robot vacuums uk robotvacuummops hoover will vacuum and mop without needing your attention, and leaves your floors spotless. Its price is surprisingly low and top-of-the-line features (such as dirt detection) are a plus. Check your robot's brushes regularly for tangled debris and hair. Wash them if needed. Some models will automatically empty their dust bin on board into a larger one at the base, which decreases the amount of fine dust that is released into the air. 1. Roomba Q5 pro The Q5 Pro, and its more expensive cousin the Q7 Max Series are among the most powerful robotic vacuums we've examined. They feature top-of-the-line motors that can generate up to 5,500 Pascals of suction force. And, like other top iRobot models (including the top pick) they employ smart mapping technology to create precise floor plans and eliminate household obstacles such as cords and furniture legs. They also feature carpet boost that increases the robot's power when it sees the presence of dirt on the carpet to get it cleaned up quickly. The Q5 and Q7 Max Series both scored extremely well in our tests on bare floors, and they are particularly adept in cleaning hair from dogs. However, they do have some flaws that prevent them from being our top pick. One of them is that the Q5's navigation system does not feature AI-powered obstacle avoidance technology and is therefore prone to get caught up in shoes and socks, and is unable to navigate tightly packed rooms very efficiently in our tests. It doesn't also have a camera that can see around corners. Still, it's very good to consider, particularly if you're looking to save money on a Roomba from iRobot and have a mostly bare-floor home or office. Plus, it's very quiet and you can use it while you're at work, or at school. It lacks the edge-to-edge bare floor vacuuming offered in the more expensive iRobot Roomba X30. It's also less effective at mopping, using disposable wet wipes, which don't stick on well and aren't able to handle dried-on debris. The Q5 comes with a self-emptying cradle, however. If you're in need of it clean the mopping pad, it can be changed for one that is wet in just a few just a few seconds. 2. iRobot Roomba The iRobot Roomba X30 packs impressive vacuuming and mopping capabilities into a compact, sleek package. Its nimble navigation and intelligent cleaning maps make it quick to clean and efficient in tackling larger particles like pet hair. It also has a self-emptying dustbin with powerful suction and support for virtual boundaries. It's the best robot hoover for carpets, but it's not as effective as some rivals in deep cleaning. This highly efficient mop and vacuum combo uses advanced sensor technology to avoid obstacles and pet waste and it will learn your home's layout over time to ensure more efficient cleaning. The app lets you modify zones and alter the cleaning schedule. Its battery life is average compared to similar models. If the X30 Ultra is in a carpeted space, you can tell it to pull back and extend its mop. This will help prevent cross contamination. Its flex arm can also be used to reach beneath furniture that is low and along baseboards. It doesn't offer the same level of washboard performance as our other Editors' Choice picks, the Ecovacs Deebot Ozmo N8 Pro+ and the iRobot Combo j9+. During tests during testing, the X30 Ultra was the fastest robot vacuum/mop to complete the entire house with the battery at 66 percent left. It did a great cleaning job on a variety of rooms and floors with various flooring types including certain area rugs. Its obstacle detection was superb and it stayed clear of fake dog turds, socks, shoes, and bundles of cables. It's more expensive than iRobot Combo v9+ or iRobot Roomba j9+ but it has superior suction and an onboard bin that is automatically empty into the base. It also supports voice commands through Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. It can also clean the floor even after it vacuums. This is a feature that we haven't seen on other robot vacuum/mop combination. 3. IRobot Roomba X40 With a sleek, circular design that looks more like a normal Roomba than the competitors' compact models This robot vacuum and mop combo is one of the most attractive designs in our tests. The latest model from iRobot is its most advanced, with advanced features including Enhanced Dirt Detection Technology as well as future compatibility with Matter (another company's robot that can wash its own mop pads). It's the only robot vacuum/mop that has an exemplary 10/10 in our evaluations thanks to a blend of high-tech sensors, including cameras, a structured lighting system, and multiple lasers. The X40 Ultra was the only robot we tested that could fill and empty its basestation on its own. It also boasted a suction of 12,000Pa and self-cleaning mops. As with other iRobot models, the X40 is easy to use, offering an intuitive mobile app interface and integration with Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit as well as Google Assistant. The only issue is that the X40 is still a loud unit. This can be a problem in mornings prior to work or at night when you are trying to sleep. It's also a bit expensive, although it's not as pricey as the Ecovacs X2 Omni or Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra Both of which are equally powerful and better-looking. It's a dual-purpose vacuum that's extremely powerful however, it's more expensive and make more noise. iRobot L20 Ultra The L20 Ultra is the top-of-the high-end robot mop and vacuum. It comes with a variety of advanced features that will make you forget about your chores. Like Ecovacs range-topping X2 Omni and Roborock's S8 Pro Ultra, the L20 is designed to be a hands-off cleaning machine that can take the care of vacuuming and mopping, with a multifunction dock that automatically empties the vacuum's dust bin, fills its water tank, washes and dries its mop pads. The smart robot makes use of LIDAR and structured lighting to map out floor plans and detect obstacles. It can navigate more efficiently than its premium competitors. It also comes with a front-mounted camera that can detect hazards in real-time however this was not 100% reliable in our tests and was sometimes confused with obstructions or power cords. The vacuum cleaner comes with an maximum suction of 7,000 Pascals which is more than enough to do the job. It also features “Intelligent Dirt Detection”, which regulates how hard the vacuum works and adjusts the frequency of cleaning for various areas of the house in accordance with the degree of dirt they tend to be. For bigger homes it's worth looking for one that has zone or spot cleaning modes that let you tell the robot to clean one particular area of your home using the app or via voice commands. A stair mode can be useful if you have a number of furniture. For families that are busy, a recharge feature and resume feature that permits your robot vacuum to continue from where it left off could be very beneficial. 5. iRobot Roomba RX3 The RX3 is a more efficient cleaner than you would expect from its price tag. It does a stellar job vacuuming, picking up 55% of the debris that was found in our tests (it was second only to the Roomba Q5 Pro). It also mopses using a single pad and a reciprocating movement that is more efficient than most of the robot mop cleaners that we've tested. It's also highly self-sufficient, with a full-featured app and a self emptying base that can be washed. The iRobot application is designed to guide you through an exercise in mapping that collects data on your floorplan and any “no go” areas you've marked on the map. You can use it to create cleaning schedules, plan a spot clean or to sort out your rooms with the most dirt for better performance. The app has a range of features, including seasonal suggestions, custom mapping and advanced cleaning settings. It can also reach corners and under furniture more easily because its shape is more rectangular. It has a powerful 8,000 Pascal suction as well as sophisticated combs that remove pet hair. It also has the ability to create a spot-clean that intensely cleans a localized area. The Miele Scout RX3 Home Vision HD is a more sleek and cheaper alternative to the iRobot Roomba. It's got a more attractive, Dolce & Gabbana-esque design and its twin cameras resemble cute eyes. It does a good job vacuuming, but is more prone to getting caught on low thresholds and is noisier than the other top robotic vacuums we've tried. It also has a less intuitive app and a small base station that isn't able to double as an emptying bin.
