While users can replace their Q5’s washable filters, brush, charging cable, and dustbin, unlike Eufy (and iRobot), Roborock doesn’t offer replacement battery packs or motors. The Eureka E10S, the Roborock Q Revo, and the Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni can all lift their wet pads on rugs. The smart D5s Pro robot with upgraded sensors maps and creates a high-efficiency cleaning path for every room. While obstacle-avoidance technology has improved in recent years, don’t rely on your robot to avoid getting tangled up in cords, toys, and socks.

While it supports multiple floor maps, I found I had to move the base station each time I changed floors (no mean feat, as it’s heavy) because the robot gets confused without it — and it needs a place to pop off its pads. Before you check out, take a moment to check for coupons, and you'll save even more on robot aspirator.

It sweeps, vacuums and mops your floors simply and efficiently in a single run to bring out the spotless shine. It has a small removable mopping reservoir for when there are dirty paws on the floors, but its main job is to suck up dirt and pet hair, and it does very well at both. Both apps allow you to block off areas, but only the Q Revo’s features a convenient manual remote control and a “Pin n Go” function, for sending the bot back to spots it may have missed. You have to manually fill and attach the mop reservoir and empty the bin when it mops — as it only self-empties in vacuum mode, and it can only avoid larger objects.

It can map and has virtual keep-out zones but doesn’t avoid obstacles like shoes, so you have to clean up your clutter.If you don’t mind picking up smaller clutter, both of these are more affordable alternatives, but they have smaller water tanks, so they require more hands-on time. We usually accept T/T payment terms, but other payment terms also can be accepted after we both confirmed.

The good news is that there are a lot of options, and whether you have a 3,000-square-foot home and three shaggy dogs or a small, stylish apartment you share with a goldfish, there’s a robot vacuum to suit your needs.

The Eufy Clean app is very easy to use, and the lidar-powered mapping was fast and accurate, allowing for room-specific cleaning, zone cleaning, and customized cleaning. Sweeva will not be stopped by small steps or thick rugs with its crossing capability up to 20mm height. Replace filters and side brushes a few times per year, the brush roll about once a year, and the battery (if available) as needed. It doesn’t connect to an app, but it does come with a remote control for scheduling it to clean and directing it to missed spots.

The auto-empty dock was also prone to clogging, and its removable panel to access the bin was very fiddly. Bottom cleaning experts, ultra-thin fuselage can be just-right' to clean the bottom of the home Home Cleaner. Guide author Sabine Heinlein has had her Eufy 11S (the predecessor of the Eufy 11S Max) for almost four years and had to replace its battery only recently. This relatively inexpensive vacuum has a huge 770ml bin on board, along with dual rubber brushes that are better at getting pet hair out of rugs than single brushes. It works as a standalone vacuum or pairs with an auto-empty dock, but you must manually fill its (sizable) water tank.Note that you need to connect your bot to Wi-Fi if you want to use features like smart mapping or voice control. Another nice-to-have feature, AI-powered obstacle avoidance helps your robot “intelligently” avoid clutter (and a potential poop apocalypse if it encounters pet waste).
