20 Best Robot Vacuum Cleaners

The RV-R350 Robotic Vacuum Cleaner can be a great home helper for the budget shopper. The model is quite simple, it is better not to count on first-class navigation and super efficiency, but it is more than suitable for daily cleaning. It provides 4 modes of operation: independent construction of the trajectory, local cleaning of contaminated areas, cleaning corners and zigzag movement. They are selected by pressing a button on the case.

Users characterize the device on the positive side. It is praised for its excellent performance on various surfaces, compact size, light indication and wet cleaning functions. Although there are few obvious disadvantages, you should be prepared for them. So, the vacuum cleaner requires manual recharging from the mains - it is not capable of charging on the base, it is equipped with a very small 220 ml dust collector and a Ni-MH battery with a significant decrease in capacity after 300 cycles.

BBK BV3521 is the next representative of inexpensive, but very successful vacuum cleaners that can take on the duties of dry and wet cleaning of the house and apartment. The most important thing is that it does not require any physical and mental effort, and the family budget is not particularly ruinous. The model can only be controlled from the remote control. The operation can be carried out in six modes, each of which allows you to improve the final result.

Everything you need for work is supplied with the robot: a power adapter and a docking station (not all budget devices are equipped with it “out of the box”), a remote control, a HEPA filter, a wet cleaning unit, side brushes, care accessories. Users confirm the operating and charging time of the device, stated in the technical specifications - 90 and 240 minutes, respectively, but they blame the small volume (only 350 ml) of the container for collected garbage. Nevertheless, in all stores the device still remains in the TOP of sales.

The main difference and one of the reasons for getting into the TOP of the robotic vacuum cleaner 004 M-series is its parameters. The height of the device is only 7.4 cm, which allows you to walk with cleaning in all hard-to-reach places. The model is ideal for rooms up to 50 square meters. m. The process lasts about 40 minutes - the battery capacity is also calculated for this time.

In the reviews, the device is called simple, like the Zhiguli - for some users it has been working for many years, but it has not become worse. An ideal gift for beloved grandmothers and elderly parents - inexpensive and very easy to manage and care for. How to charge it, how to clean it - all this is intuitive even without studying the instructions. There are, of course, disadvantages: you need to regularly check the bin, since there is no full indicator, and connect the robot to the charging adapter yourself - it does not do this automatically. In general, the functions are minimal, but for such a price it is quite acceptable.

The model is relatively new, 2018, but initially pleases buyers with affordable prices. The function of wet cleaning is not provided in the robot, but it "knows how" to clean all types of flooring - from linoleum to carpet. Thanks to modern equipment with sensors, the vacuum cleaner masterfully maneuvers on the floor and cleans it thoroughly, without gaps.

Among the disadvantages of the unit, the absence of a laser rangefinder and a motion limiter (the so-called virtual wall) should be noted - this function is especially important for owners of large multi-level houses and apartments.Someone may be upset by the ability to control only from the buttons on the case or from a smartphone - the manufacturer removed the remote control from the kit. But still, there are much more advantages: there is an attractive price, and an automatic database search, and programming by day of the week. In general, the device, though inexpensive, but with functionality and characteristics at a very decent level.

The small-sized, but very solid-looking model of the iBoto Aqua V715B vacuum cleaner has a high suction power and the presence of several layers of filters: mesh, foam and fine filtration. This solution does not give dust particles a single chance to get back into the air, so this robot is fully responsible for cleanliness. Moreover, instead of a dust tank, you can install an aquabox in its body so that the device can perform wet cleaning.

The design provides for several types of sensors: recognition of contaminated areas, detection of obstacles and height difference. They help the device successfully navigate in space, minimize falls and collisions with objects, and effectively clean surfaces in accordance with the level of contamination. There are a lot of reviews on the model: autonomy is indicated among the pluses (one charge is enough for a 2-room apartment), of the minuses is the soiledness of the top panel.

Xiaomi produces such a large range of consumer electronics that their products can be found in almost any category. Here and in the list of robotic vacuum cleaners, the Chinese managed to be noted. The model looks great - white matte plastic, a pair of bright inserts. Pretty, but not very practical. The base station is made in the same style. The robot will not have to drive into it very often, since the operating time without recharging reaches 150 minutes, which is confirmed by numerous positive customer reviews.

Cleans Mi Robot Vacuum perfectly. Thanks to the use of an infrared scanning laser rangefinder, the device can detect an obstacle at a distance of up to 6 meters, which, together with the room mapping system, provides the maximum cleaning area without collisions with furniture or walls. By the way, if necessary, the map can be corrected in the official application. If you cope with the Chinese language, since there is no Russian. In it, you can also select operating modes, set the maximum power level and see the battery level.

There is a bronze medalist and disadvantages. Firstly, the virtual wall is made in the form of a magnetic tape, which also needs to be purchased separately. The dimensions are small (width 25 mm, thickness 2 mm), but it is difficult to call the solution elegant. Secondly, the already mentioned application. To the lack of the Russian language, frequent loss of communication with the cloud service is added, which is why it is not always possible to control the vacuum cleaner.

The second place in the top "state employees" is deservedly occupied by the Kitfort KT-519 robot vacuum cleaner.In terms of equipment and functionality, this is the best device in its price segment. The robot boasts a thoughtful design, which is made in a round, light body without protruding parts. Operating time record for inexpensive automatic vacuum cleaners – 150 minutes. This figure is achieved thanks to a 2600 mAh Li-Ion battery, which, unlike NiMH batteries, can be recharged at any convenient time.

Kitfort KT-519 can collect dust by independently changing the movement algorithm, moving in a spiral, along walls or in a zigzag. When stuck, the device beeps and automatically returns to the base to charge the battery.

The clear benefits, according to user reviews, include:

• quiet work;
• high permeability;
• good equipment for a budget robot;
• long battery life;
• nice design;
• convenient dust collector;
• easy cleaning of the main brush;
• effective side brushes.

In the HOBOT line, the Legee 669 model is in the TOP of the most advanced. It is a hybrid of a vacuum cleaner with a polisher and is designed to perform all types of cleaning - wet, dry, polishing, rubbing stains, etc. The device is completely autonomous. It is enough to fill in a special tank with water, and he will take care of all the trouble to restore cleanliness. The washing process is carried out according to a patented technology, which provides for the imitation of hand movements due to the robot making 10 oscillations per second.

No matter how well the cleaning process is worked out, without a well-functioning navigation system, the robot will simply circle senselessly, rubbing the surface to a shine in one place and leaving the dirt untouched in another. In HOBOT Legee 669, this moment is thought out to the smallest detail. An advanced set of sensors is built into its body: a gyroscope, a rotation angle sensor, a laser, an electronic compass.With their help, the vacuum cleaner builds an electronic map of the room, and the risk that he gets lost or forgets something is excluded.

iClebo Arte – one of the most popular models of robotic vacuum cleaners. Honorable third place in our top. Many reviews have been written about iClebo Arte and thousands of reviews have been left in Runet. Why iClebo Arte is so loved:

• A very good Li-Ion battery, due to which the vacuum cleaner is able to work up to 180 minutes. At the same time, it charges in just 90 minutes. For 30 - 40 thousand rubles. you will not find models with such an indicator.
• Hthe presence of a camera and the ability to build a map of the premises – important advantages of this robot in its price segment.
• The noise level is only 55 dB. We can say that he only "whispers" during work.
• Complete with the device you will find nozzles for wet wiping the floor with a napkin, as well as electric brushes.
• Light weight - only 2.8 kg. The mass of many competitors exceeds 4 kg.

Inexpensive (by the standards of functional robots) the device has many nice features, such as the ability to move in a spiral, zigzag, cleaning time calculation, timer, display, remote control. Users in the reviews among the advantages note the ease of maintenance of the container and filter, the ability of equipment to easily bypass obstacles.

Philips appliances do not get tired of winning more and more new fans, offering inexpensive models with modern functionality.In support of this fact, let's take the robot vacuum cleaner FC8822 as an example. It is unique in that it uses the most advanced surface cleaning technology, consisting of 3 stages:

1. Two side brushes with long bristles sweep debris closer to the body.
2. Powerful suction (1.8 MPa in turbo mode) captures dust from all sides.
3. Removable cloth cleans the floor from debris.

Thanks to the 27 cm TriActiv XL cleaning nozzle, the device cleans a strip of 30 cm in one pass, so the cleaning lasts almost twice as fast. Another interesting "trick" is the location of the robot in the house by clapping hands. In addition, the device is equipped with six IR sensors that can detect obstacles in a timely manner, as well as a virtual wall system, i.e. the ability to avoid specified boundaries.

The model belongs to the manufacturer's most advanced series of robot vacuum cleaners, which uses smart technologies that give not only joyful emotions, but also high-quality results. Among the main advantages of the device are its ability to work on a single charge for up to 230 minutes without interruption, a new generation brushless low-noise motor with high suction potential, a powerful Li-Ion battery with a capacity of 2600 mAh, and convenient indication.

Owners have 7 cleaning programs up to 260 sq. m area.Intelligently set mode, with smart automatic water supply, without building a route or according to a schedule, at maximum power, to remove heavy dirt or individual stains - all these programs help to rationally use the capabilities of a useful device to achieve perfect cleanliness in the house. The leader of the top in its price category performs dry and wet cleaning quickly, without re-moving along the already passed trajectory. Its equipment includes a cyclonic filter and a fine filter, side brushes and a turbo brush, 10 pairs of sensors, a shock-absorbing bumper, a built-in clock, a timer, and a remote control. The 3-stage filtration system guarantees always fresh indoor air.

The square body of the unit and the side brushes extended by 70 mm provide excellent cleaning of the room from debris in the corners. The vacuum cleaner is equipped with an inverter motor, in the durability of which the company is so confident that it provides a 10-year warranty. This is an important point, because, as practice shows, in robotic vacuum cleaners, if anything breaks first, it is the drive.

Numerous sensors located along the perimeter of the case form the so-called. digital bumper and minimize collisions with objects in the path. A special ultrasonic sensor is responsible for the sharpness of the “vision” of the device, so that it is able to recognize even glass obstacles and stop in time in front of them.The Dual Eye 2.0 system also plays its role, due to which the robot determines its location, builds routes and remembers them, regardless of the degree of illumination.

The flagship representative of robotic vacuum cleaners from Okami went on sale a little over a month ago and has already undergone the closest evaluation by experts and potential buyers. And there are a lot of interesting things in the new product - from premium-class electronic filling to technical characteristics, for example, an unprecedented suction power of 2500 Pa.

This robot is also surprising with the presence of a progressive technology for processing information about surrounding objects called lidar. Thanks to it, the device is perfectly oriented in space and passes the entire available area during dry and wet cleaning. Optionally, a certified UV lamp is installed in it, which helps to decontaminate the floor along the way. To sum up, the model is clearly aiming for the TOP of the best new products of this year. There are no special shortcomings in it, the only thing that for this money I would like to get control through a voice assistant.

This household appliances from a well-known brand will take care of all the concerns about high-quality cleaning of the premises, having previously drawn up its map. This option optimizes the route and speeds up the work. Additionally, there is a quick cleaning mode, which brings even more positive emotions.Optical sensors will protect the device and surrounding objects from accidental collisions. And the presence of a special brush in the kit will facilitate the cleaning of the delicate area near the baseboards.

All the necessary information about the operation of the device is visible on the display, which is located in the upper part of the case and is equipped with a backlight. Therefore, it is convenient to use the robot even in low light conditions. Thanks to the timer, the vacuum cleaner can turn on and work at a set time even in your absence. The day-of-the-week programming function gives you even more options. The disadvantages of the model include:

• relatively short duration of work (up to 60 minutes) with long-term recharging of 240 minutes;
• dust container capacity 300 ml;
• noise 72 dB;
• weight 4 kg.

The top gold medalist attracts attention with a stylish design in several colors, a balanced weight (3.1 kg) and a complete set, as well as excellent functionality and ease of use. At the same time, a record short time is spent on charging the device - 180 minutes. The model is designed not only for dry cleaning, collecting liquids, but is also capable of wiping the floors with the included microfiber cloth. If necessary (very dirty places, long carpet pile), you can set the turbo mode, which provides increased suction power.

Another useful option is the self-mapping of the room, as a result of which no hard-to-reach corner will be left without attention of 35 optical sensors. The presence of a magnetic tape allows, if desired, to limit the cleaning area.During operation, the speed of the vacuum cleaner reaches up to 21 m/min, which is considered a good indicator. After 80 minutes of operation, the robot is automatically sent to the station for recharging.

Among the advantages of the design, consumer reviews list a backlit display, a timer, and a built-in clock. 5-stage filtration is another reason to purchase this device. Among the shortcomings, when using some firmware, resetting the route traveled when restarting work, for example, after a jam, is called when using some firmware.

With the advent of the LG robot vacuum cleaner in the TOP version of the CordZero R9 MASTER, cleaning comes down to a couple of settings on your smartphone and pressing one button. On board the unit there is an intelligent router program, the function of patrolling and viewing the premises using a 3D camera, a cleaning mode according to a given schedule, keeping a diary, self-learning and self-diagnosis of faults.

The hardware of the device is also impressive. The high-speed Smart Inverter Motor is responsible for high efficiency. Using a technology that LG has been developing for several years, it forms air currents in a certain way, so that dust is captured without residue. A 5-stage filter is used to capture and settle inside the dust collector. The robot is quite massive and for maximum performance on a single charge, it is equipped with a battery with a capacity of 5200 mAh.

The dark body and laconic design do not attract much attention, but the functionality fully meets the requirements for dry and wet cleaning. This model not only sets the route of movement, but, according to the idea of ​​​​engineers, is able to resume it from an interrupted place after recharging. Although in practice the latter option suffers from forgetfulness, which causes criticism from the owners of equipment. The provided magnetic tape allows you to limit the work area for the device. Without recharging, the operating cycle is maximum 120 minutes. After an independent departure to the base, the robot is charged with energy for 180 minutes, but then it does not automatically start, it waits for manual activation.

In the process of cleaning the floor surface, to prevent collision with obstacles, the structure is equipped with infrared / ultrasonic sensors, sound indication, which will notify you of the body getting stuck. An audible signal also occurs when the battery is low. Negative emotions in the reviews are caused by a small water tank.

A truly smart robot designed for a conditionally unlimited cleaning area. He divides the dimensions of the space into sections and consistently works on them, becomes as necessary for charging and purposefully returns to the place where he stopped. The abundance of sensors allows the device to correctly track its dimensions in relation to obstacles and successfully build a route map.There is absolutely no garbage left after it, since one of the most powerful suction systems is built into the device (120 W versus 20-50 W for most other models).

The filtration system also plays a significant role in the quality of cleaning. In particular, the Ultra Performance pleated filter (2 spare pieces included) is capable of retaining microparticles as small as 0.3 µm. Thus, the vacuum cleaner becomes a reliable protection for the house from potential allergens. It is controlled through a mobile application and voice assistants Amazon Alexa, Google Home and Neato Chatbot.

As befits a premium-level technique, the Miele SLQL0 30 robot vacuum cleaner is impeccable in almost everything. Its appearance is impressive at first sight - the ovoid shape looks very good in combination with the display and windows with sensors. An important design feature is the location of the side wheels at an angle, which allows you to overcome obstacles up to 2 cm in height. Needless to say, the manufacturer took care of its exceptional ability to remove even the smallest dust particles.

The device is literally crammed with electronics: a stereo camera, IR illumination under it, a Mobile Control monitoring system, 7 optical sensors on the front panel and 3 more at the bottom. No impacts on interior items - the vacuum cleaner gently approaches them and cleans them in the immediate vicinity. In reviews and reviews about the model, there are extremely positive opinions, it is even used as a baby monitor to monitor small children or pets.
