive to soft floors, lifting the entire vacuum off of the surface to avoid a soaked rug.

Editor's note: Product information has been synthesized from a review previously published on Mashable.

  • Height: 3.5 inches

Read our full review on the Roomba s9+.

A robot vacuum that rivals a MacBook Pro in price has some serious criteria to cover, and the s9+ crushes it. New additions like a slower side brush that won't scatter debris make it the best Roomba for edge cleaning, but iRobot's first D-shaped can do much more than suck the dust bunnies out of corners.

Both the s9+ and i7+ (the next-best Roomba) have automatic dirt disposal and a Clean Base that holds up to 60 days of debris. The s9+ may fill up faster, but that's just because it's raking in significantly more floor gunk. Boosted suction power (more than the i7+ and the new j7+, improved air flow, and wider dual rubber brushes take on medium-pile carpets, hard floor, and pet hair without tangling. Leave it to the s9+ to remember your home's layout, clean in neat rows, and retreat to its base after two hours of uninterrupted cleaning.

Best budget vacuum with LiDAR
Credit: Wyze / Mashable photo composite
Specs
  • Battery life: 110 minutes
  • Specific room targeting: Yes
  • Virtual boundaries: Yes
  • Height: 3.7 inches

The Wyze Robot Vacuum and its raised LiDAR scanner have a similar vibe to one of our pricier faves, the Roborock S7. The mere presence of that smart mapping lookout is more than the cheapest Roombas can say.

This is what unlocks the ability to send the vac to specific rooms — one of the most coveted features in the robot vacuum market as of late. Laser pointers (2,016 every second, to be exact) cast by that spinning tower allow the Wyze vacuum to generate an in-app map of your home's floor plan, where you can label each area and draw virtual boundaries.

Cheapest reliable Roomba
Credit: irobot / mashable photo composite
Specs
  • Battery life: 90 minutes
  • Specific room targeting: No
  • Virtual boundaries: No
  • Height: 3.6 inches

The 692's integration of a mobile app makes it the obvious choice for anyone who would prefer to schedule cleanings when they're away.

iRobot's suite of sensors handle surface changes with ease and can be trusted not to eat scattered toys or low-hanging curtains. This Roomba's cleaning gets more methodical over time, and seeks out high-traffic areas with Dirt Detect. The 692 takes on a more minimalist design — it's objectively sleeker than the Roomba 675, which was the previous (now discontinued) choice for this category.

Best mid-range self-emptier with LiDAR
Credit: Roborock / Mashable photo composite
Specs
  • Battery life: 180 minutes
  • Specific room targeting: Yes
  • Virtual boundaries: Yes
  • Height: 3.8 inches

Roborock's newest series makes it hard to justify going fully premium. The Q5+ acts as a buffer price-wise compared to the brand's pricey S7+ and S7 MaxV Ultra, and could be snagged for a mere $599.99 during its very first sale.

The Q5+ hits in all the right places: Allegedly clocking 2,700 Pa in suction power, it's one of the most powerful vacs in this list (surpassing the Roombas). Its compact dock deals with its own debris for seven weeks at a time, rivaling the 45-day capacity of Shark's XL bin. It navigates via a LiDAR-created 2D or 3D map of your home. Downsides, which are minuscule irks at this price, include eating shag rugs and cords, but you can use the app to set a no-go zone.

Hybrid with best navigation
Credit: iRobot
Specs
  • Battery life: 90 minutes
  • Specific room targeting: Yes
  • Virtual boundaries: Yes
  • Height: 3.4 inches flat, around 3.6 inches with mop raised

Finally, the robot vacuum that's least likely to eat your phone charger is now also the least likely to soak your carpet. In Oct. 2022, iRobot announced a mopping version of its smartest, the j7+ — the first true hybrid Roomba. The Combo j7+ looks nearly identical to the original, but with the addition of what looks like the spoiler on a sports car. That's the retractable mop.

iRobot's PrecisionNavigation allow the j7+ to perceive obstacles that other robot vacuums plow right into. Those smarts extend to sensing carpet in mop mode, too: Instead of letting the mop hover and risking drips, the Combo j7+ lifts its mop on top of the vacuum itself.

Unfortunately, unlike some similarly-priced premium vacs from Roborock or Ecovacs that wash their own mopping pads, you'll be responsible for your Roomba not dragging dirty pads around.

Best budget hybrid
Credit: Yeedi / Mashable Photo Composite
Specs
  • Battery life: Up to 200 minutes
  • Specific room targeting: Yes
  • Virtual boundaries: Yes
  • Height: 3.1 inches

Autonomous wet and dry cleaning plus auto-emptying is typically a pricey checklist, but this Yeedi makes the whole process hands-free for less than $400 on sale (which it almost always is).

The presence of room mapping is also impressive at such a practical price point, despite undercooked quirks like only having the capacity to hold a map of one story at a time. The shaky navigation isn't so annoying when you can still enjoy the convenience of targeting specific rooms and setting virtual boundaries in the app.

Best under 3 inches
Credit: eufy / mashable photo composite
Specs
  • Battery life: 100 minutes
  • Specific room targeting: No
  • Virtual boundaries: No
  • Height: 2.9 inches

Nuisances like noise level or low profile furniture are magnified in confined spaces when a robot vacuum is bumping around. The Eufy Robovac 15C Max is an ideal fit for apartments, where it can slide under space-saving furniture that blocks vacuums over three inches tall.

The bare bones vacuum is a step up from our previous Eufy recommendation, the 11s. Its 2,000 Pa of suction (compared to 1300Pa from the 11s) is great on hard floors and as sufficient on carpet as one could ask for from a budget vac. There's no room scanning tech, so its bobbling cleaning path isn't overly methodical. But unlike the 11s, you'll be able to control the 15C Max through the app (or your voice) to set custom cleaning schedules or adjust suction.

Best self-emptier under $500
Credit: Shark / Mashable photo composite
Specs
  • Battery life: 90 minutes
  • Specific room targeting: No
  • Virtual boundaries: No
  • Height: 3.5 inches

This mid-range Shark checks the basic boxes and gets you off the hook from emptying a dustbin for a month or two at a time. It provides methodical S-shaped coverage of your home, being sure to cover every inch — though it's known to repeat certain spots on occasion.

The suction doesn't necessarily wow, but doesn't disappoint, either. It won't dig into carpet fibers like a premium vac, but surface-level debris on hard floors and carpet are typically scooped up on the first run. A self-cleaning brushroll is particularly helpful for carpets topped with a layer of shedding.

Budget pick

  • Battery life: 100 minutes
  • Specific room targeting: No
  • Virtual boundaries: No
  • Height: 3 inches

Read our full review of the ILIFE V3s Pro.

Robot vacuums get a rep for being strictly for people with extra cash. Granted, some cheap ones do nothing more than zig-zag and push crumbs around — but for less than $160, the ILIFE V3s Pro is the fighter to choose if you just want to walk on your hard floors barefoot in peace.

Your experience with the V3s Pro depends on managed expectations. Hoping for features like fluffy carpet-mauling suction and an app that zeroes in on specific rooms will leave you bummed. But if you go into it expecting the precision of a cheap vacuum, you'll be wowed. The V3 puts in work on hardwood, sniffing out minuscule debris like pet hair and kitty litter that's basically dust. It's sweeping that rivals most high-end models.

Most affordable corner cleaning
Credit: neato / mashable photo composite
Specs
  • Battery life: 120 minutes
  • Specific room targeting: Yes
  • Virtual boundaries: Yes
  • Height: 3.9 inches

D-shaped vacuums were Neato's thing far before Roomba caught word of that diligent edge cleaning. Amidst the discontinued D7 and pricey (and mediocre) D8, the Neato Botvac D6 oozes with value. Compared to the similarly-shaped Roomba s9+, the D6 won't empty its own small dust bin — but won't empty your wallet, either.

For up to two hours at a time, the D6 uses laser navigation to map out cleaning sessions and chug along in straight lines, which can be mediated by no-go boundaries. Additionally, the phone app can be used to create floor maps for each story or pick specific spots, like along kitchen cabinets.

Best cheap hybrid
Credit: coredy / mashable photo composite
Specs
  • Battery life: 120 minutes
  • Specific room targeting: No
  • Virtual boundaries: No
  • Height: 2.7 inches

If you're not one to die on the Swiffer Wet Jet hill, finding a robot vacuum that also mops could doubly simplify your cleaning routine. Coredy's R750 Hybrid model makes up for its lack of brand recognition with nearly 4,000 five star reviews on Amazon.

In vacuuming mode, the R750 uses dual side brushes to cover a wide path or sweep debris under furniture. Coredy's Boost-Intellect technology automatically adjusts suction levels based on where it's cleaning, and it's strong enough for debris and light layers of hair. In mopping mode, the R750 isn't so meticulous with floor type. Though it general controls water well, it won't stop mopping when crossing a rug or carpet. The boundary strips will be your friend.
